Indeed. Why do we care more about property than people?

I’m increasingly inclined to think that AI is evil.

If you want to know where we’re at now … Trans Reddit now understands how legislation works better than many of our actual legislators 🤦‍♀️

Oh @Morrisons I'd only just discovered your glorious mango and coconut ice lollies – absolutely gorgeous: you can taste the coconut milk – and now they are gone. WHY??? The new Pistachio & Creme are as disgusting as their name implies. Ugh.

Even among students (exposed to so much propaganda and peer pressure on this issue), a decisive majority disagree with males using women's changing rooms (and vice versa). Great to see the question asked really clearly by @HEPI_news (so often not the case in polling this topic). Interesting given that universities' failure to uphold EA2010 seems to be driven by fear of (perceived) student opinion. Yet this polling demonstrates that most students quietly disagree with their activist/NUS peers. I'd love to see further breakdown of the numbers, e.g. Russell Group vs other students @nickhillman

Men will say “she knew what she was doing” about a 14-year-old girl but “he made a mistake” about a grown man. That’s not confusion. That’s misogyny.

FACT: Female victims who kill in SELF DEFENSE will spend an average of 15 years behind bars Men who kill their female partners serve ,on average, between 2 and 6 years behind bars...

Excellent summary.

A paedophile who changed gender while in prison for sexually abusing their own daughter as a child and sending explicit photos of her to perverts online has been quietly released back into the community. Claire Fox, 61, who was previously known as Clive Bundy, who has six kids, served just seven years of a 15-year jail sentence, before being settled into a tiny market town on the Welsh borders. Fox, who wears a black wig and floral dresses told neighbours, who knew nothing of fox's sordid past, that fox was an electrician from Bangor as they helped get settled into fox's new surroundings and helped furnish her flat. Fox arrived in a sheltered accommodation block for older people in a tiny town at the start of June. Fox was given new furniture, a television, printer, washing machine and crockery by the armed forces charity SSAFA because fox had once been in the Territorial Army. Fox’s release from prison has appalled the daughter Ceri-Lee Galvin, who bravely waived her right to anonymity, having been abused by her father for nine years from the age of eight. Revealing her astonishment, Ceri-Lee, 24, said: ‘My father is not a woman and I refuse to recognise him as such. He changed his gender in prison to make his life there easier. ‘But now he is out and already up to his usual tricks conning everyone he meets. ‘The fact he is now dressed as a woman makes him more dangerous as young girls are his thing and he has never shown any remorse. ‘My father is a highly manipulative man who has attended no sexual offender rehabilitation programmes, shown no remorse for what he has done and openly admits finding children attractive. ‘There have been no meetings I’m aware of to tell local schools about his presence, he has no tag and no curfew. He has just been put into this community and given all he could wish for – food, furniture and a home.’ Ceri-Lee, now a student paramedic, added: ‘I am in no way transphobic and I feel incredibly sorry for people who genuinely need to transition. They face stigma and worse because of cases like this. ‘But it should just not be an option for those convicted of sexual offences against children to suddenly say that they want to be a woman. ‘This only arose at the end of 2021 when he was due to be moved to an open prison but then had a fight with a fellow prisoner that was serious enough to stop the move. ‘That is when he went for the gender change – when he was almost 60, having been a macho man all his life and having had eight children and having never mentioned gender dysphoria before. ‘Now he is being indulged by everyone. The prison service gave him make-up and women’s clothes and now a charity for the armed forces have provided him with so much stuff when all he did was a short stint in the Territorial Army in his 20s.

When I talk about fear culture at our universities, this is what I mean. A few young minds that have closed themselves off to anything they disagree with are ruining it for the majority of us students who know that such exposure is the most important of all.

There's confusion, so here's that EHRC guidance in plain Sunday Sport language: 'Lads, if you want to play dress up and have a wank, crack on. Just not in the ladies' shithouse, eh?'

