Disabled people do not owe you their medical history.
They do not owe you their diagnosis.
They do not owe you an explanation.
Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing.
No one is doing it for fun.

When people are nostalgic for THE X-FILES, it’s for the serial killer who could squeeze into tiny pipes, the leech man who lives in the sewers, the depressed prophet, and Reynard Muldrake shrieking like a little girl, not the black oil and the alien hybrid program.

Yeah, well the mafia and Hooters teamed up to give me the Greatest Medical Doctor Award. It's a Fisher-Price stethoscope spray-painted with gold glitter.

Generation of kids being educated by teachers conned by the "promise" of generative AI are cooked. Outlier ND students into educational YouTubers are future humanity's only hope for advancing, or even holding onto, knowledge, but all the advertising and algorithms are working overtime against them.

The cyclical experience of needless pushback whenever we CAN summon the capacity to articulate a polite request for some miniscule accommodation is outright demoralizing, esp. since we watch entitled assholes receive FAR greater leniency & accommodations just by taking them, or cheating others. 😑
The capacities involved in self-advocacy? To be able to clearly articulate what accommodations you need, to articulate them in a manner that able-bodied people will be so receptive to that they’ll change social dynamics/infrastructure to accommodate you? Barrier. Barrier. Barriers within barriers.

Disability socially marginalizes you. There are so many layers of cultural values about ability and labor, dehumanizing representations of disability, the ways people build their senses of self, and more that disincentivizes self-identifying as disabled, much less going further to self-advocate.

A """funny""" thing I've noticed is that if you see a buckwild and totally made up claim on Reddit and then search that claim on Google, trying to source it, the Gemini AI summary will be like "oh, yeah, that totally happened, and my source is that three hour old Reddit thread you were just reading"
