Am I hanging my laundry out today? You bet your sweet patootie I am. The water sublimates right out. They smell amazing, like summer line dried laundry but 10 times better. Pro tip for winter laundry hanging: wear gloves. Wet fingers are no fun in freezing weather.

Nancy Mace has introduced a federal bathroom ban which would ban trans people from bathrooms in DCA and Dulles airports, national park bathrooms, museum bathrooms, and all federal building bathrooms.

Thank you!

Done! And reposted on this and other platforms. Hold your reps accountable, everyone.
