I think I've cracked the Blake family tree! Dodger/Sienna are Jez’s kids & Patrick’s niece/nephew. Will, Lib are Dirk’s children & Dilly & Minnie are Patrick’s. Lib & Will are Sienna/Dodger’s half siblings. Dilly/Minnie are Sienna’s cousin's. #Hollyoaks @Hollyoaks

Love this thread on how athletes utilize different variations of the same assistive technology for specialized tasks! I continue to be super excited for the upcoming #Paralympics2024

@HeatherFunk_ @zencoffeebreak For real. With 0 spoons it is totally possible I can't make myself eat anything at all. maybe an Ensure that I can get down in 2 gulps? but getting out of bed to even get that isn't guaranteed.

@zencoffeebreak 0 spoons is trying to stay alive. Meds, food, water, bathroom. And most 0 spoon days I require help with these tasks as I can’t get out of bed alone on those days.

My first journal article was published this week and is now available for download! 🥳 In it, I talk about the role of whiteness and intimacy in depicting desirable disabled masculinity in (mostly queer) fanfic. Plz take a look / share 💜 pij3.puntoorginternationaljournal.org/index.php/PIJ/…

Hi all! I am currently working on my dissertation and would love if you would share this flyer with anyone relevant. I'm hoping to interview people who have used 3+ prosthetic limbs over their lives & will provide any participants with compensation for their time.

Body & Culture is a very broad division with interest in any work on bodies / embodiment across disciplines and methodologies. Please reach out if you'd like to discuss whether a potential project would be a good fit. I look forward to reading your submissions!

It continues to be ridiculous that the world's deadliest infectious disease is CURABLE, yet six people died from it in the time it took me to write this tweet. @DanaherCorp denying millions access to affordable, accurate TB tests is unacceptable. #PeopleOverProfits

. @DanaherCorp makes 8 billion dollars in annual profits. Much of that profit comes from price-gouging the world's poorest countries for life-saving tuberculosis tests. Danaher has done this in the dark for 13 long years. Today, we shine the light. #PeopleOverProfits
