Im officially in the “started with a bonnet now we hair” stage in my post-surgical recovery.
TW: Weight loss Contrary to what the world tells me about it, I actually like this body. I like it’s rolls and curves. I haven’t always. I’ve tried to hurt it and bury it under clothing and tears. It seems strange to say on the eve of my gastric sleeve surgery, but I still celebrate this figure. As I lose weight, I don’t want my body used as a tool to brow-beat or shame others. I’ve been on the receiving end of that. I just want to say, that no matter the size, I will celebrate my body and encourage others to do the same.
Today is the LAST DAY to vote for my SXSW 2020 panelpicker idea about disability online culture. If you like the work I do, consider upvoting. The link is in my bio! #DisabilitySwipesRight
Good afternoon to disabled people and disabled people only.
Thanks to the Woodhull Sexual Freedom Summit for having me and the lovely @lilyfivetwo and @katyaohh.
Hey lovelies! I could use your help. Please vote for my panel— link in bio! I have the opportunity to be on panel about how disabled people are using the internet to create the representation we have been so lacking. It’s called #DisabilitySwipesRight. Today over in twitter, we’re using the tag to reflect on what online community has meant to us.
