disableddyke:justlgbtthings: blu-eyed-demon:crystallos-sol:justlgbtthings: justlgbtthings:inspiration porn is ableist. knowing your limits and not purposely putting yourself in harmful situations is not “giving up.” disabled people living their lives is not “giving up” and they are allowed to be disabled in peace. we don’t need to be an inspiration to abled people. we are not here to serve and be witnessed by abled people. pictures and mentality like this enforce the idea that our lives are to be a public spectacle and that without the abled perspective, are otherwise meaningless and unfulfilled unto ourselves. this glorifies self-harm and -endangerment, and is incredibly harmful and toxic to disabled people. protect disabled youth and stop spreading messages that we’re not good enough knowing our limitations and not spreading ourselves thin. no If you don’t understand why this post it ableist, this short TED talk explains it better then I can comments like this are why every abled person should be required to watch this ted talk @ everyone in the notes bending over backwards to miss the point and maintain their ableism -- source link
