#your help needed

[enbycrip]

UK folks, and, tbh, disabled folks from abroad, every disabled person who depends on PIP to live desperately needs your urgent input on the Tory Green Paper proposing to change PIP from a regular payment into vouchers, catalogues and other things that give disabled people less and less freedom and control over our lives

Liz Kendall, the new Labour Work and Pensions Secretary, has a long track record of incredibly disableist behaviour. She *needs* a clear signal that the public support the right of disabled people to live our own lives and make our own choices about how we live without continually having to fight an expensive bureaucracy with no clue what disability is actually like, nor how expensive it is to live as a disabled person.

A Little Help...

So, as you can see, I am experiencing extreme writer's block. So, I have put my writing on hold for a minute to get some inspiration...

And, back to gaming, I go... And I would love it if people could give me suggestions about which game(s) I should get to get my creative juices flowing...

I'm pretty picky about games; I only like a weird little sub-set of categories. But I want suggestions for anything dark, weird, scary, bizarre, etc. I like FPS, RPG, Story Rich, Horror, Psychological Horror, Strategy, Atmospheric, etc.

I am not a fan of anything that has a 1st Gen Nintendo aesthetic; that was what every game looked like when I was young, and those are the ones I got sick of. Annnnnd, lastly, I'm not a huge fan of the Zombiepidemic. It got tired for me a few years ago.

If anyone can think of any that I might like, ALL suggestions are welcome!

Questions on a postcard please.

Hello Tumblr!

I thought I'd give a little introduction to this blog, starting with some history. Our yearbook had a section where each person was given a 'most likely' to. Mine, courtesy of one of my best friends, was 'most likely to write a sassy agony aunt column'. I guess I have a bit of a reputation for sass. How could I ignore this battle cry? The answer is, I couldn't.

We all know that agony aunt columns are nothing without letters, so that's where all you guys come in. Please send me your questions/problems/comments/general musings about life, no matter how weird and wonderful. I will try and answer them.

For all the problems a cup of tea can't solve.

Love, SAA.

Discuss practical implications for the fact. (Is there a more practical reason for the fact?) (2 People) 6. Identify 3 potential flaws/problems with the study. (2 people needed). 7. Cite the article you used to find the facts. (Everyone will be submitting sources they used if they used one).

Desperately seeking a meeting spot in Peru...

With the crazed week I've had and the organised chaos of the weekend to come (for everyone who is asking what I'm going as for Halloween, the answer is a stressed organiser of a massive film challenge!), I have frantically done what I could via the Twittersphere and social media this week, but I admit it has been a bit of a last minute rush job with everything else going on.

There were some promising leads, but I have come up emptyhanded...so far.  I've got my Lonely Planet Peru book and plan on reviewing @turnoffrase's leads after this weekend and also chasing up some other Twitter users in Peru, so your help is still needed! 

With the transportation research that I had done before the original date (I like to be prepared when I travel), I know that, depending on Chi-chi's itinerary, we'll either have to meet at Cusco Airport or at Aguas Calientes (of course, ideally, at Machu Picchu itself), so there are a number of options to plan for.  Ideally, I'd like to get a good meeting place (and, particularly, if it's the 4:40 am flight from Lima to Cusco), and a good place to get a coffee, in both Cusco and Aguas Calientes, so that when we get closer to itineraries, we can then choose which city to meet at.  But yes, a strong coffee would be needed at that time of the morning.  Actually, I'm hearing more and more about Peruvian coffee, so I am looking forward to trying it when I'm there.

Can you send any hints, tips and suggestions my way for a good meeting place (coffee optional, but appreciated!) in either Cusco---probably around 6 am--or at Aguas Calientes around 11:00 am?  Please send via twitter @alissajuvan and I will be most grateful.
