Happy Disability Pride Month To: Those who use mobility aids, those who are chronically disabled/ill, the mentally ill (especially those who are regularly demonized by the media), those who use AACs, the deaf and hearing impaired/hard of hearing, people who are aided by service animals, people whose disabilities are often brushed aside and called "trends", those who struggle with hygiene and self care, disabled poc, disabled queers, people who lack the support and care they need, and those with disabilities considered invisible and those who have been told/believe they aren't disabled enough. Happy Disability Pride Month To All Disabled People!

listen to disabled people 💖

Digital illustration of a large group of disabled people of different ethnicities, ages, and genders. Among the crowd are service and emotional support animals. There’s two smaller protest signs that read, ‘I shouldn’t lose benefits when I get married.’ And ‘ban subminimum wage’ the main sign reads, ‘disabled people are expert of their own lives and know what they need.’

actually let me add to this whole "sims 5 is going to be free" (+ microtransactions) because it is particularly disgusting with their recent history: Their rebranding is specifically and increasingly trying to appeal to children.

The way they dressed their presenter during the stream was specifically done to seem more relatable to children.

The way they already dumbed down Sims 4 is to specifically appeal to children. They even lowered the age rating.

Making Sims 5 free will make it incredibly easy for kids to get the base game (especially if it comes out on mobile) and once they have access to it, they'll pester their parents to buy microtransaction bullshit.

I am not usually one who goes for "omg they are targeting your children"-hysteria, but this one is so on the nose, it's really astonishing. They should be ashamed.

Small reminder for my Texas/southwest peope. Going to be expecially nasty next week. Stay hydrated, stay cool, keep an eye on your neighbors.

Popping this back up, since it’s getting hot here, and won’t get any cooler ‘til October.  Stay hydrated, friends!

[ID: a graphic from Texas Parks and Wildlife and Texas State Parks that shows the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke. the listed symptoms of heat exhaustion are Faint or Dizzy, Cool, pale, clammy skin, Excessive Sweating, and Muscle Cramps. The listed symptoms of heat stroke are Throbbing headache, Red, hot, dry skin, No Sweating, and Change in Mental State. the graphic beside Change in Mental State shows a stick figure looking confused, with question marks all around its head, signifying that the change in mental state is most likely going to be a change to mental confusion and delirium. /end ID]

Remember, heat stroke kills and heat exhaustion can become heat stroke if left untreated. Carry cold water and even a portable fan if needed. To all those working outside, try your very best to take breaks and keep hydrated. We should kill Governor Abbott for taking away water breaks for those working outside.

i feel so bad whenever the alphabet completionist guy shows up on a post and the post is so close to getting all the letters. like if it were me i would throw in a "quiz" or a "xylophone" or a "veracity" just for that guy. who cares if the post doesn't make sense 100%ing the alphabet matters more.

white people please just purchase native artwork and jewelry from native people i keep seeing idiot white people be like “waaah i wish i could support native creators but its cultural appropriation” girl why would beaders sell you their earrings then. just dont get a medicine wheel or a thunderbird then like damn it is that easy

anexperimentallife

If Native folks are making it to sell to white people with the approval of their tribe, it’s not “appropriation”–its support and appreciation! So yes, buy that native-made dream catcher, but not the mass produced fakes made by white people. Like, you can go to a pow wow and buy native crafts there, too.

This semester in college we’ve been working with a company in an indigenous museum to help their sales

They work with native artists in all of Brazil, so the site is in portuguese
