One of the scariest things is that he looks genuinely puzzled, as though he's never been challenged on this hypocrisy before, this is part of the problem.

@Somesaylezzels
This is research-based fact, you're absolutely correct. So many disorders are in fact a sane reaction to an insane situation.

I know this man has a terrible burden on his shoulders every day and it is so nice to see him receive good news and smile, if only for a moment.

@NeilPHauer
He literally said 'day and night, night and day', let him take a breath and rest for a moment, 'investing fox' sitting on his butt tweeting from home.
@roblee4
JK Rowling's legacy is:
Philanthropy to the level of losing her billionaire status
Supporting kids with her Lumos charity plus
Book Aid International
Catie Hoch Foundation
Children with AIDS
Dyslexia Action
Haven Foundation, etc.
and inspiring millions of kids to read.
Yours:

There is a saying, by Eckhart Tolle I think, about the glowing transparent beauty that the very elderly have, potentially before the next step, the last.
I saw it in this photo.
@guy_ingerson
Truth isn't 'abuse'. If you want to see abuse, go to a 'let women speak' event. If you want to do something about abuse, support women in crisis centres against DA, there are nearly 3 women killed per week in the UK.
@EqualiSource
@CasselsJoe
YOU stop with this. It's a slap in the face to the memory of Beverly whose body he discarded like trash on the side of the road after violently stabbing and raping her. Compassion is solely for her and the 14 yr old McLaughlin raped. This is not a woman's crime.

@TheProblem
He used to be one of my favourites, and there's no doubt he did extraordinary work for the responders of 911 and firefighters. Other than that, his show became boring, he'll never be on par with Colbert, and this is the next Big Grift for clout-chasers.
@BlackKnight10k
Cory Booker wasn't wrong in saying the world was watching, I'm a Canadian in London (UK), we were glued to the screens. What a beautifully articulate, intelligent & supremely composed woman. Her opening statement compared w/Kavanaugh's was extraordinary,only one of them uplifted.
@pepeppepppepep
I have a lot of respect for Jon Stewart on the whole, particularly given his fight for responders of 911, but his strategic knowledge is next to nothing and in this case, he's the populist eedjit's 'intellectual'.
@DelMody
@GettyImages
Under all of this, he's just a young man who misses his gran. You could see the deep affection they had for each other when they did the Invictus Games clip.
Big hugs to him. x
@jessesingal
Do they really not see how deranged this is, this 'thought-policing'? So now Kaling is going to have to go on some daytime show and 'apologize'. So pathetic.
@Fhamiltontimes
This whole thread is horrific and not just because of the reprehensible original comments but the fact that these particular officers have no clue as to why they're offensive. Terrifying.
@ryecollegeuk
Your bullying teacher needs to be fired. I would never send anyone to a school that lambasts them for their lawfully protected rights to hold their own opinion.
@MalesInDisguise
These kids really need to get away from preening and preaching on social media and be plopped in a volunteer camp for a month or two. Seriously.
@PankhurstEM
No doubt owned by trans. Find a better place with which to bestow your money - then post it and when we all visit, we'll go there and drink a shot!

LOVE Rowling. If anything 'destroys childhood' it would be those sniveling mega-millionaire talentless kid-actors who threw her under the bus.

