So I might need oral surgery, depending on whether antibiotics resolve the pain I've been having. Depending on how that surgery goes, half of my mouth might end up being numb for a duration of time ranging from a month to the rest of my life.

Who wants to eat cornstarch packing peanuts with me?

The social model of disability definitely has its place, but I'm gonna need people to understand that there are difficulties with being disabled that aren't just societal problems.

Thinking about the time someone got mad at me for calling psych meds "lifesaving medications" because "they're not lifesaving the way chemotherapy is". Like, I don't know if you knew this, but suicide kills you just as dead as cancer.

Yeah.

I have a problem where if I feel nauseous at the same time as I listen to unfamiliar music, I become convinced that the music is causing the nausea, even when I know it's caused by something else.

I unironically respect the fact that Robert Smith styles himself exactly the same way at 66 years old as he did when he was in his 20's and hot.

I've never played WoW, but murlocs are Neopets to me.

Imagine watching the video from Ring and then positioning yourself so that this is the only TV nearby a week later.

Moving to a new country has been such an ordeal. I barely understand what people say to me here, although my Spanish is getting better. There's so much I don't know how to navigate. Sometimes I miss the city I grew up in so much.

But it's better here. It's better.

My right shoulder has gotten pretty hairy after going on T. My left shoulder though? Hairy as fuck. A veritable jungle of shoulder hair.

You'd think "what does BDSM stand for" would be a really basic question for any kinkster, but it's actually kind of hard, because the acronym doesn't make any sense. Anyway, I always end up getting confused and thinking something along the lines of "bondage, divestment, sanctions, masochism".

Does anyone remember that post where someone was talking about how homophobia is bad, and a Christian guy came out of nowhere to say it was disgusting anti-Christian bigotry? Because I feel like that's analogous to how a lot of the online left responds to general discussion of antisemitism.

I honestly don't have a lot of sympathy for people who act like it's impossible for them to disengage with Harry Potter, because it used to be so tied up in my identity, but I still got away from it. It was my primary special interest as an autistic person for over a decade. I don't engage with it anymore.

The worst part of grocery shopping is when I put a big handful of drink mix packets on the counter, and then the cashier has to count out like 50 counts of what's essentially sugar free Kool Aid to scan them, while I stand there and pretend to be a real adult.

Stop calling me, Santa. I will stone cold cancel your holiday.

I've got a Bluesky post that's gaining a lot of traction in the "words that I didn't say" fandom.

Sims stop using the magic witch cauldron to make macaroni and cheese 2026 challenge.

One time as a kid, I was playing Scrabble against my grandparents, and we got into a huge argument about whether the word "bio" was permissible. Anyway, I just checked, and it's in both Oxford and Collins, so get fucked, gramps.

Not running with your initial responses to the ways disabled people look, smell, sound, speak, etc is an essential part of disability acceptance and disability rights. This extends to coprolalia in people with Tourette syndrome, even in situations where your initial response is genuine pain and anger.

I need to do more in my life generally, but I feel so unmotivated, even as I feel trapped in my empty routine.
