if your reaction to a disabled person discussing their disability is “i feel so sorry for you” then you’re an ableist and you should never speak to a disabled person ever again

here’s why. first, our existence isn’t something to pity. we are allowed to live without being seen as something pathetic.

second, this makes it about your feelings. and noah fence but i don’t care how how bad you feel because i exist.

abled people can and should reblog this btw

Ok but would it be good to ask if there’s anything I can do to help?

yes, absolutely! this gives your friends space to advocate for what they need, which is often something that’s hard to ask. showing that you’re happy to help is a great support.
