We don't talk often enough about the fact that disabled people are twice as likely to experience poverty as non-disabled people, and that disabled women are 25% more likely again to experience poverty relative to disabled men.

@nemkearns.bsky.social and I are down in Cork this weekend at Q-Con with LINQ Ireland (representing @dw-ireland.bsky.social), giving a workshop on Cripping and Queering relationships. It's lovely to be in the same place as so many amazing queer people. Looking forward to tomorrow!

One week on from Dublin Maker, I’m still recovering, but only because it was such a brilliant, community-filled and conversation-packed two days. I first went to @dublinmaker.bsky.social in 2018 with Jelly Lab and I was instantly hooked.

Very exciting to see this all come together- and very much looking forward to tomorrow!
This weekend, the wind may be blowing - but our creativity and innovation will still be showing!

This is a little late, but I passed my Viva last month, and this week my PhD corrections were accepted - wrapping up 5 amazing years.

I am very grateful for all those who have supported me along the way. A particularly huge thanks to my supervisor Mark Pickering and @niamh-deburca.bsky.social
