Listens. Thinks. Writes. Tries to get people to do the same. Which can be hard going on twitter.

Sx,safeguarding, porn, age appropriate teaching/words etc. A 🧵. When my children first used a computer for school aged 7ish, before that I’d only used it for tv I’d chosen for them. To prepare them I talked about ‘scary/dodgy’ images and that’s why we have it in a family room 1/

[Chris Palmer, MD @ChrisPalmerMD]

One of the most frustrating things about the mental health field is how often we confuse labels with causes.

"He has hallucinations because he’s schizophrenic."

No — he’s diagnosed with schizophrenia because he has hallucinations of unknown etiology.

If we actually knew the cause, it would have a different name: an autoimmune disorder, a vitamin deficiency, a viral infection — something treatable.

The problem is, once we use labels like "schizophrenia," we often stop looking for causes. We stop searching for solutions and just accept that this person will be ill for life. And that robs people of their chance for recovery.

At some point, psychiatry must rejoin the rest of medicine — and work harder to figure out why symptoms are happening.

Biology, psychology, environment — all can play a role.

It's time for a new approach.

@theraggedwood @anne_joseypye @SVPhillimore I think it’s sarcasm

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@bphillipsonMP @Keir_Starmer if you want to scrape together your remaining credibility, own up and say you got it wrong. You just look like lying, untrustworthy buffoons right now.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Labour had a chance to admit they got it wrong. Instead, Keir Starmer told Bridget Phillipson to gaslight the Commons with a shameless rewrite of history — pretending Labour had always been on the side of women. Nobody bought it.

They claimed the govt accepts the Supreme Court ruling — yet Labour, SNP, and Lib Dem MPs queued up to attack it. One even called for puberty blockers to be brought back for children.

They refused to criticise their unions who vow to ignore the law.
Refused to apologise to Rosie Duffield.
Refused to recognise the bravery of JK Rowling or Sharron Davies.

I’ve always known what a woman is. I didn't need a Supreme Court ruling to say so. And under my leadership, the Conservative Party will hold this government to account 👇

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@OldRoberts953 @NadiaWhittomeMP It’s all of it. Magnified. It’s an indictment on our political system that someone so short on thinking skills can be standing there speaking such rot.

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@Bumbleb58352158 @StoatlyL Line draw through the whole lot?

“And as we watch the creature come out from behind the undergrowth, we hear the true voice emitted clearly for the female to recognise that yes, indeed, that is a bloke just as she always knew.” (Said in best David Attenborough hushed tones.)

[Sall Grover @salltweets]

In case there is anyone left to realize it is all just an act…

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@DreyfusJames Wonder if he thinks that’s true but only for 99% as some women ‘have a penis’ as he used to say. Though that was before the SCourt reminded him that water was wet…

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@Serena_Partrick @BabyCowPatriot “The Supreme Court has given a legal definition, which we acknowledge, but people have feelings and these feelings are valid and need to be recognised.” (So, can males call themselves women Sir Kier?) “well, as I said, legally is different to the real experiences people have.”

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@Jonnywsbell “That’s a great point sir.” Hahaha.

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@Headteacherchat anyone got anything useful to say about this that isn’t “well they hear this stuff so let’s teach them to do it safely” which is the usual rubbish coming out of the “profession” of late about issues around porn/queer theory etc..

[Emma-Jane Taylor (E-J) 🇬🇧 @ejtayloruk]

OMG 😦 funded by Bridgend county borough council in south Wales 🤦🏽‍♀️

So much to say - not sure where to start. What’s going on?

Fury over school advice that tells 14-yr old boys how to 'safely’ choke girlfriends during sex!

@LeishaCamden @DogLoverOfPI @Glinner Everything about Sophie screams angry bloke. He could have had every kind of surgery going, but he’s still male and always will be. Lopping bits off/sticking bits on doesn’t change the facts.

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@DogLoverOfPI @Glinner Heard his voice? He’s not had any surgery. And even if he had, he’s still a bloke.

To those who argue that vaginoplasty somehow makes a trans-identified man more valid as a woman or that phalloplasty makes a trans-identified woman more valid as a man 👇🏻

“Hate will never win” says person posting a photo that has a sign held by someone that is a death threat to anyone who disagrees with the beliefs of these protesters.Gaslighting? Irony?Stupidity? All the commentators saying “both sides/culture wars”: you’re wrong. Read the sign.

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@satiricole Well, that’s good. They don’t want the GRC anymore according to this bloke and his call and response: so let’s give them what they want. They can’t say we didn’t listen to trans people. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@Gaynotqueer1 The @LibDems 8 rainbow winged flying worm on those made-by-a-paedo-flag bedecked posters. What rights don’t trans people have? Maybe someone could explain from the Lib Dems. The right to gather to protest? To deface a statue? They did both today. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@Jonnywsbell If all the kids are kicked out of school, how come there are so many alohabetti-spaghetti-rainbow-clubs? That individual is being a little slippy with the truth methinks.

[EmilyE @7colourrainbow1]

@steele_mik28277 @Jonnywsbell Sadly, I don’t think enough of them would be.

[Kevin Lister @KevsTribulation]

The DBS unlawfully redacted a document in the bundle that was sent to them from someone who they describe I can identify and who knows me.

It is possible it is from a member of New College Swindon's management team seeking some leniency in future legal actions.

I have already expressed my intent to sue the managers personally for making untrue claims or supporting untrue claims against me if my appeal to the Upper Tribunal is successful, so everything from their pensions to their pocket money is at risk.

If I am successful in suing the managers, I will use some of this to support Student A who is the person most damaged in this terrible misuse of public office to cause child abuse.
