THE WASHING MACHINE: THE SILENT REVOLUTION THAT CHANGED THE WORLDThe washing machine isn’t just one of the most useful home appliances—it played a massive role in something much bigger: freeing up women’s time. Before it came along, doing the laundry was an hours-long (or even days-long) job, done by hand, in cold water, with a ton of physical effort. It was such a grind that entire days were set aside just for washing clothes.
The first electric washing machine was invented in the early 20th century, but it didn’t become common until after World War II. As it made its way into households, it freed up countless hours each week and helped open the door for women to join the workforce. It’s no exaggeration to say that the washing machine gave a massive boost to feminism—quietly but powerfully.
🌀 Fun fact: In 2009, The Economist published a list of the most important inventions of the modern era… and the washing machine ranked higher than the internet and mobile phones. They literally said it “did more for women’s liberation than the right to vote.”

Workout for the week: Done ✅
SLAVE LEIA OUTFITCarrie Fisher hated the metal bikini she had to wear as Jabba’s prisoner.
The famous “Slave Leia outfit” from Return of the Jedi was as uncomfortable as it was revealing. Parts of it were made of rigid metal, making it nearly impossible to move or sit normally. Every time Carrie leaned back, the costume would shift and expose more than intended, so the crew had to constantly fix it between takes.
Over time, the outfit—originally meant to sexualize the character—became an iconic (and very controversial) symbol of the saga. Carrie despised it, but with her signature biting humor, she took ownership of it and made sure everyone knew Leia was more than just a pretty face chained to a giant slug.
When Disney bought Lucasfilm, they began "cleaning up" the franchise’s image—and the golden bikini was one of the first things to go. For years, it had been a pop culture symbol (and a recurring fan fantasy), but Disney’s new direction wasn’t having it. In 2015, they stopped producing official figures, posters, and merch featuring the outfit, and many online stores pulled it from their shelves. The official line? They didn’t want to sexualize such an important female character… even though they’d been selling exactly that for decades.
The Slave Leia look even made it to Friends. In one of the show’s most iconic scenes, Ross tells Rachel that his biggest fantasy is seeing her dressed like Princess Leia—with the infamous bikini, of course. What starts as a punchline ends up confirming that the look had officially reached pop culture status, right up there with the most recognizable Halloween costumes.
