So how long should we wait before sending her a ‘you up?’ text?
Or “but you’re still coming into work right?”
That would have been a better joke then a passive ass sexist joke…
100%
I thought the joke was making fun of the sexism, but maybe I’m giving the benefit?
Tbf I just realized it’s basically a repost.
Dafuk society do you live in lol
I know the answer to this! An ableist one!
Many chronic conditions don’t look like living in a full body cast but may be just as debilitating, which results in many people with chronic illnesses being told at various points in their lives that they should be carrying on normally because they don’t look sick.
Yep. Imagine being bedridden with a severe illness and when people who don’t understand meet you (which is most people) they go “get up and live your life” or “get up and do X”
A lot of people (even a few doctors!) brain seems not able to comprehend that someone could be sick and not get better ie. chronic illness.
