I just emailed two Unis about accessible accommodations for taking the Japanese Language Proficiency Test...

I won't be taking them until ABSOLUTE EARLIEST, December this year.

Just want to be prepared for the worst (^:

When we plead with you to wear a mask, we’re trying to help.

We understand that repeat Covid infections can lead to disability and death.

We understand that the government told us to go “back to normal” for the economy, not because it was safe.

An N95 is a great way to safeguard your health!

In Scotland some people will live their whole adult lives without ever getting gender affirming care, with one clinic’s demand creating a 224-year wait.

please help me report these Steam reviews (that ridicule my SA) made to my games. steam moderators cleared them as acceptable (so i can’t flag them) but i don’t think calling me a slur & bringing up my r*pist is acceptable.

I just managed to complete a Scrum course I started years ago and slide under the closing door of even being able to get a cert for it

But going back to it I realised it is soooo inaccessible for someone with multiple learning difficulties so I'm really proud I made it in the end!

I've decided to try and finally learn how to Rubix Cube as something to keep my hands busy instead of scrolling

Anyone got tips?

if you want an insane time, listen to a Japanese MAD while getting thrown about in a bumpy af East Anglia train toilet

Truly one of the experiences of all time
on train 2/3, much better seat this time, queue for the bog is unrelenting tho
I love trains until I am on trains and someone next to me acts fucking surprised someone is on the seat next to him, spills coke all over my table without apologising and immediately starts making weird grunting noises

It's been ten minutes

If rapture is real I'd like to book it in now, ta

Hey gang, please please please wear high quality masks to protect yourself from COVID, flu and Bird Flu. These diseases can and will kill, they aren't "just a cold".

If you have had COVID before, you're immunocompromised.

Please look after yourself ❤️

I was spoiled rotten by my partner and his family today - got CDs, DVDs, clothes, Pokémon cards, games, cute plushies, chocolates, a vinyl, a gorgeous print, a BUNCH of surprise Spamton merch, and more. Didn't do much and ate excellent food. I'm so glad I managed to have a good holiday 😌❤️
