Does anyone know of any handbrakes for wheelchairs, or wheelchairs with handbrakes?

By this I mean "I get brakes for my wheelchair" rather than "someone stood behind me gets brakes for my wheelchair".

(there are *tonnes* of the latter around, but afaict none of the former outside of one company who make brakes for specific wheels in Texas)

I did not realise how much I wanted a dressup-doll game with WH40K's grumpy transhumanist tentacle-clergy til Mechanicus came along

but the game is 100% onboard with indulging that

I am making a new Gamedev Law, so listen well:

If you're going to call a video a "pre-alpha gameplay trailer"

It has to just be the devs running round miming what's going to happen in the game, making all the noises with their mouths

(sock puppets will be considered on a case-by-case basis)

the Secret Autistic Pronoun Set:
your child / your child's / your childself

I think, something a lot of people don't click onto until a lot later in life (and most doctors don't at all)

Is that all the longterm symptoms of childhood trauma on the nervous system don't just diagnostically overlap with ADHD, you can have both at once.

When you do, the combination amplifies the effects. In frequency, breadth and intensity.

This also goes for chronic pain, digestion, mood stuff, anxiety, etc.

Trauma is a massive, longterm injury to your entire Nervous System. That impacts your body in a whole lotta ways that aren't usually what people think of.

UK trans folks, hearing there's been a massive data breach at Charing Cross GIC. Best to check yr inbox/spam/etc if they've got yr email address.

I've had "Dress Sexy for my Funeral" by Smog stuck in my head since before I woke up fsr

I mean, it's a good song, but still.. Weird choice for an earworm, brain

First the Mercator Projection, now Cornwall

Everything I was taught in Geography was a lie

..I do just want a Lupin III game made in the style of Hitman, tbh

Basically the same, but with stealing stuff instead of killing people

Right down to the player-made contracts. "Steal these 3 people's watches, while dressed as a fuzzy mascot, equipped with only a coin and a hairpin"

Give the player style points for completing a theft perfectly, *then* dramatically whipping off their disguise in the middle of a group of guards

"It was actually me all along!!"

Then run like heck to the exit

Hitman 2 really missed a beat making the multiplayer symmetrical

Gimme one player trying to do a murder and the other player being some supersleuth detective trying to track em from the clues

"Hmmm a closet full of unconscious, naked waiter.. Any other detective would overlook this, but not I.."

And then it'd just all go Lupin III real quick

With ridiculous disguise reveals and emergent comedy chases

Omnicidal Attack Sharks are now Shyverns, if you were wondering

I can get behind dinosaurs as naked, bemuscled vaguely-therapod xenomorphs in media so long as it's like, "this is an established fantasy clade".

There needs to be a name that isn't 'dinosaurs' for it, though. One that still lets them like, exist in media alongside dragons and hypno-snakes and hellhounds and zombies

'Dyverns'

There, I fixed dinosaurs in media

Every once in a while I've gotta remind people that

Dogtato exists and is wonderful

and

This episode is queer as heck

Mmm nope heat is bad

Just stick me in a perfect vacuum

Nice and cold

Pretty messed up that all those "Don't do these Activating Things before bed!!" sleep hygiene lists don't have

"Find a Giant House Spider under one of your pillows"

Because that was *definitely* an Activating Bedtime Activity

Ughh I have a laser appointment on my face

and that thing where you sleep badly and your neck seizes up

this will make for a fun combination
