V2 (he/him)

Just 2 more tests left and I can relax... Which is good, because I've not been able to do much at all, with all the homework, testing, and clinicals. 😔 I mean, I'll still be working, but some free time is better than none.
For once, though, I'm actually looking forward to summer! 😃

You should fight for disabled people because it’s the right thing to do. Ableism feeds eugenics. No one is expendable. Our value should never be tied to economic contributions.

Failing that, do it because one day you will become disabled. Given enough time, almost everyone joins our minority group.

It's Time to Throw Away the 'Coulda, Woulda, Shouldas' and Practice Radical Rest When you're chronically ill you can't push your body the way non disabled people do. You have to learn to rest. There's few words more damaging to us than the 'coulda, woulda, shouldas'

“We aren’t taught how to rest. We’re taught how to push. To hide our pain. To say ‘we’re fine’.

To plaster a smile on our face and pretend that we’re ok when we are actively causing ourselves harm.”

My latest article is on radical rest - and throwing away the “coulda woulda shouldas”

(Hope y'all liked the little story I made with the random pics I took this morning! I probably should have slept instead, but I'm too anxious about my appointment in a few hours... and the test on Monday... and the paper that's due toward the end of this month that I haven't started on...😅)

Ah, home sweet home... and now to refill my-

...I lost my friggin' cup out there, didn't I? Son of a-

After another hour, I finally made it home... after trying to enter three other houses that looked exactly like mine. Good thing it's such an overcast day, or I might have gotten a bit toasty out here!

Whatever the place once was, it was clear I wasn't alone... between that and the phones ringing at me, I chose to leave. That was entirely too much social interaction for one day!

Found what I'd hoped would be shelter from the sun while I try to get my bearings. Few too many windows for my liking, though...

...then, hours later, found another place to stop... mostly to wonder which direction home was.

Went on a little adventure today. Found a lovely place to stop to read...

At least I can admit that I'm already burned out. Of work, of school, of just about everything. 😔

At least there's only a year left, right? Right??? 😟

...well, at least I'm not sick any more. Maybe this week I can actually stay awake enough to go to an online party or something...

Yes, I should be studying for a test and am actively procrastinating on homework. No, pointing this out won't actually make me work any harder on it. 🤷

To all my trans friends out there: Please know that you can come to me if things are getting rough for you. You are all safe with me and I love you. What is going on in this hellhole of a country is inhumane and abhorrent and I stand for none of it. Be strong friends. I'm here for you. 🩵🤍🩷

Someday, I will learn how to decide on dancing animations that don't make my avi look like he's having a seizure...

That day is not this day, but at least I have something to aspire to. 🤷

Well, I might not have said anything, but I did manage to stay at an online party for more than just the amount of time it takes for me to realize there are actually people there...

Maybe there's hope for me yet.

...I wonder if it'll take another two months for me to be able to speak... (O_O')

...I wonder if I'll ever quit panicking when I get on these online things and suddenly realize there's people nearby... Or panicking when I go somewhere irl and suddenly realize there's people nearby.

Social anxiety is brutal... 😞

Update 2: realized I forgot the minors dni part. Tacked it onto my bio. Apologies to the one I had to block, but, like, I'm too old and tired for this shit. This account isn't for being a role model or anyone's dad, this is for me liking art of all ratings.

Always 💖

Don't make me tap the sign

lore runs deep and snow just keeps falling

update: ...the last bit of that aged poorly, I realize, as I'm still in fact dealing with the dumbest decisions known to man, just irl instead of on the internet. This is what I get for having faith in humanity, I guess. :/

Y'all can call me V2. I write things, draw things (poorly), and am generally a pretty chill dude.

Antis/Terfs and the lot need not interact, you're just gonna get blocked if I see ya.

I'm here to enjoy the art, the culture, and the freedom of not dealing with the dumbest decisions known to man.

yeah
