So, fun fact, you do need to be as clean as possible when you drain your urine bag, especially if you have a suprapubic catheter. Not surprisingly, there's a much higher risk of contracting a UTI when you have a tube leading straight into your bladder.
Fat? Check!
No she has FND which is the most stigmatized, and therefor worst disability in the world (according to this article that mentions her)!
Almost certainly, she seems to be wearing as much metal as possible without really restricting movement. Each of those LOOKS impressive, but it's literally a ring that keeps your finger bones in a straight line...their natural position. Unless the joint hates that, it's just jewelry. And maybe it's just buried in the other things, but I see no thumb splint/ring/brace, likely because those do actually restrict normal movement.Jesus, that's a lot of ring splints.
Is this another (h)EDS munchie?
OMG sockbros! Those specific compression socks kind of suck, though; I quickly realized that you get what you pay for.Obligatory picture of this super special disabled person-of-gender:
Did she undo the drain spout and then throw an entire bed bag into a bush? I don't understand this at all. If it's a leg bag she could stand next to the bush and drain it like a man doing a sneaky pee. If it's a bed bag she's rocking around town, she could still hold it and undo the drain. There's no practical reason to have the bag stretched that far out.
Muh plights. Must show the world muh plights.
Still lurking but have obsessive need to comment:
I remember this Cait chick!No she has FND which is the most stigmatized, and therefor worst disability in the world (according to this article that mentions her)!
The whole getup is amazing, but my favorite part is the combination of to tight and loose ring splints.
Also @fitty tucker : Does she claim to be Maori? Do you know more about her? She seems marvelous!

I was confused and curious as well. So I did a search and came up with one instagram post where she says her grandfather was Maori.
That's... quite a few self-harm scars she's got going there. Along with some self-harm.
Man I love this guy, zooming around in his chair with his legs strapped together because...reasons?
So Dutch she doesn't know the fries are called pataje oorlog and calls drop/dropje "droopies".
The reasoning EDS munchies wear them, is that they supposedly keep your fingers from over extending. I'm not a medfag, but to me this sounds counter productive? Sounds like something that would get worse by deconditioning. Wouldn't it be better to do physical therapy and learn/train how to hold things without overextending your fingers?
No! You don't understand! She needs these socks to show the world how unique she is while being disabled! It's the evil capitalist companies that force her to buy made-in-china crap to express her true self!OMG sockbros! Those specific compression socks kind of suck, though; I quickly realized that you get what you pay for.
Funny aside: if you're looking for reasonably-priced light compression socks for your job in the service industry, you'll run across ads for plus-sized compression socks too. They almost always use the same pictures as the regular listings, but they stretch the photos horizontally. Very efficient.
Well I'm not saying FND can't have uncontrollable impact on a persons life, but it sounds like she got that diagnosis because everyone knows she's faking.
So she's the kind of SJW that manages to be more offensive to marginalized groups than actual racists? Cool... I think claiming indigenous heritage only makes sense if you live the lifestyle as well.
TY, I haven’t laughed this hard in ages. Can’t believe I’ve never seen that!
That little shame about showing fresh cuts like that has got to be diagnostic for cluster B personality disorders. There's some people with affective or psychotic disorders with pretty gnarly self harm habits, but the depressed ones tend to feel a lot of shame and hide it as best they can, while psychotic disorder self mutilation tends to be a lot more uh... creative.
Is that even possible? There aren't any muscles in your fingers to train, just tendons - which are extra lax with actual (h)EDS. Seems like if your fingers legitimately insist on overextending while doing simple things like typing then bracing makes sense, and they're a more subtle option than the cheap plastic ones off amazon since they look like jewelry. I may have looked into them for my borked finger, don't punch solid walls.
