Thinking some thoughts about how people can spend more effort sympathising with a man who *might* have lost *some* access to his kids than with a woman who actually did have her kids stolen for four entire years

Hundreds gather in Dunedin for protest against proposed gender legislation Winston Peters is proposing new legislation that will define the term "woman" as "an adult human biological female".

Dunedin says "Fuck you, Winston" www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Bye bye Bob Jones.
You won’t be missed.

Not using a VPN

Thank you! I’ll ring them tomorrow

Turning the Wi-Fi off at my phone worked, connected instantly. I just don’t get it. This is only in the last 24 hours.
It wouldn’t usually irritate me this much, but I have to use countdown to do the shopping list for the women when they need them.

Well, what do you know. That worked. So confusing. I’ll ring their IT people tomorrow and figure something out. It seems very strange to me.

Hmmm

Nope

Keeps redirecting back to the main one

IVE TRIED ALL OF THEM 🤣

I’ve restarted all the devices, I’ve done all that. It just keeps on doing it, and I don’t really know what to do about it.

I’m not using the app, just the website itself. It’s a worry just because I use these for when the women need shopping lists done.

I’m so confused. I haven’t been able to access the Woolworths website since yesterday? I’ve tried every browser,. On my phone, iPad, laptop. It just comes up with access denied every time.
What the hell.

I saw this on fb today so I’ve nicked it. Gave me quite the giggle.

If you’re against all this anti trans bullshit, you need to speak out. Do it for the kids. So many trans kids frightened right now.

Some of them will have loving families, some will not.

I think they need to hear your voices. I think that’s important.

Just a challenge x

I think probably around five or so years ago, I started thinking how ridiculous it is that a baby comes out of the womb, and its entire life is then predicated on its genitals, essentially. It’s just creepy and weird and yet we all carry on as if it’s a completely normal thing to do.

Right? I’d never watched it before and I’m sure as shit not watching it again.

Experts pfffft

It was absolutely awful. And as somebody who works in the field, I found it really unsafe and actually dangerous. They’re using this shit for entertainment.

I would hope so. What he did to that woman is unforgivable, produces kept making her stay there for fucks sake.

I started watching MAFS + stopped when I saw abusive behaviours producers were allowing.
Today, one of the women told me that she’s been watching it with her teen girl, and they sit and discuss the abusive behaviours, what to look out for, red flags etc.
Adrian? Her words: that was DV 101.

Lefties, libs. And whatever the equivalent is for ppl politically opp to that.
Hate those terms. All of them.

Just use

Fascists
And
Humanists.

A bit binary?

I guess those who swim in the “reasonable” middle might have to start taking a bit more of a position eh.

FYI 1737 is realistically not for ppl who are experiencing anything other than mild anxiety/depression etc.

I made the mistake of ringing them for someone else ONCE.

And glommed onto what it was, immediately.

Treaty Principles Bill scrapped but the fight for Te Tiriti is just beginning - lawyers and advocates say Legal experts and Māori advocates say the fight to protect Te Tiriti is only just beginning - as the controversial Treaty Principles Bill is officially killed in Parliament.

‘If anything this is really just beginning. We've got the Regulatory Standards Bill that's going to be introduced at some point before June. That particular bill will do what the Treaty Principle's Bill was aiming to do, but in a different and just more sneaky way’

Exactly. Sneaky.

Oh same. Relieved this bit is over xxxx

The subtext of Goldsmith and the other National MPs who spoke:
"We don't need this awkward Bill. We have all these other ways of undermining and sidelining Te Tiriti. Let's defeat this Bill so we can get on with them."

I feel like NZ fired the Treaty Principles Bill out of an old timey cannon today, at least metaphorically speaking (although I think some of us would have liked to have done so in practice too?) #nzpol
