It really does suck when you try to call out someone you actually kind of respect and either get a bad response or none at all.

I wouldn't trade in any of my identities for anything, but ngl, being multiply marginalized sucks.

And when I transferred I never asked again bc embarrassed, internalized ableism, super crip.

I was fairly fortunate as far as my accommodations.

My parents are white. Middle class. Good school. Small town. There was job flexibility to go to SO many meetings.

[Danielle @DanielleShinLee]

I took the test w/o accommodation bc I felt bad about the meltdown.

It is known, @recitrachel is a kid-lit community treasure. For her b'day, I want to donate a bundle of books to a library in need, in her name.

Is that you? Follow her, tweet me.

I'll pick a library to get @ca_london @Bibliogato & @cindypon's duologies on Friday. US only.

Please Universe:

Let me someday safely have a baby.

And also please let me work in Redacted Dream Department.

And finish a novel or two on the side.

Good thread is good.

I've been largely quiet about the season four episode of Queer Eye but I will say this, If you're not a disabled Black person I don't care about your opinion on the matter.

Thanks for getting back to me

[Shay Erlich @Shay_Erlich]

So many folks didn’t even mention he was a Black disabled man when they started talking about this episode. This nuance is IMPORTANT. Cultural factors can’t be separated from someone’s interpretation of their disability.

I'm pescetarian bc of factory farming.

I'm also a disordered eater.

Guilt will probably send fish into the "no" list.

I'm not saying "Don't call out hypocrisy."

I'm saying "TW/CW your stuff."

[Danielle @DanielleShinLee]

I'm all for going after the real industries putting plastic in the ocean.

But when you casually, jokingly, etc say "I hope you don't eat fish."

Remember folks have eating disorders/disordered eating.

[Danielle @DanielleShinLee]

The AsAm and Asian communities need to be better about calling out people for things.

It shouldn't be up to other communities to call out our folks.

(Insert other film titles as well.)

It would be so so easy to apologize and recognize and do some work.

@IWriteAllDay_ Agree. I'm going to support the ones I want to support. But it's a buzzkill.
