experienced my first disability discrimination moment as a diabetic last night @BrooklynMirage where one of the security people yelled at me for bringing my insulin to a concert & then confiscated the fruit snacks I carry to manage emergency low blood sugars. super cool 😎

the first time I took the TIPs safe alcohol service training course was 14+ years ago & I’m not sure whether to find it comforting or disturbing that they have been using the same horrifically acted video scenarios the entire time

me rising from my edible coma to ask the flight attendant for a ginger ale in a clear, considerate voice that conveys gratefulness and respect
I had the best slice of cheesecake of my life last night so of course today has been one of the most infuriating days I’ve ever experienced, the universe requires balance & also me sobbing on the sidewalk
my near-decade lesbian relationship with my cis dude bf is proof that being the funny one & both enjoying cooking is all that matters regardless. jokes & food are truly all that matters

very cool of @Amtrak to overload my train out of New York w passengers from a previous train so that there’s no seats for at least 4 dozen passengers who paid to be on this specific train. will I get a refund for having to stand all the way to New Haven? can’t wait to find out
