This Disability Pride month, I’m grateful for the readers who say Who Wants Normal? is helping them feel more valued and confident. This book was never about downplaying inequality but proudly rejecting the shame and stereotypes the non-disabled world forces on us. With jokes.
its interesting that Politics UK have linked to this bullshit site whilst talking about an article that doesn't link to it, when Politics UK were a big catalyst behind "motability fraud" becoming the story as far back as December, posting lies and opinion as if they're facts.

I was invited to the grand opening of the new lifts at Leatherhead station today. I expect @networkrail @SouthernRailUK are regretting that now! £6.2 million on lifts that are the bare minimum in size and not comfortably big enough for my reference wheelchair 70cm by 120 cm/1

how amazing it must have been seeing this scene for the first time in theaters
YA'LL THE NIMBUS COVID VARIANT IS CAUSING RAGING HEMORRHOIDS. But no one is talking about it because its embarrassing and, well, pretty gross. So now you know. Beware the Razor Butt Variant.
Yes. But it’s very common with Nimbus. And people are embarrassed to talk about it. 🤷🏽♀️

had a ticket to see Pulp at tramlines but ended up too sick to go, so i’m just getting texts from james & his sister live-narrating their adventures (so far: poutine, beer, and john cooper clarke) while i lie in bed, & i’m simultaneously enjoying their enjoyment & also very sad!
you ever read a tweet so asinine it pushes you one step closer to logging off forever???
Blocking people is so woman-coded. Do men even use the “block” function?

This is just to say I have already eaten the apple that you think is a plum I cannot prove it is an apple I have eaten it Forgive me (But since you guys are annoying I might actually track down the stupid tree and find more apples to prove it is in fact an apple)
Foraged a wild apple from the woods, bit into it and discovered its flesh was blood red. Now await my prince in a glass coffin
Ah to be a woman. Posts a picture of a cute and unique red-fleshed apple, which tastes like an apple, only to have people telling you it’s a plum. There’s a great metaphor here.

the fact that people were even attempting to well, actually this when Moniza was the one who ATE THE APPLE IRL is killing me
I cannot believe there is now a conspiracy theory that this is actually a plum. Guys. I live in the suburbs of Manchester. The place is full of apple trees. This is just one weird variety that I randomly happened to find. Apples with red flesh exist

It's easy to focus on names and party colours, but the establishment of a left-wing challenger to Labour is a serious threat. In other European nations (see France, Germany) the hard left has cost left-of-centre, social democratic parties dearly. In an increasingly fragmented…
