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

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

Anyone I know interested in sewing and maybe being on TV? I’ve been nudged by the production team for the ‘Great British Sewing Bee’ to say they are looking for ND / disabled folk for the next series of the show. Sign up form is here: eu.castitreach.com/ag/love/gbsb...

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.

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 :)

“it’s not a post covid problem across the world” maybe because we didn’t have stringent lockdowns, had mass spreading initiatives eat out to help out, were plunged into a cost of living crisis, have no support for those with long covid, etc etc…

Today is the 35th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, in which disabled activists discarded their mobility aids at the foot of the Capitol steps to climb them in support of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Ac. Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins, 8, told reporters "I'll take all night if I have to!"

I am currently wrestling with the new knowledge that was “acceptance” of my chronic illnesses wasn’t really acceptance, it was passivity. and now I know that, I’m having to consider my anger and grief in a different light again, which is so exhausting (on top of living in the exhausting body itself)

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.⬇️

led a session for staff at a children’s hospital on autism & trans/non-binary ppl this morning and after being extremely nervous, it was lovely. they genuinely care about the topic and our needs and are considering it within their practice. the state of play isn’t as bad as they want us to believe.

my weekends at the moment are absolute write offs for chronic fatigue and I don’t even know why. it’s worse than when I was at uni or when I was working my time-bound part time job last year. something’s clearly up with my system or my pacing but it’s so hard to work out

The article going around about how "you can't post your way out of fascism" is, well, imo as a researcher in this field, kinda bad. Connective action is actually quite important! Awareness raising matters! The piece frames "posting" in contrast to "real organizing," and emphasizes local irl...
