How your email finds me
Sometimes I wonder what I'd do with all the extra time in my life if I didn't have to lie down in a dark room for 15-30 minutes every time I shower.
Spider for scale? Munchies protein? Oh my 😱
Yiiiikes 💩
In 2020 I thought we were in a disability/tech job revolution. Now I'm looking at ODSP forms while totally able and willing to work (just from home)
Disability twinning? I couldn't apply to a job I was totally qualified for, in the industry I've worked in for five years, because they are believers in "in-person synergy"
I am so sick of job postings requiring on-site work for gigs that could totally be done remotely. My disabled ass doesn't care about your company culture or in-person synergy if you don't care about inclusivity and accessibility. I'm getting excluded from the workforce all over again.
Amen! The difference in timelines is unreal
I really hope you find something so you don't always have to advocate for these things. The UK is lucky to have you that's for sure.
I wish I had recommendations in your country. It took me years to find a place where groups don't allow that kind of storytelling. I learned that we all had PTSD for different reasons but the treatment is the same. It made me feel less alone. Our stories may be unique but our symptoms aren't.
This is my first post. Been on here for months but anxiety is a bitch. What should I say?? Be funny or profound? Fuck it. I'm Kenough 💞
Thanks Doug!
