My visit to the LGBT+ Traveller+ residency at @queerbritain was something very, very special. Seeing Nan and Shaan was awesome and spending time with everyone who I've been working on this with was amazing. It's so nice to celebrate our selves as LGBT+ Travellers

You really can't exist as a Gypsy or Traveller person without someone having an issue with it. If your just living your normal life your a "nuisance", if you keep to yourself your "suspicious" if you're dealing with outer community truama your "unfriendly" (1)

Irish Travellers shouldn't use the Romani flag, we are a separate people with our own history. Our history has (for multiple reasons) largely been lost and that's why actual Traveller educators are so important.

Here's another instance of Travellers and Gypsies getting treated like they're subhuman. Group in Scotland find this cretin deciding to threaten to break up their homes if they don't leave and "go back to Ireland". This is what Priti Patel's #PoliceBill looks like in action.

I still get quite emotional when I think about the lovely little song about pride and self worth sang by Traveller children called "Proud To Be A Traveller" become a meme and be made a laugh of.

Could you imagine if that was a Gypsy Traveller what the reaction would be? The UK is run by a particular class of people and if you just so happen to be born into it then your golden because you can do no wrong. My curses to her

People on TikTok are discussing the lack of a 'third place' and how it is connected with over consumption. It makes me think of the campfires that Gypsy Traveller families relied on. It was way more than just cooking and heat. It was a place for socialising.

Basically this guy paid for a digital painting but instead got an AI image. This will happen more often so going forward the connection between Artist and potential customer will need to be nourished in order to instil confidence in the integrity of the Artist

I'm sorry to announce that I confronted my artist with the evidence dug up by the community proving he used AI to generate the cover, and I was met with silence. He has completely left social media. I stood up for him because I thought he was my friend. Turns out he wasn't.

Someone just said to me "you're not a Gypsy are you?" after a sigh I explained that it's not the right way to ask that question. Tbf he immediately apologised. The media have played a large part in creating a very narrow depiction of Gypsy and Traveller people.

The 'stopping stones' that prevents us from accessing clean, safe and dignified spaces are a physical/visual symbol of our ostracisation from within this society as nomads, and also it's advancements in LGBT+ rights as queer individuals.

The hatrid towards Traveller people shows up in just about every place. Work, friends, nights out, taxis, political gatherings, school, even online dating. It's not always loud and direct but the impact is felt still.
