@JoeOttenX @SheffCouncil @CllrJoeOtten I appreciate that but the Longshaw estate is not "nearby" if you have mobility issues. This is a very popular walking start point near a bus stop - it should have functioning accessible toilets. Please make restarting discussions about how to reopen them a priority!

[Sol Loreto-Miller @Solarune]

Hi @SheffCouncil @CllrJoeOtten @JoeOttenX, this is the current state of the accessible public toilet at Fox House in Dore & Totley ward. Blocked & foul smelling. The light does not work, and the gents/ladies are locked shut. How soon can you sort this? #AccessibilityFail

While not specifically about autism, this video by someone with Down's Syndrome is a really good explainer about how harmful infantalising stereotypes about disabled people can be. Maybe get your programming staff to watch it,@TheLight_UK? https://t.co/ynZEiidbKy

This is @TheLight_UK's list of Sheffield autism-friendly screenings - all U-rated animation. Do you know that autistic adults and teens exist? Maybe don't assume that all your "guests with autism" only want to watch Despicable Me or Wallace & Gromit.

@TheLight_UK To be clear, nothing wrong with liking U-rated animation as an adult! I do! But I know many folks who are autistic or would benefit from these screenings who enjoy 12/15/18-rated films. Infantilising disabled people is a widespread problem, please don't contribute to it.

@JoeOttenX @SheffCouncil @CllrJoeOtten Thank you! :)

Solidarity with striking staff at UoS today! @sheffielducu thanks for the stickers and letting me sit with you while I rested! 💚 #SupportTheStrike #SupportUCU

@FirstSouthYorks Hi Asha, my partner was not able to get the service number as understandably they were focusing on staying on their bike! Hopefully the numberplate, road and time is helpful. A police report has been submitted.

[Sol Loreto-Miller @Solarune]

@FirstSouthYorks Langsett Road 1650 today - First bus numberplate beginning YN08 passed my partner on their bike extremely unsafely - 0.5 metre gap, travelling very fast. 1.5 metres is the minimum safe gap for passing cyclists. Please educate your drivers. https://t.co/9hZnr3uZfU

@EastMidRailway The issue isn't about reserving bike spaces, it's that you're combining bike and wheelchair spaces. Wheelchair users shouldn't have to ask a cyclist to move their bike. There needs to be more space for both, and EMR's consistently failing to provide it.

[Sol Loreto-Miller @Solarune]

The only bike space on the 0845 @EastMidRailway SHF-MAN this morning. It's also the only wheelchair space. If my bike didn't fold I'd have to block the gangway or a wheelchair spot. Not the first time. Should be space for more than 4 bikes & 2 wheelchairs on this busy service!

[Sol Loreto-Miller @Solarune]

Paid £16.60 for a Sheffield-Manchester return and can't even get a seat. 2 coaches on the 845 service. This has been a problem on this route at peak time for at least two years. Sort it out @EastMidRailway . Indefensible prices for poor service on a well used commuting route.

@geekinoverload don't @ me like this 👀😂
May all your plumbing be plumbtastic henceforth! *ducks and runs*

[Sol Loreto-Miller @Solarune]

State of the accessible toilet at Leicester station at half eight this evening, plus the flush wasn't working. What's going on @EastMidRailway ? What's the alternative while disabled folks are denied dignity, comfort and safety? Is it fixed now? If not, when will you fix it by?

[Sol Loreto-Miller @Solarune]

@geekinoverload LOVE YOU FRIEND ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖
