Disabled Queers - Tumblr Posts

Pride is not pride without including disabled queer people. 🌈

some reminders as we go from queer pride month into disabled pride month:

queer disabled people exist! we're not special rare unicorns collecting shit that "makes us special"

a lot of queer events aren't disability-friendly and a lot of disabled events aren't queer-friendly, sort yourselves out because once again, queer disabled people exist

queer liberation and disabled liberation are connected, you can't have one without the other

queers don't have a monopoly on pride, disabled pride month existing isn't appropriating fuck all from queer people

abled queers: please stop centring yourselves in july by calling it queer pride month 2.0, disabled pride month is already way less visible and you're not helping

the queer community has an ableism problem and the disabled community has a queerantagonism problem, leaving queer disabled people feeling unsafe and unwelcome in either and being stuck in tiny fringe communities

it's not "pride month and disabled pride month". disabled pride month is literally also pride month. june is QUEER pride month. again, queers don't have a monopoly on pride, queer pride is not the default

july is not wrath month, it is pride month

stop using "autistic" as an insult for queer people you don't like

queer disabled people are awesome

i’m pretty sick and tired of people in my life who don’t experience chronic pain trying to tell me how to manage my pain.

like i’m trying to manage it the best i can, but these people are focused on “fixing”. i don’t need to have people on my back trying to tell me to take herbs to fix my pain, as if i haven’t already tried it.

there’s no compassion behind these comments either, it’s just an abled savior complex.
