Happy Disability Pride Month, everyone!

Happy Disablity Pride Month to everyone who is *just* on the cusp of being ‘abled looking’ that you don’t think you’re qualified to count as disabled.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who has had a documented disability since the day they were born but has never checked the ‘i have a disability’ box on those workplace forms because you don’t think it counts.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone whose parents convinced them that because they could *mostly* act like the other kids that their disability wasn’t a problem.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone whose parents who helped you with tasks on one hand while expecting you to keep up with your abled siblings on the other.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone whose religion told you that when you died and went to heaven your body would be fixed and you would become ‘perfect’.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who realizes that a certain thing they go through every day for years is not a thing everyone just goes through, because that’s just their forever level of normal.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who has to listen to abled people say ‘i know how you feel because x thing happened to me so i get it’ even though they don’t because you never got a ‘before’.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who has to listen to abled people say ‘me too’ when you try and tell them literally anything.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone with a disability who didn’t know July was Disability Pride Month.

Reblogging this as it's important.

So, India is dying.

Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.

If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.

A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.

There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.

There is no plan.

Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.

Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.

We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.

This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.

We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.

People are dying.

People are dying.

People are dying and there is no plan.

More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.

My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.

Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.

But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.

She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.

So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.

If you can, donate.

Or spread the word.

Help. Please.

100 Followers Milestone + Revamp Announcement!

Thank you so much for all the support you've given me and my friends over the past year. It means a lot to me to have over a hundred of you following my blog's antics. I'm sorry for the lack of original posts as of late, I've been going through a lot of transitions post-graduation and gearing up for college. In better news, I have been working on something very special for this week. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- In honor of Sagaverse's first anniversary and the first chapter's completion, I plan on revamping Lucid Loneliness for all of you! There was a lot more going on around that time than the original showed off. Thank you all again, and I hope you have a good rest of your week. -Levi-Weaver
