Still Blue, Still Stocking: The Bluestocking remains open in 2021

I've been freestyling feministing for years but have started to read a bit more recently. Partly to keep up with the terrifying DD. Bit of entry level with Invisible Women and Difficult Women. DD has bought Jenni Murray's book and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichi and is drumming her nails impatiently for me to finish Invisible Women..

Aha, Radical Notions! I was searching on Radical Motions and finding nothing

I reckon broccoli toasties might be ok with copious amounts of cheese.
My DD has been reading my Radical Notions. She has become terrifying. She wants me to get an undercut and stop wearing make up ..

Not too convinced by broccoli toasties either. Even the camel's not sure.
I would like a pint of lager shandy, a bag of prawn cocktail crisps and some feminist reading recommendations please and thank you.

Invisible Women! Not Bodies! D'oh!!

Grumpy, I suggest you stand well upwind of the poor beast for the time being. Could have been worse, I s'pose. Broccoli toasties, whatever next...

I have an extensive library of GC books, and it looks like she's been having a browse. 🤔😉

And, my copies of Radical Motion have been moved around

So there is hope!

sorry about the Branston jar lid oops

@AutumnCrocus, can you leave a few GC articles lying about for the blue-haired woke-one?

And I have learned something very valuable from this thread: avoid hoovers with blue hair.

Incidentally, someone left the Brantons lying about with the lid off, and, er, the camel has been treating it like a mineral lick and most of it has gone.

Broccoli toastie . I'd like a goat's cheese and onion marmalade one if that doesn't sound too much trouble. And a foaming pint of ale to wash it down with!

that is sounding hopeful autumn.

I like broccoli, I like toasties... but...

Wokescold DD has admitted to reading my copy of Invisible Bodies, and says it is "interesting" and there is lots of stuff she'd never even thought about.
Sunlight is shining.

Oooh a toastie! I really fancy one, now.

I'd love a cheese and branston toastie

Oddly enough - somebody gave me a 4kg tub of Branstons - so if I didn't use enough for your taste, feel free to add more.

DH is trying to convince me to try out a broccoli toastie recipe he saw in a newspaper. I'm trying to be civil.

It was a year or so ago, the chap was called Jaison

I know what my six month separated twin was watching (I watched a bit as well) and it was bad enough on a 48 inch screen!
But I agree, it did seem to be unfair to the women, tbh.

Not sure it wants watching on a huge UHD screen 😱😱😱

Just nipping in for a quick G&T on my way home from work. I'd love a cheese and branston toastie please @EmbarrassingAdmissions I'll mix you up a nice toddy and I'll stick that programme @AutumnCrocus was watching on on the big telly in the lounge :)

I can scatter some snacks about the place including toasties if you get your orders in - I've just stopped for the night and could do with decluttering my mind.

A good, non-alcoholic toddy of some sort would be very good for me around now while I put the toasties together.

Ooooo AutumnCrocus. Think I might come and join you and lazy if I may. Afraid I've eaten all the chocolate but I do have some Doritos?

Popping in for a swift half please

Been piquing the interest of a few people lately which I’m quite pleased with. One or two of which have big mouths on them so I think will spread the word!

Well that's an interesting development, AutumnCrocus! I'll join you in a large G&T. Of course if TWAW and TMAM, how could it possibly matter or be unfair, whatever beardy bloke has in his pants...? Because we're not supposed to care what genitals people have when we choose a sexual partner, right? I hope your wokescold is seeing the light!

Ooh small amount of sunlight on woke DD blue haired wokescoldary!

We watched a bit of a certain late night, naked prog. (please don't judge!)

Beardy Bloke appeared, looking at apparently het women, usual stuff, but when it got to him stripping off, he was actually not. a. bloke.

D D thought this was "unfair" to the women on the show.

We've had some interesting conversations, since.

(She also seems to have been reading some of my GC feminist books, from the way they have been re arranged.)

Can I have a very large G and T, please.

I always had upright hoovers before, Grumpy, but I was seduced by his smiling face and blue hair. I think you're right - I need to go back to an upright.

I would like a glass of rose please. Pretending that it is summer and I am on holiday somewhere warm
