This ⬆️. ID:Quote in white font on a dark purple background: “For able-bodied/hearing people, it is important to note that we are not your sob-story. Not an inspiration porn that makes you feel better about your day... or life, even. Please try to avoid telling us that we’re brave or an ‘inspiration’. We are people. We have personalities. We have rights. And we are here to stay. Be our ally.” – Nyle DiMarco #internationaldayofdisabledpersons
