There’s been a lot of talk about TikTok waking up - especially women - on the gender/sex conversation.

Some of the language is still not ideal, but it’s definitely changing!

So I thought I’d do a wee 🧵 for you all to see what’s happening over there.

More and more trans men are speaking up and asserting their biological reality.

The word cis is being questioned. Many women are saying they don’t want to be called cis, they didn’t agree to it and it’s being imposed on them.

The issue of men buying tampons and making mocking videos has really got on womens nerves.

Men are getting annoyed with it all too.

Families being targeted for abuse because they’ve decided not to teach their children about gender identity are not shutting up.

More views from men..

Young people seem to be getting a bit sick of it all.

People are reaching a point where they’re tired of having to tiptoe around others.

Womens language being taken is really starting to get peoples backs up.

I’ll add more here as I come across them. Just thought it’d be useful to share what TikTok is looking like at the minute!

Trans women are also calling it out.

It sounds like misogyny…

Just a wee song to break it up a bit 😀

I’ll add a caveat here that I’m sharing these TikTok’s not because I follow or agree with what these creators say in other areas. I don’t know them. Im just showing the conversations taking place to give those without the app an idea of what’s going on.

That’s enough. Scottish people aren’t holding back anymore.

This is a homophobic eugenics campaign conducted on an industrial level with a vigour and enthusiasm redolent of a busy abattoir

Frankly why aren't you in a state of moral panic?

You rather ought to be

The pity of it all is:

"in some contexts it's not a problem to treat TW *as if* they are women, and in others it's a *huge* problem, so let's talk about specifics"

is all that a lot of people been saying.

TWAW was always absolutist, and always false.

In this comment, I'm not trying to speak for anyone, or to say anything more that 'this is what a lot of people have been saying'. I realise that some people say much more than this, and will disagree with this attempt at encapsulating a view. I'm reading all the critical...

... comments. The point is to show how extreme and absolutist TWAW was, and how reasonable discussion of policy might be possible, once that is junked. I expect reasonable disagreement. I'm opposed to unreasonable absolutism. And maybe that's dying away.
If so, good.

When challenged, he scuttled away. Please read & share. X

Highlights from Women and Equality Committee on #GRRBill

Naomi Cunningham points out how the GRRBill changes the criteria for getting a GRC - there is nothing in the provision of the bill to stop men who cross dress for erotic purposes from getting a GRC

Naomi Cunningham how a GRC and S22 of the Act can be used to terrify service providers #GRRBill

Michael Foran explains the definition of sex in the Equality Act #GRRBill

Again, at such a key moment in UK and at such high political levels, evidence of deep misunderstanding of EU: The PM is under pressure in some quarters to delay #Brexit vote to allow her first to “improve” deal in Brussels BUT EU is determined not to budge at this stage

2) All EU leaders watching tomorrow’s vote. Of course they want to avoid a no deal #Brexit BUT they feel the deal - so painfully negotiated between EU and UK - is too fresh to re-open. Clarifications, yes but fundamental renegotiations, no.

3) The EU’s international reputation as a tough deal-maker is at stake here too. If Brussels now suddenly “gives in” to U.K. on EU red lines (eg backstop) then that would weaken the EU’s reputation in future trade negotiations with other non EU countries

4) Also on backstop the EU is unlikely to cave in to favour a relationship with a leaving member state (UK) against the explicit wishes and ignoring the deep concerns of a continuing member: Ireland.

5) Both the EU and the PM signed up to a guarantee to protect the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. If either the U.K. or EU can leave the backstop unilaterally then this clearly is no longer a guarantee.

Thrikkangode Sree Randu Moorthy Temple
Ottappalam, Kerala. 🚩
#keralatemples

This is very unique temple as Shiva and Vishnu both are in the “linga” form in the same Garbhagriham. The Srikovil is in a circular pattern. Temple's Prathishta was done by Parasurama.

Mahadeva and Maha Vishnu in the same Srikovil is very rare Prathishta, but poojas are done separately Dhara is done to Maha Vishnu here. People suffering from “KAIVISHAM” and mental illness are fully cured on drinking a medicinal herb supplied by a nearby family here.

The root of the banyan tree around the Ayyappa Sannidhanam is said to have great powers for skin ailments.

Very ancient temple but was covered with forest for many years.
Later two persons Chakki and Chaathan, while cutting trees their axe hit on the nearby
@SriramKannan77

Vigrahams and it suddenly started bleeding. Later Devaprashnam was held and thus found out that these were murthy's of Shiva and Vishnu which was worshipped long back. And thus temple is constructed here.

NEW: @GenFlynn interview w/ @newsmax [on his view of the 2020 Election and what should happen next] "First of all, @realDonaldTrump won on the 3rd of November. The things that he needs to do right now [are]: appoint a Special Counsel, immediately; seize all of these Dominion and

2/ other voting machines that we have across the country; he needs to go ahead and prioritize by state, and probably by county [Fulton County, Maricopa County, as an example]. Exactly what they did up in Antrim County, MI, and what they discovered. I think if he looks

3/ at a random sampling of some of these counties, he's going to find exactly the same problem. These machines are clearly, CLEARLY, there is a foreign influence that is tied to this system, and it goes back to China. It likely goes to Russia. Likely goes to Iran. We know that

4/ Venezuela has participated in the development of these machines. There's been problems all over the country with them. Not only with Dominion, but with this Smartmatic software. He's got a couple of options that he can take, and he needs to take them right now.

5/ The President could, immediately, on his order, seize every single one of these machines around country, on his order. He could also order, within the swing-states [if he wanted to], he could take military capabilities and he could place them in those states & basically re-run

🕵️‍♂️ How Google's PageRank algorithm works

The PageRank algorithm gives each page a rating of its
importance, which is a recursively defined measure of importance, based on if important pages link to it.
It's recursive because the importance of a page refers back to the importance of other pages that link to it

Here's how it works in practice:
1⃣ We start with some pages and crawl them for links

2⃣ Each page has 1/N points (where N as the total number of pages)

3⃣ Add points to each page for the amount of links to it, divided by the number
of links emanating from the sources of these links

Stan Lee’s fictional superheroes lived in the real New York. Here’s where they lived, and why. https://t.co/oV1IGGN8R6

Stan Lee, who died Monday at 95, was born in Manhattan and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. His pulp-fiction heroes have come to define much of popular culture in the early 21st century.

Tying Marvel’s stable of pulp-fiction heroes to a real place — New York — served a counterbalance to the sometimes gravity-challenged action and the improbability of the stories. That was just what Stan Lee wanted. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i

The New York universe hooked readers. And the artists drew what they were familiar with, which made the Marvel universe authentic-looking, down to the water towers atop many of the buildings. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i

The Avengers Mansion was a Beaux-Arts palace. Fans know it as 890 Fifth Avenue. The Frick Collection, which now occupies the place, uses the address of the front door: 1 East 70th Street.
