I had the pleasure of meeting Shelagh. She was a model of compassion & kindness & an incredible support to Ben. This is heartbreaking news.

Woke up to the devastating news that my wonderful friend Shelagh passed away overnight after a valiant battle with cancer I couldn’t have wished for a better friend and the many memories we shared together will stay with me always. Rest in peace. 😢❤️

The world is very upside down right now but we must hold on to one thing “HOPE” our willingness to stand up for one another is our biggest strength against fascism remember we are stronger together. 💙

President Trump and Google can call it the Gulf of America all they want. There are over 8 billion people in the world. Less than 1% voted for Trump. That means the 99% of the world’s population will continue to call the body of water south of the US the Gulf of Mexico.

I just want to take the time to say thank you to everyone for the lovely birthday wishes. Hearing from so many of you made my day and touched my heart. Thank you for sending me so much love. ❤️

Happy Birthday, Ben! Proud of you.

Happy birthday, Ben!

Happiest of birthdays to my lovely friend Ben ☺️🥰

- Today is my Birthday! I have autism and I officially turn 28 years old. I would like to receive lots of birthday wishes from people around the world! please Share/Like! to help make my birthday wish come true! ❤️

As Trump and Musk continue in their attempts to dismantle the US government, I want to express my solidarity with those Americans who are standing up and fighting back. I’m against bullying of any kind, especially that which is weaponized by a government against its people.

I see a Cult what does anyone else see?

Donald Trump is the true enemy from within.

No one is above the law!

Trump and Musk are pure racist that’s the post.

I will always stand and support my American friends and followers. I know none of you voted for this and my heart breaks for you but please know while I can’t be there with you know that I’m always a message or phone call away.

Donald Trump is the worst thing to ever come out of the United States.

I personally think it really shows the kind person you are if you were one of the people who voted for Donald Trump in 2024 knowing his background of being a rapist and convicted felon either that or you were inside a cult and were brainwashed by his lies and rhetoric.

As long as I live, I will never respect anyone who voted for Trump in 2024.

No one voted for Elon Musk he wasn’t even on the ballot.

I hate it when I get receive horrible comments from people saying why do I care so much about US politics the answer is very simple I care deeply about all my friends and also Americas future. Thread 1/5 🧵

Donald Trump is the enemy of the people. I absolutely despise him and Elon Musk they’re a disgrace to the United States of America they’re sociopaths that don’t care about anyone but themselves they’re going the against the constitution no one is above the law.

I wish I could do more to help my friends and followers in America. My heart breaks for you all right now. I admit I’ve shed a few tears because I love and care so deeply about your country. But we all must hold onto one thing hope and don’t forget we are stronger together! 🫶🏻💙

Here’s my video message of support from Scotland to my American friends. 💙

Update on the Mass teen I posted about who was being detained by ICE in Maine. She’s back with her family tonight. Thank you all for sharing this out. Our willingness to stand up for one another is our biggest strength against fascism.

Is it just me? Or does this feel like a long January.

I was sadden to hear the news of the mid-air collision in DC. So many shining lights darkened. So many families missing a loved one. And Donald Trump is trying to blame DEI for the collision, instead of consoling a grieving nation. Trump, and his enablers, are America’s true enemy from within.

Donald Trump is a complete psychopath.

🚨 Family’s lawyer asked us to spread the word. 🚨 A MA teen was arrested for a sibling squabble & is being detained by ICE in Maine. Her family is here legally from Nicaragua. wcvb.com/article/lynn...

Thank you Ben! You should be very proud of the way you carry yourself through life and the kindness you continue to spread!🫡✊🏼

I’m a young man with Autism living in Scotland. I feel very bad for what my American friends are going through right now. I supported VP Harris and Coach Walz in the US election and while they may not have won I will continue to uphold the values they espouse. 🧵

I have been overwhelmed by the response I have had to my recent post regarding my struggles for my mental health I just want to say thank you to everyone who has been there for me every step of the way I love you. ❤️

Hey Ben! We see you and we appreciate you! Thank you for all your efforts🙏🏼.. and remember, this too shall pass.. keep your head up!✊🏼🙏🏼

I've been struggling with my mental health recently. If you see this, please stop and say hello.

Donald Trump is the enemy from within he’s destroying everything America represents and stands for. He’s a sick vile human being he should be removed as president he’s the worst thing to ever come out of the United States of America period.

I just want to take the time to make this video and say a big thank you to everyone for checking in on me throughout #StormEowyn it truly means the world to me I have never encountered a storm as bad as this but having everyones support has helped ❤️

We are currently experiencing a severe weather warning here in Scotland and other parts of the UK and winds are currently at speeds of 75mph I have never experienced anything like this before so my anxiety is kinda bad so far I am doing okay but just wanted to update everyone. #StormEowyn

I went for a lovely walk today around Edinburgh, Scotland in the fresh air I worked out I did 5 miles I couldn’t help but stop at my favourite place called the Vennel View Point it’s definitely one of the best view points to take photos of the castle.

It makes me angry that this occurred today. For anyone to do this, much less a representative of the Presidency is unacceptable! I love America too much to stay quiet. I stand with my American friends who loudly object and stand up for justice in the face of fascism.
