Here's my post replying to Moth
Thats an interesting article moth. Best not on the board or MRAs would be all over it!
I was wondering today, hopefully, if the news about darts getting rid of the girls means the overton window is shifting and maybe p0rn will become less acceptable?
If not all this hooha about F1 girls and the presidents club is just tinkering on the edges.

thanks Waddle
I love the idea of a secret room with a Coraline world behind it Grin

light possibly fake picture added with requests for pic with biscuits/haribo in it to prove it's actually her photo. MN have confirmed she's a non previously troll poster. She says it's a smallish room cold & damp. The sun have got the story so she says she will get thread pulled.

Tl:dr probably bollocks & not interesting bollocks either. Although the comments are funny Grin

Melamin · 08/06/2018 22:48

My computer doesn't like it much either - keeps crashing Hmm

LighthouseSouth · 08/06/2018 22:02

has anyone read the hidden door thread...? Just wondering if anything interesting happened. My ipad really hates MN at the moment for some reason. Or maybe it's Safari, I don't know.

LighthouseSouth · 08/06/2018 13:00

it's not bad

he chose to live as he did, I'm sure he knew people would have strong views on it.

Waddlelikeapenguin · 08/06/2018 09:48

Ha! Lighthouse i had the same (bad Blush) thought.

LighthouseSouth · 07/06/2018 13:03

Well I'm going to say it
He's 82
There's a group of this lot who will be dying out. We are minus one misogynist looking at today's news.

If I understood correctly from the Jeanette Winterson lecture, #Metoo is not about needing 'protection' but respect, so he needs to get on respecting instead of all this public 'allying' stuff.

ErrolTheDragon · 07/06/2018 12:32

Even if his record was completely untarnished, WTF would any man think a women's campaign would want a 'poster boy'?

ISaySteadyOn · 07/06/2018 10:31

I know. It's a headline on Feminist Current.

Just wanted to share that Woody Allen thinks he should be considered an ally of the #MeToo movement. Hmm

LighthouseSouth · 05/06/2018 20:05

Why would Posie be seen as a weak spot? She's been superb.

Unrelated rant....I feel as if it's constant cleaning round here. It's because we live on a busy road, so early summer and constant window open means constant dust....

Maybe we should stick sheets over bookcases and sofa!!

YetAnotherSpartacus · 05/06/2018 20:01

I'm still trying to work out what she was alleged to have said and why it was so inflammatory.

Waddlelikeapenguin · 05/06/2018 17:02

Yes I think they are seeing posy as the chink in the armour they are looking too close there is a whole schiltron of us if they'd just zoom out

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 05/06/2018 16:24

I did report one of the threads

And then every thread i looked at seemed to turn into another posy thread

I'm exaggerating but not be much

LighthouseSouth · 05/06/2018 15:50

What is the Posie drama, is she all right, I hope so.

Now off to google "gishing" and "brigading"....!

YetAnotherSpartacus · 05/06/2018 14:49

Oh god Rufus yes people you felt like you 'knew' on here behaving differently than erm expected

I missed that I think ...

Don't understand the Posie drama.

But there are a lot of Goady Fuckers out there at the moment.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 05/06/2018 14:14

I will say that ive found some of these internet 'debate' terms very interesting

Like 'gishing'

And when someone types it on a thread im like 'fuck yeah!! I've seen this'

womanformallyknownaswoman · 05/06/2018 13:55

The brigading is tiresome - small minded games for small minds.

Still I and others are very resourceful;)

Hugs x

ErrolTheDragon · 05/06/2018 13:36

Me too ... the atmosphere seemed to get, febrile I think is the word I want.

I think I may be due a break from MN - I tend to start spending too long keeping up with lots of threads and not enough on real life.
