Auch wir sind von einer seltenen Erkrankung betroffen. Unsere Tochter hat RTD, Riboflavin Transporter Mangel.

Hier unsere Geschichte in Kurzfassung #shareyourstory
Aktuell gibt es weniger als
100 Betroffene weltweit. Es ist wichtig, diese und andere seltene Erkrankungen sichtbar zu machen.
Im Juli 2020 habe ich unsere Tochter auf die Welt gebracht. Sie war ein zuckersüßes, gesundes Baby.
Die ersten 7 Monate hat sie sich zeitgerecht entwickelt.

In honour of the news of #RTD returning as showrunner of #DoctorWho, here, for newer followers, is the tale of how I was (briefly) rumoured to be in line as the new Doctor

It was the mid-2000s, and I was part of a BBC Wales TV fly-on-the-wall/reality TV game show about comedians in Cardiff. Don't bother looking for it, it's not worth your time

But because of this, we were put in touch with the local media

I was doing my PhD at the time, so the "A scientist? Doing comedy? Whatever next!" angle was apparently an enticing one

It was also early January. That's why the local paper decided to get my thoughts on something called 'Blue Monday', aka the most depressing day of the year

The @RTDNEWS; a paper that published an ad by an anti-LGBTQ hate group, supported a gov candidate that said immigrants wanted to "rape, kill, control" & now published a cartoon callously making fun of children who have been separated from their parents.

Expect better Richmond.
In a time of national crisis, where the fabric of what it means to be American is being stressed-perhaps beyond repair-this is where the #RTD is. Not funny, nor clever, & not about balance (as the RTD claims). This is about continuing to "other" immigrant children. Pitiful.
The #RTD response to their tasteless cartoon: "Chatter" implies we are just mere bystanders to some random issue that lacks all moral and ethnical consequence, not citizens of conscious watching one of the darkest periods in recent memory unfold in real-time.
