Courting the far right is wrong....

[OneTimeThing]

...if you follow that with a ‘but’ to justify Posie Parker’s courting of the far right, then you are a fascist.

I said I would only post one thing on this board. I kept that promise.

But this is the pits right here. Posie Parker is seeking funding and making deals with white supremacist, crypto fascists, misogynists, homophobes and racists. How does this not show you what your movement is and has always been?

You need to look at yourselves. If your response is anything other than total rejection of posie Parker and all the groups she is involving herself with, then you are just as bad. If you think that trans people/‘trans activists’ are worse than Tommy Robinson, ultra trump supporters and others who spew far right views then you are a racist, sexist, homophobic nightmare. Those labels equally describe what a person is as well as what a person does.

“But what about TRA’s?” Some of you will want to scream at me.

You don’t see Paris Lees going off to get funding from literal fascists. Hell, Caitlin Jenner votes for trump and the global trans community has never and will never forgive her. And either way, none of what “they” do will magically make it okay to go suck up to people that think gay people should be sterilised or that Muslim’s are evil.

Transphobia is revolting. It’s wrong, and it comes as no surprise to hear that transphobia (which most of you peddle right here) will eventually push people towards other kinds of hate.

Take a long hard look at yourselves. I’m a transgender woman, a mum, and I hope at least some of you are seriously thinking about what kind of person you want to be.

I've always been part of the "humans must consume food and water in order to remain alive" movement. Controversial, I know.

According to the Wikipedia description: "Camp Coffee is a brown liquid"

I think that's pretty accurate.

Marmalade.....
Do you want traditional orange with bits in?

Op, people are allowed to NOT agree with you. Women ARE allowed to talk.
Trans phobia is not women trying to protect their own spaces and equality.

Not everything is about YOU !!

Have a word with yourself.

He wants orange, I had assumed the bits were mandatory? Still have horrible memories of those from childhood.

According to the Wikipedia description: "Camp Coffee is a brown liquid"

I think that's pretty accurate.

🤣

I would say that actually the whole issue - GC/Self-id - has made me consider far more what people are saying on individual issues, as it's really demonstrated how easily people can be silenced if their views aren't seen to align with what is currently politically right-on.

It is very easy for people to be branded as bigots in an effort to silence their voices. It happened in Rotherham, it's happening with GC women, it happened to many Brexit voters (and I say that as a remainer), and it will continue to happen on a raft of issues unless we look more at the nuance of what people are actually saying and why.

I'm pretty sure with today's technology they can remove the bits.
Robertson's is the brand Paddington actually uses.
Rose's do a fine cut lime marmalade which isn't horrible.

Lost for words.....

Maybe I'll tell him to go with Robertson's then. I liked the lime one better as a child, but since he fell in love with the idea via the films...

(Bloody marketing)

Boiled eggs. Pot of cold water, bring to rapid boil. Turn off the heat, cover and let sit for 4 minutes.

lisamuggeridge, when I was young I used to go and stay with my beloved great aunt. She’d give me cornflakes with ice cream for breakfast which I adored.

Clearly I think ice cream for breakfast is a sensible idea.

The thing about being a woman is that you spend most of your life with people telling you what sort of person they think you should be. The OP is only the latest in a long line, so forgive us if we’re not inspired by the novelty.

You looked up Camp coffee on Wikipedia?

Wikipedia is constantly being edited by activists.
Be careful there.

big Tesco

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

We say big Tesco! Also, posh telly and lesser telly.

I've decided that I want to be a sweary, snarky bastard. It's going rather well so far!

Well sane and in nodding distance of reality comes quite high on my list.

Am horrified by the militarisation of toast. And am now craving boiled eggs. Soft. All yolky inside. Mmmm.

Is own brand Nutella as good as proper Nutella?

This is a vital question when considering Nutella hot chocolate.

Careful, ladies. The Monitors are no doubt busy reporting all this breakfast talk as uncivil and not in the spirit...

(Off to make a nice quesadilla myself and sprinkle a little Cholula sauce on it. )

"Deleted for talking about marmalade" would be the most hilarious internet achievement ever.

Now I feel like Russian cheesecake

Maybe you'll pass as a cheesecake but you will never really be one.

After watching the Paddington Bear films (bless) DH has decided that he must try marmalade. Which I, the official Brit in the relationship, don't like. Which brand should I tell him to try?

If he is a really big Paddington fan she should make his own - but the season for seville oranges will be over soon.

Don't encourage him!

I identify as being right all the time.

Please validate me.

I can go one step further.

Blancmange is evil.

sorry, he should make his own! (genuine and unfortunate typo in the context of the board and thread, but not meant to imply anything)
