Wondering if it’s too optimistic for the future if I start journaling the American coup and the start of a European war with Russia? In case my fictional grandkids need a first hand account of this batshittery for a school project.
Tariffs are taxes.
I don’t know the answer to that I’m afraid. Fox is not my news source.
Has anyone noticed that, when it comes to BBC reporting, they don’t call Trump; President Trump? He’s either Trump, or the US President.
They did not do this with Biden, who was referred to as “President Biden”.
Intentional? Or just hoping it’s bad dream?

Pre Christmas me - did I buy enough gifts / food / alcohol?
Post Christmas me - I did not need that much cheese and wine.
Out of office is set. Family arrive in 2 hours. House looks like a bomb has gone off, no food in and presents aren’t wrapped yet.
Merry Christmas 🎄
I’m now older than Kate McAllister in Home Alone. And now I understand how she managed to leave a kid at home.
*For the record, I only have 1 😳
White woman eco warrior: “we have a no cost way to collect data.”
Me: “so it requires no human to input it and it generates the data itself?”
WW: “…well, no.”
Me: “so it has a cost then.”
🤦♀️
Me: “you can’t blackmail factories for free data you, not they, need.”
White women in fashion: “But what if they say they’re too busy to help or don’t reply?”
Me: “still no.”
Maybe ask how much it will cost instead.
Authors receive a payment every time you borrow a book, audiobook or ebook from libraries in 35 countries. Those countries include the UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Germany to name but a few. Borrowing a book helps the author’s pocket as well as yours.
So much culture is missing because of the decline of magazines
A narrow walkway in Tokyo. The sides of the street are lined with shops and what look to be residences.
If we want better fashion culture in the US, we have to lower the cost of housing and commercial real estate, support independent craftspeople, build denser neighborhoods, improve walkability, and get rid of overly restrictive zoning laws. Let kook culture thrive.
There are some amazing glitters using a similar process as well!
🎵It’s just another mansplain Monday….🎵
(Sung to the tune of Manic Monday, obviously).
There’s something foreboding about the weekend before Black Friday when you work in sustainability and circularity 😳 buckle up….
Always got to ask what a business has to hide when they artificially inflate their stock prices with buybacks.
Don’t believe me? Just look at Burberry.
The international criminal court has finally issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu and Gallant.
There are reasonable grounds to suspect war crimes.
About bloody time.
And the second innovation is AI for production planning, which can reduce MOQs.
MOQs of course, are based on maximum efficiency of a line. AI gets us to that peak efficiency faster.
MannyAI (formerly Pattern Projects) have raised more than £1.2mil in their pre seed!
There are 2 areas of innovation we’re seeing that have the ability to really impact the fashion industry.
The first is nano chemistry.
Where naturally derived dyes can be altered to also have properties such as DWR or wicking.
Requiring only 1 process for dyeing and finishing.
Let’s hope they don’t water this one down later too 🙄
You just know that the impacts of climate change are making my hot flushes hotter 🙄
In all seriousness though, it’s probably the plastics. The amount of women with early and severe perimenopause is not normal.
NEW RESEARCH: 22 pesticides are linked to prostate cancer risk and four are linked to prostate cancer death. One (thiamethoxam) is an insecticide. Three (trifluralin, chloransulam-methyl, diflufenzopyr) are weedkillers.
Brand name of trifluralin is…Trust.

Climate targets from listed companies are going to push us to a 2.8 degree world according to Edie.com.
Doesn’t bode well when most fashion brands don’t know how they’re going to hit the targets they’ve set 😔
Remember when we were told polyester was an endocrine disrupter?
How many women in their late 30s / early 40s do you know with severe perimenopause symptoms who are in close contact with polyester?
I’m think garment workers and nurses.
Because I know a lot 😳
Andrew Bailey is right. Most people don't realise how shockingly *bad* is the UK's goods trade performance after Brexit and the pandemic. UK exports are 23% lower than the pre-2020 trend and imports are 16% below the trend.
Global warming is such false advertising! Excess carbon could make the AMOC (Atlantic Meriditional Overturning Circulation) fail, which would plunge the U.K. into an average temperature drop of -14C!
The mini ice age 200 years ago was a drop of -1C!
Completely agree with you. It was an exceptional article, thank you!
Sandra Steingraber details why the carbon sequestration plans of the U.K. government are somewhat whacky.
Are we better making the CO2 into plastics?
