Happy to report that the red emergency cord in my room is now where it’s supposed to be and @HolidayInn Chester West is now scoring 10/10 for accessibility and personal service. Thanks to manager Jen and other staff, who have all been great. (And I’ve found the kettle) 🙏🏽 – at Wales, United Kingdom
ALT Image shows the far end of the red emergency cord which is now located centimetres from the floor, where it should be.
Naughty naughty @holidayinn Chester West - next time you let a room to a Disability Access Consultant UNTIE the emergency cord. Not only is this one nowhere near the floor but it’s way too entangled for me to untie by myself. – at Wales, United Kingdom

We don’t know if he was ugly or has been treated abominably as a child or what has led to this behaviour but for the safety of all women he can’t be allowed to roam free in society unless he can be helped to change his mindset. There is a middle way.
Yes, I agree. That’s why I added ‘...and reeducating about appropriate relationships with women’ because if only the prison system could do that, wouldn’t it be great? And I’m sure that is happening in small ways here and there but perhaps not enough?
This is going to be epic

I think my favourite cowboy shirt might not fit me any more, given that it’s 25 years old. It’s a bit too late to shed 3 stone now so the open fronted cowboy shirt might just be the next thing in cowboy fashion. #ActuallyAutistic - see you in the Zoom. 👽
One of our favourite things about @DrTempleGrandin is her amazing collection of cowboy shirts. So dig out your best cowboy shirt 🤠👔 and we'll pick a winner 🏅after the midway break.

Anyone interested in late diagnosed autistic women should listen to the Square peg podcast @BBCWomansHour
We know, some of us care and will stay home alone this year, some of us will be giant twats, go driving around the country, create traffic, visiting motorway services that will be busy and crowded, just so they can spread the virus that bit further to their elderly relatives. 🤬
Sorry to come across as a Scrooge, but as an oncologist who is on a #COVID19 ward rota to help out our amazing acute medicine colleagues, I think it crucial to publicly state the Christmas relaxation of public health measures is a very bad policy mistake. It will cost many lives
Disbility is the experience of discrimination because of having a diagnosis, condition, difference etc that society doesn’t always manage to accommodate. Read up on the Social Model of disability, you might enjoy it. The way you are using it is no different to disorder really.
