Titian Topsy

I'm 53, married (to the love of my life) for twenty one years. I have titian hair (rapidly turning white), I'm a lefty in hand and politics, and I have hEDS.

@dootdootootdoot @rnrgh You have good reason to vent about being taken for granted. I wish you could leave them to it this year. Go off and enjoy the festive season without the ungrateful family. They need a proper jolt to see they're killing the golden goose.

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@rnrgh @dootdootootdoot Why not vent about family taking us for granted on X? There's plenty of people venting about politics and people they have no relation to.

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

I just can't take anymore. I'm in so much pain, but people who should care don't. Or don't believe me (NHS). I've almost fallen so many times this week because I get clumsier with increased pain, and I'm not steady on my feet to start with.

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@tuvya68 @PostsOfCats Yep. Yep, they do.

@sharrond62 Transmen? If female toilets/changing rms are exclusive for genetic women/girls, that would include transmen. Doesn't that confuse the issue? A transwoman who passes is less likely to upset (cause fear) than a transman who passes for male. Unless they're behaving inappropriately

NEW: The great Trump-Musk crackdown is coming. And it will hit hard & fast. Journalists will be first. But everyone else is next.

I urge you to read my 20 lessons in How to Survive the Broligarchy, inspired by & featuring the great @TimothyDSnyder.

The horrifying reality of being a woman, perfectly summarised by @_CaitlinORyan

If you give even the slightest shit about women, watch it all. This is what it’s like.

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@SueHuff00599799 @Dr__Meenakshi There are good medical reasons for some women to request a c section.

@archer_rs Why are you using a photograph of the model Gary Greenwood as your profile photo?

@positiv07652695 @rpaton11 I just checked out the BBC Politics East (29/09/2024) @rPaton11 is quite rightly upset about. Does Mark Francois usually stutter? Because he seemed to have difficulty getting his words out during that part of the programme. Could it be a sign of stress?

@DavidSceatta @ChrisCleas @JustStop_Oil Get a sexual thrill out of the thought of two young women having cavity searches do you?

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@cloud22043 @ChrisCleas @JustStop_Oil It wasn't destroyed. However, our climate is definitely being destroyed.

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@beefalofarmer @ChrisCleas @JustStop_Oil I think you'll find they released rather a lot of true scum... the violent sort you wouldn't want to meet on a bright sunny day with plenty of witnesses, let alone a dark night, to make room for these horrifically violent cold soup throwers.

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@AaronGoodrich8 @christo37562022 @JustStop_Oil But it's OK to release violent offenders early to make room for soup throwers?

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@maddenifico I would guess that Americans with even just half a brain are so embarrassed that they voted the imbecile Trump into power once before. What did the US do? Ask to find the stupidest person in the country to lead them and represent them to the rest of the world?

[Titian Topsy @TitianTopsy]

@AmandaSamuels4 @DreyfusJames Do you mean like those French men having non-consensual s@x with an unconscious woman? They say it's not r@pe because her husband said it was OK. Will you believe it of some of the accused and not others, depending on who you like?

[Dr Julia Grace Patterson💙 @JujuliaGrace]

In a country where there are food banks in NHS hospitals, politicians do not need free clothes.

A lot of us aren’t impressed by politicians wearing fancy clothes. We’re impressed by integrity.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Governments should not be indebted to large donors or vested interests.

They should be indebted to the people they were elected to serve.

That means being tough on fossil fuel giants and the arms industry, not on children and pensioners in poverty!

Shame Must Change Sides.

Gisèle Pélicot, a French national, endured at least 92 sexual assaults committed by over 72 men over 10 years, while she was drugged by her husband, Dominique Pélicot, who documented many of the rapes.
'She could have opted for a closed trial, but that’s what her attackers would have wanted'.

She has courageously decided that the trial of her accused rapists be made public. This is to make other women aware of the excuses and games such men use and to reveal what these men look like: just any other man.

Apparently few men declined the 'offer' when approached online. However, none of them sounded any alarm or reported the authorities.

She will have to endure all this horrible ordeal all over again just because the one and only person who was supposed to be her protector, became her perpetrator.

All my support and strength with Gisèle Pélicot and her children during this trial.

Here are the names of other perpetrators who could be identified till now. Some of these men were HIV+ and/or suffering from other STDs. Gisèle found that she was carrying four STD's.
This is a case that has shocked France, and the world, all the more so because the trial is being held in public.
She stands tall but I am sure she is breaking up inside. 😥
