    I can't see clearly

    We're so wrapped up in our own worlds, staring at screens, feeding our already firmly entrenched views with endless diatribes from like-minded souls that our capacity for flexibility and nuance has been all but irrevocably eroded

    Far from a feminist utopia

    One wonders whether, had the film come out a week or two earlier, this pink wave rolling into cinemas across the nation could have had a greater influence on voters and the results of the election might have been more conclusive

    Time to go

    Burn baby burn

    A visceral hate is still being propagated throughout Europe, thanks to the same malicious gossip and unfounded rumours levelled at people who do not adhere to what are purported to be society's norms

    Where's our apology?

    I admit that it is a symptom of how jaded and disillusioned I have become with governments that I don't expect an apology, ever, from any of them for making a bad situation worse

    Hopelessly, they voted for you
