Are there more Disabled people on Etheria?

 We've already talked about Entrapta, about her being Autistic, and about her relationship with Hordak, who've we've talked about has Chronic Pain. Now, are there more Disabled People in Etheria? The answer is YES, let's see it step by step. 

*Many amputees think Scorpia is a good allegory of this Disability, because of the way her claws interact with the world. Per se, the character has motor problems which dyspraxia could help explain, and even has a not-so-typícal train of thought.

*Octavia and someone in Huntara's gang both have just one eye.

*One of the Starlight siblings is an amputee,they're not Etherian though. 

*Sea Hawk presents many ADHD signs.

*Beautiful Catra presents the 9 key signs of BPD. It's implied that Melog acts like the Catgirl's service dog.

*Adora has been labeled as having ADHD or OCD.

*Rogelioo, the Horde's lizard boy, doesn't speak in an Understandable way. Bad news though: Only Lonnie and Kyle understand him, he isn't given any form of AAC. In my fanfic, which i may translate, he is Deaf, and he signs.

*Mermista, because of her low noise tolerance and constant tiredness, has been labeled as a Chronically Ill woman, probably a Lyme patient. 

*Shadow Weaver has movements and voice that could suggest Chronic Fatigue.

*Glimmer isn't able to use her powers unlimitedly. This has been suggested as a metaphor for many chronic illnesses, such as narcolepsy (let's not forget the time she fell asleep in Mystacor's springs)

*Imp, Hordak's little "pet" has echolalia, and communicates based on that, but many fanarts have him signing.

*Not any clone looks neurotypical!!

*Kyle ISN'T neurotypical, ok?

*Perfuma hides it, but she has REALLY BIG anxiety, and so do Lonnie and Queen Angella.

*Bow doesn't look neurotypical either, but who knows? Same could be applied to Mara, as she was naive, had a great sense of justice, and appreciated details (flowers, pie) really much. Even King Micah doeesn't look like a typical adult to me.

Of course, most stuff is fan headcanon, but many, specially Scorpia's and Catra's have really good points. 

But.. why aren't we more accesible, then? We definetely have to GET RID OF #Cripbaiting, which willl be our next topic.

15 Reasons to NOT support Autism $peaks.

Well... this post is important… I know it will be highly polemical… But it's necessary. And now that i've got the spoons (we'll talk about it later) to tell it, i will. Unfrtunately for the big mayority of the Autistic Community, Autism $peaks is the greatest Autism Charity in the USA. MOST OF US HATE THIS "CHARITY". And here are a few reasons you should NEVER support them. 1. They show Autistic kids as burdens to their families, as "ghosts" and other REALLY STIGMATIZING analogies. No kid deserves that kind of rethoric (they have even described us as monsters). Even non-vocalizing or COMORBIDLY intellectually disabled Autistics are people and JUST BECAUSE OF THAT deserve as much respect as EVERYONE ELSE. 2. They use functioning labels. Simply, FUNCTIONING LABELS DON'T WORK. Due to them, "low functioning" individuals (commonly those who are non-vocalizing or depend on someone due to COMORBITIES)  are pitied, while "high-functionin...

What's the Social Model Of Disability? (I'M NOT "DIFFERENTLY ABLED")

"Asking for basic rights isn't too much to ask" -Diane Guerrero This is gonna be one of the most controversial articles i have ever done. But i've gotta be brave enough to do it. They asked for it in school, it's important for me and, as Pippi Longstockings said once when they asked why she walked backwards "The question is, why not?" Recently, the word "differently abled" is being introduced when talking about people who, becausse of X or Y, NEED ACOMMODATIONS. BUT I THINK IT'S AN EUPHEMISM, AND IT CAN BE EXPLAINED THRUGH THE SOCIAL MODEL OF DISABILITY. This model explains that IT'S SOCIETY WHO DISABLES US, EVEN MORE THAN OUR DIAGNOSES. AND IT'S SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DON'T LIKE OUR STYLE. So, what acommodations does an Autistic like me need? Basically, our sensory processing is different. Evven, with background noise, i won't be able to hear you. You gotta speak LOUD, SLOW AND CLEAR, so i can undertand you, or at lea...

El que calla NO siempre otorga: Sobre la intimidad forzada y tu gran afán de saber de mi vida privada

 Tw: Capacitismo, familia, autolesión, eugenesia, misoginia, ecofascismo, pedofilia, problemas del colon, mayúsculas.  He visto miles de posts de gente que va más avanzada en sus procesos de dieta Apta Para Veganos (APV), en los que se pregunta a toda la demás gente: "Oye, ¿Por qué no te cambias a dieta APV?".  Y entonces digo: "Aquí vamos de nuevo". ES POR MIS PROBLEMAS DEL COLON. Y POR MIS MEDICAMENTOS QUE NO PRETENDO MEZCLAR CON SUPLEMENTOS.  Y POR OTRAS COSAS DE LAS CUALES NO TE TIENES QUE ENTERAR FORZOSAMENTE.  Muchas veces a la gente Discapacitada se nos pide revelar información que NOS INCOMODA MUCHO REVELAR. *Las adecuaciones que necesitamos, incluyendo sus razones y si sabemos sus pros y contras. *Sobre nuestros síntomas incómodos (autolesiones, incontinencia, tics verbales) *Sobre nuestras situaciones familiares/sexuales/románticas *Sobre el origen de nuestra discapacidad, Y SI ES PREVENIBLE. Entre muuuuchas otras cosas.  Mucha gente puede venir y...
