Time is a feminist and disability issue

Seen on Tumblr, posted by chameleonchild:

"Being chronically ill and having to stay at home a lot doesn’t mean I have more free time. The chronic illness occupies that and the rest of my time."

Bit of an "aha" moment for me.

Totally "aha!" for me, and that's proof of the ubquity and power of normate bigotry.

I needed to see this. I've been feeling badly about how I "use" my time. But I'm doing what my health allows me to do.
