Congrats again, SAG. ✊🏾 PreWGA solidarity.

11 kids and pregnant with triplets. I normally don’t do reality Tv, but I’m watching this.
I hope they’re getting that Kate plus 8 money and not 50% less. 💅🏾💅🏾💅🏾
Sigh.
Y'all know they do this on purpose, right? They create and hire BIPOC, queer and disabled people to "appease" us while doing NO MARKETING or PROMOTION and then when it "bombs" they can pull the "we tried" card and go right back to the "good ole days" content.
Black. Queer. Disabled. Autistic. Harley Quinn writer.
Never have I EVER thought that I’d write for DC Comics, yet here I am. And on Harley frickin Quinn! Biiiittttccccchhhhh
Lemme throw my stunner shades on
Hey Drs, this for you.
Just cuz I don't LOOK like I'm a 9/10 on the pain scale, it doesn't mean that I'm not. Check your ableism and preconceived notions on how someone is supposed to look in pain.
That "pain chart" is based on ABLED BODIED PEOPLE btw

The upskirt shots, giant bouncing boobies, naked kids, horn dogs chasing after the girls and women, kids whacking off, etc., aren’t necessary and ruins the anime experience.

The amount of people who aren’t sure if they’re disabled because of anxiety, depression, bipolar, etc is breaking my heart.
Y’all are valid. You’re absolutely correct if you think it’s a disability. It’s ableism that keeps the BS narrative of invisible illness alive
So. I just found out about
#Loqueesha
. A white man pretending to be a Black woman—what he deems as what Black, “ghetto” “hood” women sound like.
Time & again it shows how Black women are neglected, disrespected, and don’t matter.
Hollywood turns BW books/scripts to make this 💩
Writers who use disabilities in their horror movies need to examine why they view disabled people as scary individuals.
And you wonder why people use mental disabilities as a reason when they do horrendous shit. 💅🏾
It’s wild seeing people moving like Covid is over. Just living their best lives while disabled people have been held hostage in their homes bc we don’t wanna die.
The selfishness is outta pocket.
So, I have this neighbor (BW) who sells plates throughout the year & I always order from her. Since last year I haven't been able to cook due to my heart issues & I order food to eat daily.
On Thursday I asked if she could make enough food so I can eat for the week, she said yes
Dear colorists,
Do you see how this Black woman looks in the dark? Please make a note of it and start coloring us properly. Our beautiful melanin skin lights up differently in the sun & moon. We're not just one shade all the time. Implement this.
Sincerely,
Tee
I really wanna see more disabled people doing the

Liza explicitly stated she didn’t want to be seen in her wheelchair, but the Oscars had other plans? She was presenting an award for CODA — a disabled film.

Seriously y’all, get cancer screenings. I know it’s scary AF, but please, don’t put it off. Finding out when it’s too late and nothing can be done is the absolute worst.
Get your mammograms, yearly paps, colonoscopies, etc., don’t neglect your health out of fear.
Lissen. Her husband would be treated like Dracula!
HOLY WATER. GARLIC NECKLACE. CROSS, A CROSS TATTOO ON MY BELLY AND RIGHT ABOVE MY MONEY POT!!!
Stay awaaaayyyy!!! Go entangle with someone else 😩😩😩
This may seem like a waste of money, but I can assure you, I'd rather "waste" my money this way and support a Black woman than give it to fast food & restaurants.
Plus, ain't no way I'm gonna get as much food as she made for $150 that'll feed my family throughout the week.
How about we STOP using ableist slurs period?
Oh, and, it is NOT lost on me how y'all dragged Lizzo's name in the mud, calling for her head and to be canceled, but y'all didn't do that to Bey.
It's giving colorism and fatphobia.
She made 4 pans of mac n cheese, 3 pans of collards, 2 pans of fried/baked chicken & 2 pans of cornbread for me...for $150!!!!!!
Beside it being AMAZING & affordable, she's now officially my personal chef & will cook for me whenever.
Well, hell, didn’t see this coming. Looks like

A disabled spider person in a Marvel film and I wrote her first story. This is wild.
This is emotional for me. If you've followed me for awhile, you know cooking is one of my FAVORITE things to do, but w/my disabilities -- esp my heart -- I can no longer do it w/o being in pain & fatigued.
For 1.5 yrs all I ate was outside food & now I don't HAVE to!
BLESSED.
They said I couldn’t write white characters, that no one wanted to read gay comics. They harassed & threatened me since June, had campaigns to get me fired, to get people not to buy this comic and here I STILL am with a bestselling comic that went back to print on my debut book💅🏾

