#disabled #disability. #ableism is real, not a joke.

I was diagnosed with #ADHD this year. Can’t believe it took so long. Self diagnosing is valid. US #healthcare sucks, I’m not a fan.

I was also recently diagnosed with #EDS. I’m trying to learn how to not overextend my joints. Apparently, your shoulders aren’t supposed to dislocate when you sleep. Fascinating.

Disability is not a bad word. #Accessibility matters. Glad to see mastodon has image ID feature!

I’m a #therapist by trade, pursuing licensure in my state. I graduated with my #masters in #clinicalpsych in 2020. #PandemicGrad!
I advocate for better #education funding, #housing, #transportation, #climatechange, #acab, #taxtherich.

Big fan of “the personal is political”

I want to go back to grad school. Someday

Not sure how to lump topics, this one will be scattered

#introduction I failed to mention I love #music. Listening to it, making it, playing it, talking about it- I REALLY love music. I play the #piano and #viola, and am ambitiously taking up the #cello.

Some of my general genre go-to’s no particular order:

#PinkFloyd #Beyonce #PortugaltheMan #SirSly #alternative #Lizzo #TheDoors #MeghanTheeStallion #StillWoozy #FleetFoxes #Queen
#Chopin #Bach #Tchaïkovsky

#introduction (continued)

I mentioned this earlier, but I am *really* pro #Education. I’m a proud #firstgen student and #communitycollege grad

Education should be free! Im thankful Biden cancelled $10-20k for borrowers but that’s not enough. #StudentLoanDebt #CancelStudentLoans #EducationDebt

I’ve made it this far and failed to mention #birding. My favorite bird hands down is the #Puffin. I wish to see the birds of paradise before I die. I miss cardinals from when I lived on the #eastcoast.

What is your favorite bird &/or bird you want to see most?
