HTTYD au were they all work at the zoo! I’ve only seen modern au’s where the dragons are pets or cars, but I always thought Toothless would make a great panther. Finding animal counterparts for the other dragons was tricky, but I’m pretty happy :P
You know I love how so many people are like “respect boundaries respect consent” until it’s time to respect people w OCD who can’t shake hands or be touched or when an autistic person tells their family member they can’t give hugs or when a chronically ill person tells you “no I can’t do this thing” and you think “maybe if I just make them do it anyway it’ll make them stronger” or when a mentally ill person or someone who has been abused is like “I don’t want to be around this person/thing it’s triggering” and you get people guilting them to “just get over it”
If you’re about consent and boundaries, good, you should be, but remember to keep that energy when moms of autistic kids are like “I still hug my child even tho it makes them have panic attacks” or when someone’s like “yeah they said they don’t want to be around this person cause it’s “triggering” but I’m their friend so they should do it for me” or when a disabled person says they can’t go up the stairs and you’re begging them to “try anyway”
Don’t lose that mindset, or that energy when it’s time to respect the boundaries or consent of mentally ill and disabled people.

“If autism isn’t caused by environmental factors and is natural why didn’t we ever see it in the past?”
We did, except it wasn’t called autism it was called “Little Jonathan is a r*tarded halfwit who bangs his head on things and can’t speak so we’re taking him into the middle of the cold dark forest and leaving him there to die.”

“[I]t is actually more expensive to be poor than not poor. If you can’t afford the first month’s rent and security deposit you need in order to rent an apartment, you may get stuck in an overpriced residential motel. If you don’t have a kitchen or even a refrigerator and microwave, you will find yourself falling back on convenience store food, which — in addition to its nutritional deficits — is also alarmingly overpriced. If you need a loan, as most poor people eventually do, you will end up paying an interest rate many times more than what a more affluent borrower would be charged. To be poor — especially with children to support and care for — is a perpetual high-wire act.”

I really need some help with getting a wheelchair. I was trapped in my house for almost 3 weeks because of mobility issues, my crutches aren't always enough. Because of serious side-effects, I can't keep using the steroid treatments that have kept me mobile.
I need a decent chair that won't cause further joint problems or stress fractures with my brittle bones. If I reach my goal of $1100 I can get a decent chair. If I go over the cost of the chair I'll donate the rest to Intersex Human Rights Australia (https://ihra.org.au/). If I somehow go way way over, I might be able to afford a momentum assisted chair.
Anything helps, and I appreciate it immensely.
I really really need this. Feeling trapped is awful, and with a chair it's at least possible for people to help me get out, even when my shoulders are fucked.
Hopefully the chair I want is still on sale when I can afford it.
Please share or donate. I need this so badly.
