BREAKING: The Trump EPA is abandoning a rule that would strengthen limits on air pollution.

The EPA will no longer defend Biden-era limits on fine-particle pollution, which causes heart and lung disease.

Scientists say this move could lead to dirtier air and more deaths.

#Romancelandia, can we get this GFM moving again for Julia?

(remember: you can tip $0, GFM charges fees regardless! So even a little bit can make a difference if enough people drop those $10 or $5)

Thank you!
I have set up a gofundme to cover my medical bills, prescriptions and current expenses. The first goal is $900. I would appreciate sharing it around on social media. I will try to update as i get insurance sorted out.

Did a Google image search for young Joan Hickson and most of the results are this image on the left which is clearly not her. The one on the right is her. People truly cannot bear to let a woman have a big nose.

In all seriousness, the thing we’ve lost is that in “the old days,” your undergarments were what made your body the fashionable shape. There was no expectation, as there is now, that your body should be made into that shape by itself. Clothing did the work. And I like that idea.

I also made this brioche cowl that sort of looks like menorahs but subtly and also it's reversible (I considered duplicate stitching an actual menorah on there but decided it was too on the nose)

In a world where cruelty is standardized by a third of the country, please step up for retail workers and food service folks. If you aren't comfortable saying HEY THAT'S NOT COOL to someone who's rude, you can talk to that worker's boss to tell them how great the worker did in the face of rudeness.
