Vote for Norman, he’s from a disturbing song about religious abuse. Don’t know the source media? Spend less than 5 minutes listening to this song.  (Trigger warnings for religious abuse/religious trauma, disturbing imagery, and bugs including spiders.) Now you do. Also, the name “Norman Minecraft” was decided by the fans.

Petition to Address Ableist and Sanist Content at the ISSTD Conference and McLean Hospital

Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

The International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD)  recently had a panel conference on “DID and social media,” featuring harmful and offensive content denouncing self-diagnosis and spreading the narrative that most systems online are faking it for the attention. In this conference, they showed footage of several Systems, without their consent, in order to publicly shame them and use them as examples of the “Imitative DID” that they claimed was rampant online. As a non-disordered System, we stand with those with DID and against those who would spread harmful claims that a majority of Plurals are lying about their Plurality for online clout.

This petition was created by The Plural Association, an organization created by and for Plurals, including those with professionally diagnosed DID.

Took me a long time to realize, but the main reason Jayce's speech to Viktor didn't resonate with me, that it felt so hollow is because it's not the message I needed.

I don't know about other disabled people, or even specifically chronically ill folks... but for me, I haven't needed "you're beautiful/there's nothing wrong with you" regardless of how nice it would be to hear.

The message I feel is so sorely lacking from this media and things like it is "you're worth it." Viktor was suffering, in pain, dealing with the grief of death in so many ways. It wasn't about having something "wrong" with him; these things were objectively hurting him and it's normal/valid to feel negative about them. Specifically anger, which is so often suppressed because it's considered an unpalatable part of grief.

It takes a lot to care about someone with circumstances like that. You have to deal with the concepts of death, pain, uncertainty. You have to see your loved one suffer. They'll snap sometimes, behave emotionally, regardless of how much they control their feelings. Viktor pushed back a good bit, like in the bridge scene.

I never wanted to be told there's nothing bad about my disabilities. I wanted to know that if the bad bled over, I'd still be worth it.

USA people! Buy NOTHING Feb 28 2025. Not anything. 24 hours. No spending. Buy the day before or after but nothing. NOTHING. February 28 2025. Not gas. Not milk. Not something on a gaming app. Not a penny spent. (Only option in a crisis is local small mom and pop. Nothing. Else.) Promise me. Commit. 1 day. 1 day to scare the shit out of them that they don't get to follow the bullshit executive orders. They don't get to be cowards. If they do, it costs. It costs.

Then, if you can join me for Phase 2. March 7 2025 thtough March 14 2025? No Amazon. None. 1 week. No orders. Not a single item. Not one ebook. Nothing. 1 week. Just 1.

If you live outside the USA boycott US products on February 28 2025 and stand in solidarity with us and also join us for the week of no Amazon.

Are you with me?

Spread the word.

please know that being disabled does not make you incapable of being ableist .

have faced ableism from other disabled people . who thought they know more about my experience with my disabilities than I do . or who thought that me being disabled is some how " threatening " them being disabled too , as if can not both be disabled .

have had other disabled people make rude comments about my disabilities . when I said that what they said was ableist , they question me , say " but I disabled " .

yes , you also disabled , but can still be ableist / say ableist things .

you not immune to say rude things / make mistake . that is ok . you just need admit when you make mistake or say rude things or be ableist . accept it happen some time and learn from it . otherwise , still being ableist .

ignoring disabled people when they tell you being ableist is being more ableist . listen to disabled people , including when you are disabled too .

This describes the Hollow Knight.

it's always so fascinating and heartbreaking when a character in a story is simultaneously idolized and abused. a chosen prophet destined for martyrdom. a child prodigy forced to grow up too fast. a powerful warrior raised as nothing but a weapon. there's just something so uniquely messed up about singing someone's praises whilst destroying them.

Pls do not reblog anything with the old disability pride flag, it does cause seizure and migraines, please use the new one which was created by the same person with the feedbacks of many other disabled people.

This is the safe one:

Dont use the zigzag one, your making disabled space inaccessible for a part of the community.
