I am very often asked, "Jessica, how can you be so glamorous when you're disabled?"

Have you ever considered maybe I'm glamorous *because* I'm disabled?

But let's begin with the announcement that half of you are here for!

And my first full line of merch has been released.

The line features varieties on this beautiful coat of arms made by my friend Ashe,

who is more commonly known as Marsupial Pudding; I shall put the link to her website down in the description.

It includes t-shirts; a hoodie; this sweater;

pillow; mug; socks; [pleased noise] tote bag - all of the goodies.

They're a variety of price points, so some items are more expensive; some are less expensive,

and I tried really hard to work out conversion rates.

Apparel comes in the largest range of sizes I could make,

which is five X's, apparently, although I should point out that this sweater is actually apparently a Small -

I've tucked it into my skirt so you can't tell, but some things run big.

(I'm looking into how I can get sizes over that, as well.)

Everything ships worldwide, and you can find all items on the merch shelf

If, however, you live in an area where your browser or something does not support this,

I will also put the link to the shop directly into the description down below.

Thank you so much to members of the Kellgren-Fozard Club, who gave me some really good feedback

and helped me to shape the whole collection.

I shall be asking you some more merch-related questions throughout the year,

as I have a plan to release a new item or design [excitedly] every single month!

Some will be spoonie-related; some will be gay;

And please, please, please, please, please let me know on Twitter and Instagram when your things arrive.

Send me photos, because I would love to see those.

On with today's video, though: how to be glamorously disabled.

When I first became ill as a teenager, I realised that accessibility features are...

and my beautiful house is deeply offended!

Over the years, I have developed a variety of ways to make disability aids into beautiful things!

But Diet Coke doesn't, you know, make you slim or whatever,

but it *does* stop your nausea *and* stop you from fainting!

Number nine: no need for ugly, plastic handrails -

Genuinely, it's the only safe way I can go up and down stairs.

Massive skirts and petticoats are really helpful in breaking your fall! [Exclamation]

If you don't have great fine motor skills,

Also super helpful if you cannot reach your back.

Number six: rolling your hair is physiotherapy that makes you look good.

Number five: if your skin is numb, don't risk accidents!

Or else you will burn the sensitive part here a lot.

And it might not hurt when you get down to the first level, but it really does when you get to the third.

This has nothing to do with being glamorous;

it's just a health and safety announcement in the middle of the video.

Number four: if you have back pain, you may have considered wearing some kind of back brace

because compression can really help with the pain,

[small gasp] a rather wide and rather tight elasticated belt?

for some of us with nerve conditions, underwear can be particularly painful.

Especially, you know, if you've got very sensitive skin;

And, if you happen to have scoliosis, like me,

- oh, that underwear cuts in...to your bones!

Now, I have found two things that I think are really, really great.

at the start of last year, I discovered...non-underwired foam bras.

But there's no dicky wiring that eventually comes out and pokes you in the boob.

And--and they have these nice little bits.

Anyway, this one I found in a market in Malaysia.

But I'm going to put some links to others I have found.

in America? No, knickers - whatever you think knickers are)
