	that is, the blog represents the feelings of some of those who are disabled in some ways though i'm glad the internet gives them a place to share and vent, i hope they get beyond it, and have (imho) a better life sad they haven't realised that everyone is disabled in their own ways. part of the human condition. some 'worse' than others. oh you mother f*cker.

	My general feeling on all this is that if you want your music to be performed by sensitive emo souls who would go out of their way to avoid offending even the lowliest insect, AFP is probably not your best choice. And anyone who is surprised by that is unlikely to be much of a fan. But of course, let's not forget that making up fictional musicians = rape. (Reply to this)(Thread)

'By the by, I loved some of the comments in response to that blog post going on about how this concept is somehow discriminatory to "disabled" persons. You can tell none of those people actually have disabilities. Nowadays people with disabilities describe themselves as "differently abled" not "disabled". The response is so patronising it's more discriminatory than the idea ever could have been in the first place.'

what.

i just.

While I'll be the first person to agree that "differently abled" is patronizing as hell, probably with a lot of 'fucks' thrown in for flavor, and I hate the term because of it...

I. Just. What.

Gaiman was linked to the Disabledfeminists post and this was his response on his Facebook:

Jacob, interesting link. I think they have some valid concerns, although I think that Evelyn Evelyn, as a piece of performance art and a story, is about conquering obstacles and survivng and making art against all odds. I'd be interested in seeing what they think when they've heard the record and, most importantly, seen the live show.

Just...no.
