Hi, I'm Indigo! (they/them pronouns) I'm here to post about my life as a disabled person (ME/CFS, POTS, PTSD, and assorted other issues), make friends, and learn from other disabled people.

I'm part of a system - our shared account is @rainbow_phoenix.

LocationSalem, OR, US
My system’s personal bloghttps://spectrumofeevee.wordpress.com/
Open to questions onmy gender, plurality, disabilities, etc.

Hey Mastodon, could you help me spread the word about my Etsy shop? A sale or two would be a colossal help.

All of my creations are designed, hand-sewn, hand-embroidered by me. Each takes many hours to make.

1. Got to go to a Covid-cautious meetup in-person today!!

2. My system might start helping run a Mastodon account or two for a couple organizations

3. The $25 mutual aid post I posted last night on behalf of a friend got filled in exactly 2 hours!

I just called my senators and House representative! Here is what I said (after my introduction, of course, where I explained AAC and gave my address and stuff):

"I’m calling to urge you to do everything you can to protect Medicaid, food assistance, housing assistance, utility assistance, and so on. Especially gender affirming care through Medicaid. I am trans and disabled, unable to work, and I rely on these programs to survive. Thank you."

Your turn, if you can!

I want to post AntiDoomPosting, but my system currently has a printer situation that is Not Ideal, so I'm being so brave and holding off until we fix it. 😭 We don't get many orders from our shop, but I think making these posts increases the chance.

1. Food banks exist

2. Survey sites exist that pay you to do surveys (and some of them actually pay fairly 😅)

3. We got to go to a support group for trans people (a different one from the one my headmate @chartreuse mentioned earlier in this tag - this one, we’ve been attending for a while, and I think it’s great)

Two outfit selfies my headmate @fern took over the past few days! I really like this dress (no, I'm totally not biased because my name is Indigo)

published my first short story!! it’s a queer retelling of a traditional myth - with a bit of an unsettling vibe, and set in the harsh Icelandic landscape! https://bangalorereview.com/2025/06/her-skin/
