Bomb squad taking their time with a suspicious backpack? This Milwaukee man said 'fine, I'll do it myself' 😂 Rode in, emptied the bag on the street, then got bodied by cops.

@JournalistJill After a visit to the orthopaedic department they gave me a foot splint. It didn’t work, was unused & they never asked for it back. It cost £500! No wonder the NHS a has no money

The NHS won’t take things back. We had boxes of bandages, unopened medications and creams etc when my grandmother died. We offered to take it all back and they refused. We ended up giving it all to a private nursing home. Ridiculous.
MaxC@ColeFusionHQ

the NHS spends £15m a year replacing equipment that patients never gave back. crutches in the loft. oxygen machines in the lounge. wheelchairs in the garage. walking frames behind the sofa. what NHS equipment has your family quietly kept

@irenebritusa I’m not anti trans. I’m a believer in be what you want. Live and let live but don’t you dare come for women’s safe spaces & sports. That’s just not right on every level

Megan Rapinoe is all for an all-male podium in a women's event. She is livid that women are getting back their own category at the Olympics. What a traitor.

@KeruboSk @stomababe I’m a carer. I have to be there 24/7. No breaks, no sitting, no just being. I can never settle, never stop. It’s relentless & no-one to help. No one to care. Tough days do last, they go on & on

Can you imagine having anxiety & depression but then also having the responsibility of a whole other human 24/7… Thinking about what they want to eat when you can’t even eat, having to get them ready to go outside when you don’t even want to leave the house. It’s A LOT! To the mom who is going through it right now, well done for showing up even on your darkest days. I just want you to know tough days never last, I promise.

Gentle reminder: When you notice your mental health declining, do one small thing that brings you peace. Take a shower, text a loved one, step outside. One little step is all you need to remind yourself that this is not permanent.

"Trans women" haven't been banned from women's sports. Men have. Hope this helps!

Today's ruling by the IOC means a welcome return to fair sport for women and girls, but I'll never forget the scandal of Paris 2024, when people who consider themselves supremely virtuous and progressive publicly cheered on men punching women.

If you put a potato in the microwave and press pizza, when you take it out it's still a potato. That's how genders work.

@claire88424030 If every woman on the planet had one fitted, rape would be zero. The fact women require this device to protect themselves is sad

@GMB I love La Voix but can you stop referring to him as a woman(she). Whether wearing make-up and a dress or jeans and T-shirt. He is a man

Dear friend (who thinks I’m unkind - or even homophobic), Remember how much we loved Boy George and Marilyn when we were growing up? Our parents weren’t thrilled by men in make-up and dresses - but we thought they were cool. They were expressing individuality and challenging rigid gender stereotypes. You and I both grew up supporting gay rights for a simple reason: people shouldn’t be punished, excluded or shamed for who they love. That belief hasn’t changed. But being gay, lesbian or bisexual is about who you’re attracted to. Gender identity is about how someone understands or describes themselves. Those are not the same thing. And treating them as if they are puts women and girls at risk. Here’s the crucial difference. Many of the pop stars we grew up with played with gender expression - flamboyant clothes, make-up, theatrical performance. David Bowie made a whole art form out of it. But we still understood they were men - and so did they. They weren’t demanding entry to women’s spaces. They weren’t claiming women’s awards or competing in women’s sporting categories. And women weren’t being forced to agree that the man standing in front of them was a woman - or risk social or professional consequences. We both have daughters now - young women just starting their adult lives. I’ve taught mine that no means no and I’m sure you’ve taught yours the same. But that message becomes meaningless if our girls are also being told they must say “yes” to any man who says he’s a woman - even when their instincts say otherwise. If a girl isn’t interested in make-up or stereotypically feminine things, she may be told she’s actually a man - rather than simply a strong, independent young woman who dresses and behaves as she pleases. And if she’s same-sex attracted, she may face pressure from men who identify as “lesbians” and expect access to her spaces - and her body - something we'd never have accepted as progressive or 'kind' when we were younger. Single-sex spaces - toilets, changing rooms, hospital wards, refuges, prisons - exist because women need them. Not because all men are dangerous, but because male violence is a reality and sex-based boundaries reduce risk. Women cannot know which men pose a threat and which don’t. That’s why all must stay out of women's spaces. Good men understand this - without question. I know you want to be kind. So do I. But kindness isn’t asking women and girls to surrender their privacy, dignity or safety in order to prove they’re “tolerant”. Or calling them 'homophobic' or bigoted for saying no. With love, Janet

"Police found over 100 secretly recorded videos of women taken inside public bathrooms. He told police he was in the female toilets because he 'wasn't sure about his gender.' The court let him off without a conviction."
