Dark and stormies all round! Bluestocking piss up

[QuentinSummers]

A friendly place for feminist or general chit chat. Welcome all!

Nae probs.

I refuse to believe the Bluestocking ever runs out of cake.

I think some calming tea is in order though there might be a few people who'd like something stronger.

I need some chamomile tea tonight, desperately.

one quick one, then must be off to bed.

Ill have a chamomile tea too please. I met up with an old friend at the weekend and his lovely daughter has had a double mastectomy and started on testosterone since I last saw them. I feel sick. And guilty - if I’d spoken up last year when she had blue hair and wavering pronouns, maybe I could have sown a doubt before it was too late.

Fern, that’s so sad

You can’t blame yourself

I’ve had an Earl Grey Tea this morning, and have an unexpected day off, due to a hiccup in work rota, but happy with that as travelling tomorrow for a fortnight away, and not yet packed!

Oh Fern, I can only imagine the sadness, but it don’t think that anything you could have said would have changed the outcome. 💐

Oh fern that's tragic I've just watched my 29yr old DD cycle off to the gym for a yoga session. Tonight she's off to the boyfriends flat. 20yrs ago she insisted, persistently, she was really a boy, changed her name etc. She grew out of it.

All those feisty GNC girls being told they must be boys

I'll have a large glass of anything alcoholic.

She’s only just turned 20. (And the relief of being able to say ‘she’, if only online - I’ve been doing my best with ‘he’ all weekend for their sakes but I can’t do it fluently because I just don’t believe it).

I refuse to believe the Bluestocking ever runs out of cake.

Not while I'm alive. tbh, the amount of fruit cake that I have ageing - same is true for a good while after my death.

Shame! Shame! Shame!

What are you having Tinsel?

Gin please. A bucket of.

Make that 2 buckets please, barkeep.

Ooh Tea don't mind if I do.

Has everyone had a peaceful day?

Crazy day here. I’ve mostly had to work instead of MNing
