Reduxx reports:

A trans-identified male musician in California is currently touring and performing songs calling for the murder of women critical of gender identity ideology. Precious Child, who previously involved himself in the Wi Spa controversy, utilizes graphic sexual and violent threats against “TERFs” in his music.

During his most recent performance at the Knockout Bar in San Francisco, Precious Child performed his song “TERF Killer,” riling the audience into chanting “kill a TERF today.”

That is, today kill a feminist woman who knows that men are not women.

In a video of the performance shared to his YouTube account, Precious Child can be seen chanting “kill a TERF today” while the accompanying music video is shown on

Via the Sydney Morning Herald:

A lesbian community organisation will be forced to keep its events open to men, straight women and transgender women after the Australian Human Rights Commission refused to grant it an exemption from anti-discrimination laws.

The AHRC’s decision prohibits the group from staging a planned “Lesbians Born Female” event to commemorate International Lesbian Day. It also challenges traditional notions of sex as a biological concept as the commission concluded that sex is non-binary and changeable.

Ok Australian Human Rights Commission, let’s see all of you change your sexes. Go on, show us how it’s done.

“The commissioner submits that the word ‘sex’ is not a biological concept referring to whether a person at birth had

Lying seems to be an occupational hazard of trans ideology. Not that being a trans ideologue is a real occupation, but it might as well be.

Despite how it is billed the only quoted clinician is Dr David Bell – a long term opponent of care for trans kids.
It is based on Stock’s perception of the services, not on any actual knowledge of the services. Truly shameful GC/Terf ‘journalism’ https://t.co/kTIoIvxHIW https://t.co/Akl5PS0xNO

Of course Bell doesn’t oppose “care for trans kids.”

If your ideology causes you to tell lies like this in public, get rid of your ideology. It’s poison.… Read the rest

Originally a comment by KBPlayer on No No No.

My corporate lawyers employers really value getting inclusive awards and they sent us 10 commandments for Happy Pronoun Day.

Only about 4-5% of employees put pronouns in their signatures. The pronouns are in fact what you would expect – he for the blokes, she for the women, and nothing like they or zi. Annoyingly, this does include some colleagues that I like. No-one ever talks about it though, not in my hearing anyway.

The 10 commandments:-

1. Normalise pronoun sharing – this is to make an inclusive atmosphere, where everyone is comfortable expressing their gender identity. [And those who don’t believe in this feeling pretty damned uncomfortable. Everyone should genuflect … Read the rest

A ‘balance between fairness and inclusion’: USA Cycling unveils new Transgender Athlete Participation Policy

Raises hand

Excuse me excuse me this is competitive sports you’re talking about. It can’t be “inclusive” at all times because of the competitive bit. The whole point of competition is to exclude everyone but the winner. Inclusion isn’t the goal.

Also, of course, what they mean by “a balance between fairness and inclusion” is inclusion of men who pretend to be women at the expense of women. You can’t “balance” that. You might as well try to balance a piano on your finger.

Maxim Australia Names Trans-Identified Male Football Coach In “Hottest 100 Women” List

A transgender former football champion has made the Maxim Australia’s Hot 100 list for the second year in a row, prompting confusion amongst Aussie netizens. The list, intended to highlight the most successful and beautiful women in entertainment, sports, and pop culture, ranked Danielle Laidley in 92nd place.

Laidley is a former star coach who played for the West Coast Eagles and North Melbourne in the Australian Football League from 1987 to 1997. He “officially” announced his transition in 2020, shocking many fans with his dramatic transformation from “Dean” to “Dani.”

Sidney Powell has pleaded guilty.

Sidney K. Powell, a member of Donald J. Trump’s legal team after he lost the 2020 election, pleaded guilty on Thursday morning to six misdemeanor counts instead of facing a criminal trial that was to begin next week. She was among 19 defendants, including Mr. Trump, who were indicted in August for their efforts to subvert the election results in Georgia.

Ms. Powell, 68, who appeared in a downtown Atlanta courtroom, was sentenced to six years of probation for conspiracy to commit intentional interference of election duties. That is a significantly less-severe outcome than she would have faced if found guilty of the charges for which she was originally indicted, which included a violation

Poor Willz, he’s so transparent. (No not that way, the usual way.)

Tss. He doesn’t feel sorry for anyone. It’s not in him. He’s far too obsessed with his own precious self to spare a moment to feel sorry for anyone else, let alone people he hates as much as gender-disobedient women.

