I think the Furbobs count. I want them too!

I'd love toys of the cartoon characters like Knight Shade, the witches, Tirac, the bees (I would kill for a Sting toy!), etc. Definitely a missed opportunity there.

DEFFO Furbobs!!!
I think this says enough about how much I want Knightshade!!!

It's Secret Wish, isn't it???

BC that's such a pain!!! And all the hassle of getting the new card on your accounts too xxx At least you caught up on laundry xxx
Artie aww!!!

Laundry, check!!! Just need to hang out the socks. Shower, check!!!
Coffee, check!!! And was a pal's birthday too
Craft group, check!!! Though I was in a bit of a rush so forgot the phone!!! But I wouldn't have had time as a pal had an announcement
Not-so-check: my sleep schedule. It wonked again
Major check: my loot is back in order, so I ordered some fun stuff off eBay & from a pal, as well as yarn for a project for my bd coffee pal. Why are there so many gorgeous yarn colours???

I was waiting for the full specs before I started, then life happened...

PKW is correct, especially for summer-themed Baby Brothers!!!

Look at how adorable these two are in their tropical shirts!!!

Ableist language and actions really bother me because it really puts self-created limits on what people think they can do.  It's like the Down Syndrome awareness PSA :  "if you think I can't ______,, then you don't treat me like I can ______, and then I don't ______." 

I know quite a few people who could probably be quite self-sufficient, contribute to the workforce, and be more independent, but it doesn't fit their family and support providers' narratives and definitions, so they think they can't work  or shouldn't work.  To the best of your ability, I say!  If you need supports, then by all means, use them, but don't opt out of doing things "because you can't (because you believed someone telling you that)".

Technology advances all the time - if there are now mechanized suits (like in anime), you can walk and lift and exercise!  Japan has several cafes that have robots that are operated by paraplegic people at home, using special headsets that connect directly to their brains .  if you need a service animal to help detect if you're going to have a medical episode, that's totally fine.  if you need a communication device/speech board/etc. , that's no different than the millions of other humans who can't get their face out of their phone LOL  It's no reason to opt out of society, hide yourself away, and be lonely.

I was asked once if I could help elderly housebound people to access the internet as I'm quite computer savvy. I talked about the things these people could do, including sell hand-made items online for a little extra cash. The carers who interviewed me were NOT having that, despite pensions being something you can supplement with a small extra income, & I was shut down because I didn't "understand". What I didn't understand was the carers' need to keep their clients fully dependent without adding any contributions. Like, so they can't use their legs & feet, but the can still use their hands!!!
The whole attitude of "these folks can't do anything" is just maddening. Like what if they want to or need to for their sanity???

Dippindot, you took the words out of my mouth!

Also SO many G4 characters. I still can't believe we never got a brushable Babs Seed. Or Fleur de Lis. The princess moulds always seemed popular so I'm sure Fleur would've sold well?? since she just used Luna's model but without wings.

(Also I typed this up earlier but apparently forgot to hit post? oops )

KIRINS!!! And yaks, & more Hippogriffs, & more griffons!!!
