People with intersex biological characteristics make up about 1.5-2% of the population. So much for there only being two sexes.

Don’t want to intrude on other country’s politics, babes but feel like the US’s “executive orders” thing has a few shortcomings. Almost as if one areshole shouldn’t be enabled to make a bunch of far reaching decisions without any checks or balances. Almost like…the King of England?

I seem to have gained a number of followers here, despite having posted virtually nothing! Thank you to everyone who has followed me - I hope to be more active in 2025.

I begin by sharing a post on New Year that I wrote a few years ago. (1/4)
Is There Hope in a New Year?
Life has made me wary of looking too far ahead.  Even before the turmoil of 2020, my road was one of uncertainty.  New Year has long felt like standing on a cliff edge and looking down: t…

Many people are unaware that the UK added DNRs to charts of patients with learning disabilities.

They also had a whiteboard where they wrote the question “who do we not save?”

The great unmasking, unsafe healthcare & push for assisted dying seems to have answered that question.

The disabled.

Hundreds voted on the assisted dying bill - but only 16 come to celebrate disabled lives (and not a single conservative MP)

They will give us the right to die - but when we ask for accommodations, accessibility, proper healthcare, affordable housing… it’s crickets.

My thoughts on the insanity we’re witnessing: a shadow president, an unelected billionaire, working to dismantle our institutions with a fake, non-governmental agency, all while the media treats Musk's actions as if they’re perfectly normal.

Many of us here knew Debbie on Twitter back when she was able to use her phone to communicate. Sadly, she lost that ability a few years ago now.

We mustn’t forget Debbie & those like her, who lie both unseen & unheard in darkened rooms 💔 😪 #MillionsMissing #MEcfs #LongCovid
