    THIS. ADVERT. OMG.

    WE’VE DONE IT WE’VE FINALLY GONE FULL EOWYN and I approve

    YES.

    also where can  find this music?? Off to search the internet!!

    This is why I’m glad you are family –heard the music and went “I WANT TO DANCE TO THIS”

    I’ve officially been inspired by a period commercial

    What sold me was the inclusion of the ballerina.

    I mean the rest of it also awesome, sure. But. The acknowledgement of the shit they go through to look that beautiful and graceful and the inclusion of a trad-femme activity, I’m sold.

    FUCK. YES.

    That is the first menstrual product ad I’ve ever seen that mentioned blood, and that wasn’t even the most remarkable thing about it.

    I think the music is by A Tribe Called Red. I can’t remember the exact song, but all of their music is good.

    “Women see more blood than men…”

    “This is not my cat…”

    I wish to congratulate you all on your new cats.

    All of these people appear to have problems with tense. The correct phrase is “I did not (previously) have a cat”

    morrissey got scared by the sound of the ice cream truck and is now hiding under my bed, awh

    i should probably clarify that morrissey is the name of my kitten, there is not a 56 year old man under my bed

    i love this 

    honestly I’m too emotional to handle this right now

    This made my day

    perfect

    I’m all here for this trend of parents encouraging/accepting positive (read: respectful) relationships between labor-service workers and their kids.

    “dont fight hate with hate” so u admit, u hate us?

    “dont fight fire with fire” so u admit, u set the fire?

    this is like when people say “feminists just want to switch the roles so women are above men instead!”

    …so, you’re recognising that there is already an existing inequality and power imbalance

  • Sunscreen PSA

    (Be aware that this PSA applies to all bodies of water, even man made pools, as the chemicals will still be carried into the ocean.)

    It’s well known fact that the ocean is in critical danger from pollution. We are in the middle of a mass extinction event that is being severely advanced by human activity. The ocean drives the Earth’s life and weather. If it fails, we are doomed.

    As of today, over 90% of the Great Barrier Reef is dead.

    Gone.

    Decaying.

    Kaput.

    What can we possibly do to help?
    Switch to a reef safe sunscreen. Every little thing you do to take the pressure off of reefs will help in their recovery and preservation.

    Sunscreen isn’t reef safe? Huh?
    The main ingredient in a vast majority of sunscreen brands is something called oxybenzone along with a slew of other chemicals. Oxybenzone and the like is toxic to coral and damaging to fish and crustaceans. Even some “natural” ingredients such as mineral oil are deadly, as it biodegrades very slowly and is harmful to all sea life. It causes the corals to bleach themselves, a process in which the symbiotic algae is ejected from the coral. Coral can sometimes survive a bleaching event but with other pollutants and high heat, they almost never do.

    That’s awful! But if it’s in all sunscreen, how can I possibly be safe in the sun and save the reefs?
    That’s easy! Start using a “reef safe” sunscreen! These sunscreens contain only zinc or titanium oxide as the active ingredient, a powerful UVB and UVA blocker that is completely reef safe! It’s also great for those with sensitive skin.

    Awesome! Where can I find reef safe sunscreen?
    You can find reef safe sunscreen in dive shops and most stores that carry sunscreen. Just make sure the only active ingredients are “zinc oxide” or “titanium oxide”. Avoid oxybenzone and mineral oil at all cost! Online shops such as amazon also have dozens of excellent reef safe sunscreens.

    Do you have any recommendations?
    There are dozens of reef safe brands, so it’s up to you to decide depending on price and scent/unscented. I personally like Stream2Sea, Badger, Biodegradable Reef Safe by Tropical Seas, and Coral Safe.

    Is tanning oil okay?
    Unfortunately not! Tanning oil causes the same kind of oil damage as an oil spill. In small doses it’s not going to do much but keep in mind that millions if not billions of beach-goers deposit tanning oil into the ocean whenever they swim. It’s best to wash off any tanning oil before entering the ocean to swim. Hit the showers!

    Why should I even care that my sunscreen isn’t reef safe?
    One earth, one ocean. If the oceans fail, if the biodiversity plummets, if the reefs die, the water turns to toxic sludge, then we are all doomed. We lose a source of food. We lose a source of capital. We lose ways of life. We lose cultures. We will lose the Earth. If the oceans go, humanity will soon follow.

    Don’t let the next generation grow up with stories of “….back when the reefs still existed”

    Here’s a source!

    Thank you!

    Governor Inslee will be raising the Gay Pride flag and then lowering it to half-staff on Wednesday (today) at the Flag Circle on the Capitol Campus at 3:15 p.m.

    (I’m at work, but thought other people might like to know and attend)

    (I am planning to be down at pride on Sunday, with my emergency face paint kit in case anyone needs a rainbow)

    I shall be at the Capitol Campus along with my wife :)

    And…hopefully I’ll make it to Pride*

    Sadly not in it… though

    * Assuming the night shifts don’t make my nearly gone lurgee reassert its power over me and make me spend another week lying on the couch.

    I hope it doesn’t rain on you today, and the cold stays away! No more illness for you.

    ‘tis the joy of working in a hospital in a new country. My body goes …