And as for angry, nasty? Really, sir? Really? You are calling us angry and nasty?

He’s an excellent spokesman for his cause. Long may he rave.… Read the rest

If we are to be judged by how our words might one day be used by the spiritual descendents of our current political enemies, then none of us should write anything at all, because that is a game none can hope to win. Unless you are fanatically certain that history does indeed have a singular arc and that you will somehow always land on the correct side of it forevermore, that is.

You have a point there. We know that Martin Luther King, for instance, would not have approved of the politics of Rand Paul, and would be dismayed to hear Paul appropriating his words.… Read the rest

Human rights? You sure about that?

One – get those clapping hands out of my face. Clapping at us is not the way to persuade or convince us of anything.

Two – yes using specialty pronouns damn well is optional. People don’t get to pick out their very own pronouns as if they were a party dress and then force other people to use them. My words are not yours to control.

Three – of course it’s not “a huge form of support, respect & love” – don’t be so ridiculous! Calling a man “her” is neither support nor respect nor love.

Four, why do trans people get their very own special day about 700 times a year now? … Read the rest

Oh good god can you imagine???

A week with Willoughby???

Of course she wouldn’t do it ffs. First of all she has better things to do, obviously, but second plus third through billionth: with Willoughby. Of course she wouldn’t spend a week with Willoughby: he’s a boring rude self-obsessed demanding bad-tempered shallow blob of nothing. What would this fun project have in it for her? Not a damn thing. It would be hell from beginning to end. Of course she “wouldn’t do it.”

Prison for pronouns eh?

JK Rowling has said she would happily do a spell in jail if a future Labour government makes it a hate crime to deliberately call someone by the wrong pronouns. The Harry Potter author said she would rather do time for misgendering than submit to “compelled speech”.

She spoke out after The Mail on Sunday revealed that Labour plans to introduce stricter sentences for abuse targeted at transgender people.

This would bring transphobic abuse into line with assault and harassment motivated by hatred on the grounds of race or religion, which are punishable by up to two years in prison.

What does that mean? It’s not “abuse” to use normal pronouns, nor is it harassment. If … Read the rest

Meanwhile in Ghana:

Awusife Kagbitor paces anxiously on a dry patch of land overlooking her collapsed and completely submerged three-bedroom home in Mepe in Ghana’s Volta Region. She says she saw water gushing into her house from a nearby stream, and within 10 minutes the water level had reached her neck. On hearing that his mother’s home was flooding, her son Kenneth rushed to the scene and swam his way through the rising waters to save his mother and young siblings.

The 56-year-old farmer is one of thousands of victims of the floods in south-east Ghana. It’s a disaster she is struggling to come to terms with. They were taken unawares and couldn’t salvage anything, she tells me as

JK Rowling brands Scottish Greens a ‘disgrace’ over trans protest

Author doesn’t “hit out at” anyone, of course.

JK Rowling has branded the Scottish Greens a “disgrace” after its councillors stood alongside protesters “campaigning against women”.

The author hit out 24 hours after speaking at a feminist event in Glasgow, organised by Filia, an international organisation campaigning for women’s human rights.

The author did not hit out.

Reacting to video of the protest posted on social media, Rowling said: “That elected officials from the Greens stood proudly beside protesters screaming ‘f*** you’ at women, including those from Afghanistan and Africa, who were meeting in Glasgow to

A thread that’s quite relevant to what I was just saying about the impossibility of believing the dogma, and the strangeness of the fact that the impossibility goes unmentioned.

Going to write a brief thread about the BBC’s strange relationship with the truth on sex and gender.

It won’t start any fires but it might help people understand why the BBC has adopted such an irrational approach.

It was put on the record, but not publicly, in January.

Nathan Williams at The Critic on “queerphobia”:

Last week I wrote an article about the nasty treatment people in the Green Party have faced when they have questioned the prevailing ideology on gender and sex. The exact figure depends on the question asked, but in general a majority of the public agree that biological sex is real and matters (these are known as “gender critical” or “GC” beliefs). The party appears to be calling most of the electorate “bigots”, which is not a great electoral strategy.

But on the upside, it’s such fun.

The Green Party has now issued a document that seeks to correct this, by branding almost the entire population as bigots. Their long awaited Queerphobia
