I also have no regrets about getting the vaccination. It was important and I know we need to get it, but basically telling us that our symptoms didn’t have anything to do with the vaccine was some really disingenuous medsplaining.
@successtextpost
Doing a rewatch with my boyfriend while watching it in real time, and just got past the season one finale. "You're my number one boy" broke me this time for that reason.
@BellaJoyAgain
I’ve always been blase about being blind since birth, but this tweet makes me realize how damn glad I am I could only write in braille/my parents never learned to read it. Cause nope.

@AlmaSuono
I’m not a parent but I was groomed for ten years and I can tell you at least for me, parents weren’t present and didn’t show their love in the ways they should have, which in turn, drove me into the arms of someone who took advantage of it.
As soon as you believe that women can falsely accuse other people, then we can have an open discussion of this. Get falsely accused by a woman and then come talk to me.
Engaging young boys in left-wing spaces isn’t the solution to violent misogyny because misogyny is a problem on the left, too. Look at the bipartisan treatment of Amber Heard as just one example
@kattenbarge
Both being abused, and being accused of abuse, can affect someone’s life in excruciatingly damaging ways. Again, be falsely accused, and then come talk to me about this. You will never understand unless it has happened to you.
@kattenbarge
As I mentioned earlier, Emmett Till is a perfect example. He was accused of raping a woman at the age of 14, lynched for a crime he never committed, and the woman came out decades later, and lied about it.
Two years ago, someone I once cared about, who constantly preached about how he'd never be ok with anyone looking into his private messages, showed what hipocracy looks like and did it to me. Thus, this account was born. Happy twitterversary, qk.
@BiCapybara
Seriously. I love having both options, but that's why I'm poly and bi, but I know I'm not everyone. We're not the terrible people they try to make us out to be.
If you're really out here blocking and stopping being friends with people because they like a certain author, or go to a certain chicken restaurant, you are truly the ignorant one. Eating or reading someone or buying their game doesn't make you a terf. Get over yourselves.
@lizovich
Bro, that. We begged and I mean beeeeegged for Jekyll and Hyde for our senior musical. Know what we got instead? Damn Yankees. I will never forgive my theater teachers for that mess.
It was earlier this week, but tonight ,I'm celebrating two years with the most amazing person that I do not deserve. I love you
@Mahogspice091
. Thank you for the best and most peaceful years of my life. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us.
On my way to perform at the Lincoln Center. Yes, The Lincoln Center. How is this my life? Wish I felt a hundred percent, but ya gotta take the good with the bad. Obv the dream didn't come with the food poisoning or whatever this is.
My amazing parents got us a gift card to the restaurant by their house since they themselves had a dinner reservation elsewhere, and I couldn't ask for a better new year with my
@Mahogspice091
. I also just tried alligator for the first time. Holy shit.
A bitch is employed!!!! So glad to be back at my old job just in a different capacity. Has been so good to see everyone, especially the ot who taught me when I was here and who has known me since the age of three.
There is a special place in hell for bosses who call their employees on their day off. Especially for the holidays. Bitch, I'm not answering you or coming in. Fuck you.
@elisabethepps
so glad this got resolved. You'd be surprised, ok maybe not, about how many blind and disabled people deal with this on a regular basis. With or without service animals, some of these drivers will do anything to screw a disabled person.
For my actual birthday, I did boring job interviewy stuff during the day, got an incorrect caribou Coffee order that was nevertheless delicious, smoked, and went to my favorite diner with two of the people I love most. Hoping to see more of my people this weekend.
I agree. As someone who also commuted an hour and a half each way to work every day, it was no way to live. It actually is what ruined me for corporate America forever, because I can’t do it now.
Heartbroken at this result. I didn't wanna deal with another procop developer type running this city, but the fact we came so close means while we might not be there for mayor, we're working our way to city council, and that's a win in my book. Thank you for being our champion.
