Let’s just set the record straight: Many women have thigh rub. Our thighs touch, and we will not be shamed out of wearing our most comfortable leggings whether anyone likes it or not.

Final Glimpse: The Last Image from a Failing Black Hole Satellite. Content Warning.
On February 17th of this year, the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency embarked on a groundbreaking mission by launching a rocket carrying the Hitomi satellite.
