Reposted by Jay RattrayErin Biba @erinbiba.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Queer communities are actually pretty much the only spaces that still give a fuck about the health of the disabled and chronically ill. They’re certainly the only place I’ve found continuing support (and I’m not even queer!). We should be celebrating and emulating that acceptance. 7625136

Jay Rattray @msjayteer.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I binned my Threads account because it was too depressing. But honestly it doesn’t matter what social media app it is or if you block it completely.

Jay Rattray @msjayteer.bsky.social · 23/09/2026The Sir Walter Scott Prize was just won by a novel with a premise so mind numbingly awful it borders on white washing the horrors of what happened to disabled people, particularly autistic people in WW2. 110
Reposted by Jay RattrayEb @ebthen.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Let's be real and also acknowledge that the fact that this involves demands for accessibility and cultural changes out of concern for Disabled people is part of why folks who consider themselves politically to the left are so eager to jump on this bandwagon.

Jay Rattray @msjayteer.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Watching The National’s YouTube video about the disabled woman in the Western Isles suing the local cafe for disability discrimination.
