Today I was in Maldon & overheard a woman planning to get firewood home.

She said: Where are the men when you need them?

I said: You don't need men when you've got a lesbian.

Then I honest to god flexed my arm muscles for her.

And you bet I loaded the car easily. #lesbian

@bonnieallan72 What does he say about the murder of so many women in Australia?

This is the best prevention we have. And the part he should be mad about is that it doesn’t always have the fidelity it needs in terms of content delivery.

@bonnieallan72 What did people do before women weren’t able to practice medicine. LOL

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@jdcarX I’d play the shit out of that. Quests at theme parks would be so fun. Getting eaten by great whites at the beach.

@jxsmin_twts @melisuerart The whole species kinda looks like this. And my FemShep fell so hard for Liara.

@aaronsmith Terrifying given the strong links between experiences of violence and being part of the LGBTIQA+ community. Especially as kids - noting that there are survey estimates that up to a third of young people describe themselves as ‘not straight’. What happens to these kids?

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@lastchalice I really liked it. I also wanted the second in the title where I could redeem myself with those Quarians. <3 It's a a very sad day for all who loved ME.

@catvalente @BigShow916 But also. It reflected the diversity of a world that some of us never get to see, so it was amazing to have our own lives reflected in Art in a safe place/way. I played as Paragon Lesbian Shepard. It will be my favourite thing forever. ❤️

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

Representation for people is still important/life changing for people to see themselves reflected in Art.

Here's to the Hot Gay Shepards who were buff as hell, to the Lesbian Paragon Shepard who got the girl & here's to the trans kids who played a future version of themself.

As we end the dream of more @masseffect games, it's beyond fucken sad that the world is such a binfire that people are out here debating 'wokeness' as the thing that ended it all - as if diverse characters in these games aren't also out here in the real world. #EA #MassEffect

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@ScamBFraud @DanFriedman81 Not really. It correlates to the trend of anywhere up to 30 % of younger people describing themselves as 'not straight' reflecting chances in representation/rights. Makes sense that they flock to games - lots of amazing representation and a universe they can feel safe in.

@jdcarX Sooooo... no ME 5. I just can't even with EA.

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@sonicdog43 @jdcarX @strangerous10 There's a bunch of Greens members who are now in gender critical circles and burning things down. They're literally dining on russian propaganda and christo-fascist dinsinformation. Hook line and sinker. Drew Hutton is a great example.

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@AlexSorosJones @jdcarX Yep. There's a definite sort of man that goes down these rabbit holes. All consipracy theories and the overlap has never been weirder.

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@blondspacecat @AVintenAuthor Hahahaha. Yeah. Jokes about rape are always sooooo funny. Like. Lighten up people. Hahhahaha. Yeah.

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@StuddertNatalie This was my take too. Male violence. Radicalised and entitled.

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@jdcarX … because he has targeted a woman. Not a local male MP or the male councillors.

There’s a very specific rage of being owed. When I ran the BCA it was left wing old white male greenies who were beyond obnoxious/demanding. Outsourcing labour.

RW men stuck with fat/whore. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@jdcarX … speak on the masculinity issues. Really conservative Christian men are out there perpetrating & it’s well documented. Non religious right wing & left wing men perpetrate.

I think this will be really interesting to unpick what underpins ongoing violence…

[Ange Elson @AC_E]

@jdcarX Just a reminder that old mate was abusive to his wife. Not sure we should be taking advice from someone like him on attacking women.
