Bandwagon meet jumping. I'll be remaining active on X/Twitter, but come follow me anyway or drop your username below so I can find you! I'm boring, so yes it's the same username.

One of many differences between sex offenders and disabled people, that continues to confuse Reform voters, is that only one of those groups goes on a register.

The risk of not being able to get on the train, not being able to get in the wheelchair space, not being able to get off the train, and being blamed by staff for any issues while paying through the nose for the privelege was simply not worth it.

Was supposed to be going somewhere this weekend, but lack of investment in the north means there's no bus between 2 places an hour apart. No biggie, right? Except, the prospect of having to navigate trains as a disabled person at short notice put me off going altogether.

My favourite genre of man is the ones that get visibly confused when I don't automatically move out of their way.

Not to sound like a Boomer but... Finally "upgraded" to wireless earbuds and now I have to charge a case to charge my headphones that then need updating to be able to listen to music. HOW IS THIS AN IMPROVEMENT?!?

This is huge! 8 genetic markers identified in ME/CFS patients, in genes controlling the immune and nervous systems. It was NEVER in our heads. https://t.co/vlC45F4wyN

Advice needed: I need a cup holder for my new wheelchair. However, I cant attach anything to the base that would impact it folding up. It would need to be easy to remove. The arm bars are also not circular, so anything clipped to them tends to fall off. Recommendations?

Happy Leeds Pride! Theres been a lot of biphobia this year, so here's your reminder that perhaps the biggest queer influence on mainstream pop culture was, in fact, bisexual. #pride #LeedsPride #queen #FreddieMercury #bisexual

I only received a ticket refund from the gig organisers after chasing, got a bare minimum apology, and no reason for the change of venue was ever given.

I hope people enjoy @TheBlackout and @ffaf_official gig tonight. Not that I'll be there, because the gig organisers moved it to an inaccessible location despite knowing several disabled people had bought tickets. The @O2AcademyLeeds have illegally closed the lift for renovations.

Spontaneously got my eyebrow pierced. Side note: it's damn near impossible to do anything spontaneous when you're disabled, especially something like a piercing.

Update: the other queer group I'm involved in is marching this year - at the head of the parade!

Between John Wick and Superman, I think we now know the key to a successful movie is having the leading man crash out over a dog.

Just been caught listening to the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack at work. I may never live this down.
