As a wheelchair-user myself, I love it when women in wheelchairs get married.  But is it really THAT big of a deal if they do? Why the abundant recent news coverage over the “paralyzed bachelorette?” Is it a masked pity fest? Read my blog

Gaga’s latest persona, Yuyi the Mermaid, a wheelchair-using siren with a black tail and donned in a black funeral shroud, is amazing if you ask me, but its pissing some people off too. Read this blog

An inaccessible bridal shop in Michigan has gone so far as to ban wheelchairs from their dressing rooms, worried the wheels may damage the dresses. Stephanie Nash, a wheelchair-user, and her cohorts are calling this shop out on their bullshit, and for good reason. Read the rest

There’s nothing like hanging out at the mall minding your own business, when all of a sudden a complete stranger comes up to you and asks – “What happened to you?” How do you answer? Politely, rudely, are you funny, or do you have a speech memorized? Read the rest

It never ceases to amaze me how many angry people who exist in this world who see wheelchairs as nothing but a menace to society. When it comes to anywhere that’s crowded, take dance clubs for example, they really don’t think we belong. Read more

Trends in this world can sometimes be like a bad LSD trip. Fake orange tans, Furbees and Kim Kardashian exemplify my point perfectly. And the growing trend of having a pet with missing limbs is without a doubt the weirdest trend I‘ve yet to live through. Read more

When my friend from high school got kicked off a Delta flight while traveling home from New Orleans, I was appalled. The reason? Her respirator.

Respirator-users have had a hell of a time flying since 9/11. Many uninformed employees think respirators aren’t allowed, ruining many people’s vacations, and in this case, Carrie’s trip back home. Of course respirators are allowed, and as you’ll see in this article discussing Carrie’s ordeal and the respirator stipulations for flight in general – Airline bumps disabled passenger – you’ll see its an effing quagmire.

The solution is FAA-approved stickers, but they have yet to be made. When they are, they will be used on equipment like this. But in the meantime, unacceptable things like this are happening. Delta at first only coughed up $50 ticket vouchers for Carrie and her two nuses, but once they heard the incidient was going to be picked up by local media, they offered full ticket refunds and a $900 voucher.

Sure, Delta deserves a chiding for having ignorant employees. But Delta can’t control the brain cells of every one of their underlings. What they should be chided for however was failing to admit their mistake right away, and not giving the incident proper credence until they knew it’d be in the news. FAIL.

I talked to Carrie last week. She’s thrilled her story is getting the attention it deserves, and hopes it hastens the FAA to resolve this issue promtly. Hopefully the next time she flies, she’ll be able to focus on having a super fabulous trip with her respirator nothing more than a carry-on concern.

This is Aaron Fotheringham kicking ass and taking names. Just look how the crowd mobs him afterwards? People love it when gimps do crazy shit!
