Reformed oceanographer, turned #DataManagement professional, turned #TradeUnion officer. I’m interested in data as a tool of union activity, and unions’ role as the moderator of workplace data & tech
#tradeUnions ; #data ; science ; dogs ; #sewing ; equalities. Fundamentally ungovernable.
IDK who needs to hear this, but standard dress sizes are an mass-production convenience for the clothing industry, and in no way a reflection on how human bodies ‘ought’ to be shaped.
I can’t pretend I don’t have hang-ups about my body, but I am so fucking OVER spending a fortune on clothes that fail to reconcile my waist-to-hip ratio, then allowing the rag trade tell me it’s MY defect rather than THEIRS.
(Yes, this is the main reason why I got into #sewing/#dressmaking. That and the pockets.)
