- having really dodgy bones
- I am not a snowflake. I am not a sweet, infantilising symbol of fragility and life. I am a strong, fierce, flawed adult woman. I plan to remain that way, in life and in death.
- In the '90s there was 'differently abled' or 'handy capable' - things that are just stupid. 'Handy capable' is a f*cking doozy - I've been called that, seriously. I identify very proudly as a disabled woman. I identify with the crip community. I didn't invent the word 'crip'. It's a political ideology I came to in my late teens and early 20s.
