Tagging along today to a panel on reproductive rights and justice for disabled women & girls (& menstruating ppl) at the Univ Otago Menstrual Health Research Network.

You’re too kind entirely! We had a lot of fun, and remembered your Australian visit (and craftivism) along the way. Was fabulous to spend some time with @profkrc.bsky.social talking care and all the things that get in the way of it…
