Oh, go boil your head in a bag. Did you,a parent of two, just seriously show up for an article about fertility treatment to bang on about how infertile people should just learn to love their inability to conceive because it’s soooook selfish to want children? Why not tell us to ‘just adopt’, too, to put a fucking…

I always wonder what the forced-birth crowd make of people who only exist because their mother had a prior abortion. Ursula Le Guin, for example, wrote and spoke very powerfully about how, following an abortion as a young woman, she went on to marry a man she’d never have met if she’d had a child, and had three…

Anyone who does a pregnancy-related April Fools ‘joke’ really can go fuck themselves. Signed, an infertile person who has spent FIVE FUCKING YEARS trying to get pregnant.

I still cherish the memory of how Saint was born right when the was a major storm called Storm Desmond happening, so that was trending on Twitter and people assumed it was his name. (And quite honestly I would a shit sight rather be called Storm Desmond than Saint.)

Waves from the UK! Pretty sure I live in a free society.

Came to say this. It is so good IT IS SO GOOD and I don’t know why everyone hasn't seen it. You're missing out, people.

Well WE don’t fucking want him either...

Ummm, that actually has quite a complicated answer but I’ll do my best!

Some couples who have a moral quandary around IVF versus their belief that life begins at conception (or else those who just feel squicky about having frozen embryos they aren’t intending to use) will opt for what’s called ‘compassionate transfer’ once they’ve completed their family, which is to say transferring the…

I’m sorry for all the pain you’ve faced and still face. I am glad you’re alive in the world.

Ah. That's a tricky one; I hope you find a balance that works for you. Will there be any evening protests or anything you could do outside of work time? A lot of my colleagues are going to a local protest here after work, rather than taking the day off and going to London.

Awesomeness?

The main protest is in London, and everywhere else he’s going they can keep him away from people anyway so on balance I thought I might as well stick with the big protest and bump up the numbers there. 

I’m confidently relying on Scotland to give him hell. Have a great time!

I need to get back, sadly; I have a bit of MA coursework that needs to not suck as much as it currently does.

I appliquéd the motherfucker. I didn't think the depth of my contempt could be properly captured any other way. It's positively mediaeval.

I booked the day off work, and my train tickets to London, the moment Trump’s visit date was confirmed. I’ve been saying all along that the orange cockwomble will inevitably chicken out of coming, but after the time I put into making my protest banner last weekend, the fucker had better actually come. (I mean, I know…

Can we just take a moment to appreciate Elvis Costello’s song ‘Hoover Factory’, which I love because my dad used to work in the actual Hoover factory. Not many factories get their own song, and that one deserved it.

Nicolas Cage once turned on the Christmas lights in Bath because someone stuck a note through his door asking if he’d do it, which is more than can be said for Johnny Depp.

Come friendly bombs, and all that.
