TW:-
Suicide

Disabled people in the UK are facing their biggest threat - assisted suicide.

Every empathy with those in desperate situations who make desperate decisions.

But these laws never stay static.

In Canada the state by AS is the 5th biggest killer. In Belgium, teenagers use this law>

Met this lad looking for directions once when I was chugging for Shelter in the West End

He was every bit as chill and cool in real life as he was on screen

Chatted away about the film industry/Hollywood for ages and shook endless hands

Absolutely sound

RIP Mr Blonde

Happy Paddys Day to all that celebrate 🇮🇪 ☘️ 💚🤍🧡 💣

Not the Brits though they can fuck off (*the Brits is shorthand for the establishment & the arms of the state so don’t be crying at me if you’re British and not the establishment or a cop/squaddie/DWP etc)

We earned that yesterday

Wasn’t a great game but was a great result

Going to be ups & downs til we get ourselves together properly

But results like this build confidence and show what’s possible.
Time was we’d have lost this game despite how well we grafted

Amad Diallo - just wow

United have been in decline for over a decade.

Restructuring the senior management team & first team coaching set up will have an affect - but not yet.

The owners bear huge responsibility for where we are as a club.

But these players just aren’t good enough. Or strong enough mentally.

Wicked’s depiction of disability is refreshing – thanks to authentic casting and an accessible set

As a huge fan of the musical, and a researcher in disability studies, I was interested to see if this casting decision represented a change in attitude towards the character.

> If you’re in the UK contact your local MP and tell them to vote No on Friday.

If not in UK please share this so your UK contacts can see it

Disabled People are fighting for our lives.

This bill would cause abuse, increased suicides & preventable deaths

Stop it in its tracks
