listen.

carefully.

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.
