nobody-nowhere:

I wonder what would happen if disabled people went around referring to ourselves as inspiring, and talking about ourselves the way non-disabled people talk about us…?

“Hey, hey you. I’m autistic. Fucking look at me; I’m sitting at a computer typing on the internet. I’m so motherfucking inspiring. Look, look at me. I’m AMAZING. Are you inspired yet? BE INSPIRED, OR FUCK YOU!”

I actually used to know someone who tried to do that. Unfortunately, not as satire. She would get into arguments with people and be like “No you need to understand, people like me are here to teach people like you, what’s really important in life.” It was pretty awful, because she actually believed she was there to teach people a Very Special Lesson, but she was actually a pretty mean person so it… didn’t work, in a huge way.
