That fake concern for butch/tall women again. They give no fucks about those women, so it's pointless to point out how easily we can tell the difference. What they want is to make it taboo for us to challenge ANYONE in our spaces, no matter how obviously male. >
Oh, a Rupert Bear annual from 1951! I wonder what hilariously outdated things it might OH HOLY FUCK NO π§
Rupert Bear is SO cancelled.
Visiting my grandpa (a deaf retired vicar with no kids' stuff in his house) was always boring, so my brother & I just... brought our own toys & books, like surely every family does. If we'd dared to act like those JLP kids, the bollocking from mum would have been APOCALYPTIC.
Absolutely revelling in the schadenfreude of everyone hating the John Lewis advert. Just glorious. ππ€©

Friend's daughter's TiF gf, previously with a neutral name, now calling herself a manly butch name (think like "Maximus"). They turned up at Halloween party; watching the adults scramble to use the new name & pronouns was seriously embarrassing. No wonder the kids do it.
I like this take, but my Prequels opinion is that Anakin should have gone to the Dark Side at the end of episode 2, then Ep 3 is pregnant Padme (a la Sarah Connor) fleeing to join the proto-Rebellion, ends with her dead (by Vader, by accident?) and kids safe.
George Lucas didnβt have the balls to tell the actually compelling story here: Padme really was going to die during pregnancy, the Dark Side really is stronger, Anakin becomes a Sith to save her and his children, and he does save them, but after learning of the terrible things heβs done (younglings), she kills herself. Thatβs a story. Shakespearean. Like Hamletβs Ophelia. In that version, Anakin had to become Vader for Luke to be born, so that together they could overthrow the Emperor. Suddenly everything falls into place. Instead Lucas has to tell the boring black-and-white version where Palpatine was just lying and there was actually no point whatsoever in Anakin becoming a Sith and Padme just spontaneously evaporates.

The other day, on a busy and delayed evening train, someone was playing music not just through his phone, but on an actual Bluetooth speaker! But the music was quite good so instead of tutting loudly I Shazamed it & added it to my own playlist π«£ *hands back British citizenship*

Women: "we object to simulated murder being normalised as a sex act especially when it's very likely to actually kill us"
Porn-addled men:
Replying to @CarolineVoaden
What if you hold your own breath during sex? Is that illegal? If so, how many seconds of holding ones breath counts as a criminal act?
Yes...the law is stupid.

I once had dinner with the girlfriend of the bloke who directed Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer video π
Whoβs the most famous person youβve ever spoken to?
Not βseen from far awayβ β actually talked to, even for a minute.
A quick hello, a handshake, a normal conversation⦠and you still remember it.
Who was it?

Reposting this in light of a) further Arday discourse and b) its use to protect other men from having their actions exposed.
That Arday killed himself makes him MORE of a dick, not less. And the people weaponising this to attack journalists and defend predators are monsters.
This Halloween I'm going dressed as a slightly overweight middle-aged goth in a too-tight outfit. Would prob have been scarier (and more comfortable) to just dress as a massive terf but here we are

Re Oxford Boob Man: going "women shd wear big prosthetic cocks in protest!" is to miss how asymmetric sexual threat is. Yes, both are ridiculous, but this is also a large man in position of power, literally wearing his sex fetish up front, it's not just a comedy costume. >
"meat lego" thinking is a fundamental but underappreciated facet of genderism. E.g. this sick fuck talking about "external female genitalia" in ref to breastfeeding mechanisms - like there's a basic neutral body template with interchangeable sex bits attached. >
My friends have Covid so I'm at home and I want to do tetchy terfposting but everyone will be watching the Traitors and nobody will read my posts (which would definitely have been excellent) ππ€¬

I can't get over this Waluigi person, it seriously looks like her mates drew on some eyebrows and tache when she was drunk with a permanent marker and she's just trying to style it out

Good news, but damn, how much more public money are captured administrations going to keep wasting on this crap?
Well done @WomenOfWessex
Bristol City Council has apologised "unreservedly" and agreed to pay some legal costs after two gender critical campaigners were banned from the chamber.

This may be a Labour thing now, but 20y ago it was a common rw Libertarian argument that people wd naturally work towards optimisation if left alone by govt, why do lefties have such negative view of human nature that we need laws, etc etc. People are just bad at theory of mind.
There seems to be an endemic problem in Labour where they assume that everyone else is basically like them and wants to work together for a better future. The concept that there might be bad actors out there willing to work the system for their own advantage cannot be mentioned
