When you say only the “genuinely disabled” should receive support, you’re aiding fascism.

When you say people are scamming the system, you’re aiding fascism.

Many disabilities are invisible and it’s hard to get support.

People aren’t scamming. That’s “useless eater” rhetoric designed to divide.

Sleeping like a kitten

A black and white cat wearing a yellow collar lies on his back with his paws raised, peacefully asleep on a white blanket.

question: if i wanted to get two doodles, what's the easiest way to do that for you? two separate agents requests, or if i do one request can you add on the extra or something? (sorry, i haven't used vgen before so i'm not sure what the back end is like/what's possible!)

sushi is sooooo mad that shrimp is eating treats and she isn't

this is because she already ate her treats while shrimp was running away from attempts to put him in front of the treats, but all she takes from this is "shrimp has treats and i don't"

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Podcasting is Praxis @praxiscast.bsky.social · 5d

what "normal", regular person with a UK passport regularly "flexibly communicates in academic situations"?

Just say you're doing racist languages exams again. It's easier and the people you want to persuade will also understand that (and still not vote for you).

children of the corncob @bisk.sureis.sexy · 5d

fuck off with this shit you racist cunts.

i forgot the word "tumbledryer" the other day so i called it a tumbley bumbley and english is my only fucking language.

abolish the home office.

Changes to the English language requirement were first reported in May when the government published their early plans in the immigration white paper. The new standard requires people to express themselves “fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expression” and to be able to communicate flexibly in social, academic and work situations.

she never like. Goes Anywhere but she wants to sniff around in the hallway and does not comprehend basic concepts like "that's not our apartment" or "the entire world doesn't belong to you"
