"The more disabled people speak up, that's how change will happen." Disability benefits are a lifeline for millions in the UK, but this support is under increasing threat. Sign our petition now and say no to more cuts for disabled people: action.sense.org.uk/page/188369/pet…

Here's one I just found! I think this was when I had just broken up with my ex (hence all the emotional pain). I need to dig out the rest.

You & Us by Cathy Waller Company is a powerful double bill of live contemporary dance and film, accompanied by a striking photographic exhibition. When: 07 May Where: The Place, London Cost: £16-£20 disabilityarts.online/events/you-u...
A dancer is shown from the back, wearing a dark, shiny tracksuit, while being embraced by a second dancer whose face is visible over their shoulder. The image is set against a vibrant, solid lime-green background with a slightly grainy, high-contrast texture.

I might have to do some shoddy phone photos- I saw at least 2 of the drawings the other day when I was 'tidying'.

I need to resurrect my pain drawings, I don't know if it helped anyone understand what it was like to be in my body, but it helped me. I like this diary cards.

I need to scan in my drawings/comic that I made showing all my multiple types of pain- very reminiscent of your image with pains marked on it.

And that is what a day would've been like if I was still on Twitter- endless posts about nothing in particular, mainly talking to myself to prove I actually did a thing. Also just remembered I scrubbed the bird feeders and retired them until they are needed again.

The seal on the door had broken and it was (very) slowly defrosting, so now I am trying to defrost a freezer for possibly only the second time in my life. The fridge has been on the blink too so maybe the landlord will replace them and I shall have a full set of functional white goods.

Still learning how to post threads on here as you can see. Following my triumph (and cake) I got a cushion from the charity shop, went and did some dull work related emails, got some curry and came home to a puddle of water on the floor next to my freezer.

The point I 'won' was that using ai to celebrate workers, whilst stealing work/jobs/water was the worst idea ever. I don't know how I managed to do it but I think sitting down and saying 'right, let's sort this out then' helped. 52 years avoiding confrontation and maybe I've cracked it ?

This was followed by a heated 'debate' about using ai and images of Lenin to create posters to advertise events on May 1st. There were so many examples of multiple arms it was almost endearing. I managed to assert myself for possibly the first time in my life, but had to have a cake afterwards.

Today has been the sort of day that if I still had Twitter I would be constantly updating about all the mundane things I've done. First action of the day- drafting an Access to Work change of circumstances application, then onto meeting an artist in residence and taking payment from her.

Suella Braverman’s parents emigrated (those horrible economic migrants not from a war zone she hates). She went to Cambridge for free and didn’t collect £27k debt like everyone else. Scrounger. She used the Erasmus scheme to study in France. Which she has blocked. Horrible.

Today I did some diy- helped my friend recover some chairs, hang some fabric and generally doing stuff like drinking tea & gossiping. An all new look for Stargazy cafe in Penryn, previously a cafe serving Italianish food, now a cocktail and cakes/sundaes bar- opening 6pm Friday.
A colourful room in Stargazy cafe. There is blue wallpaper with oranges, lemons and birds on one wall. Against the wall is a gold coloured sofa with 3 velvet cushions on. There are mirrors on the wall and a blackboard with a cocktail menu on. There is a standard lamp with gold trim, a red table and a soft blue chair.

Six of the seven dialysis centers in Gaza have been destroyed during the war, the World Health Organization said earlier this year, citing the territory’s Health Ministry.

Dialysis patients struggle to get treatment in blockaded Gaza. Hundreds have died, officials say
Israel has restricted the supply of humanitarian aid throughout much of the war and imposed a complete blockade more than six weeks ago.

Oh Bluesky how I want to love you, but despite deleting Twitter from my phone at the start of March I still yearn for the snarkiness (and also the sensible debate). I keep wanting to check back in as it really was the funniest place to keep track of Elon's meltdowns. Where am I going wrong here?

I didn't know it was the 9 year anniversary of the death of my Grandma today, but my cells did. I picked flowers and herbs from the #carparkgarden and put them in a tiny jug that belonged to her. I have cried twice today and I didn't know why, now I do.
A jug of flowers on a table. The jug is black with white polka dots on, it is 'Piazza wear' from the 1950s and belonged to my Grandma. The table is covered in a white fabric table cloth from the 1940s with blue, yellow and red flowers on. There are primroses, hellebore, forget me not, mint, rosemary and lavender in the jug. Today is the anniversary of my grandma's death and I miss her a lot.

The Netanyahu government has killed 50,000 people in Gaza & wounded 112,000. Two weeks ago, they broke the ceasefire and have since killed 322 children & wounded 600. The US must end its complicity. Tomorrow, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in arm sales to Netanyahu.
