The Bear had Trent Reznor score the season premiere and started another episode with a minutes-long montage of Chicago sights and restaurants set to Eddie Vedder dad rock. I concede that I can no longer objectively see or critique the show. I'm too close to it.

for RogerEbert.com, i reviewed Lena Dunham’s TOO MUCH, a disarmingly tender examination of love and belonging in a world driven by hyper-individualism. it’s funny, sharp, and undeniably the best comedy of the year. both Stalter and Sharpe are incredible. rogerebert.com/reviews/too-mu…

In the aftermath of the cuts passing, we are sending solidarity to all Disabled people who feel worried about the future. As a Disabled-led organisation, many of us feel the same - but these concessions showed the power of our movement, and that our strength to fight is growing!

Just gonna leave this here in case anyone conflates the recent debate on social security spending and reform with tonight's announcement... 👇

Today, I held my second forum with local organisations to discuss the Government’s changes to the Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Universal Credit Bill, and to see what actions I can take to continue supporting affected people in St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire.

We seem to be entering a dark period. Disabled people always faced prejudice, but it's so dangerous when public figures fuel it, amp up suspicion & the idea disabled people are either faking or burdens. Compassion & justice are our core values, we need to stay true to them. 1/2

The government must change how it treats people who’ve been overpaid benefits. A short thread 🧵 This often occurs when Department for Work and Pensions pays more in benefits than someone is entitled to, most often in Universal Credit, either due to DWP error or change in a person’s circumstances. 1/6

Sometimes we do something 'on the spur of the moment', or plans change. 'Turn Up And Go' is the train system that allows us, as disabled people, to do that. That's why it's so important it's included in statistics - it's as vital as knowing how many trains were late.

Today I have woken with a deep anger at everything. If everyone wants disabled people to play a greater role in society, said society needs to be more accessible, more inclusive & more welcoming to disabled people. We should be able to live as we choose.
