@criquaer people don't appreciate multiple tasks for simple and automatic things.
Only when you have an illness like #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis every step counts for your low battery🔋.
Good job!

Obviously, my #disabilities as inter alia a #pwME, #pwFM & #pwOA mean it may take me some time to transfer lists of followers, etc. In the meantime, feel free to follow me at @[email protected] For the time being, I shall cross-post toots until I have fully moved over to my new instance. Hopefully I shall not break the rules too often - it won’t be deliberate if I do! 🙏🏻🌈💕🤓💙

As inter alia a #pwME, #pwFM & #pwOA apart from physical issues my cognitive abilities are severely impaired. #Dyscognition aka #BrainFog or #FibroFog means I cannot consistently act as might be expected. It transpires I am too #disabled for disabled.social, as their list of rules & regs is rather large, and I have no hope of fulfilling their requirements on a regular basis. I have opted for mstdn.social which has a much shorter list of required behaviours. Now @[email protected]

“#AMAZON is Rarely Best Value on Many Items!” My latest blog-post…
As this is the first time I have linked my #blog here, it is entitled #Crippled #Queer #Anglo-European #Ranter, from which I take my #NomDePlume, #Criquaer. It covers #disabilities, #health, #travel in #Europe, #food & #cuisine, non-partisan #politics - but I am anti #UltraRightWing parties, and various #Personal interests.

"In reality, the ‘Law of Unintended Consequences’ is the justification used by successive administrations for social policies which were always destined to cause preventable harm, and guarantees that no administration will be held to account for what is government-induced human suffering on a vast scale."
Without #DisabilityRights
there is #DisabilityDiscrimination
which permits #DisabilityHate
and ultimately #DisabilityDeath. -

"Above all, it means recognising that #poverty is a political choice. Scotland shows that different outcomes are possible. Until the UK chooses differently, poverty will remain not just widespread, but deeper, more persistent and more destructive with each passing year. We need a politics of care. Right now we have a poverty of care."

#RichardMurphy is beginning to see the light in respect to #UBI #UniversalBasicIncome:
“What impressed me most about this conversation was the pragmatism underlying their radical proposals. They test policies for feasibility, affordability, and popularity. They recognise that introducing UBI in stages makes it familiar and non-threatening. They're willing to work with any party that takes up these ideas.”

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”

A week or so ago I was inspired to write a comment on a blog-post by #RichardMurphy. It is rare for me to be able to write so much in a relatively (for me) short period of time. I have reproduced my comment with a brief introductory explanation of #neoliberalism - the #EconomicSystem that Reform, Tories, Blue Labour and FibDems all support to the detriment of ordinary Brits. The Greens appear to be looking for an alternative #EconomicModel.

Digusting and shameful! The killer of tens of thousands of #Palestinians, the warmongering, illegal-occupying, apartheid #StateOfIsrael has been permitted to enter #EUROVISION in #Vienna 2026 without a vote, allowed instead via technocratic rule-changes.
We were due to visit the Austrian capital. That visit is now cancelled as we cannot in good conscience be counted as supporting #Israel. We shall visit #Austria at some other time instead.
