I have a processing delay that makes operating a car feel way too abrupt and terrifying to me, so I’ve never had a license, I have always biked and bused. Not that I have ever been able to afford a car, I would be terribly vulnerable in a place where you absolutely need one. A cluster of hidden disabilities that make exploiting your labor unprofitable by a thousand cuts has a special sort of stigma attached to it, and it’s a special sort of mindfuck to gradually break free of the cloud of eugenicist denial you were raised under and see it for what it is.

It fucking sucks when this is the norm, trust me.
Otherwise, I hope you’re doing okay, comrade
