"Gender dysphoria" is a term that hides male sexual fetishes by grouping them together with the body dysmorphia experienced by girls and women, many of whom survived sexual abuse

Follow the logic. Women are deluded and naive for thinking predatory and violent men can be kept out of women-only spaces. ‘They can rape you anywhere.’ However, trans-identified men can only be safe in women-only spaces, because no abuser would ever follow them in there.

@blablafishcakes 19. I never owned an encyclopedia, I would go to the library for that.

20 out of 20. But I am four hundred years old...

I’ve spent years now opposing legislation in California. The legislation is so crazy that when I try to explain it to normies, they think I’m the crazy one. I meet with the offices of the legislators pushing these insane bills, and they treat us with barely contained disdain. We register our opposition publicly in Sacramento during hearings, and the room is full of folks who think we’re some kind of internet-deranged bigots for not wanting penises in our locker rooms or girls to have their healthy breasts removed. Going to DC really opened my eyes to how poorly we are treated in CA. It’s like I’ve become accustomed to being treated badly. I have to remember this is not ok. It’s not ok for lawmakers to ignore us, treat us poorly, and refuse to engage with us. This is an 80/20 issue. But until these legislators start paying the price for supporting boys in girls’ spaces, nothing will change. Every time I mount opposition to the next crazy bill, I know we may lose the battle, but I also know in my heart we will win the war. We cannot win if we do not fight.

My recent speech at the Cambridge Union is in the Free Press. Click to read about how harmful modern LGBTQ+ 'activism' is going too far. @TheFP thefp.com/p/maeve-hallig…

Not all young women. Not by any means. And any 'consensus' is meaningless when the price of disagreement is harassment and social exile. You're not measuring opinion, you're measuring fear.

@dsonoiki songsterr.com has lots of tabs of Paul Simon's songs.

@dsonoiki Hearts and Bones!

I got really into guitar last year and there’s this one guy who makes great lesson videos on YouTube but he’s constantly making jokes throughout it’s so annoying. I want to learn Paul Simon songs. I don’t want to hear your stupid jokes his lessons are really good tho

The promoters of “gender-affirming care” tried to quash scientific debate on its effects through name-calling and by designating as “settled science” the claim that it improves the mental health of dysphoric kids. It’s now clear why they feared open scientific inquiry.

In my career defending academic freedom and free speech, I never saw anything become as immediately radioactive as views that ran counter to the narrative on trans issues. Papers were retracted, compelled speech was treated as normal, and people were canceled for saying things that would have sounded like common sense just a few years earlier. It seemed to become a kind of secular blasphemy overnight. And usually, that is a sign that the true believers know, at some level, that they are on shaky ground. @hoovlet

A woman in New Hampshire had her @PlanetFitness membership revoked for "transphobia" after complaining to staff about a male using the women's locker room. The man was later identified online as a transgender registered sex offender. reduxx.info/womans-gym-mem…

@sappholives83 Any comment .@PlanetFitness? Or are you happy to welcome men who are convicted child predators, guilty of domestic violence, and stalkers into your establishments & then ban members who raise concerns? #BoycottPlanetFitness

@sappholives83 @PlanetFitness needs to be boycotted nationally to learn from this horrible treatment of women.

Judy Walcott, a woman in New Hampshire, has been banned from her local Planet Fitness because she objected to the presence in the women’s changing room of a man who is a convicted child predator, domestic abuser, and stalker. This man, Christopher Beaulieu, also has additional convictions for changing his name without reporting it to authorities as required by law — remember when we told you this would be one result of SelfID? In addition to hanging around watching people in the women’s changing room at PF, this creep also makes a habit out of hanging out at Chuck E Cheese (which is such a red flag that every cop I know thinks that any mentally able adult man found there by himself should get an automatic hard drive check). Judy reported this man’s presence and behavior to PF staff, and was ignored. When she told another staff member about Beaulieu’s behavior a few days later, and the employee called her “transphobic,” and told her to quit coming to the gym if she didn’t like it. A few hours later, Judy received a call from the assistant manager, who cancelled her membership, forging her signature in the process. If you’d told me 20 years ago that by 2026, women would be banned from gyms and stores, and even criminally charged, for not wanting to change clothes in front of leering male transvestite sex offenders, I’d have laughed in your face. The world has gone mad.

