omg can I please catch a break? Not sure if the "coming down with something" feeling I have is just period related but if it isn't and on top of immense joint pain, and a return to period pain, I am now also coming down with a cold or something, I am going to write a strongly worded letter to the Universe!

You won&#39;t see my dogs at polling stations today because I voted by post last week! But I did vote 🗳️ Vote for the people who they&#39;re trying to stop voting. Vote for the trans folks who will suffer if you don&#39;t. Vote for a more humane politics. #UKPol #Senedd2026 #LocalElections

It&#39;s #FediForumFriday- your reminder to check in with projects you&#39;re excited about, ask for or offer help, or just chat with the folks you met and refresh the joy and motivation you felt at #FediForum.

ah, I just muted substack dot com - why did I not think to do that before?!

People of the Fediverse, I have a genuine question for you: How do you learn to enjoy not doing things? Like just sitting around watching TV or something? How do you learn to find fun and joy in that?

I have a #FediForumFriday follow up question about the demo that EU-Haul demo (I can't remember who did it, sorry!) and Bsky: Can I use my bridged Bsky account (as in the one @anewsocial@mastodon.social creates when you bridge from Mastodon) and move that to an EU based Bsky server, and the bridge still work? If no, is that in the works? #FediForum

Hey, electric #Wheelchair users, I'm planning to paint mine pink. Is there anything I should know? I've got car paint, a base layer, the colour, and a lacquer to go on top. I'm just planning to do the frame. Have I missed something obvious I should be considering?

I am so unwell I have napped. Unheard of apart from when I had glandular fever as a teen and flu in my early 20s. I can usually barely sleep at night in optimum conditions, let alone nap. Tested negative for COVID yesterday. Will test again this evening cos I have The Fear. But I think it&#39;s likely just a cold and my fucked body can&#39;t fight it.

Very grateful that @IvysRequiem is sorting some admin for me today, including fixing my error in making the delay repay claim for the absolute trashfire that was our trip to Birmingham the other weekend, and contacting my wheelchair seller to see if they will do anything about the broken wheel housing thanks to Cardiff&#39;s pavement.

Well this afternoon was utterly fucking terrifying. I was feeling real sketchy before my UC appt. Started being real dizzy and faint during it, lady doing it said she could see me going paler. Getting out of the taxi at home my legs just stopped working and I ended up laying on the front room floor twitching and unable to move for 30+ minutes. If I&#39;d been on my own I dread to think how differently it would have gone.

RE: https://toot.wales/@alexisbushnell/116443842047664326 People with #PoTS - is this standard for that? It was actually 2 hours I was on the floor. And then yesterday it happened again but 2 hours laying in bed with shortness of breath, body twitching, out of it. #ChronicIllness

Does anyone know of any kinky ASL / BSL interpreters who would be willing to sign at events? If you&#39;re happy to go on a list that I can pass round to kink event organisers in the UK and US, let me know because we are in desperate need of folks! #Deaf #SignLanguage #Accessibility

Fun fact Toot Wales folks - you can support this server for £1 per month. That is less than the cost of mainstream media premium options AND you don&#39;t get ads anyway! What you do get is the warm fuzzy feeling of helping your local server keep going and providing a wonderful space for you and others to hang out away from data brokers, hate speech and other nonsense. You can donate monthly or make a one time donation here: https://opencollective.com/twt-cymru .

This is gonna sound judgemental but it&#39;s coming from an interested place not a judgemental place. It is so fascinating and confusing to me how only 5% of Americans are eating enough fibre. I&#39;m out here getting between 100% and 200% of my daily fibre intake everyday without even trying. Yay for loving veggies and fruit. I can&#39;t imagine not eating tonnes of those things.

OMFG - the morality section of my uni course is fucking soul destroying. Only 10-15% of people over 20 consider true justice rather than just what they&#39;re told to do by law/social rules. Around 5% of people are considered to be ‘consistently’ at Stage 5 reasoning (prioritising human rights). There is a whole 6th stage, caring about everyone involved and wanting everyone not to suffer, which is so rare people don&#39;t even agree on if it exists.... Jesus fucking christ.

If I&#39;ve slid into your mentions about the #LittleThings, here&#39;s why! It&#39;s because @teamtoot are launching an app and part of our celebration is celebrating the little things our community does!

You can also fill out your bio with a little about yourself so when people see it they know if they want to hit that follow button. Also, follow liberally and use the Twt feed for the most community focused experience!
