Kindness to who?
Kindness to female prisoners with a history of childhood sexual abuse, forced to be locked up with biologically male abusers?
Kindness to female athletes, who have dedicated their whole lives to achieving excellence in their chosen sport, only to be beaten by a biological male with immutable physical advantages?
Kindness to female children, forced to share loos and changing facilities with biological boys at school that make them feel uncomfortable?
Kindness to females everywhere, who stand in effect to lose the sex based legal protections their foremothers fought tooth and nail for?
Kindness to the women who dare to object? Who experience intimidation, rape threats, and assault for doing so? To whom shall we extend our empathy and kindnesses @PhilipPullman ?

This is my parents cat. He has just sicked on the carpet. Earlier he pissed in the hall. His name is 'Mighty' but he's terrified of tin foil.

He is the world's crappest cat. Bless.
In the style of Attenborough's Dynasties:

This is Mighty, fighting to survive in the wild. Unfortunately, Mighty has seen a small mouse and become startled. He is hiding now.
Mighty is hungry. But can a cat find a single morsel of roast beef flung from a humans dinner plate in this bloody forest? A cat cannot. Mighty decides to lay down and die.

The ultimate aim - as with everything - is for trans women to compete in women's sports on a self ID basis. With no gatekeeping whatsoever. Because biological males are female if they say so.

I mean that escalated quick, didn't it, from 'We just want to pee in peace.'
In 2019 fight with all your might. Before your daughters have nothing: no safe, sex segregated spaces, no sports, no workable laws to protect them from sex discrimination.

When I first started talking about this issue, my friends scoffed and dismissed me as alarmist when I said
we would have biologically male rapists in women's prisons. The sheer rapidity with which the next frontiers and boundaries are being torn through is frightening.

And it won't stop. What seems alarmist today will be tomorrow's new reality. At what point will you say: enough.

When an ideology lacks coherence and nothing its proponents claim makes any sense, remember ladies to just shut up.

When male people say they are female, but also that there is no such thing as a distinct female sex class, then good girls like Fiona stay quiet and listen.
Fiona doesn't ask inconvenient questions or expect anything to make sense. No. Fiona accepts that her role is to accommodate; to absorb; to defer.

Which is lovely.
And apparently if you do this for long enough, you find none of it's confusing anymore!

Even lovelier. So perhaps then, Fiona, you could explain to me just *how* male people are female if they say so, while at the same time a distinct female sex class does not exist?

Texas plans to execute Joseph Garcia on Tuesday. The jury at Joseph's trial only heard bits and pieces of his life story. Juries should know the truth about a person's background before making a life-and-death decision. Here's the full story that Joseph's jury never heard:
Joseph Garcia was born on November 6, 1971, in San Antonio. Joseph's mother, Sophie, was 19 years old and already had three older children with Danny Garcia. Sophie and Danny had their first child when Sophie was 14 years old.
Before Joseph was born, Sophie abandoned Danny and her three older children. She only kept Joseph with her because it was unclear if Danny was his father. Sophie began dating Louie, a Vietnam veteran with a heroin addiction, and the three of them moved to New York.

The picture of this guy alone, would make anyone terrified.

NOTE: It took 6 years to get this to happen. 6 LONG YEARS for this victim.

The girl was 13 when Elkis Hermida, a math teacher at Thomas Edison Middle School, began grooming her, according to a civil suit filed in 2012 by the student.
2/ Hermida went on to molest the girl for seven months in his classroom and near the campus, incidents for which the educator was sent to prison for three years.

1/ @TheTakeaway @tanzinavega really disappointed you had this guest on a show peddling controversial theories that weaponize the failures of the #criminaljusticesystem #racism and #massincarceration against survivors of #domesticviolence and #coercivecontrol.
2/#VAWAs failures lie not only in its non-holistic, non-systemic approach to addressing #DV—not as #coercivecontrol and not in coordination with child safety risks, as it should be—but also in its methodology, assumptions, implementation etc. @thetakeaway @tanzinavega
3/Just because #VAWA is flawed doesn’t mean you throw the baby out with the bath water. Her theories are dangerous to #survivors and hide its misogynist underpinnings as they center #abuser needs over #survivor and #child #safety, #stability #strength. @TheTakeaway @tanzinavega

1) @SaRaAshcraft or @FionaBa47662575 maybe someone can give me some insight. I recently was talking to my sister, shes the one who got me studying #SRA and the possibility of it influencing our past
2) she told me about an incident she had recently remembered after moving out of the house at 16 and having gotten a new phone # that nobody had.
3) shortly after getting this new number she started getting strange calls. A man with an evil intonation would call and harass her, call her terrible names. She had only recently remembered this happening, but at the time it was terrifying.

I'm reading the grand jury report on sex abuse in Pennsylvania's Catholic Church so you don't have to. In sum, the Catholic Church shielded themselves by shaming, degrading, and discrediting survivors. This report is a reckoning. #TimesUP #MeToo THREAD

cnn.com/2018/08/14/us/…
All of the survivors were "brushed aside, in every part of the state by church leaders who preferred to protect the abusers and their institution above all." We've seen this dynamic in the Olympic Movement, non-Catholic churches, schools, and the corporate world. 2/
"We are going to shine a light on their conduct, because that is what victims deserve." Predatory organizations and predators themselves thrive on secrecy. One way to bring about positive change is to break the silence. Silence only benefits the oppressors. 3/
