“Every possible -ism and -phobia and moral impropriety has been ascribed to me since I began my largely pro-bono career as an internet girl,” writes Ivy Wolk.
In a new essay, the 22-year-old comedian and actor reflects on the way her dark thoughts about her own self-image are interpreted as “soulless edgelord fare” — and all the times she’s been canceled since she started posting her comedy online as a teen, including when children once decided en masse that she was a “whorish foil” to a famous friend of hers.
“As much as I wish for anonymity or a slate wipe sometimes, I am grateful for the perspective I’ve aggregated and the ways in which I have been challenged never to abandon my beliefs and my unbounding love for other people,” Wolk writes. “It cannot harden me, it cannot isolate me from community, and it cannot remove me from public life.”

this is not a new phenomenon. people have been saying "the social consequences of your disability are YOUR fault for not being accommodating enough to everyone else" for ages. it's just rough to see that it's still going on decades past when these first discussions were had.

It's good to know that people are realizing the narrative isn't as good as they say it is. The only thing that's even remotely salvageable is Deltritus.
