Just a reminder that there are still people trying to escape the horrors of the systemic genocide the state of Israel is perpetuating against Palestine. Please donate to Gaza victims if possible or share posts like this one, spreading awareness.

How do you explain to people that part of the problem with working isn't even using falling apart car/laptop to commute to work, it's the inability to sit there and focus for 6-8 hours. The inability to not be in building pain the entire time. The fact that most days you have drastically fewer spoons than you need to do BASIC SELF CARE TASKS so you ARENT most days, and literally anything else is extra steps on top of THAT. Sure you can get the job but if you don't have clean clothes to wear bc you can't work and do laundry? Or you don't have the energy to shower?? Or things at home get so behind you can't even try to cook?

hey. you shouldnt get mad or annoyed at someone with gastrointestinal, bowel and/or bladder problems for being in the bathroom. yes that includes if its an ‘inconvenience’ to you. you can wait to brush your teeth, someone with urgency or incontinence cant.

being disabled takes a lot of energy. i don't really mean like that it is necessarily fatiguing or that all disabilities are energy limiting. but rather the extra effort needed to access an inherently inaccessible world will wear on anyone even if they don't struggle with pain, fatigue, or tiredness as part of their disability

there's disabled people out there who could probably work if they really really pushed themselves, but don't work. there's people who could probably do more housework than they can, or aren't putting out the maximum amount of effort they are able to manage. and you know what? that's great. those people don't have to wring every last drop of ability from their bodies to be allowed to have a break. or be supported. i'm so happy that there might be disabled people who got support before things were dire. i think more disabled people should get support so that less of them have to work even if they can at a push, and more of them have time to do important things. like take a nap. ameen

Yeah I could technically work a “full time job” with an extreme level of preparation for my mental and physical needs. But I would have to literally spend the rest of my time recovering from working all those hours, and my work life balance would be completely screwed up. I would have no time or energy to ever do anything that I truly enjoy. I am not going to push myself to the point where I am working so hard and so much that I can’t enjoy my life as a result, just because society says that I am “lazy” because I can’t consistently work 40+ hours a week.
