“There is this terrible misconception that disabled people just take, but actually by taking from us, you prevent us from being able to give – we want to be able to participate in life equally the same as anyone else, and that includes going to work.” Disability campaigner Tanni Gray-Thompson

Maslow's Hierarchy of Knees

submitted 5 days ago • 6 comments

In #DoctorWho news, it has come to my attention that the Daleks are planning to invade Earth again, this time via Madrid. They are currently hiding in plain sight in public places, and the locals haven’t yet noticed the threat, despite the paper-thin diguises. I blame Russell T. Davies.

13 Feb is World Radio Day, and the BBC is planning to cut drama budgets yet further, so I am starting a thread of drawings inspired by BBC radio dramas. (Leaving out worstjourney.com for now as that's its own story.) Hit social media with #SADatTheBBC to get on the radar tomorrow.

BTW if you want to get this reference, too, it is never a bad time to listen to Magnitsky the Musical.* In fact right now might be the best time of them all. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... *except, maybe, if you're in Moscow
