the fact that these brands are now taking the initiative to respond to the people who look through their shallow marketing strategies with “UUUUHHH ACTUALLY YOU’RE THE REAL CRINGE FOR NOT SHUTTING UP AND LAUGHING AT OUR JOKES LIKE A GOOD LITTLE CUSTOMER” shows that we really need to get straight to point z already and start guillotining CEOs
homeless people are part of your community!!!!! get with it!!!!!!!!!!!!! they’re not outside interlopers they’re not invaders they’re not vermin. homeless people = people deprived of homes, they are Victims and you should be angry on their behalf because people are being deprived of shelter in Your Community
I lost weight when I went on my medication initially because it made me very sick and when I told people that was why, more than a couple would say stuff like “I wish I could get some of that” like you want a weird disorder that is awful and to be violently ill? just to be skinnier?
“After I got the biopsies, they did another mammogram. And I had to have my shirt off. And I was standing there at the machine. And the technician said, oh my gosh, you have such a flat stomach. What is your secret? And I was like, oh, I’m dying.“

More proof that the ideal of thinness never had anything to do with health.
I figured out that something was seriously wrong when my mom rapidly lost weight and it is still heartbreaking for me that she argued for a week about it being GOOD because she was slimmer. It took so much of persuasion to get her to visit the doctor where they confirmed that she has metastatic cancer. The fact that we’re in a system where symptoms of terrible conditions are considered okay as long as you look ‘slim’ is a nightmare and we’re living it.
My best friend had a parasitic illness in her stomach that caused her to throw up all the tine. I told her so many times to see a doctor but she thought it was okay because she was loosing weight so fast. Seriously if you start loosing weight at an abnormal speed please see a doctor.
If anyone doubts that prisons in the USA are basically a corporate business at this point.
God this is fucking cruel
Jails in Louisiana are like, uniquely evil even among the US penal system. There’s a reason the Louisiana State Penitentiary (Angola) is popularly known as “Angola Plantation.”
