I was thinking about how all these companies are jumping on the woke train. They must think, somehow, that it's good for business. Probably as a result of blue haired losers on twatter screaming at them that they'll be 'cancelled' if they don't.

But then I thought, hang on, I've spent extra money this week as a direct result of my desire to support JKR and those who have stood with her. And I bet I'm not the only one.

So, I thought it might be interesting to have a thread on it.

So far, my extra "I support JKR" spending is as follows:

Harry Potter fabric fat quarters £4.99 x 3
Harry Potter pyjamas £3.99 x 2
Harry Potter duvet set £8.99
Harry Potter cushion £4.99 x 2

(God bless the Aldi middle aisle!)

The book 'Rain' by Melissa Harrison, as a direct result in her tweeting support for JKR. £8.99.

Future likely spending:

Additional books by Melissa Harrison if I like this one. Roughly £8 each.

Tickets for the HP studio tour when it reopens (been twice, would probably have gone again at some point but this has motivated me to bring it forward). 2x adult tickets = £94.

Harry Potter books, house covers editions, hardback. Approx £15 each x 4 (only ones available) = £60.

So, current total spend = £50.91

Projected future spend = £180

Gonna try my boys with Harry Potter again.

Ordered ‘My Body is Me’ from Transgender Trend as an indirect result.

Not bought but done:
Joined Twitter (could say I have sold - my soul) just to support her, and I’m following Maya Forstater on LinkedIn.
Come back on here.

The irony of Audible, that much of its top 10 are Potter books.
Their TRA Twitter intern must be spitting feathers.

Although Audible still hasn't replied to any of my communications.

I donate to Vancouver Rape Relief sometimes, since they were defunded for refusing to centre penis. Will make sure the next one is in her name. I expect she would approve.

Good call about the Kelly Holmes charity and message too.

Bought the illustrated version of The Goblet of Fire and the first Strike book. I emailed her office to say thank you and have emailed BoJo and my MP to explain my opposition to self-ID.

Wish I could get some HP fat quarters though. No Aldi round here
