RT @JudieannRose: With #JKRowling off twitter for the time being, who is celebrating all the wonderful artwork kids are doing for #TheIckabog? I think we should put time into keeping on her tradition of liking and sharing them. The kids shouldn’t ...

RT @simonjedge: As @Glinner has pointed out, in the 5 days since June 7th, they wrote 40 articles about @jk_rowling, 37 with her name in the headline. Not even in the depths of its obsession with the McCanns was the Express so stalkery. ...

RT @SadhbhWalshe: For all that's wrong in the US, at least we do not have a host of alarmingly transphobic "feminists" using their powerful platforms to make life harder than it already is for transgender people. Get a grip, Britain. ...

This is a brilliant thread from someone working in frontline women's services. We don't often hear from them because toeing the line is the condition of their funding streams in many instances. Thank you for speaking up x https://t.co/hXskDk...

I have a lovely garden and a cat and a great relationship with trees and the sea and I'm still not okay with living in a male dominated society in which women do 25% of the unpaid labour and 20% are raped. But thanks for your concern for my ...

This bear repeating. Over and over. The reason why we cannot get people to look at VAWG is not because its rare but because it is so endemic and epidemic people WILL NOT SEE IT. People like @K_IngalaSmith have spent their lives trying to make people ...

RT @JosephMcGann: This- “I hope that men everywhere realise that transgender rights are not a women’s issue. Men also have a responsibility to speak out when they see women being abused and belittled. We owe it to women; we need to put our own house ...

Okay, this is such a fucking perfect Platonic form of this bullshit argument that has been going around for fucking years it needs to be dealt with. 1. How. Many. Women. Were. Killed. This. Week. In. America? I will guarantee you it is a LOT MORE ...
