Don't randomly touch disabled people!

a man and a woman from the emperor 's new groove are standing next to each other and talking .

I have just been likened to Lauren Lyle from The Ridge... I don't see it myself, but I will absolutely take it as a compliment :) She is pretty (which I don't see myself as) and her accent is wonderful! :)

Not bad for a teeny sprout we found growing out of the sing drain!! A bell pepper seed found its way in there and started to grow, so I planted it to see what it was! Now it’s growing like mad and doing so well so far! We named it “Pep!”

As another of the leaders of Scrap the Green Paper can confirm the fear and harm these proposals caused. HH ignored our requests to meet or to accept a petition signed by thousands of Disabled people. And since this there has been a marked increase in reviews of DA recepients, to punish us

Emma Q Burns @betaburns.bsky.social · 27d

People don't realise how malicious the 'reforms' proposed by Heather Humphreys to disability supports were. Very few people appreciate the work put in by disabled activists to resist those reforms or the lasting damage caused. No apology or even acknowledgement, HH is not a President for all #Áras25

I was one of the leaders of Scrap The Green Paper because I & my friends were suicidal after learning proposals for ~84% of disabled to be pushed into work

I've not recovered from pushing myself to fight it, nor my friends

I'm so broken & Humphreys wants a house in the park on our backs

Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you'll never watch again and one song you can't stand...

Food: Salmon

Movie: Grave of The Fireflies (An absolutely STUNNING movie, but just too toooo sad)

Song: I'll Be There For You By The Rembrandts

It's fantastic this is happening for artists.

But let's look at those most vulnerable. Many with no hope of extra income. They get an extra €10 a week - even the HIGHEST possible pension rate makes that €319pw.
Not a cent extra in Living Alone Allowance or Household Package.

#IrishPolitics

Melissa @melissabreen.bsky.social · Oct 7

The Basic Income for the Arts Scheme is €325 a week, similar to what they gave out during the pandemic. This is how much they've deemed one needs in order to live in Ireland. So why is disability benefit only €244? Why are disabled and sick people expected to live so far below the poverty line?

The stress and worry that woman caused is off the scale.
People with disabilities were looking at the results of similar 'initiatives' in the UK and seeing increased poverty, sufficating despair, official bullying, and suicides.
