#disabilitypridemonth

July is Disability Pride Month!!

~ Don't forget to adjust your leg braces, take your meds, and DON'T fuse into the cosmic infinity with your science partner/undying love!

(liquifying your bodies isn't great for your health 👍 And might be an OSHA violation...)

DO NOT BABY HIM!

I always had this headcannon for Dream for a while.

My fav disabled characters; to me Lizzie is neurodivergent very much so even tho it's not explicitly canon according to Google's generation ai anyway because it's such a loser:

I also personally headcannon lily hu from the last night at the telegraph club as dyspraxic , which I'm as well!!

And of course to geek girl's main character Harriet manners too! Who's dyspraxic like me! Which's so cool! BC finally a canon dyspraxic character woohoo! Shout-out to the person playing her( as in Harriet manners)! BC idk what's the gender neutral/ non binary version for / of actor / actress. She's also autistic too! ( As in Harriet manners)

More like we still don't do society's version n only their version- kind of version + kind + version of kind of fitting in.

“My flesh is of the earth, like all bodies. But so is the body of my wheelchair, the titanium extracted from the crust of the earth, an element that happens to be found in Canada. The same crust of ancient rock I crawled across as a kid contains the element needed to build my wheelchair.” – Erin Clark
