As A Recently Diagnosed Autistic Who Also Has Had Artrosis Since I Was 13 And Suspecting Elher Danlos

As a recently diagnosed autistic who also has had artrosis since I was 13 and suspecting elher danlos syndrome, raised in poverty and currently unable to work enough hours to pay my own rent (therefore forced to stay with my parents) I would need that money even just to afford therapy, the medical appointments and a pair of decent knee braces, maybe even the painkillers or a cane, bc I have been in a spot where the pain was so great I could barely hold my own weight while standing and had to take my dads old crutches. I know wheelchairs and prosthetic limbs are so expensive, and they don't last forever, it's not a one time investment. Like, being disabled is so much more expensive than the average person would even imagine.

money is such an underrated accessibility option.

like people want to think any disabled person who is after money is morally suspect some way, because they're not asking for "treatments" or "accommodations" like a lot of our issues can be fixed way more easily with money. can't drive? paying for a taxi is often one of the more accessible alternatives. can't cook? you can pay more to have prepared food delivered to you. food restrictions? that food straight up costs more money. can't clean? you can pay for someone to do that. house inaccessible? having (lots) of money can help with that, you get the gist.

having money won't make us abled. it also won't stop our symptoms from being distressing, painful, or debilitating. but there's a huge gap in experience between the average poor disabled person and someone who's actually wealthy. you can buy your way out of some of the difficult situations most disabled people are left to rot in. wanting money, needing money, asking for money is pretty natural when it's such a useful tool. why get so weird about disabled people wanting money like i'm pretty sure everyone wants money anyway

Today's turn is Flaminia, here with both her main partners. Oc created for roleplaying, fandom: Percy Jackson.

She was born a demigodess in the 1800s, daughter of Venus, and ascended to godhood after losing her life in battle defending the legion against a horde of monsters. Her domain is polyamory, which is very Roman but was completely forgotten in her times.

You asked and I delivered

Luffy saying he likes sunglasses because nobody can see what he is looking at but he’s in gear 5 and his looney tunes eyes go over the sunglasses in a curve directed at Zoro’s chest.

IT'S ALIVE

This is a continuation of @twenty-qs story "the rebellious bird" that they gave up for adoption (which is tagged at the start of the chapter) it was all done with permission and respecting as much as I can the info given to me as guidance. It's structured so that the first story is the first chapter/prologue and my story starts exactly were the original left.

Hope I did it justice and have a nice reading!

Also, I'm gonna post soon the character redesigns for both Law and toy!Rosi

An artist : Aw man! I saw my arts were reposted on Instagram. I’ve asked them to take my arts down but they ignored me.

Me : Say no more! Click this link, then click ‘fill out this form’. Fill the form and wait for about 1-2 days, the staffs will remove the image you were reporting from the reposter’s account :^)

3, she's definitely weird and technically I never got much into her sexuality but I can definitely see her as some flavor of queer

EVERY OC LIST GOT THA:

-constantly anxious who is 5 seconds away from a panic attack at all times -obsessed with blood -weird lesbian -5 seconds away from beating the shit out of everyone -the mascot -the one who's actually drawn/written about 99% of the time

And little explanation here, the most famous musical note is called a chrome, which is half a beat, and this sign is the equivalent in terms of time but as a pause⬇️