I was addicted to meth and heroin for the first several years of my adult life. I am grateful every day that I was caught and arrested in a state like Montana that was tough on crime, and didn't just supply me with accoutrements and leave me on the street to die a slow death like they do here in California. My charge was felony possession. I spent 90 days in jail detoxing because I couldn't afford to pay bail. Thank God for that. When I was let out I was forced to wear a drug patch and report for random supervised urine tests, or risk going back to jail. I was put on the strictest probation, and forced into an outpatient treatment program. I was able to go to the shelter, which required sobriety and an honest effort to better my life. The very real threat of going to prison to serve my full sentence if I screwed again motivated me to stay clean. Because of tough love policies, I am alive today. What people are doing here in California, Oregon and Washington is NOT compassion, it's toxic empathy, and it's manslaughter. Decriminalization only serves to remove ANY hope of the addict ever getting sober. I couldn't get sober on my own, I tried for years, without being forced to detox in jail I'd probably be dead today. Part of me wonders if that's the point? 9 years sober as of January 31st.

My experience with street protests is that young women are often the most aggressive defenders of the trans agenda. But this week in DC flipped my reality. A 17-year-old girl looked me straight in the face and said, before she even knew I was a terf: “Trans isn’t a real thing.” The female receptionists for the 8 Democrats who voted to stop secret school transitions were completely open to my pitch that men can’t become women. And when I showed young female Democratic staffers, in very woke offices, men’s mugshots and asked them to imagine being locked in a cell with him, they visibly blanched. These young folks may save us yet. The fight continues.

@tao_of_healing @SamaHoole I think it's the fat itself immediately. I'm just guessing. When I interviewed and/or read about vegans who went back to eating animals in '09, many started with fish and felt much better. There's many nutrients in that Salmon she was in need of besides n-3.

@SamaHoole Brain phospholipid DHA turns over across months to years, so one Reykjavik dinner could not have remodeled the membrane fat your 'came back online with the salmon' line credits, which means whatever rebooted her overnight was something faster-acting than omega-3 reaching neurons.

Anne Hathaway, in 2014, was filming Interstellar in Iceland. Hathaway had been vegan, by that point, for several years. She had announced the diet publicly. She had defended it in interviews. She had built part of her public image around it. Her husband Adam Shulman had supported it through every dinner. In Reykjavik, during a break in filming, she went to a Michelin-starred restaurant with Shulman and her co-star Matt Damon. Damon told the chef to choose the meal for the table. The plates arrived. Salmon. Hathaway, in her own retelling to Tatler, asked sheepishly: "Is your fish local?" The waiter replied: "Do you see that fjord?" She ate the salmon. The phrase she used, afterwards, was that her brain felt like "a computer rebooting." She felt better the next day. She has not returned to veganism since, except briefly for a film role in 2022, which lasted three weeks before she turned to Shulman one morning and said: "I need a burger." Anne Hathaway has access to the best nutritionists in the world. She has the discipline of a working actress who can starve herself for parts and gain weight for others. She has the resources to source any plant-based ingredient on the planet, at any time, in any quantity. She also has a nervous system. The nervous system did the talking. On a piece of salmon, in a Reykjavik restaurant, on a Tuesday in 2014, it rebooted. The metaphor, in the literal medical sense, is almost accurate. The brain is approximately 60% fat. The fat it prefers, structurally, is the long-chain omega-3 found in oily fish. The fjord was full of it. Her bloodstream, prior to that dinner, had been running on flax. The system came back online with the salmon. She has not gone back.

@JenniferSey @glennagoldis I read that he, Richards, is against men in women's sports now. I think Martina also helped him at the time.

Billie Jean King helped Richard Raskind ("Renee Richards") win a 1977 lawsuit against the USTA so he could play professional tennis against women. He then became BJKs doubles partner - not mixed doubles. Women's doubles. h/t @glennagoldis

To anyone worried about the political party “purity” of your voting record, the LA Mayoral race is non-partisan. And you’re not a government representative, so whom and what you voted for is not public anyway. The only way people will know for whom you voted is if you tell them. And if you’re friends with someone who would kick you aside just because you voted for some sanity in LA, then they weren’t much of a friend to begin with.

How can Billie Jean King admit that men are stronger and faster and still defend males competing in women's sports?
