Video game giant Rockstar has sacked more than 30 workers across the UK, including my constituents working at their Edinburgh office. I urged Ministers to support workers who have lost their jobs, and stop this from happening again.

So one of my second cousins has spent the last two nights at my house. He’s 8, autistic, and I got an entire prologue from his side of the family when he asked if he could stay and I said yes. “____ is something else child. Are you sure? He going to run you grey.….”

I am not sharing or replying to posts about this filter so it’d doesn’t show up in peoples’ feeds.
Please DO NOT signal boost the video, it’s literally dangerous.
📢 IMPORTANT
The Tekken tweet doing the rounds is NOT showing something that is good for accessibility. It has already actively harmed multiple people. DO NOT share it. If you know that you are in any way photosensitive, don't view it.

It can clear up a lot of confusion around childhood trauma, when you recognize that abandonment is not just when someone walks away. It’s also when someone who is meant to protect you, allows others to hurt you.

The capitalists, CEOs, and executives are destroying livelihoods.
And the only way we can stop them is by applying huge amounts of pressure on them.
Join a union, organize your workplace, run campaigns for what you want and against the capitalists. Be a goose with a knife.

I have been thinking about what to do regarding the change on Xbox controllers. This is not about what I or you can do, but all of US. Please read this thread.
- Who does this policy affect unfairly? The disability community, millions of us.

My Xbox adaptive set up cost me over $360. 150 of that are devices that are currently not supported on the website. I already can't play my PlayStation. This is actually ridiculous. This is not only a waste of money, but now there would be no point in me having my Xbox
Xbox will block access to unapproved third-party accessories from November 12:

The more people who join, the more power we have together and the more we can support each other and push back against this cycle of redundancies at companies.
Over the last few days, we’ve so many game devs join our union. ❤️
