One of my reads on bed rest for a few days. To fellow PWDs I can't recommend enough.
As an older disabled person, coming through a recently difficult death of a partner, adjusting to a changing condition, and a new love, it's helped me with some new perspectives #MS #disabiltity

Methane from farms/industry/landfill is a massive problem. I've mapped the UK's emissions hotspots but there's a scrap over whether the official gov figures are worth the paper they're written on...

Tanni Grey-Thompson's transport nightmare is a waking reality for most disabled people
If Labour want to support disabled people, then experiences like Tanni Grey-Thompson's must be consigned to history

Wow...I mean it's 2024 and cavemen are still alive 🙄 the most distressing bit is, I linked through to the creepy "Citizens for New Louisiana" ... Who boast about their weird "private investigators" who "casually tailing someone from a nondescript automobile", seriously WTAF?
Great story about a heroine librarian, attacked by book-banning parents she thought were friends. “The crazy thing about this case is they get to wave the freedom of speech flag in the lawsuit, but what started all this is they want to ban books,” said Jones’s lawyer www.nytimes.com/2024/09/03/b...
From School Librarian to Activist: ‘The Hate Level and the Vitriol Is Unreal’
Amid a surge in book bans nationwide, the librarian Amanda Jones was targeted by vicious threats. So she decided to fight back.
