Can you believe this? I’m gonna be honest. I’ve sort of created a little bubble for myself here on Instagram. A bubble that I love and am so appreciative for, but a bubble nonetheless. What I mean is this: I am surrounded by people who agree with me. Yesterday was weird. It was one of those days where ableism was just so obvious. I went on TikTok, and it was there. I went on Facebook, and it was there. I watched TV, and it was there. But when I’m on Instagram, and I’m surrounded by so many amazing advocates, so many informative posts, and so much support, it’s sometimes easy to forget that there are still people in this world - and too many of them - who don’t think that disabled people are equal. Who truly believe that disabled lives aren’t worth living. And that it’s okay to prolong the depths of exclusion and inadequacy onto the world’s biggest minority. I don’t have anything to say today other than I can’t believe that. 2022 and this crap is still a thing. Be excellent to each other.
