If your feminism believes that being a woman is a set of stereotypes with which men can identify, it is not feminism, it is misogyny.

Parents in France are setting lawyers on surgeons, pressuring them to cancel planned mastectomies from being carried out on their mentally unwell daughters.

There is a very simple test for any sentencing system. When two girls are raped and the attack is filmed, does the public believe justice has been done? If the answer is no, the system has failed. Not because the public is bloodthirsty. Not because people do not understand rehabilitation. Not because everyone wants children locked up forever. But because ordinary people still understand something our legal establishment increasingly appears to forget: Some crimes are so grave that punishment is not optional. A youth rehabilitation order may be appropriate for theft, vandalism, drugs, disorder or a young offender’s first serious mistake. But rape is not “misjudgment”. Filming it is not immaturity. Sparing custody in a case like this does not send a message of mercy. It sends a message of weakness. And weakness in the face of sexual violence is not neutral. It tells victims that their suffering can be outweighed by the offender’s future. It tells the public that the courts are more anxious about “criminalising” criminals than protecting girls. The Attorney General should refer this sentence. The Court of Appeal should correct it. And Parliament should stop outsourcing moral judgment to a sentencing bureaucracy that appears incapable of recognising the obvious.

This is the point that needs now loudly to be made. Women were told, "use a lockable cubicle if you wish to avoid the blokes". Now that men are once again required to use the men's, trans-claiming men should be told "use a lockable cubicle if you wish to avoid the blokes". Karma.

Here is my piece from a few years ago about the SDA. You see why I’m not writing new stuff, as everything I said would happen happens. I’m weary. So here is old stuff. spectator.com.au/2024/08/our-ab…

@jimbohuff @dilanesper Teaching a sacred caste of boys that they have the right to ignore female boundaries and to cheat them of their successes is unfair, unethical and downright misogynistic. Any parent supporting their son to do this is failing him in every possible way and harming girls.

@dilanesper I have 2 daughters that do high school track and soccer and I beg to differ. They train hard for long hours in all kinds of weather. They absolutely deserve fair competition. They are not simply “extras” in a boy’s fantasy about being a girl.

Hey, @elonmusk, @KDansky's account has been mass reported by trans activists. She’s locked & suspended. Please look into this and help her get her account back. Terven, one of our fearless leaders needs us. Please help Kara and spread this post far & wide!

@DrMichaelScoma Would you consider prescribing microdose Tirzepatide to a patient on long term Prucalopride?

In microdosing, tolerability in my cohort has been favorable. The majority of patients have remained free of significant nausea, abdominal pain, or constipation. Dose reduction appears to preserve therapeutic effect while limiting adverse gastrointestinal side effects.

Tirzepatide in ME/CFS, Long COVID, and MCAS In a spectrum where many interventions prove inconsistent, microdosed tirzepatide has demonstrated a reproducible clinical signal in my practice. The relative consistency observed justifies examining plausible biologic mechanisms. 🧵

I, too, was surprised that an MP took at face value a man recounting how he wet himself in public three times because he was too fearful of using public toilets following the Supreme Court judgment. It suggests either male sexual fetish, or v serious mental health issues.

@glosswitch @nubula93 Gosh he’s a right twat.

To make sense of this, given how at odds it is with women's experience of the world, you need to understand that "high" stands for "important" and "low" for "unimportant"

@DarainChains Balls. I suspected as much. Hope you feel better soon.💐

Hereditary hemochromatosis is most commonly found in individuals of Northern European descent, particularly those of Celtic ancestry. About 1 in 15 people of this ancestry carry a gene mutation associated with the condition. I made this post between sleeping yesterday. Lol. Talking in a space crashed me out so bad. It was half assed. So not just Irish but Irish seems to have the strongest prevalence of hemochromatosis.

Direct Amyloidogenesis: The spike protein itself is amyloidogenic. This means the protein’s shape is prone to misfolding. When it enters the blood of someone with 1 or two copies of the hemochromatosis gene (pay attention Irish ancestry), the high oxidative stress causes the spike to tangle with your blood proteins (fibrinogen). The Indestructible Clot: Unlike a normal blood clot that your body can dissolve, these Spike-Amyloid tangles are resistant to Fibrinolysis (the body's natural drain cleaner). MMP-1 Overdrive: (40-50% of the population has increased MMP1 at baseline) The MMP-1 demolition crew sees these indestructible tangles and goes into a panic. It starts dumping more enzymes to try and clear the blockage, but instead of eating the clot, it eats the collagen in your vessel walls. Why am I adding the genetics? Because the damage will show up in these people first. They are already primed for the very mechanisms the virus uses.

