Mermaid's associate intersectional cis feminist She/Her

Hi Squirrel Nutkin. Nothing sinister here. As I understand it, it's standard to run for 28 days so it ended on Sunday night. I know they are delighted with the support. They got very close to the stretch target with a huge rush on the last day. They had not asked for any funding for two years so they really needed it. You might notice that the DONATE buttons are a bit more prominent on their website now so hopefully they won't have to do another big ask, unless there's something major like a legal case.

Did they meet the stretch target? Or is the funding website doing the same thing they did with Allison Bailey and closing the donations option as soon as the initial target has been reached?

I can't help but see her as a ridiculous panto character. She honestly thinks the various women's campaigning groups like FPFW are one woman outfits and a bot army funded by some shadowy US cabal.

Mimmymum gives me proper secondhand cringe. Can’t imagine how her kid is gonna feel in 5-10 years when they look back at mother’s ‘activism’

(And yes, I know I’m late back to the party, but the new ‘notifications’ tab showed me this thread again)

Pretending that Nicola Williams is obtaining money, in order to undermine the equality act, rather than to uphold it, is seriously out of line. I hope she sues.

Same old same old really.

Mimmymum is surely one of the most successful peakers, maybe after McKinnon and Yaniv.

Its brilliant news. Achieved target. With the average donation being thirty two quid.

No half a million pounds of lottery money, no government funding. Just ordinary women and men horrified that safeguarding and women's and children's rights are being erased.

Just giving this thread a gentle nudge as the crowdfunder page says there's only one day left to accept donations.

Ah, thanks for the reminder. Happy to help pay a small portion of Nic Williams' very well deserved salary. Dug.

This is why I will not donate to Children in need or Comic relief. I do my homework and make sure my small contributions go to organisations that do actually help vulnerable women and children.

Yes she doesn’t get allot of engagement, nor do mermaids. Obviously people can buy followers 👀

The other weird thing about Helen is that her Twitter account purports to have 14 thousand followers, yet her rants get more attention here than they do on Twitter, a smattering of likes and replies here and there, and often retweets herself. She’s either fading into irrelevance or those followers aren’t exactly genuine.

Escape - yes JJ has been particularly boring today that's for sure

See, singlewhiteguineapig, I am.glad there are nice people like you who still think like that. I mean that with no sarcasm. I am very jaded and have no patience at all with her myself, but that's a genuinely generous thing of you to say.

I think I'm going to start donations every time jj bores the tits off people on threads and boy is jj boring a lot, so it's a good job I can't go anywhere for the next four weeks to spend my dark money elsewhere.

Doesn’t mimmymum have a trans kid? She has a vested interest in gender ideology being real and tarnishing the names of those who resist it. She needs to believe in gender.

Fair Play for Women are my go to source of science based info. I use their links all the time on social media and to family and friends.
Having done all this work voluntary over the last few years, whilst still in her job I totally get why a paid role is necessary. Dr Nic is a fantastic representative of women and girls and I'm now off to make another donation.

I feel sad for her, she spends a huge amount of her time online being extremely angry. I wonder if she just stopped for a while, she may realise that we have a point. The complete denial of concerns and never ending hateful messages suggest that she may have some personal problems. I used to follow her on Twitter but had to stop reading her posts as they were so extreme and made me feel uneasy. I wish her some happiness and peace at some point in her life.

I can't help but see her as a ridiculous panto character. She honestly thinks the various women's campaigning groups like FPFW are one woman outfits and a bot army funded by some shadowy US cabal.

I suspect her overheated imagination and disconnect with reality is a result of spending all her life on Twitter, getting head pats from all the creeps who enjoy the anime porn on there when they're not salivating over threats to Jo Rowling, because the real world consequences of mimsy's 'work' are a whole load of kids, including her own, deeply wounded by her sexist, close minded foolishness and need for personal celebrity.

She almost has no option but to throw herself into her rich fantasy world. I would feel sorry for her if I were a better person. But I'm really not, so I'm honestly just laughing at her ridiculous clowning.

Is that "gender critical darning money"...?

I mean, I know quite a lot of feminists who are good a wide range of things, but I'm not sure darning is particularly a gender critical campaign.

Omg! She's so over invested!

Clearly is worried about something. Must be all the subconscious guilt over years of confusing and gaslighting young kids.

Whoops, finger slippage, another donation....

Dun dun duuuuuun.

She's nuts

No one is seething. Snort.

Nic has just been at the Royal Courts of Justice supporting a woman getting a judicial review.

Activism. Not sitting on Twitter arsing around.