An astonishing omission by @BBCNews to leave out the motivation of this man. He specifically targeted girls and he was motivated by ‘trans’ grievances. Why sanitise the truth in this case? In his own words 👇

The core part of the Henry Nowak murder (the part we must not forget and must seriously engage with) is that his killer and family instinctively thought to fabricate a racism narrative because they knew it would give them an immediate advantage and invert the roles at the scene. And it worked exactly as calculated. It has struck a raw nerve because it makes visible in the most repulsive way imaginable what many have long sensed, that accusations of racism have become a powerful, paralysing force in modern Britain eventually leading to a dying boy being sidelined while the system instinctively prioritised accusations of racism.

We have to stop zig-zagging from one stupid extreme to the other.

This petition has to get to 10 000 within the next 3 weeks. We really, really, really need this research into the impact of desexed language in women's health! Please sign and share! petition.parliament.uk/petit…

11 trans people have been murdered since 2000. 3 by “clients”, 1 drug dealer, 2 family 3 partners, 1 by school students and 1 by a transwomen. All knew their killers.

Yes.

She was 14 = “old enough to consent.” He was 22 = “too young for prison.” Patriarchy’s math is not mathing. Women are always old enough and men are never old enough

An advertising executive in 1939 wrote a 48-page book explaining exactly how ideas are made. It's 5 steps. Almost everyone skips the one that actually does the work. His name was James Webb Young, and he spent his career at one of the biggest ad agencies in America watching people wait around for inspiration to strike. He thought that was insane. He believed producing an idea was a process you could learn, repeat, and control, the same way a factory produces cars. So he wrote down the exact method. The whole thing rests on one claim that sounds too simple to be true. An idea is nothing more than a new combination of old elements. That's it. You don't invent ideas out of nothing. You take things that already exist and connect them in a way nobody connected before. Which means the entire skill of being creative is just the skill of seeing relationships between things. The more raw material you've stuffed into your head, the more combinations become possible. He compared the mind to a kaleidoscope. Every turn shifts the same colored pieces into a new pattern. The more pieces inside, the more striking the patterns it can make. You are not making new glass. You are rearranging what's already there. Then he laid out the five steps. Step one is gathering raw material. Two kinds. Specific material about the exact problem in front of you, and general material about everything else under the sun. He said most people fail right here, because gathering is boring and they'd rather sit and hope inspiration shows up. He called it a chore people are constantly trying to dodge. Step two is chewing on it. You take the facts and turn them over in your mind, look at them from every angle, try to force pieces together. Partial ideas start showing up. So does exhaustion. You hit a wall where nothing fits and your brain feels completely used up. Most people read that wall as failure and quit. It isn't failure. It's the signal for step three. Step three is the one everyone rushes past. You drop the problem completely. You walk away. You go do something that has nothing to do with the work, something that excites you. A movie, a walk, music, sleep. Young was dead serious about this. You make no direct effort at all. You hand the whole thing over to your unconscious mind and you leave it alone. This feels like procrastination. It is the opposite. Your conscious mind has done all it can. Now a deeper part of your brain takes the pieces you fed it and keeps shuffling them while you are busy not thinking about it. Step four is when the idea comes back. Not while you're straining at your desk. It arrives in the shower, on a walk, the second you stop trying. That flash of insight only fires after you've released the pressure. Young watched it happen to himself again and again, and so has anyone who's ever solved a problem the moment they gave up on it. James Clear built half his work on this idea. Brian Eno reaches for the same principle every time he gets stuck. The break is not a break from the work. The break is the work. Step five is the part the dreamers abandon. You take the fragile new idea out into the real world and let it get criticized. You shape it, fix it, adapt it to actual conditions. Young said good ideas have a self-expanding quality. Show one to the right people and they instantly tell you how to make it better. Most idea people are too precious to listen. They lose the idea in the final stage because they won't let anyone touch it. So the full loop is gather, chew, drop it, catch it, ship it. The brutal part is how simple it sounds. Young warned that the formula is so easy to state that nobody believes it works, and so hard to follow that almost nobody actually does it. The believing is easy. The doing is the whole game. Everyone wants the flash of insight in step four. Nobody wants to do the boring gathering in step one, and nobody trusts the empty waiting in step three. But the idea was never going to come from staring harder. It was going to come the moment you finally looked away.
