Seems like it’s high time American women did this too.
50 years ago today, on October 24, 1975, women shut down #Iceland. They walked out of their homes and workplaces to highlight the importance of women in Icelandic society. No housework, no child care, no office work. The country came to a complete standstill.
That day has been described as a watershed moment for Iceland. Today, the country ranks as one of the most gender-equal in the world.
At the time of the “day off” in 1975, Iceland’s pay gap was 40%. As of 2022, it has decreased to 9.7%, making Iceland one of the few countries in the world where women are paid almost as much as men.
Yet globally, we still have work to do. The World Economic Forum’s 2025 Report shows the gender gap has only closed slightly, from 68.6% in 2024 to 69.0% in 2025. At the current pace, it will take 123 years to reach full parity. source

Being an adult is terrible but I thank God every day that I don't have to randomly run a mile at noon against my will and then go on about my day like we did in school source

I disagree with the wording of "cooking is art, baking is science". No, art has far lower stakes than cooking - if you set out to make art, it is simply not possible to fuck up so bad that the end result would not count as art if you're still willing to call it so. It might be ugly as hell and look nothing like what you meant it to be, but art is art nonetheless. However, if you start cooking with the goal of making food to eat, it is entirely possible and actually quite easy to fuck up so bad that the end result does not count as food, as it isn't something you could or should eat.
Cooking is a science: you can, should, and even must fuck around to find out, as even if you end up making something terrible, you have now learned what happens if you do that. You have gained valuable information. And sometimes, you accidentally strike gold and have invented something tasty and awesome. source

the crazy thing about doctor who is that it really is the best show ever for 30 seconds at a time. you never know when those 30 seconds will be. sometimes they happen multiple times in a single episode and sometimes you wait years and years and years. and the best part is those 30 seconds are surrounded by the worst show ever, which is also doctor who source
