#theres a sidewalk to a dorm that forces rolling aid users to DOUBLE the trip up the walk
Text
I'm not afraid of becoming disabled for vanity reasons.
I'm afraid because this world isn't built for disabled people.
I'll be confined to my home because of the lack of public transit. Or I'll be stuck having to trust people to go out of their way to assist me.
Airplanes will destroy my expensive equipment.
I might not be able to use public restrooms.
There's nothing wrong with disability itself...
It's the world around us. It's so hostile.
#i dont even think pregnant people have easy access to things#then theres the elderly#like#at my university alone there aren't any reasonably placed handicapped parking spots#wheelchair users need to miss an entire class just to find a bathroom in most buildings#its near impossible to access sidewalks#theres a sidewalk to a dorm that forces rolling aid users to DOUBLE the trip up the walk#because the path doubles back on itself before you can reach the slope that allows you to go anywhere else#i have strong feelings about this#ableism#is absolute bullshit#and it upsets me that disabled people are not thought about until accessibility effects someone who can do something about it#im really sorry#my only personal hangup about becoming disabled is literally just the fear of not being able to do anything l#isnt that irrational?#im afraid of being stuck at home#unable to live independently#i would have to shell out mountains of money for aides#and then#theres the possibility that i wont have any money to live on#im angry#i hate it#i need to do better
