I used to count myself a trans ally. I'm left leaning politically. Very (very !) pro-gay rights. Feminist obviously.
Until it started being all "trans women are women!" everywhere. 1/
@KKeirsbilc9584@jk_rowling It's not up to you whether boys are allowed to stick their fingers up girls' vaginas, Kathleen. It is against the law.
If you want to change the law, I would suggest contacting your elected representative.
They might send the police to search your hard drive in response, tho
@Ssaniya_ Yes, people die in wars. This is not new information.
People who don't want to die in wars shouldn't start them.
And the UK is not at war this. Didn't go raping and killing in Northern Francethis time, although there is precedent for this.
@zarahsultana If Palestinians don’t want to die in wars, they shouldn’t start them. Experts universally agree that starting a war almost always leads to death and destruction. This can be avoided by not slaughtering, raping, burning alive and kidnapping one’s neighbors. Hope this helps.
@lymanstoneky Zero issues with hyphenated here
Everyone immediately gets they're our kids (school, passport control etc) even without the other parent there
They'll probably drop one surname eventually, maybe when they marry or have kids, but that will be their decision, not ours.
@singingbirth My antenatal group all sleep trained. I just couldn't do it, physically couldn't stand the crying.
Fast forward a few years? They all have night terrors, refuse bedtime, get overtired.
Mine otoh tell me when they're tired and ask to go to bed. No terrors whatsoever.
@EveKeneinan@MatthewGreenf11 Another useful measure would be to compare murder rates of sex workers to non sex workers. The former are more at risk regardless of sex and trans identity.
@xevekiah My husband took our daughter to the men's until she became old enough to go alone. He carried her to the stall holding her strategically so she couldn't see anything inappropriate.
I take our son to the ladies as he's still too young to go alone.
@mog_russEN He also shits from the same toilet seat every day. Has it travelling alongside him and some poor minion has to go attach it to whatever toilet has been designated for his use.
Means that he's a bit neurospicy with massive means?
@MrPitbull07 Make sure there's a bin in the loo. When I was about 14 I was at a relative's house, no bin so I just wrapped it up and put it in my pocket, of course it slipped out in front of everyone and a (male) relative pointed it out. I could've died of embarrassment
@iam_preethi I'm sorry but no, this varies widely depending on height, muscle mass and level of physical activity
I'm short, work at a desk and don't have time to exercise properly - I most definitely should not be eating 2000 calories a day. 1500 feels more adequate.
@floistinyflower Looks like not enough protein/healthy fats
Can you increase calorie count to include one of chicken breast/salmon/eggs/sardines(canned is fine) by doing more intense exercice than walking? Could be pilates/zumba (free videos on youtube)
@alaafromgaza92 God forbid you learn other perspectives or encourage others to learn more about yours.
Much better to exclude learners based on their ethnicity. Now that's cool and progressive - just look at you, bragging about how racist you are, in public! With no shame whatsoever!
@peterstopcrime@JackieKpss Don't know where you are but carrot cars in the uk come with the baby seat, all drivers are parents and in my experience all very tolerant of children being noisy
The next time some celebrity like Jennifer Lawrence or some almost-famous person like Amal Clooney publicly mouths off about Gaza or cries crocodile tears about the "plight of the Palestinians," the first and only response from media or any normal person should be: Did you publicly support the Iranian Revolution in 2026? Anything other than "yes and here's the receipts" should result in immediate termination of the interview and all other communication.
