You know the way AI can't properly create hands? Neither can dreams. I don't know what this means but it means something

We want you to meet Carla

With family's permission we're sharing some videos of her experience in West Middlesex hospital.

This first video is what happens when she is exposed to bright light. Staff won't cover the door window.

Last year, Nestle announced it was closing its baby formula plant in Ireland due to declining demand in China. Adding sugar to its products is an effort to increase demand & grow markets, in the process shortening the lives of people across Global South.

'Mothers of disabled children are disproportionately excluded from the labour market. Just 16% of mothers with disabled children work, compared with 61% of other mothers.' - this stat via the Guardian today (though it's quite old, 2005). I have so many thoughts on this

I love the fucking hero of a woman recording. Guy’s name is Thomas Elliot from NC and he got arrested for this and is no longer allowed to volunteer at the elementary school he had been frequenting✨

Nael (any pronouns) anti-authoritarianism or bust Anti-ableism itself is a key element of being a true progressive because sexism and racism are BOTH built on a foundation of 'this group is weak/lazy/unintelligent/inherently corrupt.'

This is what happens when thousands of people campaign for something and then abandon it as soon as they've done enough to pat themselves on the back

Fascinating that a report in a different country about Trans healthcare is something Ireland needs to apparently implement, but an Irish report about abortion services, commissioned by the Government, has the Government and other politicians shaking their heads.

We're grateful to everyone who came to join us, IPSC & Peace and Neutrality Alliance (Ireland) at Shannon today to demand . Biggest demo in years at the airport; so many people responding to the urgent need to stop Ireland's support for military aggression and genocide.
