UGHHHHHH take a shot every time a makeup youtuber uploads a video on their diet or on how sugar ruined their life. paragraph of complaining and criticism of diet culture under cut, ed tw but in a very anti-ed way.
like please just tell me about mascara and stuff, I do not want to be sold a program on how to have an eating disorder. I have SO many rants about this but I'll leave it at this for now: unless done in a very specific and mentally healthy way, restricting categories of food is almost always going to be your first step down a slippery slope, allergies excluded. Restricting one category leads to labeling it as bad, so you assign moral worth to food, so you start trying to 'deserve' your food, et cetera, down you go on that slope.
#tw ed mention#tw ed#ed mention#cw ed#lowkey don't want to tag this because people with it blocked are the ones who may need to see it but i will tag#just in case it would have the opposite intended effect and just out of courtesy#apparently i have big societal advocacy opinions today#ableism. homophobia and sociology behind it. diet culture. having some Big Feelings about things today#I mean I always have big societal opinons i'm usually just too conflict avoidant to share them#because tumblr really likes to do this thing where they see a vaguely ambiguous statement and they take it the WAY wrong worst way#like ok. in the other post. i mention how southern poverty can lead to people being stuck in their homophobic church town.#and i'm waiting for the anon to be like 'oh so you're saying to give all homophobes money'#like no i didn't say that#i said poverty can lead to being stuck somewhere that nurtures bigotry#sigh. we'll see how this goes over but no angry people yet#I think because it's still in my lovely little circle#usually i only get weird stuff once a post breaches containment#but nobody here ever causes me issues#i mean it's anon but still#UGH the time i got t*rfs in my inbox after that one addition circled around#censoring so they cannot find this hopefully#ANYWAYS ok i'm done#ily guys#if you ever DO have issue with something i said then do let me know#i do not bite and chances are it was accidental#and if it wasn't accidental then i do enough college discussion boards to be able to NICELY AND CALMLY talk stuff out#though maybe not timely.... gonna go answer dms on that note actually#left them marinating like a steak
