I was mid stride when the lock that holds the prosthetic to my leg failed. My prosthetic came off and I then fell landing on my amputated leg, infront of a school i was about to present to. The impact to the cement was not the impact I had hoped to leave students with. – at Brisbane, Queensland

Brisbane airport. I explain my luggage is 24kg due to the 2 prosthetic legs I have packed Normally this all I need to say and the extra weight is excused. Tonight flying to Adelaide, the staff had me open my bag to prove it. Who knew fake legs were such a popular excuse! 🦿🤦🏽‍♀️ – at Brisbane, Queensland

If you are somewhere and there are no people with a disability, it's not because we don't exist, it's because where you are isn't accessible #wisc22 – at Melbourne, Victoria

No faster way for me to question a medical professional than have them ask if I can walk to the bed. I've just had a knee reconstruction and ankle surgery on one leg, and don't even have a second. Answers no. #thinkbeforeyouask – at Brisbane, Queensland

Daniel Radcliffe's performance of 'she'll be coming round the mountian' in S3 of Miracle Workers had to be the greatest thing I've ever watched. What a talent – at Brisbane, Queensland

when @Survivor_AU was in Fiji, they named the merge tribe after a Fijian word. Why not name the tribe a name connected with the Indigenous Owners of the land they play on now? – at Brisbane, Queensland
