i do not post, answer, or reblog donation requests unless they are for established charities or close friends. verified lists of individuals are not established charities. donation request asks and messages are deleted and accounts are blocked. because of my very clear message here, all asks and messages requesting donations or submitted/linked posts about donations are reported as spam. real people do not read this kind of message and send asks anyways.
if you think all trans masc people are transmisogynistic, this is not the blog for you. bye.
im sterling! he/him/his or they/them/theirs pronouns, you can use one set or the other, or switch in between, whatever floats your duck. note: the fact i use âmasculineâ pronouns does not mean im a man. im non-binary, and only ever call myself trans masc bc im just not a girl. thank you for coming to my ted talk
yeah i did name myself after sterling archer. and all the customer reviews are things people have actually considered appropriate to say to a stranger on the internet.
screenshotting out of context posts is a massive loser move. commit to the bit and find another way to embarrass me.
if you send me an ask and the answer can be found here im replying with a star trek meme:
im 24 and donât tag nsfw. i donât post it often but youâve been warned
original posts are #sterling speaks asks are #answered + #anon when applicable
i add onto posts a lot, either to fact check or just say shit. itâs usually not directed at op or the above commenter i just like talking
trigger tags are âtw blankâ (ex: tw antisemitism)
you can ask for trigger tags if you hang around my blog a lot
unless youâre gonna ask for queer to be tagged a slur bc im not doing that lol
i have a side blog for some anime/genshin impact stuff to keep this one from being insufferable. you can dm for the url and genshin uid if you really want
im a type one diabetic with complications from ketoacidosis (me/cfs and pots), and hEDS. occasional wheelchair user with a service dog in training named scout. adhd, bpd, and all sorts of other shit.
my qualifications when it comes to disability diagnosis are i have some and have read things on the internet. if you ask me âdo i have xâ i can give you some suggestions based on my personal experiences, but iâm not a doctor. grain of salt
i dont mind answering questions about disability/accessibility/mobility aids as long as questions are respectful
if i get into a fight with someone pls donât harass them on my behalf
feel free to send me fact checks for posts, iâll reblog with valid updates
DNF/and yes i actually check this:
im not joking about blocking bigoted people on sight. if you follow you wonât be following for long.
other: us military veterans unless you can be chill about it , transmeds, terfs, gun enthusiasts/no gun regulation supporters, anti-aquariums/animal reserves/zoos, anti self diagnosis*, anti-mental illness recovery*, eating disorder blogs/pro-eating disorders, vegans who donât know that meat consumption isnât the root of all evil, fanblogs for: hazbin hotel, attack on titan, 13 reasons why, south park/other ~adult animation like it~. hamilton is on thin ice.
about self-dx: thereâs nothing wrong with identifying your own symptoms and determining possible reasons for those symptoms. however, you cannot say you have a diagnosis when you do not meet the diagnostic criteria. idc if you think you have some weird unique form of a condition-if you do not meet the criteria and have not been diagnosed after extensive work with a medical professional, do not represent yourself as an example of that condition. ex: you say you have a potentially disabling mental condition like bpd, but then have few or none of the nine diagnostic criteria.
about mental illness recovery: it is completely up to an individual to decide what this means for them. however, i do believe itâs in someoneâs best interest to at least find some kind of management plan that works for them, even if that doesnât include classical psychiatry. conditions like bpd and bipolar can be life ruining if you donât actively try and work with it, i understand this isnât possible for everyone but start with a dbt worksheet or smth. take care <3

can we all agree that handwash onlys are attention seeking? you're using the same dish soap as the rest of us but you need a sponge bath because you're too good for a shower

op some people will die if they're washed with soap at all. unlike certain plastic divas dishes that claim to be "top row only" like that makes a fucking difference.

