Today I threw something on the wheel for the first time in a while. I made something, just not the thing I had planned to make, it suddenly flared out and became a bowl instead of a jar. Oh well.

Mycket bra bok om du är intresserad av träning, kost eller båda! Ger dig fakta och praktisk kunskap i en vettig kombo så att du kan styra din träning och kost som du själv vill. Alltid förankrat i forskning!
Tycker du att nutrition och träning är intressant? Uppskattar du dessutom att lära dig en del om forskning i ämnet? Då är kanske det här en bok för dig. Skriven av @jacobgudiol.traningslara.se och mig. Finns att köpa lite här och var online. Ett tips är att jämföra priser, för det varierar lite.

You know what's worse than being raised in the most patriarchal society where girls and women were treated as 2nd class citizens? Of less value than sons? It is being gaslighted by people telling you it wasn't like that and how women and girls were and are treated equally

Nine percent of those in the Rock-'n'-roll Hall of Fame are women.

I think these acts of microfeminism have a real, substantial impact. They work the same way as all the acts of "microsexism" that we encounter in every day life, that are so obvious to women but so hard for men to notice.
I'm loving this idea of microfeminism. About how every day habit the little things can change the world. I'm especially loving the school teacher that calls the dad first. These acts are not insignificant they sometimes matter more. What is your act of micro feminism? www.npr.org/2024/12/04/g...
