Razor blades and stickers again

Bless.

Calling teenagers out for telling fibs is what we do.

‘Some women are mums, get over it’

😂

Ooh — i’m Twitter famous!

GMP are hilariously funny on twitter so they might respond to a tweet (although it was GM BTP who checked out Oxford Rd St on Wednesday evening).

Transport for Greater Manchester might respond to a query, too, or Northern Rail.

I thought about asking the station man if I could make a video of him (or even just have his name) but I didn’t want to risk unleashing the wrath of Tralala Twitter onto a nice man who was just minding his own business, responding to a public query in the workplace.

Ah - I was looking at the @ BTP - thanks ShrodingersSturdyPyjamas - I should have realised I needed to look at the more local BTP!

Hamster.

I've done a screen shot of the original and the response.

Several people have asked if any were found, but it seems the whole of the BTP are either busy icing a cake or cakes, or cannot use a keyboard any more due to all losing the ends of their fingers in the removal of the razor blades. [That is sarcasm by the way].

Bizarrely, HamsterToast - tho' I can see where a number of people in the OP' screen shot's comment thread have @'d in BTP, Manchester Police, the train operators, station operators etc. - I've failing to see responses but I haven't read the comments with my full attention.

Via Phillipa Black (I can't believe she has so few Twitter followers), I clicked and came to this remarkable thread:

Have a look at the visual - but do entertain yourself with some of the comments. I particularly enjoyed, the enquiries about whether the stickers would adhere to bricks (asking for a friend) and the joyous enquiry

Is this advocating stoning? So progressive, so stunning so brave

I wonder how many TW toilet cleaners there are?

Toolshed, I now have a delightfully goofy smile on my face. Best post evar.

Aw, not ‘Stanleyetta’ then?

Congrats on your new coercively assigned feminist at birth!

Thanks for all of your lovely comments and wishes re our new arrival.

The baby arrived before the midwives could turn up (home birth) and probably, because the mini toolbox was deliciously pink upon arrival, DH coercively assigned her as female. But he is a HCP, so it is to be expected.
Thankfully she has demanded high heels, a gift certificate for a day spa and gel nails so we are almost certain she has been assigned correctly.

In lieu of a government assigned number, she has a rather lovely first name with the middle names Rosa (after Prof Rosa Freedman and Rosa May Billinghurst) and Constance (after Constance Markievicz).

So far this morning she has been on the phone to discuss scud missiles with the local stationery shop. Naughty TERFy newborn.

I found myself remembering the day in kindergarten when the teachers showed us Dumbo, and I realized for the first time that all the kids in the class, even the bullies, rooted for Dumbo, against Dumbo's tormentors. Invariably they laughed and cheered, both when Dumbo succeeded and when bad things happened to his enemies. But they're you, I thought to myself. How did they not know? They didn't know. It was astounding, an astounding truth. Everyone thought they were Dumbo.” ― Elif Batuman, The Idiot

Reading these pious reverses from the likes of Harrop and Bradley strongly puts me in mind of the above...

Looks a bit like razor blades being used to cut themselves in that picture @UndercoverGC ? The plot thickens. Maybe 404 can tell us what type of blade that is seeing as how they appear to be the expert in these matters.

Sigh. If Jess wants to be all 'think of the cleaners', shame they couldn't have done so when literally smearing their own blood around as part of a protest.

Apparently you can now order the stickers with razors already attached. Would be a bit dangerous though, for anything/anyone caught in the bear trap.

Apropos of nothing, the bear trap outside my house is the size of a ford galaxy and entirely humane I think it would take too long to order stickers and put one on it for photographic purposes, but you have No Idea how tempted I am.

Just realised my sympathy sounded a bit trite Truthmytruth and a little "I'm alright Jack". Sorry. I hope things work out for your teen.

Yaay, a baby toolshed! Congratulations.

Sorry to hear that Truthmy truth. I'm relieved my own kids are now adults, in these disturbing times.

Let's please not speculate what Jess was thinking about when they were wanking at their desk.
