So Aer Lingus broke my friend's wheelchair

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDz1Rboysdz/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could interact with her reel about it ans boost the engagement. So far the airline is giving her a case number and telling her to come back in a week.

As y'all are aware, "just don't move for a week" isn't a great answer, and "maybe it'll actually take more than a month!" is more unacceptable.

So it's time for United Breaks Guitars strategy. If anyone has an Instagram account, can you please go boost engagement on it? It only costs a little bit of time to leave a like or a comment or share it to your story (or all three) and it might really help get someone to take her seriously.

Thank you all so much!

As revealed in the illustrationed version of the Rose novelization, Clive had obtained several photos that featured several incarnations of The Doctor, past, present, and possible future, some not originally from our screens.

And as revealed in The Gold Archive book, it was possibly due to this knowledge and several others, that he quickly became a person of interest to U.N.I.T. until he died, and his collected information mysteriously lost forever.

ayo this pretty cool

[id: active style manual wheelchair with frame made of rectangle wood planks screwed together. end id]

as we know active type wheelchair very expensive, & repair need buy from specific medical manufacturer n take very long time. someone (who wheelchair user themself of near 40 years) made open source active manual wheelchair where most (if not all?) material from commercial easy get materials! wood, plastic, pvc pipe, & those commercial aluminum square pipe things. n they put guide made them yourself in link for anyone want try make

this video from their instagram show their wood frame wheelchair actually pretty durable, include clip from everyday use & even drop wheelchair all over place (basically imagine what airline do to them…) - n wheelchair stay in tact! n even if some part break - it easy change because wood planks all screwed together so you just buy wood plank & unscrew & rescrew.

not great for people w advanced seating positioning needs probably (think if only problem is easy butt pressure sore, maybe can still use this + supportive cushion but think beyond that it get hard). but if like you don’t need those things then maybe fun project?

have not use for self so can’t actually talk about experience but it look pretty cool

edit: reblog this version instead

Free Manual Wheelchair Reference Models

ID: A banner with grey 3D models of 5 kinds of manual wheelchairs in a line in front of the disability pride flag and text that reads "Manual Wheelchair References" /End ID

For disability pride month, I decided to release a pack of 3D manual wheelchair models.

The pack includes 5 wheelchairs:

2 Active urban-style chairs (one of which includes a smart drive)

1 off-road active chair

1 children's wheelchair

and 1 standard "hospital" wheelchair).

All the wheelchairs are based off either wheelchairs I or friends of mine have used

Downloadable here!

or on the Clip Studio Paint Asset Store (ID 2097442) (there's been an issue with the CSP version, but the models in the download folder can be imported into clip studio paint until I can fix it)

More info about the download contents below:

The first download link includes the original .Blend file with all 5 chairs, as well as individual .obj or .fbx files the chairs (All but 1 have an .obj file, as they're only meshes. The chair with the smart drive is rigged, which is why it has an .Fbx file instead so it will retain that information) as well as a "read me" file that explains in more depth what kind of disability/character/lifestyle each chair is made for (These are just what I had in mind when I designed them, they are usable by other characters who don't fit the suggestions for the most part!) I wanted to include the Read Me contents in the CSP Asset Store listing, but CS said it was too long lol.

Also, as the title says, these files are free to use! While it's not mandatory, I would appreciate credit if you use them (or even just a tag so I can see the cool art you make with them!!)

I actually made these ages ago, the original plan was to use them in a series of posts then release the pack, but I never got around to making the series and so they've just been sitting here. I took a day off from art fight attacks to clean them all up and get them ready to post. If you experience any issues, let me know and I'll try to fix it up.

I had a couple more that were supposed to be in the pack including a sports (basketball/Tennis) wheelchair and some different styles of wheelchair, but I think the files corrupted so once I fix (or remake) them, I'll probably make a second pack.

If you have any issues, please let me know!

Me and who??

[fallenstarcat]

sure there’s a ramp, but is it steep? is there a curb at the top? is the ground uneven? do i need a key for the elevator? are the aisles and doorways wide enough? do i have room to turn? is there furniture and clutter in my way? is the carpet difficult to wheel on? can i open the doors myself?

accessibility to wheelchairs is more than just a ramp.

I'm not sure people realise just how important this second of television is.

Showing a person in a wheelchair crossing her legs. Using her legs.

After what rtd said about davros and rose in the unleashed episodes, this was 100 percent done on purpose.

When I go out in a wheelchair I am terrified to make it noticeable that I can use my legs. Because ... well we all know why and I'm not really articulate enough to go into everything.

But this. This right here. I doubt anyone who uses a wheelchair didn't have a doubletake. A glimmer. A KNOWING about just how important this tiny, insignificant action was.

And I'm fucking here for it
