insisted I wasn’t hopping on another app but we move x catch me talking capitalism, neurodivergence, disability, gender, sexuality, books, films, theatre & sometimes world elite gymnastics 💖

does anyone else who struggles with fathers/mother’s day struggle more with the influx of “don’t want our emails” emails than they do the actual emails themselves?? or just me

i don’t want to lose the cute divorced couple :( but surely there’s no other way #RaceAcrossTheWorld

feel like i complain about this every season but i HATE the 5th place elimination. so pointless. #RaceAcrossTheWorld

i just love the pair of sisters so much 🥹 what down to earth lovely souls #RaceAcrossTheWorld

this son is gonna kill his mum in 20 mins flat 😆 #RATW

one of my favourite #RaceAcrossTheWorld things is when they all run off from the start line as if 1) they know where they’re going 2) aren’t racing for many weeks

We know today may feel especially heavy for our trans and non-binary siblings. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or affected by the UK Supreme Court’s decision, please know you’re not alone. We’re here for you every day from 10am to 10pm. #TransRights #Trans #NonBinary #SupremeCourt #Gender

Kidlit colleagues, just a reminder that JK Rowling *funded* this challenge over the definition of women at the Supreme Court. Every time you choose to work with her, platform her, take a stance that aligns with her, buy her books, nominate her for more awards, she uses that and funds hate.

At the heart of every attack on disability benefits is the myth disabled people “get perks”: a free car, loads of cash, a life off work. It misrepresents the reality of disability, whilst exploiting low wages and high living costs to make the public envy people in daily pain.

i’ve truly had a DAY and now somehow i’m watching a documentary about white chocolate digestives

guess who’s part of the meta scrape! very upsetting as an anti-AI author. libgen is a useful resource and I’d honestly rather people had the info in my book than not but that’s not the same as a scrape this huge for thousands of authors

“Under the rule of the Conservatives, I felt under threat… But, even after all of that, I’ve never felt as dehumanised as I do now, under Labour’s current rhetoric and reforms.” ✍🏻 my debut for @theleaduk.bsky.social national.thelead.uk/p/demonising...

Austerity with a red rosette is not the “change” people voted for.

can’t believe someone just said that those w mh needs should only be able to do “socially useful work” for benefits - what a horrific double standard and a true notion of the ideas of eugenics that this society holds

it would really be nice for someone to actually acknowledge that pip isn’t an out of work benefit actually :)

well AT LEAST they’re not changing it to vouchers!!! we’re so lucky!!

you can’t have a binary of can or can’t work!! that’s not how most disabilities work internally nor is it our experience of society and how employment/corporations work!

the words “genuine need” are so violent and loaded in this context. you do not get to set a fake bar that does not acknowledge any of our needs

objectively hilarious to say this is all due to tory failure only to treat disabled people just like they did - or arguably worse!

disgusting to put the north and midlands in your mouth as a justification for taking our benefits

we cannot “unleash talents” when there are no accessible jobs, you cut access to work, we are waiting years for surgeries and therapies and social care!!

I just don’t think it’s that radical of an opinion that we’ve let companies go too far with what they can charge a monthly subscription fee for

in better news today is new severance, love is blind and traitors us day so. big day for the most annoying person you know (me)!

in one of those phases at the moment where I’d give anything to be not chronically ill

“testing if love is blind” would be a whole lot more interesting and accurate if they weren’t all conventionally attractive, non-disabled, thin and largely white

I’m just a human with severe misophonia asking companies to stop putting eating sounds in their adverts

is anyone else just measuring their life in days until #Severance or is it just me

I don’t care which superpower you’d like the most, I want to know what power would stop a random inconvenience in your life

enjoyed my train conductor’s freudian slip of “please take all your personal lives with you” today

sorry I can’t actually talk about how dangerous she is because I’m too busy laughing at this sentence

has anyone made a resource about investing for neurodivergent people because what on earth

finally facing up to the fact I probably have endo, which feels like a slight cosmic joke as someone with dysphoria triggered by my periods (and already dealing with multiple other chronic illnesses 🙃) any recs for resources/ppl to follow who talk about it in a gender neutral way?

I need y’all to understand that the Crip Walk or “C Walk” is Black DISABLED History, but even in our own community, we are erased. The crop walk was invented by Black disabled Harlem dance legend Henry “Crip” Heard, who lost an arm and a leg in a car accident. It was later adopted by the Crips.⬇️
