Unpopular Opinion,

The really insidious part of fatphobia, especially in medical settings, is that any and all weight loss is seen as a good thing when you're fat

For example. Today I noticed that I must've lost quite a bit of weight (a jacket I could barely zip up a few months ago now fits with room to spare), and I have no clue why. I eat. Eat a lot, actually, and a lot of snacks and sweets. I don't work out much, not nearly enough to explain anything

But if I were to go to a doctor, I'm 99% sure they'd just tell me it's good I'm losing weight and dismiss me

Unintentional weight loss is a symptom of a lot of conditions, but fat people regularly get dismissed

By the way, this is where the persistent myth of "being fat leads to health problems" comes from. Because it's true, but not in the way people are taught

Being fat leads to health issues, because the health issues of fat people get dismissed and ignored until it's too late

I just got back from seeing that new puss in boots movie. I have decided that it is a cinematic masterpiece.

Just finished watching Way of the Househusband, I fell in love with Masa. Come to realize there is no Masa on Character.ai. Anyway, I made one. That is my contribution to the world.

Don’t ask me why but I really want to read a Grinch x Martha May Whovier smut. She was the original monster fu*ker and we should treat her as such 😌

It's cool how this is a 60k note post when almost every word of it is untrue

Eat The Rich

She makes me so happy

Like, she’s Lawyer Barbie. She isn’t fat Barbie or a Barbie that has anything to do with food. No, she’s smart and secure and a lawyer.

Absolutely the animation is 5 stars the characters are just 👌🏻 and how they portray everything is amazing

to my fellow fans of animation and film in general: please please please, see puss in boots: the last wish in theatres if you get the chance. i mean it. it has no right being as good as it is and i’m very sad that there’s so little talk about it here on tumblr. i enjoyed every single character; they all serve a narrative purpose and everyone’s arcs are meaningful, including the worst of the villains. the worldbuilding & how the narrative plays with classic fairytale lore is extremely fun — a loving callback to early shrek that still feels like its own thing. the character designs are excellent. the animation is spider-verse levels of insane, with several transitionary moments that had my jaw on the floor. the music is beautiful. i was shocked by how just how dark the movie was willing to get at times, too; dealing with themes like death, mortality, animal / child abuse, commitment issues, and toxic masculinity. there’s a depiction of a panic attack that hit so close to home for me i was almost in tears, especially how they chose to resolve it. it was very touching and true to real life, which isn’t something you’d expect from a fantastical cartoon.

in an industry that’s being dominated by disney, we need to support films like this now more than ever or we’re not going to have many more of them. give it a shot if you can — i promise you won’t regret it.

“It’s literally impossible to be a woman.

You are so beautiful, and so smart, and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow, we're always doing it wrong?

You have to be thin, but not too thin, and you can never say you wanna be thin. You have to say you wanna be healthy, but also, you have to BE THIN.

You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass.

You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean.

You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas.

You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time.

You have to be a career woman, but also, always be looking out for other people.

You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is INSANE, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining!

You're supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood, but ALWAYS STAND OUT and ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL. But never forget that the system is rigged, so find a way to acknowledge that but ALSO, always be grateful!

You have to never get old. Never be rude. Never show off. Never be selfish. Never fall down. Never fail. Never show fear. Never get OUT OF LINE. It's too hard! It's too contradictory, and nobody gives you a medal or says 'thank you!' And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also, everything is your fault.

I'm just so tired of watching myself, and every single other woman tie herself into knots, so that people will like us.

And if all of that, is also true for a doll just representing a woman, then I don't even know." -Gloria the barbie movie

this is it. this is exactly it oh my god.
