ALSO, JUST FOR THE RECORD!!!! If you are refusing to stop taking photos of people you look like a cop.

And, for the record, a lot of you have your phones set to automatically store photos in the cloud, where the fourth amendments gets... fuzzy.

You also have no assurance that your camera/phone and the data on it won't be taken by a cop.

The good news is that if you keep your phone locked with a pass code, they can't force you to unlock it. But if it's biometric (fingerprint or retina) they can force you to unlock it.

yes, but they can still confiscate your phone (at the protest or after when you're home) and get a warrant to search it regardless of your password type. it's better to just not take photos (or bring your phone at all, depending on the type of protest you are going to)

happy disability pride month to mean cripples, nasty addicts, people with down syndrome who arent nice and talk constant shit, wheelchair users that WILL run you over, autists that dont care and arent about to pretend to, people who lie to their psychiatrists, people that sit on the floor in public places with no benches, amputees that lie profusely about "what happened"; to the "noncompliant", the "drug seeking", the "mean", the "difficult" and the "undeserving", and so on and so forth, i love us all and we deserve the world actually mwah mwah

Remember that even on your worst days, somewhere, out there, a trans girl has spun her skirt for the first time. The world is good.

Queer joy detected!

I'm sure others have discussed this but I figured it out on my own so I thought I would share for others who haven't. If you are a full time wheelchair user crop all your tops (that won't be tucked in) to fall just at the hip. Most full length shirts are about an inch or so longer than that, and they pool over your lap awkwardly while sitting. When they are cut to be essentially the exact length of your torso they sit just lightly on the hip and don't look as awkward. This works really well for knits like t-shirts, because you don't have to hem them. But it can work on any style of shirt or blouse, they just may have to be hemmed (which can be done easily with iron on hems if you can't or don't want to sew, or need to ask someone who doesn't sew to help.) Anyway this trick has really helped me feel more confident in putting together outfits and not feeling awkward or frumpy. And it even makes me feel more confident as a masc presenting person bc I didn't have to jump between awkwardly long and way too cropped.

let’s talk about how they made it impossible to function without a phone and digitalised everything and then turned around and went “actually! these phone things aren’t safe for kids but it’s magically ok once you’re eighteen. guess you’ll have to have your life dictated by your parents now lol cause we’re gonna take the devices away from you. IT’S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING”

ok my apologies. take away my ability to buy anything too ig because these fuckass stores don’t accept cash anymore. take away my ability to communicate with people outside my house and school because I can’t text and I can’t email and I cant drive to them either and I can’t even fucking get public transport without a phone either. can’t order at a fucking restaurant without being asked to get a membership and install an app and also very sorry but you can only order through our online menu now! have you ever considered that it’s not just about instagram?
