“It wasn’t the one I wanted . . . “

A few days ago I made a post where I promised you I would overcome my anxiety and panic attacks if you ever came on tour in Italy. I’m a fool.

Earlier I was watching a famous italian singer live on TV. There were plenty of people, all standing up so closely to one another in the dark, with the music blasting. What would happen if someone fainted? What if someone wants to get out? I would die there. I cannot do this and I cry desperately because my biggest dream to see you live can’t come true. I’m very sorry. I’ve nothing left to do other than keep on thinking and dreaming about you.

would love to see more accessible design at concerts, for example:

designated quiet spaces to calm down from a panic attack or sensory overload, meltdown, etc.

maybe even “calm seating” where there is room to move around a little or where the speakers are quieter/not right above you

clear information about what will happen during the entrance and security experience

clear information about when to expect fireworks and other loud sounds

information about the timeline of events

information about emergency procedures

the ability to opt-in to receive an access-focused email about the events when you get your tickets

not to mention clear instructions about buying tickets, getting extra time while purchasing (the process can be so overwhelming!)

and obviously that using any of the access pieces wouldn’t take away from the experience (e.g., using the quiet room shouldn’t exclude you from the chance to get a meet and greet opportunity)

I just feel really strongly that these events need to be more accessible to disabled people, specifically thinking of invisible disabilities here but definitely overall too

This is a step in the right direction, and other stadiums are offering support like this. I hope that if Taylor does play “smaller” venues that services such as the one listed above will be available. I hope that other services would at the very least include:

Accessible Seating

Assisted Listening Devices

Bathrooms

Closed Captioning

Companion Seating

Elevators

Interpreting Services

Mobility Assistance

*Wishing your parents would stop talking shit about you.

First time cat owners listen up!

The most ridiculous things can harm your cat (or dog). There are multiple “regular flowers” that are toxic for your cat, as well as chocolate and other human foods. You may forget about it, but it can really harm your pet. So, make sure to check if the flowers you want to get are harmless to your cat.

1. chain post is a long ass post with a bunch of reblogs on it that means you have to scroll for 50 years to get past it 

2. a self reblog is a post that was reblogged by the person who posted it (aka the OP = original poster). so at the top of the post the two names there are the same.  a self reblogger is typically someone who aggressively self reblogs their own posts over and over like 20 times in the span of 13 seconds and clogs up their followers dashboard  

3. you can edit a reblog (or your tags on a reblog or a post) with that pencil edit button you dont have to delete and redo

4.  typos are ok cause they make u more like us because we’re all clowns but at least we’re cute
