Somewhere in my memes folders I have that "The horrors persist, yet so do I" meme.
Unfortunately, the folders currently look a bit like this.
(Metaphorically, not literally. I cannot afford a warehouse filled with memes. Yet.)
Fortunately, I rediscovered a bunch of pictures I'd forgotten about. I'll try not to spam all y'all!
Oooh! I know!
If I thread them right here, then you can mute the conversation when you have had enough of my nonsense!
I will try to remember to do that.

This is not a meme, more a reflection.
Or maybe a redirect.
Because, as others have expressed using much better words than this, "Disability Wrath Month" sometimes feels more apt.
#DisabilityPrideMonth #DisabilityPride #DisabilityWrathMonth
From Life With a Side of the Unexpected:
"A lot of disabilities are invisible. Your reaction to them isn't."
"Common microaggressions against disabled people", a list by @together_in_pain
Sadly, I have no doubt that many of you reading this could add other examples to this list. I am so very sorry for that.

Talking about disability with all y'all vs talking about disability with (many) medical professionals.
It's easier with you. Thanks for being here.
