Content/trigger warning: discussion of ableism, ableist slurs (censored), cursing Hello, dear readers! As I probably forgot to tell all of you, I’m working full time now as a medical editor.

Content/tw: cursing, discussion of saneism I’m probably going to do at least two of these; one about allyship to the mentally ill community and one about allyship to the Autistic community. I might also do one about allyship to cluster B people. And maybe one for the whole Disabled community, but that’s so huge and…