THERE IS NO WAY TO LEGISLATE FOR UNVERIFIABLE BELIEFS ABOUT ONESELF

@mattjcan @nick0364 GI needs to be completely removed from law. There is no way to legislate for unverifiable internal beliefs about oneself. There is sex as a category, & that’s it.

Boom Boom chika Boom!!💥

@babybeginner @TerfSchool Exactly if the only appeal of the room is the women in it you *aren't* asking for access to toilet facilities you're asking for privileged access to women.

@CraigSarg73 @pjfred60 Source? Trust me Bro.

Australia now has the world’s strongest economy and some of its weakest economic reporting. Coverage of the latest Federal Budget exposed just how far standards in Australia’s media have declined. The Budget data showed Australia remains one of the strongest-performing advanced economies on Earth. It is currently the only country with unemployment and inflation both below 4.7%, median adult wealth above US$250,000, triple-A credit ratings from all major agencies, moderate interest rates, and government debt below 25% of GDP. On top of that, the Budget introduced reforms aimed at tackling long-standing structural inequities changes that many economists argue were overdue. In most countries, results like these would dominate headlines and strengthen public confidence. Instead, much of Australia’s media responded with outrage, fear campaigns and ideological attacks. Headlines warned of “budget debacles”, “dire consequences”, “war on wealth”, and “further pain”, while largely ignoring Australia’s globally leading economic performance. Much of the commentary relied on the same recycled narratives that have dominated economic reporting for years narratives that often collapse under scrutiny. Claim: Living standards are falling. Reality: Living standards dipped globally after COVID, including in Australia, but key indicators have rebounded strongly since 2023. Australians are travelling overseas in record numbers, spending more on dining, retail and discretionary goods, and consumer activity has surged. Claim: Wages are going backwards. Reality: Real wages were hit during the inflation spike that followed the pandemic, but wage growth has now outpaced inflation. Since late 2023, wages, pensions and welfare payments have all risen faster than consumer prices. Claim: Australia is a high-tax country. Reality: Australia remains one of the lower-taxed advanced economies. The GST is just 10%, far below consumption taxes across much of Europe, while Australia’s total tax-to-GDP ratio sits near the bottom of the OECD. Claim: Labor keeps increasing taxes. Reality: IMF data places Australia among the lowest-taxing developed economies in both 2025 and 2026. Claim: Labor is anti-business. Reality: Business profits outside mining have reached record highs, while employment and expansion across many sectors continue to grow. Claim: Labor spends recklessly. Reality: Spending as a share of GDP under Anthony Albanese remains below levels seen under several previous governments, including the Morrison Government. Claim: Business investment is collapsing. Reality: Investment stagnated during the Coalition years but has resumed growth under the current government. The bigger issue is what this says about Australia’s media culture. Economic reporting increasingly resembles political campaigning rather than factual analysis. Too often, selective statistics, misleading framing and emotionally loaded commentary replace balanced reporting. When positive economic outcomes are ignored while fear and outrage dominate coverage, it damages public trust, distorts national debate and weakens social cohesion. Australia’s economy is not perfect. Productivity, housing affordability and inequality remain serious challenges. But pretending the country is in economic collapse despite internationally strong results does not inform the public. It misleads them.

@momoonla @PacoOnPause It’s a postulation. Have you disproved it? Study?

@spritesfly @PacoOnPause No. #ThisIsFalse Stop spreading this dangerous misinformation. You are doing harm.

Every improvement I've had has been preceded by a backslide and every setback has also been preceded by a backslide. My body has been doing weird things for over a month and I feel like I'm either going to get better or worse. 50/50 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@angijones @spritesfly @AlboMP I won’t vote for any candidate that doesn’t defend single sex spaces. We fought for them, we won them, then they were given away by Australia’s greatest misogynist & homophobe, @JuliaGillard I won’t be voting ALP again unless they #RepealTheGillardAmendments

@babybeginner @coccinellanovem In what fucking universe?!?! No!

I REALLY need to take the temperature of people. Hypothetical: You’re at a conference. Magazines are on a table as free literature. Angry woman comes along, takes a whole stack. She’s told not to. She throws them away. Man in response slaps her across the face. Is that ok?
