Nottingham Die-In on 16 August

Anybody?

This movement really does feed off itself in the most unhealthy way, creating paranoia, fearfulness and division.

Will they all have scruffy cardboard signs? "Trans Dead are Dead", "JKR Hates Dead People", "Dead Rights are Human Rights" or "Decapitate Live People"? I might pop down and walk across the Square, accidentally whacking a few corpses with my walking stick as I go. After all, if they're dead I can't get done for assault, can I?

They’d need the stewards to make sure nobody trips over any of them.

Dominoodles · 14/08/2025 10:24

So they pretend to be dead, presumably suggesting that they committed suicide over 'transphobia'?

Isn't that like, a big red flag for an abuser? 'If you don't do what I want you to do then I'll kill myself'

Pre event.
The Dye-in.
Everyone shares a bottle of Manic Panic Rockabilly Blue.

At least they’re not planning a piss-in.

Depends how long they are planning on lying there in those body bags.

Nottingham Trip Hazard! I hope they put down cones.

Well when I looked on twitter I couldn't find anything about it but there was an extinction rebellion die-in and a Ukraine die-in both in Nottingham in the last couple of years.

They just laid all all over the floor.

Which could be interesting if no one has thought to check about the beach event.

I also looked it up and found that one of the previous die-ins (different cause) involved laying on the floor for a grand total of 37 minutes 😂

Igmum · 14/08/2025 14:29

To be fair I often feel like a rest and a nice lie down after shopping. Can you bring mattresses?

I do hope it rains. A lot.

The only toilets reasonably near are in Wetherspoons.

Marks isn’t too far. And will give them an interesting dilemma. Join the massive queue for the ladies, or you know. Nip in the gents.

There are public toilets just off the square up an alleyway.

Toddlerteaplease · 14/08/2025 14:39

What is a die in?

You lie on the ground like a plank (sic).

Except that in the screenshot of the event ad upthread, they’re all in bags / shrouds with flowers on top.

I thought they were closed? Or am I remembering the old underground ones in the square…

Toddlerteaplease · 14/08/2025 17:48

@myplaceno, these are newer. They used to be spotless and well maintained. Not so much anymore!

I recall being ‘kettled’ by this lot during one of their massive whinge-fests. The stench of them still lingers in my nostrils.🤮 Can’t imagine it being particularly pleasant for the general public on a hot sunny day.

As they've been banned from bathrooms, they can't have a bath, so it's not their fault.

MrsOvertonsWindow · 14/08/2025 20:38

NeverOneBiscuit · 14/08/2025 08:06

I wonder what the imaginary cause of death will be?

Validation denial syndrome?

Testes hystericus ?

Oppositional Toilet Disorder ?

Cause of death - "Oppositional Toilet Disorder"

😂😂😂

It’s a game of Sleeping Lions, but for teenagers rather than Year 1s

I;m not worried. At some point they will have to get up and go to the pub home.

Back to mummy and daddy and their cuddly toys

There are only two lions in Slab Square. (Those who know Nottingham will understand this.)

JumpingPumpkin · 14/08/2025 22:33

Oh what a shame I’m away at the moment. This sounds hilarious!

And for some reason it's allllll about the left lion. Quite what the right lion has done to never be picked is beyond me.