âInclusive community arts festival!â âEverybody welcome!â âEvents for all!â
No access info for any of the venues
Box office is inaccessible
Google â[festival name] accessibilityâ; get info on their âaccessible pricingâ (pay ÂŁ1 less if you want to). No mention of free tickets for essential carers
Do a lot of disability detective work; most venues donât have wheelchair access
One claims to be accessible, look inside: âweâre an accessible venue. There are three steps to get in, but we can help you with thoseâ.
If it's okay for me to add, my favourite (aka most rage inducing):
We have people who can carry you up the stairs
Even worse than "3 steps but we can help you!" what do you mean you're going to carry someone up the 1 to 2 FLIGHTS of stairs? What?
and also you just KNOW they wouldn't. They're imagining someone who can't go up stairs being a waifish 90 pound grandma or child cancer patient. Most wheelchair users I see are heavy enough that it's absurd and frankly offensive to say that they can "just carry you up the stairs."
I had this at uni. The LGBT society had inaccessible events and when I pointed it out they told me that they could carry me up the flight of stairs.
So I carefully explained how I have a manual handling plan that sets out how I can safely be moved and that I cannot just be lifted by a random stranger who isnât familiar with my disability. And that even if they got me up the stairs, my wheelchair is twice as heavy and there is no way theyâd get it up the stairs.
I asked them, knowing that, what was their plan once I was upstairs, just lay me in a corner somewhere and hope I didnât get stepped on*? Cause that doesnât sound like a good party
It didnât change anything. Events continued to be in the same venue, and they stopped trying to include me at all.
*other risks include: suffocation, pressure sores, infections and muscular skeletal injuries but I figured that was a bit too complex to explain.
and let's pretend it's entirely possible to lift a wheelchair user up stairs.... so many wheelchairs are extremely fragile and most people only have one. repairs take months and replacements can take years. that's time where, for many people, someone can't leave their bed.
so. you want to bring a heavy, fragile powerchair upstairs? a powerchair that, if you drop it, could mean... failing out of school, losing a job (and unemployment for months-years), dying of pressure sores? it's not low stakes.
even custom manual wheelchairs can be very fragile. my manual wheelchair might not survive being dropped down a few stairs depending on how it's dropped.
This is so true. Itâs been a while since Iâve had a manual chair, but Complex Rehab Technology powerchairs are like endangered animals that die of stress if you look at them funny. Day to day use in their natural habitat and theyâre mostly fine, but if you drop anything thatâs a very expensive mistake (the controller alone on my chair costs ÂŁ3000, itâs not unheard of for a whole wheelchair to cost upwards of ÂŁ20,000)
Because of that price tag, in the UK most people who rely on NHS funding for a CRT powerchair donât have access to funding for a backup chair. Iâd imagine this is similar in other places. Without my chair Iâm completely housebound with no independent mobility.
That means if you drop and break my chair I canât get to my workplace, canât access healthcare, do my shopping, sit in the garden, visit my elderly relatives or housebound friends, or anything at all that means leaving the flat.
It can take so long to get new parts for a powerchair and even longer to get assessed for a whole new chair. Where I live if you canât get to the wheelchair clinic (say because someone threw your only means of mobility down a flight of stairs) youâre waiting even longer for the assessment to get prescribed a new chair and the wait for any new part to be fitted is also longer because there are only so many engineers, OTs and physios and making house calls takes much longer per visit.
Also like⌠if you trip and drop a 200kg powerchair on yourself then youâll probably get experience first hand just how shitty the world is to wheelchair users. Because ouch.
i don't really want to weight in on the "using big words in your writing is ableist" discourse happening on tiktok because i'm like 90% certain it's an anti-intellectual psyop to stir up drama in online circles to promote the use of ai to summarize literally everything and thus feeding the LLMs and lowering the populace's mistrust of such tools but i also have to say: dictionaries and thesauruses are the most accessible they've ever been. if you use an e-reader of any kind you can look up a word without leaving the page. there's a plethora of online dictionaries and if you just type a word + "meaning" into google it'll usually give you a definition. we used to have pocket dictionaries we used when reading in class. i have two on my shelf right now that i used in high school. stop letting the fascists purposefully misuse anti-ableism rhetoric to trick you into never thinking again.

on my "don't walk to metlife" post I kept seeing people say that drivers would "bergentruck" pedestrians on the turnpike and it turns out that that's a reference to an Undertale meme where a character purposefully runs over people, but the portion of the jersey turnpike that goes to metlife is bergen county, and I had just instantly accepted that there was a term specifically referring to jersey drivers from there. I didn't even question it. Neither would you, if you had ever driven there.
