I was invited on a local podcast where I talked a little bit about my family’s history and a lot about living with #MS. #Disability.

MS meme: “Put on a pair of heavy gardening gloves, pick up a pencil, then stab yourself in the arm with it.” I read it & laughed. Today I dropped a pencil on the floor and with my heavy MS hands, managed to pick it up, then stabbed myself in the hand with it. I didn’t laugh.🤬 #ThisIsMS #MS #FUMS

Remembering my great uncle, Private Michael Francis Kennedy, Royal Newfoundland Regiment, one of The First 500 “Blue Puttees, killed in action in the battle of Beaumont Hamel, July 1, 1916. We honour all who served, and those who serve to protect us still. Democracy is a precious thing.

I wish people would stop fixating on causes and cures for Autism and neurodiversity more broadly. It's time people listen to us, especially Neurodivergent people of color, women and others who are often excluded. Let actually Autistic and Neurodivergent people take the lead. This shouldn't be hard.

My #CanCon #CanadianContent moment for the week is brought to you from the Yukon. Gurdeep’s #dance of Joy, Hope and Positivity as we stand with Greenland. #Canada #ElbowsUp 🇬🇱 🇨🇦
Canada stands shoulder to shoulder with Greenland.
Today's dance expresses solidarity with the resilient Greenlandic Inuit people and all other communities who form the lovely fabric of Greenland.
Invaders may persist, but your resilience will prevail.