A friend of mine who lied about a guy she dated’s age and moved cross country on her 18th birthday to be with him, is now the mom of two from a married man and has the gall to complain about the amount of cursing and Sam Smith’s performance at the Grammies. Bruh,
To the unbelievably rude piece of sticky braille paper that gave me the tiniest and most painful papercut that didn't even bleed between my index finger and thumb, I hope something terrible happens to your family.
Really considering making a manual for nonperforming types who live with performers as a sorta how to what to expect thing, cause some of y'all just don't understand.
Flying home today. Bitter sweet, but the fantastic

Tune into or tell smartspeakers to play dodge radio.
It’s why I was so grateful and humbled to do Spring Awakening. The story needed to be told through the disabled lens, and still, there were people who didn’t get the point, and there will always be, if we don’t continue to educate ourselves.
orbit came back today. This is the literal only thing that makes my voice going away a little more barable. i can like read and stuff now. Getting covid test tomorrow!!!!
A little sick of these biddies talking shit about me when I ain’t been around the blind circles for a while. Go mother your kids and keep my name out your motherfucking mouth. Certain mermaids should do the same, especially when I just paid their phone bills.
This the dumbest shit I've seen. I'd rather my man buy me weed than some stupid flowers that are gonna die in a week. These young girls out here. Jesus.
Idk how I held off for so long mentioning this, but in less than 24 hours, I'll be auditioning for the show that changed my life forever when I was 16 and just getting into musical theater, and I still can't believe it's really happening.
Now that they're really gone, and I'm stuck to my phone forever more on this hellscape, to all the third party api developers, esp for blind kind twitter apps, thank you for your work. Thank you for your dedication to this comunity.
Breakups are never easy, but I know my worth and I will not let anyone treat me with that much lip service and disrespect again. I know I’ll find another woman some day, but I have too much going right now to dwell on dipshits who ruin relationships.
Felt good to be back in the little German town with our little German cares and the little German boys and girls. Still can’t believe I’m playing this role, in this show. Come see Spring Awakening at the Parsons Theater in Northglenn. Tickets are at
Done giving chances to inconsistent flakes who talk a big game about being a better friend but don’t follow that up with any action whatsoever. Don’t need it in my life.
Ladies, gentlemen, everyone in between, if a person tells you at the beginning of a relationship they’d leave you for their ex if given the chance, I know this is obvious, but I was the idiot so I’ll say it. Run. Run away and never return. There’s no changing this, just run.
Omg guys guys guys guys guys guys I booked my ticket for next week and I’m going to Philly/NY/Harrisburg and I can’t fucking waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiit!!!!!
Eight years ago, at around this time, I was involved in one of the worst things that has ever happened to me. Last year, I won a singing contest on a mainly blind centric app. Tonight, I’m opening a god damn world premiere of a show. Life is a wild thing.
Voted for the first time with the accessible voting machines. Badass, and so proud to cast my vote for
@LisaforDenver
and
@sarahparady
. . Living in district 5 now, but we changing this city!!!!
New braille display who dis? No seriously, it's not mine, but it is as long as I work here, and damn it feels good typing in braille again. I also missed cursor keys and having 40 cells. 20 just don't do it for me.
Sure, getting ghosted is annoying. But you guys who keep saying that “ghosting is the worst thing you can do to a person” need to chill. Like…try being in a 40 month divorce from an abusive narcissist. Trust me, there’s way worse things people can do.
I'd like to give it up to google for letting me know my flight was delayed 4 minutes after the scheduled departure time, three times. Takes skill to be that slow lol. Leaving now.
I never brag on myself, but I'm posting this. Thank you John. For the millionth time in the last few days, in my head and out. I’m overwhelmed as hell by all the love. Y'all humble me, and I am forever grateful.
Life isn't perfect right now, but if you told 13 or 14 year old Hannah that she'd be a professional stage manager heading a show by age 25 her eyes would fill with stars, even if she didn't believe you. And that realization is giving me so much joy and gratitude tonight.
Hey idiot, it's October. Why did you forget a fucking jacket? Signed, your future self, who didn't wear a fucking jacket to rehearsal and is now freezing.
