Em really does care 💛 #ViolinHeist#disabilityrep#snippets

Em came back with not only some of the meat, but some sliced bread on one of the wooden plates. Lelia wasn’t sure if that was because Em noticed that Lelia would always grab one of the two wooden plates over the five metal ones every time, or if the wooden plate had just been on top.

Disabled4Disabled ships spotlight for Disability Pride Month: Princess Entrapta of Dryl and Lord Hordak (She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) For all their flaws, they still mean so much to me #SheRa#Entrapdak#Entrapta#Hordak#DisabilityRep

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing of Entrapta, a wiry brown woman with very voluminous purple hair, resting on the chest of Hordak, a very skinny bat-like, pointy eared alien. They look each other deep in the eyes.

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing of Nara, a petite desi woman, sitting on a couch, with Laurent, a lanky black man, resting his head in her lap. They are looking tenderly at each other. From the way the blanket falls, it is visible that Laurents legs are amputated below mid thigh.

To my zebras: Am I 100% satisfied with this? No. But it's a start! #disabilityrep#writer#violinheist

Background in blurry shades of brown. Text reads: “So, what’s with all the serums?” Em asked. “Though, I suppose if you don’t want to talk about it here, you don’t have to.” 
Lelia looked around, there was hardly anyone in the Tom. The lunch rush hadn’t even started. She dropped the ward to focus on eating. This conversation topic would be a distraction. She took a bite of potatoes, chewed, swallowed, then took a deep breath. 
“I have a condition that affects the connective tissue in my body,” she explained. “Pros: I have relatively clear skin and I’m super flexible. Cons: I’m so flexible my joints like to pop out of place, my skin is very sensitive and it bruises and tears easily, and I’m in a lot of pain all the time.”

Major joint trauma just isn't a big deal to Lelia. #violinheist#writer#disabilityrep

Blurry colorful background with blues, purples, and yellows. Text reads: “Where have you been?” Em asked. “What happened to you?” 
“Oh, it's no big deal,” Lelia shrugged. “I got out of there just fine, didn’t talk in-depth to any security guards, ended up going to the hospital…”
“You went to the hospital?” Em arched an eyebrow.
“Yeah, hip popped out of the socket. Worked out great because then I reasonably was in so much pain the guards stopped asking me if I’d seen anyone suspicious.” Her face fell though as she remembered the conversation with her mother afterwards though. 
“I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that your hip was out of its socket and you presumably walked back to the Tom?” Em said. 
“Several hours later, but yeah, basically. I walk out of hospitals all the time, remember?”

I think Toph was an important example of disability rep for her time, but the show is nearly 20 years old. It makes sense some elements of her character haven't aged all that well. Honestly, I think that just shows how far we've come though, so I wanted to talk about it! #ATLA#Toph#DisabilityRep

Something a lot of authors overlook that i’d love to see acknowledged more when writing disabled characters is that there are communities and recourses available to us. We don’t always have to do everything alone. #writingAdvice#DisabilityRepwritingwithcycyborg.blogspot.com/2024/03/WeHa...
