Menopausal knitter, gardener, unpaid carer. Reflexively flee the madness of crowds. Looking for the joy in this place. I follow the best people on Twitter.

Whatever my internal sense of self, I have never been able to identify out of being the subject of sexism & misogyny, or sexual assault and abuse. I want single sex spaces where women are vulnerable.

@mch6 @joshxhowie @J6Truths4USA Include for what purpose? We should not be discriminated against for who we choose to love... how we choose to love, whatever weird fetish a person has is their own private business, PRIVATE

When I am filling in a survey, form or questionnaire, if there is a question which says "gender: male/female/non-binary/other- please specify" I tick "other" & write them an essay about why they are stupid

@GadSaad As you probably can't recall when your last period was, I guess they might need to do a test to rule it out?

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@teaforpterosaur Maybe she wanted to avoid someone sitting next to her? Someone creeping her out on the platform maybe

So no, 15-minute cities are not restrictions of any sort

Restrictions on car use are entirely normal and have been in place for decades in one form or another

A scheme to reduce congestion is NOT the same thing as a 15-min city

The ability to DRIVE wherever you please, whenever you please is not an inalienable human right👍🏼

@DyanaWestall @LBFlyawayhome The blue one for me

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@timothyfra85547 @SVPhillimore Because single sex spaces are for women only, not men who identify as something else

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@saucysueb @LBFlyawayhome Ah... "serve" not "love"

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@saucysueb @LBFlyawayhome In the 80s:
I promise that I will do my best to do my duty to God
To love the Queen, and help other people
And keep the Brownie Guide law

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@LBFlyawayhome That book was so much better than actually being in the Brownies. What a let down that was!

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

Oooh I like this

[aleks bykhun @caffeinum]

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@JoosyJew That style, but with glitter

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@howie_hua I always thought Trillian from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was called Trillion. That's quite a cool name

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@LissaKEvans This was a fun series too, in the same vein as wimpy kid but not American, & very charming

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@LissaKEvans Mr Gum by Andy Stanton. Hilarious & naughty

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@GyllKing @mch6 To a stupid person everything is word salad. Never mind

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@BertDalziel We had loads of fun with this one

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@Lynsay__Watson @stueymaco @frankinsensible Or, you could just stop looking at your phone, so you don't get upset.

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@HelenWebberley Sex. Toilets are sexed. Idiot.

[MariaOnTheBus @threeteapots]

@SWENGDAD @gaptoothdummy @confirmedterfs No, it's probably closer to 100%
