BIKE RANT! On the language we use about disabilities. (Part 2 of 2)
The phrase “differently abled” and why it’s silly. Systems in place that make life for people with disabilities harder have nothing to do with their other abilities or different abilities. If you think the word disabled is negative then it shows how you feel about disabled people, and that you aren’t willing to do more than you want to do in order to fully integrate the disabled in your life.

A book recommendation for witches who don’t believe in coincidences. P.S. if you are the person who sold this book to ThriftBooks, please drop the name of that perfume in the comments. 😂

BIKE RANT! On the language we use about disabilities. (Part 1 of 2)
The phrase “differently abled” and why it’s silly. Systems in place that make life for people with disabilities harder have nothing to do with their other abilities or different abilities. A broken elevator in a building that is supposed to be accessible should not require different abilities.

Happy Disability Pride month! Some gentle reminders for our non-disabled friends.
Disabled people aren’t here to insure you.
Not all disabilities are visible.
Disabled people don’t owe others an explanation.
Disabled or person with disabilities are the right language. We are not differently abled.
Disabled is the only protected class that anyone can join. One in four people will be disabled. The ADA was only passed 36 years ago, but it is under attack today.

Somehow I have landed on the side of the clock app where people rail on cyclists. I saw a post from a driver who was in an accident and a cyclist stopped to let her know that she shouldn’t have her car in the bike lane. Yeah, that cyclist was being obtuse, silly, and not reading the situation. But hear me out, I have a bit of an explanation. I have had to slam on the brakes twice *this week alone* for drivers who weren’t looking. I was hit by a car a few years ago. Cyclists are protective of our space because we don’t know which cars or people are going to be paying attention, and we know there are a lot of people who don’t think we should exist on the same roads. So yeah, we’re not always our best version of ourselves, but can you blame us?

Some strawberry moon yoga magick
💛🍓💛 summer is a busy and challenging season, so I meditated on challenge as an invitation to do hard things with ease. Thanks Jeri from The Cauldron for the simmer pot inspiration!
