So... if I drink from a mug with a dinosaur on it at work, or have a dinosaur emoji on my status etc etc

[MsFogi]

Will that now be a subtle signal to my fellow GC sisters? I do hope so, I can't wait to see lots of dinosaurs being sported by women out and about - anyone complaining about a woman with a dinosaur is simply going to look batshit crazy . (Although just to be clear I do talk about this a lot in rl but not so much at work but generally think that the more women who don't yet speak out about this can see how many others are GC the better and I suspect that the "GC Dinosaur" may just be our Bat Signal")

@RedDogsBeg

Midgedude, if I ever meet you at a dinosaur protest, I'm buying you a drink!

Me too, that comment was gold, pure gold.

Getting in the ‘buy midge a drink’ queue

@nonotmenosiree It's amazing what the chilling effect will do, isn't it? Women being threatened with being hounded out of employment, reported to the Police, doxxed, threatened on social media etc etc having to resort to secret signals/symbols in order to interact with people who hold the same (legal, rational) views.

It's a real mind fuck.

I have a dinosaur dress. I shall wear it regularly and spend all of my time looking for meaningful eye contact

I love love love the dog whistle btw. Whose genius is that? Is it Posie?

Yep, Posie

I would like a dinosaur wooly hat.

The dog whistle

Haha, just got an email from Etsy saying the dinosaur earrings I like have nearly sold out. 1 pair left and in six baskets - who will be the triumphant MNer?

@Binglebong the t rex ones?

@midgedude is going to be paralytic at the next Coven meeting

Yikes, can it be a multi day event ?

Or I can just take a bottle of highland park ?

We shall each of us buy you a bottle of highland park, bring a big car.

Love the dog whistle.

Yep im down with the highland park idea

Your post was well worth it 😀

I am definitely down to chip in on a bottle of Highland Park instead of a glass of whatever!

Some gorgeous ones here

Another dinosaur hat! www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334093876893?hash=item4dc98bfe9d:g:5BoAAOSw6vJhApHd

Yes! Rather regret not having got them actually.

I want that stegosaurus hat.

@NoNotMeNoSiree

Then people on here deny dogwhistles exist 🙄 If you wanted an example of what one is, this thread is a perfect one. Buying something with dinosaurs on in the hope of '' signalling'' to others about your views, Then if it turns out they don't hold them it'd be like' 'don't be silly, what are you on about, I just like dinosaurs!' '

Do you mean like when Magdalen Berns died and Rachel McKinnon posted a gif of someone dancing on a grave on Twitter, much to the amusement of many TRAs, and then when people called Rachel out at doing something so disgusting, Rachel said 'don't be silly, it's for Friday 13th!'

Like that?

Not denying dog whistles exist - you can get one here;

brilliant!

May I suggest a Shinysaurus ?

@Thefartingsofaofdenmarkstreet I just wanted to acknowledge what a truly excellent post this was.

Meant to quote your post above re: Friday 13th dogwhistle.

Sainsburys have dinosaur shirts. They are called "

Christmas Blue Dinosaur Conversational Shirt" ( but they're not particularly Christmassy, but very dinosaury) tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/Christmas-Blue-Dinosaur-Conversational-Shirt/139743191-Navy

Now I am very pleased with my username.

Thinking of getting this mug - seems appropriate:
