This is actually hella interesting, bc in simple terms, lions are extroverts and tigers are introverts. There’s more to it, but that’s the gist.
Whenever zoo’s tried to put lions and tigers in the same enclosures, the lioness would eventually try to groom the tiger and play constantly. The Tiger would lose patience and snaps at them
So basically what I’m saying is that you have a regal and refined gf who stands at the edge of a balcony during parties, sipping champagne
Then you have the other girl who drank all of the little flutes on the servers platter, and is now drunkenly pointing at her gf and telling everyone that that’s her gf and doesn’t she look beautiful I love her so much
If youre over the age of 20 and lost all your teen years to mental illness and never got to be normal, or have healthy relationships, went down the wrong path or diddnt have the right nurturing support from BOTH your parents and now you have to sort of catch up on your life whether thats getting your license, getting your GED, starting college, fixing your mental health, or starting things you told yourself to start or try again and again no matter what it is, and trying to fight to live and accomplish shit you FEEL you should have accomplished as a teenager but diddnt have the capacity or insight to care about due to mental illness.
I am so incredibly sorry, and im thankful youre here and alive and trying!!! also;
You are N O T a failure you took your time because you couldnt put more on yourself than you could bear to carry and that is a mark of self care so dont ever feel bad about it
I am so fucking proud of you, youre trying your hardest to get to the top even though it may be harder now, you could have given up but you havent and for that you are victorious and i am in awe of you.
hdjdjsjkk my mum works in retail and one of her coworkers is autistic & mostly doesnt talk unless he has to but yesterday he went out of his way to cross through the crowds of xmas shoppers and dodge a train of trolleys to go up to my mum, gesture to the crowds and say “michelle. i am losing the will to live”
in general the media outcry about “fake service dogs” has been less for the safety of disabled people and more for the vanity of abled people who want to act as an authority over disabled people
this is the exact attitude of abled people who
watch wheelchair users like hawks and take videos of them when they realise they can move their legs
heckle blind/VI people for using cellphones, being online, going places independently
freak out seeing a cane user leave their cane to, like, walk to a nearby restroom or grab something that requires two hands
abled people LOVE to be the disability police and they always do it under the guise of “helping” people who are “really” disabled, as if they know fucking anything about disability. then they take our paranoia about being under constant surveillance as an admission of guilt!
