Indeed, like the pickle.

I write queer, kinky sff stuff. Diversity reader, copyeditor/proofreader, & TTRPG gamer. Seizures suck, but my trans wife is amazing.

Genderqueer wheelchair user, #disabled & #actuallyautistic

Definitely a mermaid with AuADHD
Pinned
A little TL;DR for what's happened with me:

-I'm an ambulatory wheelchair user now!

-I'm two years post top surgery and loving it

-I have seizures still
I love working in mental health as a day job.

I could NEVER quit my work in publishing. I just need to pay the medical bills.

If there is a need for education in my lived experiences, I am here to help!

I worked with one of my professor's favorite authors and had no friggin' idea. 😬

And they're also one of my MIL's favorite authors.

I didn't know what their pen name was!

We have to use our government names for contracts.

Please share this:

I'm fundraising for a service dog that will help with mobility issues, seizures, C-PTSD, autism and more.

It's a long process that will luckily only cost $5,000.

Plus, I'll be paired with a dog by the time I'm doing field practicum for therapy!

As of next semester, I've reached my max lifetime borrowing for undergrad. 😬

I am royally screwed now that mental healthcare professionals aren't seen as having a "professional" career.

I really hope I get a scholarship for grad school.

Instead of worry dolls or muñeca quitapenas, I make trauma dumplings for people.

These are my small 'fried' trauma dumplings.

Perfect for when your brain is fried and you need to dump some trauma on an amigurumi!

I was doing some research on gender roles in queer long-term relationships.

One peer reviewed source said that partners in a same-sex marriage will align with the roles of husband and wife.

What queer couples are YOU talking to?

That's like asking "So who's the guy?"

Okay, so you have the Starbucks teddy bear cup.

But do you have a collection of $300 hospital mugs?

The majority of SNAP recipients are white.

More than 62% of households that utilize SNAP have children.

37% of participants have an elderly or disabled person within their household.

The main age range is around 18-59 years old.

These people are at high risk of food insecurity.

The weirdest thing about going back to uni after 15 years is the new requirements for each class.

My undergrad liberal arts school had a 'well-rounded' educational models.

They wanted you to take a little of everything.

It's why that uni was my first pick!

In one psychology course, we're reading dense academic papers about gender.

Every single paper mixes up gender with sex!

Jegaysus tapdancing Christie. Stop with the binary! And they have all have PhDs.

YES!!

You wanna get mad, get mad at the transit companies for making transit that doesnt account for more than one mobility disabled person at a time, or anyone ever having anything they'd like to set down.

Yes it should be better, stop punching sideways!
The number of people who get mad that there’s a wheelchair user on the accessible train car is something.

I have two wheelchair ramps outside my front door for my power wheelchair.

The way some people act— You'd think I was advertising poisoned apples or something.

My application to graduate school went through!! Yes!

I'm doing 8-ish rounds of interviews after January, so cross your fingers, press your thumbs, idc!

Wish me luck on my adventure to becoming a LGBTQ+ and gender speciality therapist!

Not androgyny as in "I want to cut off my hair and go on T."

Androgyny as in "I was to sound, dress, and have the general vibe of Felix from Stray Kids."

One of the weirdest conversations I've had with myself this week:

*reading*
...add access for authorized users—

No. No, I'm an adult. I don't want to be. But I'm an adult.

What did you do this Labor Day weekend?

I tried to start a new mini kit and ended up in urgent care.

I'm not allowed sharp objects!! I also promised not to make fun of people who hunt and peck when they type.

I'm looking for small business creators who offer a silly product:

a Goosestarion or Goostarion keychain.

I need a new keychain for my red emergency medicine bag (iykyk).

The zipper pull is too small to grab and rip open when you're having an asthma attack!

CW: ED and fatphobia

I watched The Biggest Loser doc.

It's exercise bulimia. Pure and simple.

The "contestants" were all sent home with fucked up metabolisms stuck in starvation mode.

Starvation mode is impossible for some people to escape. Some bodies CAN'T recover from it.

👋🏻 That'd be me.

I was finally applying to a graduate program for mental health sciences when I noticed the essay questions were very odd and invasive.

We don't know each other like that. Not yet.

I showed the prompts to my therapist, and they even said "Wow, these questions are triggering."

TW: pet death

When you lose a 'pet', you don't get time off for grievance.

You don't get to shit Shiva or recite the mourner's kaddish.

You're expected to shake it off because 'it was just an animal'.

Fuck you. They're my babies, the only children I'll have.

And now all of them are gone.
