I have work tomorrow. I sometimes have a BIG reaction to bug bites. I’ve had one of these reactions this weekend my left hand is massive mostly around the knuckles. I also had an abscess tooth removed on Friday so my face is swollen. So I’m going to work looking like I’ve been in a fight!

If you're going to call a Disabled person "inspiring", say what they inspired you to do or just skip it.

Ok I’m doing it the cheesy thing people do to try and find people… I wish there was a better way to find people that you connect with on other apps. Where are my #UK #Disable / #ChronicIllness and/Or #Neurodivergent people?! #NEISVoid

Is there a way to use an iPhone app to view the rate of charge a iPhone is charging at? I have multiple cables I’ve muddled up I’m trying to work out which one is the ‘fast charge’ cable. There must be a way to get this data on an iPhone!? #BatteryHealth

I had such a bad night sleep last night I had about 3-4 hours and I can’t function on that little sleep. I was walking around like a drunk first thing this morning because my PoTS was so bad I’ve lost cont of the high HR alerts my watch has given me today! 1/

So I accidentally shot a lot of footage walking around Amsterdam yesterday in #8k resolution… I don’t even think I have anything capable of outputting 8k! Here’s my question: I have a #Mac is there a free way to downgrade the footage to 4k (or possibly lower)? I don’t have #FinalCutPro

IMHO falling over in a bar when you are not drunk is far worse than falling over when you ARE drunk because, everyone thinks you’re drunk! #DisabledSky #Disabled #Blind #hEDS

Never been in that situation that ALL the platform speakers are broken so I wasn’t quick to realise! Blame the #Autism I didn’t imagine it could happen. 2/2

I worked hard today! I also learned that if all the speakers at a train station are broken there is no way to know if the train that just pulled up is in fact YOUR train IF you are BLIND! 3-4 missed trains later they sent a human to help me. Part of it was my fault 1/

It’s dawning on me that I have to go to town tomorrow in the school holidays so I’m going to take my cane that shouts* aggressively at people! *ok it does not actually shout but it beeps loud! I think it’s my favourite feature 😂

So frustrating hoped to go to Hove at the WE but busses are replacing trains (not a dealbreaker) but the station busses are transferring people to has broken lifts that are out of order! (Yep there it is). Whose idea was that? What if #Disabled people want to travel this weekend?

Wow the artwork and skill that has gone into #AssassinsCreedShadows is incredible and I know because I’m a #BlindGamer I won’t be seeing all the detail (so I used an AI to do the image description).

A scenic view of a lush, mountainous forest landscape during autumn. The terrain features rolling hills covered in dense trees, displaying a mix of green, orange, and brown foliage. A lone figure stands on a prominent tree branch in the foreground, overlooking the expansive valley below. The scene includes a few small clearings and structures scattered among the trees, with visible pathways winding through the forest. The atmosphere is serene, with a soft blue haze in the distance enhancing the depth of the view.

Very pleased to say I'm credited as an #accessibility consultant on #Atomfall! Though the game isn't playable without sighted assistance, seeing it launch with audio aim cues and NPC sounds letting you tell friend from foe is a wonderful feeling. #Accessibility #A11Y #GamerWithoutSight

So the theory is it is kennel cough and it’s just hit her really hard and now she’s got inflammation from coughing that’s making her cough more and it’s a cycle so she’s on anti inflammatories. Watch and wait. 2/2

Jemma Brown @jemmabrown.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

She’s ok praise God! Her lungs sound clear and her heart is perfect but she got excited at the vets (treat central 🙄) and started coughing really bad. Vet did say she has got lots worse but she basically has a lot of inflammation in her throat. 1/

My mum was really upset about the sudden change and I think in all honesty in shock was crying on the phone to me so I called dog care team at guide dogs for her. I have to say they were great they listened to what I had to say gave really good advice. Vet agreed with them. 4/

Jemma Brown @jemmabrown.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

Because her cough suddenly seems much worse she’s at an emergency vet appointment and we are all kinda hoping she has a chest infection which honestly feels like a pretty sad thing to hope for. 3/

My mums guide dog had/s kennel cough it’s like the dog equivalent of flu/cold virus. She’s been on covering antibiotics and pain meds and doing lots better until today. She was cleared to be allowed off lead but started coughing and wheezing really bad. 2/
