After a year of “scrounger” headlines from the right wing press, I’m so glad to see The Guardian give space to disabled and chronically ill young people voicing the reality for themselves. theguardian.com/society/2023/d…

The government has today confirmed, after a week of uncertainty, that they are scrapping the dedicated role of Minister for Disabled People. This announcement sends an appalling message to the 16 million disabled people in the UK. 🔗 inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

The Tory attack on benefits is performative cruelty. It won’t boost employment or even make big savings. But it will hurt the right people. My col. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Six years ago I was sectioned on a children’s mental health unit. A year later, I was diagnosed with autism. ‘Girl Unmasked: How Uncovering My Autism Saved My Life’ is the story of how I got there - and how I very nearly didn’t. Out 28 March 2024 and you can pre-order now! 🥹

Thank you so much to the fab people, particularly the amazing autistic and ND people, who have been so supportive today. Romance is the genre that brought me back to books as a teen, but disability was never there. To have an autistic, bi girlie get such love today? Amazing.

Am old enough to have seen previous West backed/supported genocides. This is different. I have not seen this lack of shame, this brazen lack of even a pretence of caring for human right or basic morality. This is imperial Whiteness laid bare at its most monstrous grotesqueness

I feel what is happening in my body. I've never felt like this before. I've felt revulsion at mass murder & I've felt anger. I've felt sadness and sorrow. I've never felt like this before in my life. All the most powerful governments in the world are backing speedrunning genocide

i am honestly all out of words for the pain, anger and disappointment i feel at the media’s need to constantly invalidate and shit all over ADHDers. @thetimes @Philippa_Perry we are a group of disabled people that have been repeatedly let down and we deserve better!!!!!!

being both autistic and adhd is wanting to explode if someone else is 30 seconds late for something, but always being late yourself x sorry x

I’m thrilled to share the cover of my new novel - IN THE SHALLOWS - which is published in February. It was illustrated by Sarah Maxwell, who also did the equally stunning illustration for AFTERLOVE, and was designed by Joana Reis. You can pre-order here: geni.us/InTheShallows

I think one of the biggest things about being disabled that I want other people to understand is how harrowing and hard a process getting disability benefits (which you normally have to do every 3 years!) is. It’s dehumanising and so full of lies and deceit.

@LucyCuthew Oh, yes, thank you for articulating this so well. I loved it (the visuals, Ryan Gosling, the fun of cinemas packed with excitable people all dressed in pink) and will definitely go and see it again, but also… all of the above. 👏

Conclusion: I loved it and I feel really disappointed. I’ll also probably go and see it again. What did you think?

I avoided reading any commentary on the Barbie movie because I wanted to watch it unswayed so this might all have already been said, but these are my thoughts in no particular order. *contains spoilers* What did you think of it? I would love to know.
