@Galdrakinn I learned, from one of the Far Side collections (how topical for this weekend!), that Gary Larson was not allowed the use the word "dork" because its original definition was "a whale's penis".

As I learn to sew as an adult, four things come together to irk me:

- I was, through society and directly, not taught anything coded as feminine;
- sewing, and all crafting, is coded as feminine;
- all things coded as feminine, including crafting, is considered lessor;
- living sustainability and outside of consumerism is, often, a form of crafting.

I see what we did there, and I won't stand for it!

If you're updating your terms and privacy policy because of GDPR, then I know I should not have trusted you before and that I should not trust you now.

I refuse to put a subject on my emails. That is self censorship and moreover when I leave the subject line blank I get higher engagement. As a lover of free speech I will not add subjects at my emails!
