One of them wants to see as much fanart where Aziraphale is round and big and chubby and soft
The other one doesn't know what to make of it, since Michael is objectively not even that big, but people view his chub and exaggerate it as bigger than it actually is and it makes you feel bad for actually fat individuals and how they are perceived by society
people drawing nimona skinny makes me so so sad like did you not see the same movie as me, did you not read the same graphic novel? that shit is about not forcing people into the binary and how societal standards are dangerous.
and then you go "yeah all of that except not for fat people :)"
my sibling in Christ nearly every other protagonist is skinny
i hate how skinnified alternative spaces are, "shops that sell alt clothing!!" and my fat ass can't enter in a pant from said store if without cutting my blood flow.
also, the fact that the moment fat people are alternative is super funny!! and a meme!!!! a respected artist of the metalhead community literally named one of his fat characters an stylized slur!!!
the alt community is FULL of fatphobia at the point not even artists are respected, ask gerard way or george fisher
Guys my dads house is a irl fatspo like my step sister is like 450 pounds and is 16 yo and omg she eats sm.
I just purged the small fries and mozzarella sticks I just ate and she's eaten 3 times that and doesn't care. She also ate like 600 cals before eating that and still ate all of her food and the rest of mine that I gave her. It's so gross
"Emptiness is pure starvation is the cure"
Being fat is so humiliating, lose the weight its worth it.
i have an account on tiktok where i follow tons of delusional fatt1es who are very anti diet , anti ed , anti weight loss and see how they struggle to breathe while just talking its so fucking funny
like they will be like "going on a diet means... *heavy ass breathing* ..you're fatphobic.. *more heavy breathing* and if you lose weight.. you're fatphobic..!!" and by the end of it their face is red and their sweating because they cant function like a normal human being bc the fat in their body is LITERALLY crushing their lungs.
also, i wanna start following tags like "fat pride" or "fat liberation" on here so i can see what these delulus are spitting on here LULZ
Being weird about fat characters isnt progressive, stop immediately calling them soft, mom like, saying they look like they'd give good hugs??? Devoid of any attention to their actual personality traits, this is dehumanizing and infantilizing
One of my posts about the toxicity of fatphobia stereotypes was recently reblogged by a user called @/lagoonadelrey. In the post I was expressing the difficulty of others not taking disordered eating habits seriously unless you're skinny. Her response was "cuz u eat plenty and it shows w ur fat."
Upon a closer inspection, her ENTIRE PAGE is DEDICATED to the demeaning of fat people. Even admitted that in one of her reblogs. Her response to my post was tame in comparison to others. People sharing their insecurities online and her replying things like "yes because you're a fat bitch and no one will love you."
As both punks and Christians in this community (sometimes both😉)... I'm sure I don't have to tell any of you that it's our responsibility to put an end to hate speech.
If we can get enough people to report her, we can stop the possibility of an already insecure person's mental health being further crushed by the hateful, unintelligent, cruel babble of an uneducated and indoctrinated individual. Here's a link to her page:
I would also like to add that there are folks who have thyroid and hormone-related illnesses, and there are even medications that can cause fluctuations in our body weight, and many of times make it difficult to lose weight. Aging and lifestyle changes and genetics also play a factor. No matter the case, another person's body is not your business.
I've done tons of research on the history of fatphobia and it's racist and classist roots in the US, so anytime I see a "former fattie" berate fat people online (especially former white fat women with socioeconomic privileges too), there's always something to unpack.
And I like how this Creator hits the nail on the head, so to speak. You can individually go on a weight loss venture -that's not the issue here. Reinforcing healthist and weight loss discourses BECAUSE of how pervasive body sizeism is -is what's incredibly damaging and problematic here.
It's just always so alarming to me (especially one Youtuber I'm thinking on whose entire channel calls fat liberation dangerous), that these specific people want to 'fit into' the boxes that many societies have normalized as okay -thin equals pretty and thin always equals healthy (which is not always the case and IS an ableist way of viewing health and well being).
