it's been sort of strange thinking about the ergonomics of being bedridden over the last half a year  the stressors my body faces every day are quite a bit different from those I faced when I was mostly performing violin for a living, and also different from when I became unable to perform outside but could still stream  

during the streaming heavy year, I did have to worry about my elbows, wrists, and hands, but they did not have endure the stress of being at sharp angles nearly as much as when I use my phone or read a book while sitting propped up in bed  the inside corners of my elbows have especially been in danger and I have had to take extra care to both take stress off when I can as well as making sure that they get to be straight and unstressed while asleep  

trying to find proper back support and a position that would avoid giving myself a headache a day was another issue I had to work on, and unfortunately, failure means I have to spend the rest of the day rather miserable and un more pain than I would otherwise have to endure  

and then on top of that, learning how to hold my tools like my phone or tablet over long periods of time without stressing a single muscle or muscle group has felt like a nearly impossible task

Am 24. Oktober ist es soweit! ✨ Gemeinsam mit Ulla Kenntner spreche ich in der Akademie Waldschlösschen über ein Thema, das viel zu selten im Fokus steht: die Lebensrealität von queeren Menschen mit Behinderung im ländlichen Raum.⬇️

Question for my fellow #disabled folks. What can we do for the #resistance? Writing and calling our officials only does so much. I live in a deep blue state, so I know that mine are already voting the right ways and taking the right actions, so I feel like if be preaching to the choir. I DO contact them, but it doesn't feel like enough.

How can we resist and keep safe?
