@ASOS I've had a second package stolen from my doorstep yesterday, please can someone contact me?

NB.
I have so many unfinished thoughts about my gender and how I express it.
Here is what I know.
If you love me, it isn't because of my gender.
If you support me, it shouldn't be conditional on my… instagram.com/p/CCo5LJ_H-xg/…

My skin and I flow in and out of discomfort just as its ripples lap over and between themselves. Shapes and shadows provide an ever changing landscape, challenge even the anchored parts of me.

Cogs in a wheel.
So many of you messaged me yesterday suggesting I made formal complaints about the things I experienced during my stay. I wanted to address it specifically.

In the best place.
Another one of those throw away comments that people pull out of their ass when they've out of their comfort zones and don't want to engage in the trauma of Disabled people.
People who think that… instagram.com/p/CBybNOQFTF0/… – at Bristol, England

You okay hun?
I looked at my self in the mirror tonight and I thought, I really don’t feel well.
That started a storm of thoughts in my head. Do I ever feel well? What does well feel like? What is it I’m feeling… instagram.com/p/CBbmcOcnxc2/…

Today I broke the rules. But only after my spirit broke.
I last left the house March 10th. 12 weeks ago to the day. I remember it because I was due to fly to Florida two days later and as I stopped at Lidl for a… instagram.com/p/CAqqXPpHb22/… – at Bristol, England

Lockdown Birthdays.
I've been trying to think this last week just how many of my birthdays have been spent in some kind of lockdown. It's interesting to watch people currently, how they have reacted to the lockdown… instagram.com/p/CAJUOoInZoL/… – at Bristol, England

What if the pursuit of beauty was ugly? What if buying into societies standards, knowing that they suppress so many marginalised bodies was the height of disgusting?
What if being an ally meant not being pretty,… instagram.com/p/B_3Hc2IlVpa/… – at Bristol, England

I'm fairly sure my mum felt shame and disgust about her body before she even really knew what her body was or why you might have such strong feelings about it. She, before me, was brought up in a house of silent… instagram.com/p/B_snTYAHweT/…
Leaning in.
When lockdown started, a month ago, I could have given you a firm list of MY PEOPLE. Those who I would have called on when the shit hit the fan. People who were my absolute ride of die in times of… instagram.com/p/B_nmTt9FPkm/… – at Bristol, England

@sainsburys We'll, it's gone midnight so I'm assuming they're not coming. Gone without drugs and nutrition so my carer could sleep and I could deal with shopping. I know you're doing your best but you're only delivery to the MOST VULNERABLE & this just isn't okay!

@sainsburys My delivery is now an hour late, I don't really know what I'm meant to do? My carer needs to go to bed but there are frozen foods that will need to be put away and I won't be able to do it without support. Currently hoping someone might answer the phone!?
Replying to @sainsburys
@sainsburys Hey! Just have my substitution email & I really don't want most of it! I've called the helpline MANY TIMES but always get hung up on, is there any way I can stop them from coming - or at the very least get a refund on them? Thanks!
This isn't a time for fixing. It's not a time for healing or mending or making better. This is a time for knowing your limits and setting your bounderies.
This isn't a time for deep conversations about your trauma… instagram.com/p/B_arkfknHwV/… – at Bristol, England
