This has the potential to become the most funny bit in season 8b

Maddie was so real when she asked Buck “Is it circled with a heart around it?” about Eddie’s calendar and him freaking out and complaining about Eddie hanging out with someone else that isn’t him and then later when he invites Chimney to the basketball game and Chimney realizes why and he tells Buck “So I’m your basketball beard. I feel so bonded.” like poor Madney suffering because Buck can’t seem to put two and two together now

I love talking to kids about disability bc

1. they often just Get It, and

2. they have 0 concept of disability as a tragedy or something pitiable.

I've watched kids get into an argument with a teacher bc they thought wheelchairs were cool. I told a kid that I can't stand for too long sometimes and they replied, "That's okay, I can't do cartwheels sometimes, but I just do other stuff then. You can sit down with me if you want". Today a girl asked me what the headphones on a classmate's desk were for and I told her that headphones are important for some kids because noises bother them, and she said she wished she had headphones at home, because her baby brothers make a lot of noise and it makes it hard to think. The idea that different people could use tools at different times is intuitive and simple and when accessibility aids are explained neutrally, kids don't see them as bad or unfortunate, they're just things that are useful.

Even mental disability!! In Kindergarten the other day one of the kids asked me why his table partner got stickers when nobody else did. I started off by saying, "Well, when you do your work well, it feels good, right? That's your brain giving you a reward," and the kid just right away went, "Oh, and the stickers are like his reward?" YES! You are 5 and have a better grasp on ADHD than most adults! Kids blow me away every day.

For real

Until you’ve ever been gaslit by the healthcare system I don’t give a fuck about your opinion on self diagnosis

I love you irl conversations about plurality

I love you respectful curious singlets/questioning systems

I love you normalizing plurality
