Currently contributing to in-progress zines on blind and deafblind people across history and Disability and Divinity. I really can’t recommend these zines or taking part in DARK enough; it’s an opportunity to understand our history as disabled people for free

Ok, I think I'm back in control of my account. To anyone who followed me in the last month, I'm sorry to announce that the porn bot that managed to take over for a bit is no longer in business.

Another June, another Edinburgh Pride. The acrobats in the center of the picture were doing really cool stunts the whole way.

The same thing has happened in Canada under MAiD. This is why I am so damn relieved the Scottish Parliament did not, despite campaigning from people who did not listen to DPOs, allow this. Without a society that genuinely values disabled people, including neurodivergent people, that has genuine

“Failed to learn” isn’t accurate. “Actively decided to continue to risk the lives of poor, marginalised and disabled people because the alternative is their pals in industry potentially making slightly less obscene profits” is.

Just in case you didn’t know, sex work is work, sex workers are overwhelmingly marginalised - women and/or queer folk, many are migrants, many are single parents, *many* are disabled and/or chronically ill, and all Workers deserve respect and safety. So glad to see a decent representation ❤️

The actual story here is that, as this government shuts down legal aid to access the labyrinthine asylum system and cuts legal routes to safety, people fleeing from horrendous abuses are increasingly at the mercy of people traffickers and crooks. But nope, anti-immigration BS only from the Beeb 🙄

Favourite Bible verse (wrong answers only) “Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. “The future is all around us now, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation”.

I suppose it’s useful that every few days a Reform politician will slither out and hiss something like ‘we would make it so you’ll be fined for owning an unpatriotic car’ or some shit, lets us dispense with the idea that anyone who ends up voting for them is anything other than a massive wanker.

It is suggested they should throw the ring into the sea: "Not safe for ever' said Gandalf '...And it is not our part here to take thought only for a season, or for a few lives of Men, or for a passing age of the world. We should seek a final end for this menace, even if we do not hope to make one."

I really wish I didn't have to care about US politics, but seeing Mamdani run on an explicitly pro-LGBT, pro-immigrant platform and win has been the first little glimmer of hope I've seen in a long time. Maybe y'all aren't quite as utterly fucked as I thought.
