Ashok Swain They’re going to be executed, and if they didn’t return, their families would have been. I don’t know how you sleep at night.

Apparently a complaint has been made about me following my interview on Chelmsford Community Radio (City Talk) when Nita asked me about Karen Whybro - Women’s Safety Charter. For clarity, I was asked directly for my thoughts during the interview. I simply said that if you hold

There should be a strong online norm against speaking ill of children online. Does not matter if they're wearing a funny outfit or a MAGA hat or acting "gay." Being a kid can be tough and using them as fodder for jokes or clicks online, esp if you're adult, is loser behavior.

This is HUGE!!!! Bruiser came over to me while I was sitting!! He never does that! I’ve got my giant welding gloves on! 😂. Look at him rollover! The little milestones with feral strays are the most meaningful.

Irish Unity 🇮🇪🇵🇸 There's more kindness, insight and grace in a single episode of Derry Girls - or one bar from the Cranberries' 'Zombie' - than anything these malicious buffoons could produce in their entire careers.

This post is, in my legal opinion, missing two crucial & fundamental issues in Equality law. The first is causal link (the because of test in direct discrimination & in relation to to for indirect). That is - sex not GR. The second is comparator and that is - a male who is not GR

Well, it's only Monday and we already have a strong contender for *stupidest tweet I'll see all week*.

I am about to attend my High Court costs hearing where I anticipate being successful in my request for costs. I and/or Charles Terf 🦖💜🤍💚🏴‍☠️ will update you afterwards.

Don't forget that Saint Patrick is not the only saint whose feast day is March 17. It is also the feast of Saint Gertrude of Nivelles, the patron saint of cats and the people who love them. (Meme art from an original work by Carolee Clark, King of Mice Studios)

I'm making an experimental tea of layers of aubergine, Mariana sauce, cheese and diced potato roasted in olive oil with garlic and lemon, then cooked like a lasagne. In my fevered imagination it sounds pretty good. We'll see.

As I wrote in Hounded, the timing, extremely public bullying, relentlessness, and utter lack of support from SoA and other bodies made Rachel Rooney's hounding one of the worst I've ever seen in the literary arts. I think some involved forgot why they were even doing it.

5hahem The word “transphobic” is meaningless. It has simply been adopted as a term of abuse by people who think they can suppress views they dislike. You might just as well accuse us of being pumpernickels for the impact it has.

I want any feminist who has been vocally against the war, or those staying silent, to tell me right now, your exact plan for liberating women in Iran from the evils of the Islamic Republic. No vague mention of “hope, unity and revolutionary uprising” or some such, but an actual

What would an 8yo tomboy girl have in common with a 25yo man who likes the thought of himself with breasts? And why would ANYONE think it a smart idea to put them together in the same ‘youth group’?

I have totally hit a wall. Just wrecked. Thank fuck it’s a bank holiday tomorrow!

Jean Hatchet SJSK🎗️ There is no other way, I hope it is seen through to the end.

As you know, last year I fled my hometown after being robbed. I arrived in my new town homeless and penniless. So, I started from scratch. It took months, but I saved and bought a cooker. And I saved some more. And now I have it - my own dining table. Just need a tablecloth 💜

Daniel Sugarman Dave/David/Davide. 🇮🇹🇽🇰🇬🇧 🦖🦕 Does ‘not structurally possible’ mean ‘I’d rather not notice it’?

Re Oscars insisting films reflect society’s diversity to qualify for Best Picture nomination. Does it really matter if art doesn’t reflect diversity but instead just tells a story someone wants to tell? Same goes for books, TV and theatre.

Susanna Rustin I'd very much like the hounders to start being interviewed and asked how they feel, half a decade on. Do they stand by all they said and did? Their targets constantly have to revisit extremely traumatic experiences, while they blithely walk away. It does bother me, that.
