A twitter account is saying that stickers in Manchester Oxford Road station have razor blades behind them put there by TERFS. If you are terfblocked you won't be able to view.

...hmm, not sure I really thought that post through.

thebewilderness · 07/09/2018 22:06

Congrats, Tool. Hope all is well with you and tiny tool.

The suggested name Stanley makes me chuckle so much it might delay me getting off to sleep tonight.

HawkeyeInConfusion · 07/09/2018 22:41

Congratulations Toolshed.

How cute that the first person to respond to Erin's tweet was one of Aimee Challenors friends, linked on keybase (for all those lovely private chats) and no boubt numerous other sites.

Errghhhhh. Get ready for this shite.

Jess fucking Bradley has tweeted.

"hearing that theres been anti trans "feminist" stickers w/ razor blades stuck under them at mcr oxford road - not only is this a tactic borrowed direct from neo-nazis but displays a remarkable lack of thought for the cleaners, mostly women, who will end up taking them down :("

"Jess" - it's bullshit. But how's your alleged website which allegedly depicts the rape of a child cartoon character going? And allegedly your own penis in public places? Not too well? Aww. Poor you.

UpstartCrow · 08/09/2018 00:26

Yes but as that shows, every boak inducing tweet creates the opportunity for humorous responses. So we still have that going for us.

AssassinatedBeauty · 08/09/2018 00:27

Bradley has presumably been reading this thread and lifted the thought about the cleaners being female. Can't imagine they'd have ever realised that for themselves.

Not to mention that there is zero evidence of this actually happening!

FloralBunting · 08/09/2018 00:31

Assassinated, I had exactly the same thought.

FlintyBadman · 08/09/2018 00:46

I was about to tweet that Jess wasn't thinking of the female cleaners when they were wanking over their desk but someone beat me to it.

FloralBunting · 08/09/2018 00:57

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

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

tillytop · 08/09/2018 03:41

Yaay, a baby toolshed! Congratulations. Bear Flowers

tillytop · 08/09/2018 03:55

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. Brew Flowers

Apropos of nothing, the bear trap outside my house is the size of a ford galaxy and entirely humane Grin 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.

tillytop · 08/09/2018 05:29

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.

UndercoverGC · 08/09/2018 08:19

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.

FlintyBadman · 08/09/2018 09:51

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.

arranfan · 08/09/2018 09:52

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...

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

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.

BettyDuMonde · 08/09/2018 14:11

Aw, not ‘Stanleyetta’ then?

Congrats on your new coercively assigned feminist at birth!

FloralBunting · 08/09/2018 14:11

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