It’s on the iPhone keyboard as an option if you hold down the = sign. Does that work on an Android keyboard?

I was also upset by “lack of care” instead of “failure to care” or “lack of concern”. Genuinely didn’t know what she meant to start with

Yes, this. They’re not smaller departments, they’re where you live, eat, socialise (mainly) and get supervisions. For lectures, you go to the faculty and mix with students from other colleges. But normally, your main supervisor(s) will be based in your college.

Laughing at you saying on Barpod earlier that you locked Twitter because you were arguing on it too much so now you’ve just switched to Bluesky. Sounds like something I would do 🤣

In my memory, Mrs Mangle was really old - maybe 70? But it turns out she was actually probably about half my current age 🤣👵🏼

Pretty sure they will be litigating over application of the law, rather than application of the guidance. If defendants followed the guidance however, that will assist their defence

So you concede she’s not trying to enforce a change in the law?

He’s an associate professor of law at Oxford University and an expert in equality and anti-discrimination law. Not sure why his personal politics, or the concept of “tolerance” come into it when considering his writings on FWS?

No need to force a change in the law, as clarified by FWS. JKR is simply trying to ensure that people comply with the existing law.

The Supreme Court judgment is extremely clear, does take other legislative areas into account, and is obviously to the benefit of women. Have you read the judgment? You might find this analysis of use (I’m assuming you haven’t already read it) ukconstitutionallaw.org/2025/05/15/m...

Sorry but what's the Labour party got to do with this? The law has been clarified and guidance has been changed. JK Rowling is offering to help ensure that it is followed rather than ignored. If you don't like the law, say what you think it should be.

I remember going on holiday to Ireland for the first time in 1995 and arriving in County Clare the day after they’d won the All-Ireland championship for the first time in 81 years. Was impossible not to get involved!

Responses to this giving a pretty good indication of how men react when they’re told “No” (an eloquent reminder of why women sometimes need spaces of their own)

When self-declared progressives started sending images like this to feminists on old Twitter, not only did nobody give a shit, they denied that it happened at all. When we warned that violent threats degrade all of public discourse, we'd *at best* be told to suck it up because we deserved it.

I’ve read about 36-37 of them, but don’t really see the point of lists like this. No matter who you get to compile them, they’re always really subjective. No Edith Warton? Stendhal? Camus? Thomas Mann? It’s also incredibly English-language heavy

I heard a BBC news report about this on the radio earlier and the reporter said that the use of they/them pronouns for the tribunal had been agreed by all parties (including Rose) for the purposes of neutrality, which was why the BBC was also using them in reports

I'll say it again: if any other ethnic or religious minority said "please don't use this particular term or chant, you might not have bad intentions but it is deeply racist and threatening to us", the reaction would be mortified apology. And that's without a mass terror event four days ago

Exactly the same thing happened to me. Doctor very keen to get me on SSRIs. My sister suggested it might be menopause-related, or at least aggravated by that. Had to insist on HRT, against doctor’s recommendation. Anxiety massively reduced within a few days/weeks

6. Schedule 3 of the Equality Act allows single-sex services in certain contexts. That is still the law. Yet this letter frames any attempt to apply that law as discrimination. It’s not. It’s statute. (The above 6 points were taken from another commentator, so I can’t claim 100% credit) 6/6

5. The letter has a glaring hole. It refuses to acknowledge competing rights. Women’s groups, faith-based providers, victims of trauma, even the organisations delivering services, are nowhere to be found. 5/6

4. They say the EHRC should have waited. For what? Clarity had just been handed down by the Supreme Court. Silence at that point would have been negligence. Regulators are there to clarify, not play dead.

3. The EHRC is accused of causing “distress” and “harm” by issuing interim guidance. Serious charges, offered without a shred of evidence. No examples, no stakeholder testimony, no data. Just emotion in search of legal weight. 3/6
