Today's #IWD2022 amusement - watching companies scramble to delete their fluffy IWD Tweets after @PayGapApp re-tweets them - but with their gender pay-gap stats attached. I deeply salute whoever thought of this. It's deadly genius.

This article is horrendous, how it was allowed to be written, People just think it’s ok to ridicule fat people, I don’t know a single person who fights fatphopia other than plus size people

To spare you all from reading the article - I did, and it's even worse than it sounds. Liz Jones, who lives with an eating disorder herself, spews fatphobic bile in order to promote her first novel. I hope it ends up pulped into porridge.

That episode was insane, but what a cliffhanger #LineOfDuty (and @martin_compston what a shot to that sniper)

Have you had a read of this month's WI Life magazine? In February Chloe from WI Life joined us at our nipple tassel making workshop run by @CharlieDoodleDo for our LadySkillers. There's a lovely write up and some pictures of the final product too! 😍 #LadySkillers #ManchesterWI

I was 18 out with friends, I was grabbed by a man & half dragged from the club dance floor before I really realised what was happening, luckily there was an on the ball security guard or I dread to think what could of happened- all women have these stories, all men need to listen

It’s depressing being a women on the internet today (all days!) Stop blaming women, stop saying not all men and start listening to women’s lived experiences and take accountability to educate yourself on them
