It was a privilege to take part in this discussion on behalf of @ParentingCirc1e Sorry about all my erm-ing @CristinaOhq ! Thank you for your expert steering of the discussion.

@glosswitch In my view the boys are trying to procure a reaction from the men around them when they behave like this. They’re testing and looking for cues about where the boundaries are in real life, and in my school experience, they rarely get them.

@sappholives83 We have Fruit Winders. I think they’re fairly wholesome

I’m 42 years old, but I still love me some fruit by the foot. And no, it’s got nothing to do with feet lol. It’s just a specific kind of fruit roll up that’s very definitely marketed for kids, and almost certainly has no redeeming nutritional value whatsoever. Do they have it in the UK? Are fruit roll ups even a thing there? And does anyone else eat food that’s mostly meant for kids? I have a weakness for the kinds of things that end up in lunchboxes of kids whose parents can afford the extras. I’m sure there’s some deep psychological reason, probably stemming from growing up in a family where those sorts of treats were a rarity, but I do feel a bit silly sometimes.

Looking forward to new versions! Cherry Marmite Frosted Marmite Aerosol Marmite

Right wing folk being surprised that *unions* are left wing is quite hilarious

The “don’t know” re the Lib Dems is a bit of an eye-opener. 👀

@elliehodges62 @LightninLex Unions are political movements. This is not a gotcha. Thr NEU is a membership association and under no obligation to be politically neutral.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 I’ve got my hands on the 2026 conference agenda for the National Education Union the UK’s largest teaching union. It states: “Reaffirm the union’s opposition to all forms of racism, fascism and far-right extremism, including the divisive politics promoted by Reform UK.” And then: “The trade union movement must throw its full weight behind stopping a Reform UK government.” This isn’t neutral. It’s the UK’s largest teaching union taking a clear position against a political party while Zack Polanski has been invited to speak at conference. And these are the people shaping what’s happening in our classrooms. Have a look at this material yourself⬇️

@MrTCHarris @JillCollier16 Do they mean toilet by toilet case? Or man by man case?

How it started . . . How it's going. . .

Fingers crossed it was all dark chocolate chunkies

@Michael54905936 @WingsScotland they are sometimes inverted commas, but perhaps 'inverted' is triggering nazi dogwhistle

@WingsScotland Quotation marks are not commas, regardless of their lived experience!

BREAKING: commas are Nazi now.

@jan_murray It’s weird how writing is so closely connected to biscuits

@A_A_Almonds @CPSUK @CNviolations Who is he handcuffed to in that pic?

@CPSUK @CNviolations The Crown Prosecution Service of the United Kingdom is lying. Convicted murderer Aurin Makepeace is not a woman: he is a cross-dressing man. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

@Parody_PM I’m no Farage fan but this “virgin” BS is straight out of a misogynistic right wing, manosphere playbook

Alexa, what does a young fascist virgin look like?

@SharonaZamboni @HormoneHangover “Rub my back- ugh no stop that’s horrible “

@AngstAHD @HormoneHangover Me, on the short drive to hospital for #2 : that’s Rush (the band) on the radio! Shut it off! Stop for all the bumps in the road! Give me a cigarette! Granted, I was well into transition phase before we even got in the car.

I could never pay for a doula because what if she was really annoying when I went into labor. Happened to a friend of mine. The nurses can annoy me for free

@RosieDuffield1 And what was with all the “If we accept trans people exist” from Alex Sopel et al? Catholics exist. But we’re not giving blessed wine transfusions to children on the NHS are we 🤦‍♀️

@NewStatesman @PronouncedAlva Yeah. You’re welcome 😂

@NewStatesman @PronouncedAlva Is your keyboard broken. Angel Rayner? Leaderhip?

When workmen ask me for two sugars, i don't believe them and give them one and a bit.

If people want to know why Gen X is always mad, it's because we had to replace our record collections with a tape collection and then replace that with a CD collection that we slowly replaced with an MP3 collection and now need a subscription to listen to music.

@TheRealBrandWiz @rustynew386 @GayPenguins1 @ToBeDamnedOrNot @sueveneer We have 3 generations of terfs here. My sons are weirdly resistance

Hmmmm. I wonder why they don't want to hire a man who wears his fetish to work? CNA nurses are involved with intimate care. How would he react when a vulnerable patient asks for same sex care? Would you trust him with your vulnerable friends or relatives?
