About

amandaw is a proud woman with a disability who doesn't have nearly enough time to deal with all this shit. Her space is dedicated to the examination of feminism, politics, the social model of disability, and the antics of her beloved cats. Things won't always make the most sense, so hang in there with me—but at least we'll have some pretty pictures to make up for it, ya?
