Ableism is both necessary for and dependent on white supremacy, imperialism and colonialism, capitalism, queermisia and transmisia, and misogyny.

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
Some of y’all here encouraged me to produce more music. I bought a hulusi and taught myself some basics and recorded it, sampled it and turned the whole thing into a meditative loop. I really mean it when i say the small amount of encouragement i get here has been crucial over these past few horrible months and without it I wouldn’t be pushing myself towards music again.
Here is the song i made today if you care to listen
That sounds great! I’ve never heard of a hulusi before but it has a very soothing and ethereal sound to it. Keep up the cool work!
Thank you very much, I’m glad I’m finding a return to music pleasant and helpful, my anxieties before diving back in were immense in a way that seems very silly now that I’ve recorded a song and the world didn’t end lol
