Oh FFS! I was just about to put the dogs to bed and head up to my own bed, then you go and tease me like that!

S1naidSucks · 03/08/2019 00:03

But I don’t do twitter. Sad

Terfing · 03/08/2019 00:38

When did this happen?

FloralBunting · 03/08/2019 00:52

I am rolling about laughing at the brilliant play here. Loving the forthright cliffhanger fun. Keep it up!

Bespin · 03/08/2019 00:59

is it the usual did 8 people turn up hold some banner and then go home?

2BthatUnnoticed · 03/08/2019 01:50

S1naidSucks · 03/08/2019 11:01

peeps into thread. Notes OP is absent and wanders off, sulking ☹️

MinnieTheSphinx · 03/08/2019 11:01

Doubtless another 'a tiny handful of transphobes turned up, weren't welcomed by anyone, including the lesbians we claim to support but as usual that means lesbians aren't welcome at (insert name of event)' type story.

Still no update?

2BthatUnnoticed · 03/08/2019 11:41

FloralBunting · 03/08/2019 11:44

So amused at the goady wankers who can't quite disguise that they're just as curious as the rest of us.🤣
