She’s inspired my new username. Sorry just had to share. I love her interactions with Dame Katy Denise too. The women on our side have been through a lot but so many retain their sense of humour, I suppose you have to really. It also reminds me of the days when MN was described as a radicalisation portal, was that a few years ago?

Bit of a lighter thread, feel free to share any other laughs Smile

So funny. She runs rings round any tra

UtopiaPlanitia · 27/06/2024 00:03

She's so bloody witty 😂 - I'd dearly love to have her pithy sense of humour and excellent way with words 😍

The awesomeness of JKR, I know a song about that...
(Apologies to ABBA)

Kier's lied to women since I don't know when
JK made up her mind it must come to an end
Look at her now, will she ever learn
I don't know how, but she's totally in control
There's a fire within her soul

And I can hear a bell ring
One more "cis" and I might have to scream

JK Rowling, here she goes again
JK, She's every woman's sister
JK Rowling, queen of our resistance
JK please don't ever let this go

I do think raising toddlers to adulthood requires that kind of attitude. It's the same dark grey humour that leads to threads like cutted up pear and the like. What have you done to annoy your toddler today?

We're somewhat used to terrorist demands, name calling and the sound of tiny feet drumming on the floor.

I'm not on Twitter, but when Musk allowed non members a bit more accessibility, I saw a lot of Katie Denise's posts.

And one thing's for sure, once you've seen those, you're left in absolutely no doubt whatsoever about AGP.

And the sheer number of men with it.

It's really enlightening.

Fukuraptor · 27/06/2024 08:52

She is the author who created Fred and George Weasley after all 😂

I'm not on twitter either but I can read it using nitter.

Thank you JKR for the stunning humour you bring to this abominable situation. What an absolute treasure. I hope you know how much your words and actions have helped me to be braver in speaking out.

MarieDeGournay · 27/06/2024 10:20

They used to say feminists are 'humourless'😂

Humour is our keenest weapon - logic, science, reason and appeals to fairness are useless against TRAs - and JK's wit is unparalleled.

And since she was recently threatened in Gaelic😡, here's an antidote to that:
Togha mná! Molaim go h-ard na spéire thú.

Ooh thank you. I wonder who dame Katie is in real life. He/she is very funny and wildly creative.

DialSquare · 27/06/2024 12:08

I'd love to know who Dame Katy is too. She does remind me of Titania McGrath so wonder if it's Andrew Doyle.

Is Dame K not a parody account? I'm not on Twitter either so have only ever heard about the Dame from chats and threads on here.

How does it show up AGP if it's a fake account? Do they link to real ones? Sorry, just curious! I do love the humour when people put it up on these threads, I have to say. It's still not enough to persuade me to join Twitter. It seems like a mad cess pit from the outside looking in! 😬

Redshoeblueshoe · 27/06/2024 12:22

Yes Dame K is a parody account. CaveMum that post is perfect for this thread thanks

RadicalisedPastThePointOfSalvation · 27/06/2024 12:29

@INeedAPensieve i think whoever is behind Dame Katy is in actual online groups where these men are. I’ve included an example tweet. You can’t see the 4 pictures in full, but that’s probably for the best.

I have a strong suspicion who Dame Katy is, but I won’t post it so as to not draw any unintended scrutiny towards them.

Onetransphobicmother · 27/06/2024 12:48

I can't believe the transphobia against Dr Dame Katie on this thread. She's a real womxn!
In Dame Katie you can sail the seven seas
With Dame Katie there's no chair poverty
With Dame Katie no one has to stand
Oh Dame Katie she's really not a man
In Dame Katie xx

Edited

It looks to me like dame Katie is on some kind of trans dating site. And he posts pictures of these men, and invents names for them.

all very piss takey. But it does show up AGP for the prevalent issue it is.

IdgieThreadgoodeIsMyHeroine · 30/06/2024 16:21

I assume Dame Katie is Julie Bindel- she mentioned "her" in a recent tweet. Based on their interactions, the person behind it is clearly good friends with JKR.
