Ableism is both necessary for and dependent on white supremacy, imperialism and colonialism, capitalism, queermisia and transmisia, and misogyny.

    I’m just starting too by prioritizing fun over work. There’s zero priority of work actually, because it ruins the fun for me. The second I do it mostly as work, I usually quit doing it.

    As I said I’m doing it as a cathartic stretch every now and then. This may stay the same, it could develop into me doing it with more frequency, or maybe I’ll stop for a long while again. It’s just to familiarize with the stretch for fun. Having no quota of kegels, and no set frequency of kegels, is helping me. I feel this is a healthy step to pelvic floor health.

    I can be sedentary. I rarely enjoy being present and having a body, and this reminds me of how much we can enjoy having one.
