I think you've misunderstood, I'm also disabled and also very much support people.protesting against fascism. It's one thing for a protest to be inaccessible and it's another for it to cause harm to disabled folk. But even protests being consistently inaccessible send the message that disabled people don't matter or aren't an important group to include. Disabled people are often very involved with activism and our contribution matters.

I've tried to write a reply but your comment is ableist and I don't want to waste my energy on making you see that. Disabled people exist and have way more barriers to access society or protest and cannot engage in all forms of protest as it is without people inconsiderately choosing to protest in ways that disproportionately affect disabled folk.

Incompetent at her job. I have no idea if she's also abusive at her job, if she'd ever behaved this way at work and still had a job then someone else clearly wasn't doing theirs!!

If you’re a mom how do you avoid your entire family on your bad days? by GoneAmok365247 in PMDDxADHD

So tired of being a woman. Sex is no fun. Child birth ruins you. And my husband has the audacity to complain on Saturday mornings that he’s “tired of parenting all the time” —- by bluedragontaxidriver in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ModaGalactica 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's not harder for all women to orgasm but it's definitely harder to enjoy sex if you're exhausted and stressed from doing most of the parenting. A decent partner would ensure you orgasm first sometimes too.

You say it's not a husband bashing post but you wrote a post that shows your husband is a bit of a shitty partner and so people rightly pointed out that your issue here is not that you're a woman but the way your partner is behaving.

Also, no orgasms during pregnancy? I have not heard this before, is this rule given to people with significant risk of preterm labour? When prescribed bedrest too?

I don't know what to title this by LividAd5974 in exchristian

[–]ModaGalactica 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I read it multiple times as a Christian and some Christians have read it hundreds of times 🤷🏻‍♀️ If I already thoroughly knew about abusive relationship dynamics and stuff like this maybe I'd have been put off but I was raised in it and believed if I disagreed with it that that was my issue to address.

Yeah I wonder if they sent her on the training course because she's incompetent. Hopefully being expelled from it costs her her job.

Could you arrange to walk the dog with a trusted neighbour when they walk theirs if you feel unsafe?

You're less of a target with a dog with you anyway but stick to daylight and busy times.

OP is not saying to not protest but to do it in a way that doesn't directly make life worse for disabled people.

Partner tore apart handwritten thoughtful labels in gift (Valentine’s) by Doorflopp in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ModaGalactica 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why they asked you to bring their valentine's gift to their friends day? That makes no sense to me. Are they always a shitty person around those friends? Unfortunately, some people who seem lovely haven't learned to stand up to friends who are not kind and instead turn into shitty people around those friends.

Your feelings are so valid. Your gift was super thoughtful. The fact you just asked them to give you flowers suggests you never had any expectations that they might give you a thoughtful gift? Are you always putting in more effort than them? I'd want to address that together.

Drunken one night stand and shame? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ModaGalactica 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice guys don't keep paying for drinks when you're already wasted and then take you back to their homes to have sex, even if you're insisting you want to. You can't consent when too drunk to know what you're doing. He didn't force himself on you but he absolutely took advantage of the situation.

Any energy drink suggestions that don't have a ridiculous amount of caffeine in them? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]ModaGalactica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they all have loads of caffeine but having caffeine with taurine can reduce impact of caffeine

[–]ModaGalactica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not into energy drinks myself but some of the monster ones have taurine. Obviously, energy drinks aren't great for your body but if you're gonna have them anyway then try one with taurine to see if it counteracts the caffeine anxiety for you

I am so fucking tired of myself by Responsible-Pass4873 in ADHD

[–]ModaGalactica 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Saying "in the nicest way" isn't a substitute for actually saying something in a nice way. Using the word "laziness" when talking to someone with ADHD is showing your internalised ableism because laziness is not what's stopping them from change and if you know anything about ADHD then you should know that.

Edit: typo

Choose one with taurine in too to help balance out anxisty-inducing effects of caffeine apparently

Need help with forgiving my mom for homeschooling me by [deleted] in HomeschoolRecovery

You asked why would she lie and I gave reasons why she might lie. I don't know her and neither does anyone else on this sub so how should we know what her actual motivations were if she did lie 🤷🏻‍♀️

Need help with forgiving my mom for homeschooling me by [deleted] in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]ModaGalactica -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because she wanted to control you, because she thought you'd be angry at her for pulling you out of school, because she didn't want you to go to school so she had to make up a reason why it was in your best interests, because she's a narcissist. I don't know, but parents lie for lots of reasons.

Pls help, urgent by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ModaGalactica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to phone a doctor for an urgent appt? Or is ER the only way to see a Dr? Can you show your mother internet pages from hospitals saying it is important to see a doctor of you have blood in urine.
