Filipiñana

There's a bit of apocrypha surrounding this national hero, a pregnant woman, and something about a watermelon, so reading about this woman (in this article) came as a surprise, especially with the background regarding the man's book here. Also, if anyone should decide to get a dress with the sleeves in the article's image, I'd say to be careful with any lace in there - it gets itchy when that material pokes out of the inner seam surrounding the shoulder.

Thank you for reminding me of those who fought for independence, and of those who continue to fight for it.

Ending with this because it's an adorable counter to at least three articles on misophonia rerunning in the newsfeed.
