I created this design for me, honestly.  

Yoga is great for me, but I sometimes feel excluded because of my disability.

I also learned how to digitize my art as vector graphics, so this is much higher-quality than the art I’ve posted to Zazzle in the past.  Which was fun to learn.  I’ll be making more....

She's only disabled out of an event that brought her to ruins.

She's this pathetic, sad girl when she's disabled, but ultimately gets better and all is as it should be.

A racist incident against children with multiple disabilities took place in North Greece, when a priest refused to give them the communion. The man claimed that these children “do not understand” and therefore “may spit the communion out.”

The incident took place at a summer military camp in Leptokarya, West Macedonia.

It was six children from a neighboring camp visiting the military one in the context of a program for the children’s integration and socialization. The children were supposed to attend the Sunday service at the open-air church.

When the time came for the children to receive the holy communion the priest refused to do so claiming that the children with disabilities “may spit it out.”

Hi guys, today we're back to our regularly scheduled programming, talking about things I've been thinking about recently - right now it's feeling stuck, having low capacity/spoons to do things, and how to make friends?! 

Are there other people that feel similarly to any of the things I’ve talked about?

Would you value knowing other people that are similar to you, especially if you’re autistic? 

Have you found any solutions or ideas for what you could try if you had a little extra energy or capacity? 

Do you think that thing a risk and doing something that past experience tells you I bad for you might actually be a good thing for you to do to make progress? 

Is it better to maintain a stable ‘now’ in the hope that you’ll gain more capacity to do things in the future? 

Are any of those things mutually exclusive at all?! And finally, is anyone a part of a Facebook group (or a similar closed group of some kind), or if not, would you be interested in being part of something like this?

Me: *crying because I'm cold but I know I'll just take the hoodie off because I'll get hot* ... the fuck, man?
