I’ve been trying to get a formal assessment for dyslexia in Canada for over a year and finally got into a place to try and get it done a few months back.

I did an intake and got ghosted for 5 weeks.

The psychologist called today out of the blue and was being an ableist shithead about my cognitive limitations for the testing.

I had words. I’m so tired of having to explain the level of disability I deal with and fight through every goddamn day. People who live normal lives and work normal hours will never, ever understand. A psychologist of all people - should.

I’m still pissed.

I miss participating in protests. When I was able, there was a typical degree of risk. It's real risk, but it's ameliorated by solidarity and preparation.

Now, I am targeted by police and agitators both. If my caregiver is injured or detained, I become a stationary obstacle. If I am injured, detained, or otherwise directly impacted, I may die or become further disabled, due to the nature of my conditions and care.

If you protest, what do you do, if you're mobility-limited?

I finished #reading We Are Never Meeting in Real Life by Samantha Irby. 4.0 ⭐

I laugh-snorted at least once. I, too, have worked in customer service, prefer to wear pajamas, and can't stand summer.

#LongCovid energy crash day.

Today I have:

- collapsed and was unable to move for over an hour

- had physical help to go to the toilet (including holding me up while I adjusted clothes)

- slept for a total of several hours

- eaten only when I was helped to sit up and the plate was put in my hand

- had a ten minute conversstion, by the end of which my words were slurred

- typed a couple of toots

- nothing else

I "don't seem #disabled" because you don't see days like this.

I had enough energy to play with some acrylic paints. My plan was just to add some areas of color to art journal pages to get some backgrounds started. I got completely immersed in the way the colors blended and layered, I started glazing and scumbling and using dry brush techniques to pull out areas of texture and suddenly it hit me that *I* am still in here.

I’m still me, just my body has changed.

I felt joyful and alive in that moment and it was…everything.

I've been a She-Hulk fan for a looong time. I really liked her show! I think Jen was super in-character, the 4th wall breaking & comedic style was VERY Shulkie & the changes made to fit her into the #MCU were good, but either way we'll always have the #comics 💚 I've cosplayed her a ton & will make more cosplays in the future. I'm disabled so in some of my photos you'll see me use mobility devices & in others you'll see me casually lean 😎 😂 #SheHulk #Marvel #cosplay #Avengers #disabled #spoonie

Hi!
I'm Jude / :lapis:​ Either is fine.
I've published fiction (and am still trying to) under the name Rae A. Shell, but I will probably get confused if you call me that lol.

I live in Nebraska.
According to
native-land.ca/
I live on unsurrendered
Očhéthi Šakówiŋ
and
Pâri (Pawnee) land.

Currently unemployed, but hey, if you know of some ArcGIS or XML work where I live @ me.

If you are considering College / University in Nebraska: DM me so I can give you some details you won't get on tours.

I got my BA in Anthropology and came to the conclusion Anthropology is a colonialist pile of shit (You could totally decolonize Anthropology, but my classes never talked about that. It was just the white cishet allosexual abled patriarchy in the classes I took)

Fan of
#Earthbound or #Suikoden a lot of #AtelierSeries and #StoryOfSeasons games, not to mention #RuneFactory! Big :stardewvalley:​ fan too. #HadesGame is one of my special interests. I'm a big fan of #TWEWY / #NEOTWEWY but we know that will never get a sequel :blobsob:

Very much looking forward to #EiyudenChronicle so when rising (or the main game) comes out I probably won't shut up about it! That's what timed mutes are for lol.

I like getting sad listening to PS2 music :blobcheeky: If you see me mutter about Hymmnos / Ar Tonelico or Shadow Hearts, you know why!

I also like #Crochet #Fiberarts and I'm getting into #Knitting and #CrossStitch lately! I like reading #Books and #Webcomics

(especially #YoungAdult )

I'm a big #Podcast fan, but I usually talk about that elsewhere!

Me defiendo bastante bien.

I have like 4-5 fediverse accounts, but lately don't have the energy for all of them, so I'm mainly on here, #BookWyrm, and Booktoot.

I Boost a lot of pictures of Cats (and sometimes dogs) so if you don't like that, either turn off my ability to boost or mute those keywords.

I'm really shy so please interact (by posting/replying) before following!
