the majority of people reading this probably don't even know what lint-free wipes are, but they're basically just paper towels made in such a way that they can't release any dust or fibers, for use in clean rooms
i think they're also commonly the base material used for cleaning wipes, the ones that are pre-soaked in some kind of alcohol or bleach solution

@terrana Thank you! I hope so too.

LGBT rights, Poland, please boost
* talking about LGBT ppl/issues in schools;
* Pride marches and any other LGBT-related public events;
* public endorsement of same-sex marriage or rights;

Today, the Polish parliament will read a proposed law that makes it illegal to "promote homosexuality", including - I am not exaggerating - pretty much ANY positive talk of LGBT+ people and their rights in public settings.
And foreign media seem almost entirely silent on this.
The law was drafted a while ago, but didn't get into the Parliament for procedural reasons.
It EXPLICITLY bans e.g.:
