Imagine waking up every morning (if you got any sleep in the first place) not knowing how your body would be that day… not knowing if you’ll be able to do what you plan to… not knowing if you’ll even be able to function. Many of us don’t need to imagine; it’s our everyday.

If you like my stories, then please consider supporting me either on Kofi or by joining my patreon. I still can't work full-time because of my current cancer treatment, which causes extreme fatigue amongst other symptoms, so ongoing support really, really helps!…

“Protect women”** ** “just not the ones we live with”

As a mother - as a human - I find it very difficult to look at these photos and not weep. “Rates of severe malnutrition among children aged under five at Médecins Sans Frontières’ Gaza City clinic have tripled in the last two weeks…” theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications This should also be banned Influence being bought in Govt Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy

can someone please explain why #pwme and #pwlc feel better during the evening hours?

The autistic experience of analysing situations extra deeply and noticing when things don’t make sense more often than a lot of people do, but questioning your perception because the idea that so many people could miss what you’ve noticed somehow sounds unrealistic - even though…

Disabled people in financial crisis has DOUBLED since 2022–23. This research was DELAYED until AFTER the vote it seems. • 52% can’t afford support • 61% can’t heat their homes • 64% can’t access essential care • 18% have had to use food banks Evil.tinyurl.com/3ufxtff6

We have learnt nothing from the past hundred years. Our world needs to be remade again, a world which permits this overt, undisguised, intimately recorded genocide is a world devoid of humanity, of anything other than the simplest mechanisms of hate and territorial lust.

Doctors DON’T have a final salary pension Doctors DON’T get their exams paid for Doctors DON’T get overtime Doctors DON’T get their equipment paid for Doctors DO pay for their own training Doctors DO pay for their own stationary Doctors DO earn less now than 2008 in real terms

Most disabled people don’t claim disability benefits… Many of those would be eligible, but they either choose not to, or are alienated from the process by how horrific it is. People vastly overestimate how many claim, how we are deemed eligible, and how much we get.

Doing my makeup on the train this morning and a random man told me he likes women to have a more natural look. I told him I like men to have a more silent look.🤷‍♀️

We still haven't spent as much money on small boat migrants as Sunak gave supermarkets during the lockdowns when they stayed open every day hoovering up windfall profits. You're being made to get angry at the wrong people so you don't get angry at the right people.

The government has told me there is “no need for an inquiry” into its role in Israeli war crimes. Meanwhile, starving Palestinians continue to be killed by a nation the UK continues to arm. Join us at thegazatribunal.uk to expose the truth about UK complicity in genocide.

The Mouse was waiting in a long line for rice. She was crying. She thought it might run out before she reached the front. No-one left even a grain behind from their portions. The sun was relentless and her feet hurt. Dizzying, fevered thoughts flowered and faded like Damask roses…

The Universal Credit Bill has passed. The Motion of Regret did not. I am heartbroken. We got powerful truths spoken in the Lords which may help later in legal and public fights. But.... What is this thing called Labour. Not something I morally recognise Love to all x

Pain with chronic illness isn’t just some occasional discomfort. It’s persistent, complex and often miserable. It’s not just aches, like most healthy people experience, chronic pain can be relentless and systemic. Here’s what the experts have to say about it. 1.Dr. Alan…

Disabled folk don’t have to do “exceptional” things, or be the next Hawking, to have value to society. They have value because everyone has value, and everyone deserves to live & be supported.
