"A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating."

How do they get thrown out of toilets? I've never seen that happen, it sounds awful. Is it a workplace thing?
Shouldn't we strive for safe spaces forever?
I don't know much about Rowling.
I object to the word cis, I find it offensive. I will not use a term for someone if they find it offensive & I would appreciate the same respect. — © Repliedto x NORMIE x How do they get thrown out of toilets?

I don't know enough but it does seem that women are not allowed to question any of the changes trans people demand & if they do they must be labelled as not wanting trans people to exist.
That sounds extreme.

Surely there can be more than one pov without trans peopledemonising every person who has concerns or asks questions.
Is there no way to support both women & trans women without previous women's rights being changed with no questions permitted? — © Replied to HarriettMB I don't know enough but it does seem that women are not allowed to question any of the changes trans people demand & if they do they must be labelled as not wanting trans people to exist.

Zohran #Mamdani's support of #TransRights is well known

Here's a bizarre anecdote on that topic:

You may know that Zohran's mother is the director #MiraNair. Mira was offered the chance to direct " #HarryPotter and the Order of the Phoenix"

She turned it down because Zohran said no

A *14 year old* Zohran Mamdani kept his mother away from #JKRowling

(I'm not implying he knew of Rowling's #bigotry in 2006, I just find this trivia extraordinary)
