(Also, can just anyone start a Bunbury thread or do you have to be a Weighty Feminist? Apologies if so, I will retreat tugging my forelock.)

Someone mentioned the cornet. Can I bagsy the kettle drum?

Let A Woman Speak

speech concludes:
"I support the rights of women and girls. Men do not belong in female spaces. A woman cannot have a penis and I am not afraid to speak the truth.
Now I would normally end my speech here, but because I've mentioned the Nazis three times I'm actually allowed to identify as
Churchill now.

So, if you'll indulge me?
Even though large tracts of feminism and many old and famous institutions have fallen or may fall into the drip of the trans cult and all the odious apparatus of identity politics. We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight for our schools. We shall fight on the social media platforms. We shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the newspapers.
We shall defend our sex whatever the cost may be. We'll fight for our refuges, we will fight for the changing rooms. We shall fight for the pools and on the sports fields.
We shall fight for the lavatories.
We shall never surrender"

Well there's certainly enough bloody rain around today AnyOldPrion (sitting in knickers after getting soaked walking the dog this morning).

Good to see the reappearance of Madam Bunbury today

He that hath a penis is not a woman, and she that hath no penis is definitely not less than a man.

FIRST WITCH: When shall we three meet again?
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
SECOND WITCH: When the hurlyburly's done,
When the battle's lost and won.
THIRD WITCH: That will be ere the set of sun.
FIRST WITCH: Where the place?
SECOND WITCH: Upon Hampstead Heath.
THIRD WITCH: There to meet with ManFriday.

Germaine Bunbury in the style of William Shakespeare.

joins in with thumb owl noises...

Mainly came on to see whether this was Feminishm or the Naughty Step, but while I'm here I'm going to make an enormous farty sound with this kitchen roll tube.

Musical freedom feared by dictators. And #mehtoo to threads (e.g. Stanniland GC) started by totalitarian regimes

I reckon we're edging towards 6

On the subject of plants, if anyone fancies doing a little late night end of the month gardening, the deadline for tending a certain Apple tree is first thing tomorrow morning.

The Common Polypody grows well in stone walls. So do Aubretia, and Campanula, and Creeping Jenny. Oh, and Valerian.

Lots of green shoots on all of those at this time of the year.

But best for our purposes might be sycamore saplings, and ivy.

Galvantula · 29/05/2021 20:19

I've got 2 guitars that I can play about 8 1/2 chords on quite badly? 🎸

My workplace is Stonewall mad. I bet they cling on for ages. 😣

Lots of green shoots at the moment for sure though 😊🌱

Thelnebriati · 29/05/2021 19:34

I might knit a Bunbury temperature scarf.

GAHgamel · 29/05/2021 19:28

I've nudged up slightly to a 4.1. The EHRC and ACAS dropouts from the Diversity Champions scheme is a good sign, and the results coming back in from the FOI may prove an interesting foundation for more work. Also still smiling at the to-ing and fro-ing about one FOI submission not being able to progress being subverted by the choice of Mx as a title by the submitter.

JustcameoutGC · 29/05/2021 09:00

Wow, took me a while to find this, thought it had gone poof.

What the hell has @stonecat been up to. I am pretty sure at least one of the deletions was totally innocuous. Are they now deleting people and everything they have ever written?

Latest news.
EHRC and ACAS severe ties with Stonewall
Stonewall CEO goes full apocalypse now and compares those with gender critical views to anti semites on the BBC.

So how about a Bunbury temp check

1 we are all doomed and ladydicks are definitely a thing

10 Yeah the adults are here, no, you can't a change sex and here are some lovely 3rd spaces so everyone should be happy.

I think I am nudging upwards
What needs to happen next? (one of my previous predictions came true)
Nancy Kelly interviewed on live telly and asked the Staniland q

BlackeyedSusan · 23/05/2021 16:58

Great. Though there has been aibu sunlight more often too. 😎

HecatesCatsInFancyHats · 23/05/2021 11:17

It's more the newspaper & Twitter sunlight. Just basking in it for a while.

BlackeyedSusan · 23/05/2021 11:16

No sun here. Pretty sunrise though.

I will wander over to aibu to look.

BlackeyedSusan · 23/05/2021 11:01

There's a good in in Corona virus too...the Yorkshire varient. Not that you'd expect it over there...

HecatesCatsInFancyHats · 23/05/2021 10:45

If you want a giggle head over to the I just farted in my surgeons face thread. My sides are hurting.

FannyCann · 22/05/2021 07:45

The sun is shining brightly over in AIBU, it's a sunny day!

SelfPortraitWithEels · 21/05/2021 19:29
