Person: Uses ableist word/term

Disabled folk: “Please don’t use that word/term, it’s harmful”

Person: “Fuck you, why are you attacking ME… I’m on your side!!”

No… No you’re not an ally if unwilling to listen & learn.

Pretty sure my MP's going to be getting sick of me at this point with how much I've been emailing them, unfortunately not much more I can do cos disabled but at least it's one more email on top of what they already get. (:

Really makes me wonder why I should bother caring about any issues beyond my own when the people who are supposed to be on my side clearly see my disabilities as a moral failing.

As someone who does struggle with keeping my place tidy (yay multiple overlapping severe disabilities and not being able to have support) this shit just gives the impression that people like me will be abandoned once their issues are one day solved. The old pulling the ladder up behind you thing.

The reason Nurse Joy is sexualized is because the deep and primal allure of a Universal Healthcare system.

As a partially mute streamer I can confirm there is definitely an audience for no-mic streams. If you're interacting with chat in some way like by talking in chat yourself that's often enough. But it really can depend on what kind of content you do and find having a disclaimer about no mic helps.

Every time I see so called disability allies promoting ableist attitudes I just lose any faith in other people. We're always an afterthought, even to our "allies" and the amount of times said "allies" get annoyed when their ableism is pointed out is far too high.

AAAAA I can't express how happy and excited I am to have reached 800 followers on Twitch today. It's so surreal to me just thinking about how 800 people in a room looks like.

This is a condition I myself struggle with, but have somehow managed to get my brain to (usually) accept streams as a 'safe place' for me to speak but face to face or phone calls etc I'm completely mute and can't talk with anybody regardless of how hard I try.

Svitanna ❄️ @svitanna.bsky.social · 4d

Forgot to post at the start of the month but October is selective mutism awareness month. For those who don't know about it, it's a very misunderstood mutism condition where, outside of certain situations a person is completely unable to speak no matter how much they want to

Whatever they did 100% is affecting actual viewers, was watching a stream which said 2 viewers... While there were 3 people talking in chat for about 10+ minutes and me watching the stream but not chatting because I had nothing to say. The math just isn't mathing

Svitanna ❄️ @svitanna.bsky.social · 9d

Oh and I forgot to mention, every stream this week until Sunday will be a charity stream for the Trevor Project!

Svitanna ❄️ @svitanna.bsky.social · 9d

Voice died again but that won't stop me doing a no speaking ASMR stream 💙💙

*pointing to the sign amidst all the valid CEO criticism* ☝️🥺

The Simpsons meme with the bus driver. The first panel shows the driver behind the wheel, saying "Don't make me tap the sign."

The second panel shows him tapping the sign, which has been edited to read: "When you make fun of a bad person for their appearance, somewhere there’s a good person with a similar appearance who hears you and feels terrible"

One of my favourite moments of being a trans streamer.. when I accidentally out myself as trans to my community and I'm met with some variation of "wait you're trans?" and they keep supporting me. Not sure I can think of anything that helps my voice dysphoria more.

.... I feel called out because I do exactly the same.

Healer: "Serve me well enough and I may allow you to continue serving me"

Tank: "Please protect me oh mighty healer, I'll be good!"

Svitanna ❄️ @svitanna.bsky.social · 18d

Related, I've said it for a while but tanks are the bottoms of MMORPGs, healers are the tops.

IndumatiVT @indumati.bsky.social · 18d

Being a bottom is just being a tank IRL.

Are these lists for streamers who only stream nothing but FFXIV? Because I have an ongoing FFXIV challenge I have dedicated stream days to every week.

This is why you need to have a moment while tying up your sub where you make them dance around by using the ropes around their wrists to control them like a puppet
