When ppl see you fighting, it makes them want to join in. They want to be associated with Guy Who Takes No Crap. They're going to think of this moment when filling in the little oval and they're going to _smile_. 338464

Stephanie Theakston @stephanietheakston.bsky.social · 16/09/2026We need universal definitions of intimate partner and sexual violence. Otherwise you get terribly misleading statistics like this. At the very least researchers and journalists reporting on research should be required to state the definition used for the study at the beginning of the article. 000

Stephanie Theakston @stephanietheakston.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Saying “the system is broken” is the quickest way to get me to stop listening. The system is not broken. It is working exactly as intended. We cannot keep the same design and treat its predictable results as accidental failures. 001

They want to own women and children as property. The only real fascist goal is domination. They have no other. The rest is just whatever lie they’re currently telling to disguise that fact. 231934759
Reposted by Stephanie TheakstonTeeklin @teeklin.bsky.social · 27/05/2026It's always stunning to me how many problems we could easily solve and just...don't. Like, for the cost of a single day of war in Iran we could build a factory that produces enough insulin to give every diabetic free insulin. All rationing, costs, and deaths gone overnight. We just...don't do it. 043

You have to make the choice to believe that more than this is possible & not be resigned to this being the way things have to be because it’s not at all. 182291945

Stephanie Theakston @stephanietheakston.bsky.social · 11/12/2025We don’t have enough information on this, but please don’t assume it’s a “tragic” issue of mental health. It very well could be the mind of a domestic abuser and if that is the case his actions were deliberate. No reason to provide excuses before more facts. 040
