I don't think most people fully grasp the importance of this decision. Millions of women have been denied or were denying themselves this life-changing therapy based on outdated information. I hope this also means more coverage from insurers, but I have rapidly lost much hope from them.
Hormone therapy drugs have carried box warning labels for years. The Food and Drug Administration is removing them, saying the risks were overstated. n.pr/3XlOySo
The FDA will lift warnings on hormone therapy for menopause

For anyone under 25, there’s never been a night sky without humans orbiting above. Countless people have worked to keep that going safely - an awe-inspiring act of engineering and perseverance. I am honored to have added small pieces of art to that story.

Trump's one-note, depth-lacking, roman bathhouse marble remodel of the Lincoln bathroom is one thing, but now that I look at the previous green deco remodel, all I see is this.. IYKYK

New patch released today: a commemorative for the Lunar Orbiter Program, styled in what I hope feels like a vintage 1965 release.

#SpacetoberChallenge Epilogue
Here's a proper scan (instead of pics under harsh LEDs) with a wee tweak to balance space's black levels from my uneven brushes/markers.
Had a blast, learned a few new things, and found it strangely relaxing sometimes.
Thanks @morgandenman.bsky.social for the fun!

Wrapping up #SpacetoberChallenge is the topic "Future". I'll probably make this a patch at some point, but for now just the artwork. Boots on Mars in my lifetime? Perhaps. Here's to hoping. Thank you @morgandenman.bsky.social for putting this monthly challenge together.

Today's #spacetoberchallenge topic is "orbit". These patches recognize the critical role the Soyuz Progress resupply spacecraft serve for crews on the ISS, particularly for fresh oxygen, water and fresh produce. They depict their payload in stylized orbits. ("Fresh Products, On Orbit")

#SpacetoberChallenge ! There are astronauts, there are cosmonauts and there are even astro-cosmonauts: those who have flown Soyuz and Shuttle/Crew Dragon. Don Pettit is one of those. Here's a patch he received during his last flight. The background is inspired by his amazing photography from orbit.

#SpacetoberChallenge topic today: "Habitat". We go to Utah in our van a lot and our favorite locale, hands down, is usually eyeshot of the Mars Desert Research Station. The terrain is so Mars-like, they do analog long-duration experiments and stays here with EVAs, rovers, etc.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

#spacetoberchallenge topic today is “Earth”. Our Pale Blue Dot. Our home. This patch is a simple expression of her rarity and fragility in this universe.

#spacetoberchallenge topic of the day is "Historical Mission(s)". I believe, to some degree, nearly every spaceflight is historical, but obviously some are more historical than others. These are a couple of commissions from 2024 commemorating pioneering Russian rescue pups Laika and Belka & Strelka.

#spacetoberchallenge today is "Jet/plane", Today I'll share some photos of #NASA 's Super Guppy outsized cargo transporter. In use since the Gemini area, these were taken when it brought the Space Shuttle Full Fuselage Trainer to the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

#SpacetoberChallenge Day 23: Space Station
I was fortunate to have the opportunity to design the official logo celebrating 25 years of continuous human presence aboard the International Space Station. Here is a photo of the logo in the Cupola on the ISS, taken by Jonny Kim.