There aren't many things that have made me feel like I'm from Colorado and proud lately, except the theater community, and tonight!!! Holy fucking shit. Look out for the special on paramount plus in a couple of days. Wow. Thanks to
@HannahBeretta
for the tickets.
This Cassie Diddy mess made me go back through journal entries I wrote over the last almost ten years and look at them through a different lense. Y’all, I owe myself a whole lot of apologies.
I’ve come so far in only a month and a half and I’m honestly proud as hell of myself and the healing I’ve already done. I thought I’d be far worse off, but the fact that I’m now with someone who loves and cares for me as much as he does is more than I deserve.
If you hate that shit, please don’t come to my house. I love my dog/cat. You are not that special. I don’t love you that much. Get the fuck off my furniture and away from my babies.
Last year,
@Mahogspice091
@HannahBeretta
and I went to a shelter just to look. Famous last words at an animal shelter lol. On the first comb of the room, we saw a tiny black cat waving and tapping her paws on her cage as we walked by.
I partly agree with this. Sorry, but I ain't nor never will be passive or take disrespect. I'll be nice to you, but if you disrespect me or those I love, gloves are off.
From the inbox. as blind people, we need to stop being literal bulldozers, we are entitled to absolutely nothing! Do we get tired of educating people all the time yes, but you can’t treat people rudely and disrespectfully and expect a positive outcome
@BlindUnfiltered
This person should apply for a teaching job, get told that they can’t change diapers because they can’t see, and then come talk to me about able ism dying in the job market. This person sounds like an elitist loser.
I leave for Denver in three days and I am dreading that concept so so much. Minus my people, my PHAMALY, the ph one, and my cat,, I have zero desire to go back. Like if I could transfer my whole life here, I’d do it in a minute.
I can't put into words how anxious I am. After almost two decades probably of sneezing, headaches, sinus pressure, unexplainable fatigue, jaw popping, itchy eyes, I'm finally about to get some damn answers.
Being back at work after some time off, I’m reminded of how I basically just sit here and do nothing till someone shows up or calls. People say it’s so great, but I’d rather do nothing in the comfort of my own home, where I can go get coffee, smoke, and occupy myself.
@DoctorFishbones
I fell in love with Bernie and everything he stood for in 2015. My birthday is Inauguration Day and I have a relative who’s a senator. I hoped to see him elected in ‘20 and go to the inauguration but then he endorsed genocide Joe and that was it.
This is a stupid take. Both things can be true. If we liberate women, obviously that's good, and if we uplift men and give them a more positive role model or outlook, we don't have Andrew Tait's anymore.
Update on the crying thing: I just made it in the door and till I took my costume to show it to
@Mahogspice091
. I then fell asleep maybe like 30 seconds later. No that is no exaggeration.
When you combat narcicism with a calm and collected demeanor and not with emotions, you get a lot farther. Easier said than done, but I just did it, and man oh man does it feel good.
Significant others of friends, be warned. Do not piss me off before 6 A.M. I will torch you on your own very insecure alcohol fueled facebook status. My keyboard forgot the r at the beginning and it first said be waned, which is way funnier, so, be waned. Lol.
@DenBicycleLobby
@DenverCouncil5
Unfortunately, she is my representative, and as someone who does not use anything but public transit district 5, I do not agree with her whatsoever, and wish I had never voted for her.
This is all well and good in theory, till they start taking advantage of the fact you wanna work things out. They never wanted you in the first place if they constantly break it just so you can fix it.
Don't break up. Fix the problem. Start the romance again. Go on dates again. Work on winning each other over again. This is the main reason there are so many failed relationships. If you love each other and are actually best friends then breaking up shouldn’t be the answer.
Open the window because it was so hot, but I fucking know better. Smoke in the air from fireworks, a wildfire south of us, I sound like I have been smoking for 20 years, I can’t stop coughing, and I am clearing my throat every 30 seconds. I give up, I’m getting a humidifier.
