Neurotypical people will tell you about how they can see auras and talk to ghosts but the second you mention you have ADHD they’re like “I’m pretty sure that doesn’t exist”
finding diseases “interesting” is ableist at its core. you are fascinated with the otherness of it and usually while you give NO SHITS for the people who live with the disease.
other peoples illnesses aren’t for you to gawk at and go “ooooooooh ahhhhhhhh” at like this is entry level type shit and should not have to be explained but here I am on tumblr.com explaining it to you animals
hey just because someone finds something interesting doesnt mean they want people to have it. its not ableism at all.
people like you are the reason i made this post
I sure as fuck wish that people found my chronic, incurable and regularly fatal disease interesting. I wish that they educated themselves about it and/or they let me explain a couple of basic things about it before they made a fool of themselves and made me feel like shit by saying stupid, uninformed junk. I wish that I could have people who said ‘Man, that’s kind of cool’ when I got excited about something going well or was proud of how well I understand my condition, rather than looking at me with misty eyes and saying ‘Oh god you poor thing, I don’t know how you handle it because I never could’
Fuck off.
Remember folks: Every scientist who ever went into medicine and found interest in how viruses work while also working with them to understand them and better come up with working vaccinations is just ableist scum.
Thank you, Tumblr user lilbijou. Truly, you are a beacon of hope unto us all.
One of the best examples of artistic integrity on a corporate scale.
I can’t be the only one who finds it interesting that “product of its time” is being used directly alongside “still wrong back then”. Most (privileged, white) people use “product of its time” to avoid admitting that something was wrong regardless of its era and to excuse their repeating it.
All of my life I’ve wondered why the hell they use blue liquid in maxi pad commercials.
After watching this video, I’m suddenly totally fine with blue liquid I’ll never bring it up again, I promise. Just watch the video.
LMAO make men watch this while they’re eating dammit
they should use red
The problem with this is this is nothing like the blue liquid commercials at all and is overly dramatized to be gross on purpose. If it was made the exact same way as a blue liquid commercial, save with red liquid, it would make more sense.
I was raised by women, they put god damn everything in there I swear that’s their own fucking super power so this is the most well written and accurate representation of a female character I’ve ever seen.
^i am laughing so hard
Where else can you put things when all your pockets are fake or non-existent?
