Reposted by Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼megan @meganmay.bsky.social · 18/03/2025The government’s proposal in the health and disability green paper that people should have to be awarded 4 points for one of the daily living activities in order to receive PIP is absolutely mad. Thousands of disabled people will be thrown off PIP and pushed even further into poverty. 23715

Reposted by Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social · 18/03/2025This is a seminal moment: a Labour government cutting disability benefits. Not just continuing Tory levels. Cutting. This comes after a week of speculation, itself an act of cruelty by a government toying with people’s dignity. These cuts are disgraceful - and they will cost lives. 732694931
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 18/03/2025The truth of the disability benefit reforms is that Labour know they will push people to suicide with these cuts, and a dead disabled person is a financial win in their eyes. 240

But know this: it won’t end up as Labour postures. The disabled community will carry on fighting back—lobbying, resisting and mutual aid. Stay safe today please💜 616939
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 18/03/2025I’m so excited - I got sent these pictures of my wheelchair this morning, built to my exact needs and specifications and will be here next week. She’s so cute!! I love the pink detailing. Very open to suggestions of what to name her! 060
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Tried to have a new carer start this week, but both shifts she came smelling really strongly of perfume and my MCAS just couldn’t cope with it. Back to the drawing board I guess 000

Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 09/02/2025Yeah it’s pretty devastating tbh. We thought it would maybe be £10-12k, which felt manageable. But this feels like it will just never happen. Hard to feel hopeful 100

Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 01/02/2025Yes I can’t use tape either due to MCAS, even with the sensitive ones. I’ve been using my thoracic brace today and it is so helpful for sitting. I’m just using it for 10-15 minutes at a time as it uses a lot of muscles I’ve not worked for a long time but it’s so helpful 110
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 01/02/2025Gosh we are getting so close. I feel bad that the total will change soon as we still need to get the full final quote but hopefully it’s not too much more 110
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 31/01/2025I hope you can! I was very fortunate that my orthotist was the one who suggested it in the first place - I didn’t even know it was something available on the NHS! I’m also interested to see if it helps with POTS too 110
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 31/01/2025This plus commenting on their bodies in general like come ON just think a bit more 010
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 31/01/2025Exactly how I feel about it as well! I don’t even have to use it every day but if it means I could get 1% more out of an activity as I wear it, that’s incredible imo. So lucky to have an orthotist willing to spend money on me because they’re definitely not cheap 110
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 31/01/2025Thank you! It gets closer and closer every day which is filling me with hope! 120

Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 30/01/2025@crownlessagain.bsky.social so I perhaps own the cutest plushies in the whole wide world. How do they look exactly like them?! 120
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 30/01/2025It really is. This orthotist is so lovely and so willing to give me more than just the bare minimum. I can’t wait to try the full body brace. It’s being custom made to my exact measurements 110
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 30/01/2025I hope so too! Super excited to have two different types of neck brace for different activities and can’t wait for the full body brace! 010
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 30/01/2025Yes, yes I do have bunny plushies that look like Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji, what about it? #TheUntamed #MDZS 070
Linka 🌈👩🏻🦼 @emilylinka.bsky.social · 30/01/2025A genuinely good orthotics appointment this morning - come away with two new neck braces (in different styles), a thoracic brace, and I’ve been measured for a body suit to stabilise my shoulders, hips and lower back!
