Oh The Show That My High School Theatre Company Closed 2 Months Ago Had Over 200 Props If We're Counting

Reblog if you think public libraries are important and should be maintained.

yay a post about arthritis! thank you!

Seeing people say that arthritis isn't disabling in the year 2023 sure gives me some. . . not great feelings. Like yeah, cool, thanks for completely undermining the decade or so of horrible pain I've experienced, my gradual loss of mobility, the constant fatigue and confusion (because rheumatoid arthritis affects more than just your joints!), the ableism I've faced from everyone in my life, and the degradation of my fine motor skills as the pain in my fingers and wrists especially gets worse and worse.

Also the ageism in it. . . "My grandparent has arthritis, that doesn't make them disabled." Idk how to tell you this bud but pretty much every elderly person in the world is disabled in some way because bodies break down and start doing weird shit naturally. Sorry that you see aging and disability as inherently contradictory but it's not my fault that you're so determined to gatekeep the label of "disabled" from people that you can't show even a bit of compassion to people whose experiences are different from yours.

Anyway @ fellow arthritic people I know this sucks so fucking bad and that no one takes us seriously but I promise you are not alone ily 🪻

some senior guys just came walking down the halls with a Bluetooth speaker playing 'Call Me Maybe' by Carly Rae Jepsen, and they're singing along slightly off-key but they look so happy. this is the energy we need.

My Annoying, Homophobic & Misogynistic Classmate (i hope this doesn't become a series)

So, there's this guy in my science class who sits next to me. My science teacher changes our spots every month so I'm gonna be stuck with this guy for the rest of the month.

But, how is he annoying, homophobic & misogynistic, you ask? Well, today in class we were learning about the pros & cons of asexual and sexual reproduction, when someone in my class asked about surrogates.

My science teacher explained very well, talking about in vitro fertilization, and explaining how else it worked, how the egg is fertilized in a lab and whatever. Then, the Annoying Classmate asks why people actually use surrogation. My science teacher then explains that the most common reason is if the mother isn't able to carry the child, or give birth, or is sterile. And would you guess what the Annoying Classmate said to me?

He said, word for word: "If I was a girl and that happened to me I would just give up."

Like, okay??? Did I ask you?? Did you have to tell me???

Also, during the lesson, he turned around to some guy behind him, stuck out his hand, and said:

"Give me a handshake if you're homophobic."

I wasn't able to see what happened, because I was trying to take notes, but then after a few seconds, Annoying Classmate says:

"Glad we have something in common."

I can't believe I have to sit next to him for the entire month.

Hope this doesn't become a series, but I'll update you if he does anything else annoying or controversial, if ya'll wish.
