i love the chronic illness community cos we understand how important it is to celebrate the little things that ableds can take for granted. you washed your hair? 10/10! made a cuppa? congrats! got through the day? yaaaasssss!

iโ€™m so DONE with people criticising disabled people for cancelling plans/missing work etc. but still being โ€˜well enoughโ€™ to go out and have fun, chronic illness fluctuates more than british weather, pls consider this before ur judgemental bullshit

gentle reminder that i donโ€™t use pepe emotes and i ask you to also not use them in my twitch chat pepe the frog is associated with alt-right groups who co-opted the image. itโ€™s a yt supremacist dog whistle and has even been listed as a hate symbol by the anti-defamation league

i refuse to apologise for the โ€˜negativityโ€™ of my tweets lately. too many disabled people are dying and i will not stop talking about it because yโ€™all non-disabled refuse to listen.

staying in a hotel as two wheelchair users often means we end up facing double the ableism and inaccessibility BUT when we were in london last week we stayed at @thezhotels Strand and i literally cannot fault them at ALL
