Some days I'm like yes here are my interesting and nuanced thoughts on being disabled and the perspective it gives me and some days I'm just like fuck being disabled is so hard. It's so, so hard.

Once you give yourself to loving clouds it never ends

If you teach research methods and haven’t considered it, I suggest including material on the impact of data centers. I scheduled the topic under the section on research ethics.

Aotearoa timeline cleanse! ain't no party like a pīwakawaka party 😍 thank you @samneilltheprop "LUCKY BIRDS ! So all the grape skins, stalks and other waste are back from the winery. Except of course, none of it is waste. It is turning into beautiful organic compost ... Yum! Fruit Flies!"

this isn’t a funny dunk on the bigots or some outrage bait but please, for the love of all things good, read this. thank you appreciate you bye 🫶🏽

OMG, thank you so much.

it is time to bring out the greatest poem our country ever produced

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get a library card and explore your local public library. I plan to do so next weekend.

New #longcovid article citing the dismal state of business-as-usual care for people with LC in New Zealand 🇳🇿

"Dr Hana Ngata, a GP in regional Aotearoa, has seen a pattern emerging in her clinic since the COVID‑19 pandemic. Young people, kaumātua, parents, teachers – all describing the same strange mix of exhaustion, crashes after activity, dizziness, gut issues, and pain...

To add to this thread although the virus was only identified in the 70s, Indigenous epidemiology has been around for centuries. The oral history traditions of the Diné talked of the disease that came with the rains & increased rodent population due to the abundance of food. asm.org/articles/202...

FREE EVERLEE WIHONGI "WE MUST SHOW UP! 📅 Sat 16 May ⏰ 1pm 📍 Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade – 23 Quay St, Akld DEMAND answers for Everlee. Demand Minister Peters ACT NOW. CAN’T ATTEND? Email the Minister immediately: 📧 [email protected] Tell him: Find Everlee Wihongi." @toitu_te_aroha

new zealander everlee wihongi was due to meet with her lawyer yesterday. then ICE moved her to their most notorious tent facility in texas: 3000 people, highest death rate, most sexual assaults. and today, she disappeared off the system. please RT: www.webworm.co/everleehasdi...

Can't help but notice that most of the people freaking out about hantavirus are people who stopped masking the moment Biden said that covid was over and only killing disabled people so nothing to worry about.

Sorry, I can't this weekend. I have plans with my cats.

Anyway, get to ground. It's always my *advice* [when I offer any]. Get hyper local. Find your people and fight where you are. This is where you can make the most impact and a real difference. Do this as much as you can, take care of yourself, and take care of your people.

No amount of budgeting or avoiding eating out can make up for the fact that we don't earn enough anymore.

That they are breaking the law cannot be the rallying cry. Slavery was legal. Every person who freed themselves and others was breaking the law. The law will not save us.

We turned rivers into road and wetlands into suburbs. Extreme weather turns them back to rivers and wetlands. This is what the #ClimateCrisis looks like.

We all deserve more ease. That's really it.

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

March is Long COVID Awareness Month. This is an excellent guide on how to support your friend who lives with ME/CFS and Long COVID #LongCovidAwareness

Please, if you see posts from people with Long Covid on any platform this month: Reshare them. #longcovidawarenessmonth #longcovidawarenessday

You, an individual, cannot "fix" the whole world. You can act at the scale of your life. You should act at the scale of your life.

Like Toni Morrison said, “I would like my work to do two things: be as demanding and sophisticated as I want it to be, and at the same time be accessible in a sort of emotional way to lots of people, just like jazz. That's a hard task. But that's what I want to do.”

“There’s no single answer that will solve all our future problems. There’s no magic bullet. Instead there are thousands of answers—at least. You can be one of them if you choose to be.” ― Octavia E. Butler, A Few Rules for Predicting the Future: An Essay

"The world isn’t ending. A world is ending. Our job is to midwife the next one."

“Part of being a revolutionary is creating a vision that is more humane. That is more fun, too. That is more loving. It's really working to create something beautiful." — Assata Shakur (July 16, 1947- September 26, 2025)

ok pls stop saying ur “in the middle of nowhere” if ur describing somewhere unfamiliar/out of te big cities. ur on Māori land !! and that’s the center of someone’s universe !

Tāmaki whānau, please go to this protest by Block the Ban against the Government's transphobic ban on puberty blockers for trans youth on Sunday 7th December from 10AM at Myers Park. Everyone, including trans youth, deserves access to healthcare. www.facebook.com/events/11854...

Race studies is some of the most disrespected scholarship in the academy. Yet, as Stuart Hall said, “I am convinced that no intellectual worth his or her salt… can afford to turn dispassionate eyes away from the problems of race and ethnicity that beset our world.”

Fuck Bali! Roasted one of my friends at a party on Friday night, after he was sharing his holiday plans to go to Indonesia. This bitch knows there's a fucking genocide in West Papua and still doesn't give a fuck. Bitch got uncomfortable and left. I DGAF!! Be uncomfortable bitch!! #FreeaWestPapua

Your wellness routine should include taking precautions to avoid multiple covid infections that damage your immune system, hope that helps. 🌟💕

WHAT? WE ARE SHADOWBANNED ON TWITTER AND HAVE ONLY A LITTLE OVER A THOUSAND FOLLOWERS HERE! SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE!!! 😒

there’s a few minor errors in my PhD and I love them. It makes the work feel so human and reflects how messy and REAL the whole experience was. I, Hana, the human, wrote that 😍

my māmā is at WIPCE 2025! her first ever conference, she is having the best time. it’s also so cool for her to get a sense of the Indigenous academic spaces and voices that radicalised me.

💔 Alice Wong’s last words: “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.” We can never thank Alice enough for fighting all the good fights and especially all the hard fights. We all learned so much from your brilliance, your courage, and your indefatigable leadership. We will never forget you.

“Don’t let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.”

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

my love @haylzk.bsky.social wrote this beautiful piece reflecting on ableism, long covid and the world(s) we are moving thru ✨ kia ora xx

June Jordan said, "Activism... propels you forward, from one hard hour to the next. Believing that you can do something to make things better, you do something, rather than nothing... You do whatever you can. You reach beyond yourself in your imagination, and in your wish for understanding.“

10 months no alcohol feels good bro

"Some are children who can no longer attend school. Others are young adults who were once thriving and are now bed-bound. Many are mothers and fathers who can no longer care for their own families. They don’t just need a doctor. They need multidisciplinary care." #longcovid #mecfs
