I get a sort of pop up over the existing page.

I foolishly bought a flat where the ceiling of the library is too low for this to be anything other than ridiculous.

Guess what?
The story about the trans M&S employee and the bra fitting is a pack of lies and distortions.

โ€˜What have I done wrong?โ€™ Trans kids go back to school bathroom bans in Scotland Councils rushing to put policies on school bathrooms in place leave trans children facing confusion, distress and the risk of being outed.

Wow, this is vile. Shame on Edinburgh Council. goodlawproject.org/what-have-i-...

If you cannot go to the bathroom at work, you cannot go to work. If you cannot go to the bathroom at school, you cannot go to school. This effectively bans transgender people from a broad swath of public life in the UK

I would really rather like to go to middle aged lady finishing school if it could have a mix of modern and classic tools. Flower arranging and how to shoot down a drone that is encroaching on one's manor.

Not my mortification, but I witnessed it. I was working as an assistant to Jane, a woman who hit the โ€œlittle old ladyโ€ stereotype even though she was in her forties. She wore a lot of cardigans she knitted herself and she quilted blankets for everyone who had a baby. She had quaint turns of phrase like โ€œThank you kindly,โ€ which she even used in her email signature. She had a range of cat statues on her desk. That kind of thing.

We had two newer employees who were both in their mid-20s, call them Frank and Hank, and they thought it would be hysterical to substitute words in a report they were writing for Jane with similar-sounding words that were slang terms for sex acts. They assumed this sweet innocent woman would never notice, and since she was the only one who would read it, no harm done.

Jane got the document and called them in ten minutes later. I sat at my desk and listened while she grilled them about their โ€œunusual word choicesโ€ until they broke down and admitted they had maybe used some slang terms they shouldnโ€™t have. As a joke. Then she made them define each one. I could hear the absolute mortification in their voices as they struggled through explanations of terms I myself didnโ€™t know, telling a woman they thought of as sweet and innocent all about these sexual terms.

Then came the one where Hank defined it and Jane said, โ€œNo, thatโ€™s not what it means,โ€ and provided a very detailed and technical explanation using proper medical terminology. Dead silence from Frank and Hank. Jane said, โ€œPranks like these make you look incompetent. Using words you donโ€™t understand makes you look like fools. And making assumptions about your coworkersโ€™ personal lives makes you look ignorant. Now youโ€™re going to spend the next six months trying to prove to me that youโ€™re none of those things, and it seems like that will be quite a challenge for you.โ€

Frank and Hank played no more pranks for the rest of the time I worked there.
