I love the pika.
Twitter is bad but I'm realizing that if it dies then there will be zero mainstream social media platforms where NSFW content can be posted without restrictions (reddit doesn't really count, it's a combination forum host/link aggregator), and that really, really scares me with regards to where we are at as a society.
I am reminded of the famous burrito test, which states that "if you cannot get up at 3am and microwave a burrito, you live in an institution". I propose an analogous maxim for community and social spaces, both online and offline; if you cannot post hole for your friends to see, despite your mutual consent, you aren't in an "open social platform", you are being farmed as somebody's product.
Absolutely. The importance of being able to post adult content isn't Everyone Needs Porn Omg (though liking porn is fine and masturbation and sexual fantasy are normal for many humans), it's that that's one of the first ways that powerful people take control of what you hear and see.
You should ALWAYS be skeptical of it.
Also, queer people are often labeled 'adult content' when we're just existing in public. (even on this very site!) So any "you can't show adult content" policy, no matter how innocuously worded, can become a "sweep those icky queers under the rug" policy.
Why are you comparing being forcibly institutionalized to not being able to post bare ass on Twitter?
The burrito test is about people who are living in institutions like long-term care facilities, hospitals, residential care, etc.
It’s a measurement of actual, literal freedom for individuals who are institutionalized
It’s not about social media. It’s not about fandom. It’s not about nsfw bans. It’s about severely disabled people and whether or not they’re allowed to control the most very basic aspects of their lives (meal times & bed time)
The fact you think it’s appropriate to compare NSFW bans on social media to being forcibly institutionalized in a place you literally can’t even use a microwave is honestly really fucking disgusting and narrow minded and ableist
In the UK they’ve had to start a charity called Stay Up Late.
Why? Because people with severe disabilities (ESPECIALLY learning disabilities) are consistently not allowed to have late night social events because the carers and council say that’s “what they prefer.”
It’s not.
Let me reiterate: we have had to start a charity to let grown adults go out for a drink.
Because people don’t respect their autonomy because they’re under care. It’s a classic fail of the burrito test. They can’t go do the thing of their own accord even though it can be done safely.
Don’t use the shit that helps disabled people AVOID CONTROLLING INSTITUTIONS to make TWITTER ANALOGIES.
“Some of your posts are excluding low support needs. Don’t exclude us”
Some of my posts are made to exclude low support needs and I’ll admit that. I can not cater to everyone, and sometimes my posts are directed at a certain group of people. My posts however, are always welcome to all to interact with.
Sometimes, things aren’t about you. Sometimes, things need to be about a certain group of people. Sometimes, medium and high support autistics DESERVE posts about them.
My account was made because I felt like I didn’t belong. Because in most spaces things weren’t centered or even included higher support needs. Blogs like mine are for everyone, however I do center my posts around higher support needs so they don’t feel alone anymore like I did.
That’s the facts.

Not to be that guy, but saying “I hate all men, including trans men because I’m not transphobic.”, doesn’t make you less hateful. Nor does it make you less transphobic.
You’re essentially saying “if you choose to express yourself in the way that makes you most comfortable, I am going to hate you. I hate you for a core part of your being that has very little to do with whether or not you are actually deserving of hate.”
Discouraging trans men from actually being men because they do not wish for you to hate them, is transandrophobia.
Being a man and/or being masculine is not inherently evil, nor is it worthy of hate. Men are not a monolith and treating them like they are is only pushing them into the “well, you hate me so why should I help you?” camp.
this is an IBS hate blog. IBS is a quitter's diagnosis. "b-but nothing showed up on the scans or scopes!!!" have you even tried testing. the function of the gut, perhaps? the speed at which food moves through the gastrointestinal tract? the way the gut reacts to certain triggers? the lining of the gastrointestinal tract? non-ige food allergies? or did you just see no tumors and called it a day?

I wanna throw up forever and crawl in a hole and die
My work shoes are peeling so bad they are no longer waterproof, and im constantly running at a pain management deficit which is only adding to the stress by making me unable to do anything but barely make it thru the work day. Im frequently skipping meals bc the stress is making me so physically sick i can't eat much and often skip dinner entirely bc I can't make myself eat. Bc im the only working person i also can no longer pay for pain management for my partner and my housemate, so they will be struggling more to help me as well. Also including a link to my wishlist which is mostly disability and chronic illness life aids that make my life a little easier, plus electrolytes so im not constantly dizzy and tachy.
All links will be in my pinned so tumblr doesnt nerf this post. Please boost if you can't give
My paycheck still hasn't hit and when it does its gonna be almost $100 less than usual plus my rent goes up severely to over my entire first paycheck when i move at the end of this month. Im so fucked i dont know what to do and im having almost daily breakdowns over it. Please help
Bare minimum i need $400 to cover all potential moving fees (we need movers we are all too disabled, including my parents if they even wanted to help which they dont, to move most of our small amount of furniture ourselves). Another $350 or so would keep us medicated until hopefully at least onw of my roommates can get a semi permanent job (apps are in, no responses for months tho)
I wouldn't ask if this was not literally the only way i can survive w/o forcing myself into abusive and unsafe living conditions
