"You may think that the first test regarding how well period products absorb blood was maybe 30 to 40 years ago, and you know, that seems really reasonable. But it wasn’t—it was only a couple of weeks ago."

They're taking my breakfast.
Cottage cheese. Bowl. Salt and pepper.
Spoon.

I recently discovered that the Internet is gentrifying cottage cheese and it explains why it's so hard to find now even in rural ass North Carolina.

Also the Alex Ross Wonder Woman held a HUGE place of honor over the toddler bed and crib because his Wonder Woman was incredible.

Related to a conversation on a different thread I remember when 16 was a baby and I decorated his room with superhero posters and imagery everywhere and my mom said, "Why are you trying to turn her into a boy?"
And I said, "I don't understand what you mean. I wanted this room as a kid."
Turns out that 16 is in fact a trans boy, but a femme boy, and he adores pink and Squishmallows.
Wears skirts and jeans.
I'm so sick of the binary values.

I challenge everyone of you to seek out your own moment every day.
Don't rely on social media.
Just search for it.
If something weird comes up, don't click. Google it and then search for a source that's reputable.
If no reputable source exists - it's bullshit.
But you're gonna learn to avoid bullshit, and that's awesome.

There are people who are working with oysters to try to clean the oceans and help save the planet.
No we wouldn't eat these oysters.
But seriously, folks.

16 was a wee baby when this ad campaign was released, so I just showed it to him.
Because the world IS awesome.
Boom de yada. Every damn time I see something incredible I whisper it.
However- Discovery sucks ass now and that's a shame.
