the information is in the images, but for disability pride month i’ve shared a version of my university dissertation. there are 2 posts, one is an easier to read shorter option.

i’ll attach the links in the next two messages.

for disability pride month, i've been reworking my dissertation into something less lengthy & academic. in my dissertation i was looking at how the US disability rights movement (& disability history generally) is remembered in books & other sources, especially the diversity of the movement, as well as looking specifically at two protests. the first is the section 504 sit in that was in San Fran (and is in the second half of crip camp!) and the second is Deaf President Now! which was at gallaudet university in D.C. i've done it in two options, one with my regular writing style (which is around 3,500 words) and an easier to read option (which is about 1500). the easier to read one focuses mostly on the events rather than analysis, mostly for length issues. would be very pleased if you gave it a read, and you're welcome to share it

these are the only memes i have to hand but i enjoy them quite a bit. i hope the awfulness eases soon for you
black & white line drawing of a construction worker holding a ‘slow’ sign. a turtle is facing him holding a matching sign that reads ‘rude’ two cells dividing with the text “see you later alligator” and “in a while crocodile”. the image is split with a black line & text that reads ‘2.4 billion years later’ there is an alligator on the left facing the middle saying “been a while” and a crocodile on the right facing the middle saying ‘i missed you’

look at my big finish/doctor who wall i am really happy with it
i adore the art prints especially the delgado!master one
a white wall with white shelves & 5 pictures in black frames. the shelves have a variety of big finish cds & one shelf holds a small globe. the frames arc round the top and left of the shelves & have images of the 4th & 7th doctor, delgado’s master, ace, and the cover from a torchwood big finish release with ianto on

the irony that its much easier to write out the one that isnt simple english
i am having fun w this though, i am remembering all sorts of things. time to stop for the night though my head is on fire.
(i am trying to share my dissertation (see img) without just posting it)
white text on black background reads: An examination of the diversity and intersectionality in the Disability Rights Movement in the United States, and how it has been documented in scholarship. With focus on the Section 504 activism in San Francisco, CA & Deaf President Now! at Gallaudet University, D.C.

in the meantime, have this quote from corbett o’toole about the 504 sit-in

if you watched ‘crip camp’ (and if you haven’t, do), the 504 sit-in was the demonstration in the latter half of the film.

white text on a black background reads: We succeeded because we did not do it the nondisabled way. Our success came directly from the skills we'd learned in order to survive as disabled people (O' Toole, 60-61).

disappointingly im missing tomb of the cyberman but none have come up on ebay so my 53 saved searches for variations on ‘doctor who cassette’ are kept busy.

i did get a great deal on big finish cassettes which i am collecting like a fool. why? i dont know. but it is nice to see them all there.
big finish cassette tapes on wooden square shelving unit. there are twelve cassettes, and they have white spines with the doctor who logo at the top & the big finish logo at the bottom. they are: 1 THE SIRENS OF TIME 2 PHANTASMAGORIA 6 THE MARIAN CONSPIRACY 7 THE GENOCIDE MACHINE 8 RED DAWN 9 THE SCEPTRE OF LANYON MOOR 10 WINTER FOR THE ADEPT 11 THE APOCALYPSE ELEMENT 12 THE FIRES OF VULCAN 13 THE SHADOW OF THE SCOURGE 14 THE HOLY TERROR 15 THE MUTANT PHASE