Take a look at Wendell and Wild, stellar cast, phenomenal animation with a Black girl lead. BARELY any promo.
Hell, if you want a prime example, look at the difference between Eat Bang Kill and Legion of Bats. One had marketing and promo, the other doesn't.
"We tried."
Disabled writers are out there striking too, please put on your damn masks!!! Don’t be selfish.
Someone already tested positive and was striking at Universal. Don’t make this a Covid super spreading event!
#WGAStrike
Whole time you breathing heavy while sitting and Lizzo dancing in heels for hours AND playing the flute during them.
And PSA: being fat doesn’t mean you’re unhealthy.
A Black, queer, disabled autistic woman is writing Harley Quinn (first EVER Black woman) and it’s crickets out in these streets.
I would say it’s unbelievable, but…🤥
A photo of me is being circulated while people laugh at the “crippled” writer cuz of a fucking comic book.
I HOPE this book does so well they ask me to write a Sun-Spider mini & ya gotta deal w/6 months of a disabled spider all up in your faces!
It’s the last day to preorder
Anna Faris trends on Twitter as people show her love after her ex-husband, Chris Pratt, praised his new wife in a new Instagram post, saying: “she's given me an amazing life, a gorgeous healthy daughter.”
Anna Faris has been open about her son Jack's health issues.
Who knew if Hollywood ACTUALLY hired disabled people — instead of ableds pretending to be disabled — would lead to people wanting to know more about disabilities?

This morning she called me to tell me she's making breakfast and would bring me a plate, alas I was nodded when she hit me up. About 20 mins ago, she said I'm making spaghetti & salad & brought over a couple plates of them for $25.
I haven't had home cooked meals in a minute.
We don’t wanna be a bother.
We don’t wanna ask for too much cuz again see above.
We try to not call out sick, but instead push through so we won’t lose the job and the insurance.
Meanwhile at any time we can be canned.
But y’all stay focused on how inspiring we are.
Disabled people shouldn't have to "work through the pain and illnesses", we should be accommodated, allowed to take breaks and take off without fear of losing jobs or freelance gigs.
Without getting into specifics, chronic pain folks, we need to talk.
We have high pain tolerance and unfortunately it’s a recipe for disaster. My pain flares have been worse — you’ve seen the tweets — and I brushed it off saying it’s the weather.
It wasn’t.
I watched the
@Sia
trailer and as an
#actuallyautistic
person...that movie was a friggin overload for me. Chile I felt like I was in rainbow puke town. Made me hella uncomfortable. All them colors and music at once? Overloaded the hell outta my senses, but, 4 years research tho.
I’m watching
#ChicagoMed
and I am seeing RED over an autistic storyline.
IDK how old this autistic person is supposed to be, but his grandma takes care of him, she breaks her hip & has cancer, right? The grandma gives him her opioids to KILL HIM b/c he’d be better off DEAD.
Reason why Hollywood doesn't use actual disabled people is MONEY.
They'd have to make the set more accessible. They'd have to take breaks to cater to the disabled person's pain, fatigue, med break, sensory overload, etc.
Can't do that cuz we gotta save time and money
That video of the 11yo who hacked the school computers to shut down the internet so the kids could be released is a genius.
HOWEVER when the mom said, “did I give birth to Rain Man?”, it gutted me. Hollywood’s constant shitty narratives of disabled ppl gotta stop.
As someone who can’t get vaccinated due to angioedema, I don’t want you to stand with me. I want you to get vaccinated cuz you standing with me can kill me.
I made a choice early on to stand in solidarity with people who could not be vaccinated. Only discomfort it’s brought to my life is that I cannot travel. Breaks my heart that for others it means their livelihood.

I wanna encourage you to post photos of yourself w/mobility aides, we need to get the tag trending so we can counteract that whole “She can walk” “she doesn’t need a wheelchair” narrative.
It’s pathetic we have to combat racism AND ableism.
Which comic villain do you agree with and why?
I’ll go first.
Magneto. Magneto was right about everything he said and humans proved him right. Every time. Mutants needed their own country so they could live in peace.
In order of importance: rent, weed, meds, food, bills.
Why weed? It’s my medicine for my broken back, nerve and bone pain, fibromyalgia, migraines, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, PMDD, TBI, and the rest of these disabilities. If I don’t smoke…you don’t wanna know.
These Dwight Howard tweets is just... There’s so much homophobia crap on these twitter streets. I hope y’all are taking notice & rectifying who y’all follow.
Black men can be bisexual, there’s nothing wrong with that. What IS wrong is harassing & threatening the trans woman.
Folks claim they wanna work with disabled people until that disabled person does something that THEY don't like, which, 9/10 is out of their control because they're DISABLED.
So do you WANNA work with disabled people OR do you wanna work with disabled people you can control?
I don't need to cry and make an ugly face to show that I'm a 9/10 for pain. I also don't need to be wincing either. I can have a full blown convo and not miss a beat at a 9/10. Why? Cuz I've been living this way for 6+ years.
Do better docs.
#MakeAbleistsUncomfortable
This is my first look at the cover and I’m absolutely speechless. A disabled spider. Whew. This was such a HARD secret to keep, but I’m so glad I can lowkey talk about it!
Where’s Black Hollywood and those “they were so strong” tweets now?
I told y’all months ago that those words are shitty & would affect other disabled people on set. Did y’all stand up for Nicole?
Blacklisted cuz of her autoimmune disease.
