mh-, re: transportation, ph-, internalized ableism
wow! i can already imagine doctors, family, and maybe a few """friends""" telling me my supposedly-mild orthopedic troubles are 100% treatable and unimpressive and that i don't REALLY need an [insert mobility aid here]! amazing! thanks, me!!
re: transportation, ph-, internalized ableism
like maybe even a wheelchair could have helped me greatly but like,,,,,,,,,, there's gonna be questions and even more ableism from family and friends and i just.... no
re: transportation, ph-, internalized ableism
maybe i should just splurge on ubers/taxis to everywhere when my legs/feet hurt instead of pretending i'm abled and healthy
usa, transportation, 420, sui mention, ph- exaggerated, re: ph-, internalized ableism
also i wish i didn't have to smoke weed to stay alive and/or not unalive myself, because then i could get a driver's license and probably walk/stand less on my worse days 🙃🙃🙃
re: ableism, -
and it's just so friggin humiliating to be vulnerable in front of someone and ask for help only to be yelled at and mocked for it just because i look too healthy or idk what
re: ableism, -
my leg and foot already hurt because i've over exerted myself and i don't wanna walk to the gate, but i also don't have the spoons to get yelled at again for daring to need assistance from a person whose literal job is to assist people in need of assistance

ugh i tried asking for help from one of the airport workers that drives old and disabled people around in a cart, and he yelled at me and asked if i "think this is a taxi of some kind" and if you're ever wondering why i don't like to ask for help, and why i feel like a fake disabled person, shit like this is why. this stuff gets to me real bad
re: israel, religious leader death
i think everyone's staying home because of all the closed streets and highways; the city feels almost empty rn
israel, religious leader death
another thing with really really bad timing for me: a very important rabbi passed away last night, so half the roads in the tel aviv area are completely closed for his funeral: a massive event with mourners coming in from all over the country, that's not in tlv proper but right next to it
re: medical bureaucracy
i called and asked to reschedule and i don't think it'll be any trouble, but it's like, wow, terrible timing
