I am hoping to if I am feeling better - crappy cold, and hope the weather holds.

I do love squirrels.

PurgatoryOfPotholes · 22/06/2022 11:10

The squirrels are doing the conga now, you're missing out!

Unless the squirrels are also multitasking by dismissing the significance of organised child abuse, I'm not interested. I want an orchestra of squirrels, too!

'Debacle'. Another word that has been redefined.

A characteristic of trans ideology is that some people have no other way of deflecting a threat to their mindset, other than claim that the threat is not really a threat at all.

IcakethereforeIam · 22/06/2022 11:13

Are they purple and green or purple or green? I mean I'm interested either way.

extract
Purple squirrel is a term used by employment recruiters to describe a job candidate with precisely the right education, set of experience, and range of qualifications that perfectly fits a job's requirements.[1] The implication is that over-specification of the requirements makes a perfect candidate as hard to find as a purple squirrel.[2]While in theory, this prized "purple squirrel" could immediately handle all the expansive variety of responsibilities of a job description with no training, and would allow businesses to function with fewer workers,[3][4][5][6] it is commonly asserted that the effort seeking them is often wasted.[7][8] and that being more open to candidates that don't have all the skills, or retraining existing employees, are sensible alternatives to an over-long search.[2][9]

The multicoloured Indian Giant Squirrel

It's the closest to purple I can find.

I do find it funny when ppl turn up to scold us about our “associations”

whilst being quite happy to support ppl who tweet rape & death threats to women on a regular basis & who turn up to hurl abuse at a 12 year old child

Ereshkigalangcleg · 22/06/2022 11:28

How cool is that squirrel!

This! With bells on!!

Ereshkigalangcleg · 22/06/2022 11:32

Ask yourself why there were protestors there with signs calling her 'racist trash?

I have. I concluded they are simply a band of misogynistic, inadequate men who get a hard on from abusing women, like so many misogynistic, inadequate men. And this gives a veneer to hide this misogyny by attacking women who are considered fair game for abuse.

I took 'purple green' as a Babylon 5 reference. 😊

As for the rest, remember Phillipa Black being in biological facts jail?

I write this from jail. My cellie is in for putting up a “humans are mammals” sticker. Big Val across the hall was caught in possession of a “People have opposable thumbs” decal, which finished off a family of five. Me? I’m here because of the pink penis caper. Hundreds died.

Life is tough here in biological facts sticker jail. They’re weaning me off stickers with small bits of sellotape, one inch per day. One day I may be part of society again. At night though I still hear the screams of my victims, and my hands itch for novelty adhesives

There's also the 'both sides' deflection, though strangely it's usually just one side that has the evidence. The other side claims to have evidence but it's always unavoidable detained; it's triggering, or the dog ate it, or photoshop can't make it convincing.

Something, something, designer of transflag, something, something.

Oh give over! She clearly meant the misogynistic men at the event on Sunday.

And there are lots of women who are fighting for women’s rights (using their real names and putting themselves in the public eye) who weren’t at JKR’s lunch!!

RufusthefIoraImissingreindeer · 22/06/2022 11:47

I really never understand why malicious derailing isn't considered 'not in the spirit' by mumsnet

IcakethereforeIam · 22/06/2022 11:48

If I ever need a character reference for someone, I'd definitely ask a violent misogynist to write it (badly) on a piece of cardboard he'd probably ripped from his home.

motogirl · 22/06/2022 11:48

No I wasn't there but what is it with naked cyclists in Bristol. Dp saw 3 yesterday during the daytime.!

BernardBlackMissesLangCleg · 22/06/2022 11:50

Why does KJK bring out the frothers to quite this degree?

i think it’s her hair, it is excellent

they never seem to engage with what she actually says (no receipts here for example for the accusations being thrown around), so I can only assume it’s for superficial reasons

Amazing squirrel upthread by the way

IcakethereforeIam · 22/06/2022 12:15

Deflect, deflect....

Incidentally, if you see any racism on this forum you should definitely report it. Right wing, not my cuppa, but it's a valid political persuasion. In this country it's often called conservatism.

I wonder? They should know KJK loves it when they get riled up, it's how she know she is winning.