@Liv_Boeree
The students are taking photos and filming and sharing because they feel uncomfortable. One of the students tweeted they weren't supposed to say anything (he even showed his school ID). This isn't about you or your personal feelings, it's about child safe-guarding.
@SuseG71
That teacher needs to be reported. No way can she speak to students like that - GC beliefs are protected by law. I hope she is reported because push-back needs to start at the grassroots level and right now.
@Timcast
"Girlhood". Something that is a rite of passage for women from periods to thinking twice about getting in an elevator with a lone male late at night. Something they're appropriating and will never understand. Grown men talking about 'girlhood'. Madness.
@KemiBadenoch
Brava Kemi. That it's 8 years to the day when Jo Cox was assassinated is particularly evil. No one actively encouraging harm to another MP should be in office; it's vile, immature, weak and destructive. Thank you for speaking up for her.
@JohnJamesTV
Went through the threads of tweeps (their word) saying goodbye. Full of she/hers, they/thems. No wonder all those rape and death threats JK Rowling and others got were allowed to flourish and misogyny and homophobia went through the roof. Only words left are good riddance.
@Sara_Rose_G
Such gaslighting Sara. There is backlash because of this, and you know it. You want to stop it? Call out the violent TRA's for their violence and 'hateful'ness. We're so sick of this.
@Tachardiella
@TheProblem
He came across as smug and arrogant. I do wish she'd been better prepared to fire back some questions of her own, like 'Do you think a 16yr old mind fully comprehends the consequences of sterility and life-long medications, and why do you think this is being supported?'
@ejrosetta
This is horrifying to read. I hope your dad is getting better, just awful. Yes, I think we all, or most of us, started in support, but the past few years has changed everything.
@LGBTIScotland
Having had a suicide in our family, it impacted us all for years in a myriad of ways - suicidal ideation should NEVER be weaponized or used as a coercion tactic, this dismisses genuine victims and their families. Their reaction was decidedly mild in the face of this aberration.
@zenxv
@cbouzy
So what if she was? We know that's not true, but what if she was a drama queen, she deserves this kind of hate and deranged vitriol? It's you, Farmer, you are a deeply damaged soul that this is how you spend your time.
@CandiceDMeza
@YoungerLorna
@UjuAnya
All so very true. But the stigma is painfully real. The only time I've felt alone during my choice to not marry has been amoung the judgment of others. We need to normalize this choice for upcoming generations so they can choose it without stigma.
@EvaEvansshine2
@OwenJones84
I noticed this, too. His eyes dark around like a protective tiger. This trip must be hell for him and bring up so many memories.
@the_rat_pac
@nu_mindframe
Ricky, so heart-breaking to read this. Please know there IS hope & people do recover! What's good about this is you've caught it early and can work with it. Suggest DBT course and books, anything by Marsha Linehan (also BPD), watch videos. You CAN get better, tho takes some work.
@I_amMukhtar
Ppl aren't talking about it as much, but Lady SH 'moving her hair aside' to see Ngozi's nametag seems equally degrading. A movement of entitlement that she could just reach across someone's personal space and touch her hair like that.
@saintjavelin
As a Ukrainian, I think it's unfair and divisive to accuse an entire nation for this, particularly without evidence. I see a massive outpouring of empathy and support for Valeriia's mother from many German people. Enough division, it's what Russia wants.
@CBSSunday
Incredibly brave. I grew up watching Michael and this really hits. I remember him saying that he knew when people saw him in a wheelchair, they were picturing themselves in his shoes, wondering how they would handle it. I don't know, but not many with this kind of raw courage.
@jonkay
Said this a few weeks ago when I saw these students. Upcoming generations will always rebel against anything mainstream their parents do. Was ever thus.
@punishedmother
Do you really think a guy who was straight wouldn't lie to access a women's prison? A rape crisis centre? Women have been saying this for years, so bloody pick one.
Because you can't have both.
@DrFletchington
Just saw that another employee tweeted that his daughter was 'trans'. This is why 'likes' kept getting removed from JK Rowling's tweets and so many of us had our accounts locked. Really disgusting.
@ReduxxMag
Immed. after the law was implemented, CA correctional centers had hundreds of transfer requests from male inmates seeking movement into women’s facilities. According to KPSS US, 1/3 of all male inmates who've requested transfers are registered sex offenders. Women better rise up
@LGBAllies_Cymru
Last time I was there, there was a very drunk tall skinny guy in a black curly wig, fishnets & bright red lipstick carrying a bottle of something alcoholic stumbling in the meadow and screaming how we all 'couldn't do nothin'' about it. The women ignored him, I've never been back
@Oxfam
What do you mean 'in sport'? There's never been an issue with LGB in sport. There is an issue of the 'T' colonizing women's sport though - how is that fair for women and girls??
@ZackBornstein
This reminds me of a taxi driver I met in Oxford who was complaining about the Uni students 'clogging up' the roads and shops. When I asked why he didn't move, he looked genuinely surprised,
"'Cos I'd miss 'em".

They never respond with measured reason, just regurgitated tropes. He has zero respect for women's rights but no problem with 'rent-a-womb'.

@Somesaylezzels
I'd love to take credit, but I think it was Gabor Mate's. He does a lot of trauma work. He has a book coming out in Sept called 'The Myth of Normal', check it out if you like. 🙂 His first book, 'In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts' really helped me.
@roblee4
Is that why you hid your replies to your first disgusting tweet? Conflating a man's death with your misogyny is not about 'standing by' anyone, and you know it.
And so do we.
@meralhece
I got told to go back home to America by an older woman right after Brexit. I was with a group of friends, we weren't even looking in her direction, it came out of the blue.
And I'm not even American.
@LizWebsterSBF
@DailyMirror
What were they thinking?? Ppl couldn't even attend funerals and respected the 'rules', they're not only flaunting, but laughing about it.
@Glinner
I know it's hard Graham, but don't highlight him(after this, of course). He's a narcissist who feeds off attention; it's why he constantly mentions celebs, to attach his name to it. It doesn't matter to narcs if it's negative or positive attention it's the same. Don't feed him.
@dreadful019
Such a sad outlook on life, that someone or something taught you that 'desirability' from men is the only thing worthy for women. Many women & girls have achieved and created great things, and uplift, rely on, learn from & encourage eachother. The sisterhood is cross-generational
One of the few sex segregated rape crisis centres left in Canada is Vancouver Rape Relief. Among other things, trans rights activists nailed a dead rat to their door. Morgane Oger has been targeting them for years.
@DreyfusJames
Thank you for sharing this James. I felt a bit choked up reading it. How brave you are to share it. I've been the 'first told' for many of my gay male friends, and it's always been an honour to me. Some funny stories too, and a very sad one. Maybe shared over a beer one day. x
@Glinner
And he's now gloating on Facebook. There are loads of other inclusive spas, he deliberately chose this Korean one that imports traditional bathing like Jjimjilbang which is sex-segregated, to get them to capitulate and shut down. He's a racist, just like Yaniv.
@michaelpforan
So disappointing to see this, Comedy Clubs were the last bastion, the vanguard of free expression. I used to despise some comedy acts for their rampant sexism, so I did the radical action of 'not attending them'.
I hope she sues.
