I have rivers of fortune flowing into me freely without stress. Infinite abundance in accordance with my highest good. Favor in all areas of my life are bound to me and ease is my natural disposition.

I would like to enter fatphobia into the chat. A lot of people ignore that this is also a contributing factor in the mistreatment of black women and femmes in the medical industry mainly because y’all agree with it cause you hate fat black women.
This man deserves an Emmy for episode 5 of Dave. Seeing someone portray what living with a mental illness is like made me cry cause it’s never shown on tv with such honesty and care especially for black folks. Thank you
@GaTaGED
This whole Lizzo ass out at the game shit is the perfect time to flex my fat positive/ fat body advocate muscle but the truth is fatphobia is so embedded into the minds of folks they don't even understand how them feeling it's inappropriate is fatphobic.
Hey guys you know you can enjoy a meal without calling yourself fat or big back if you are not in fact a fat person. Using body type as an insult to yourself when eating is a clear sign of disordered eating. Hope this helps.
I’ve felt so unwell in my body for the past 2 years. Every time I get an intense pain I wonder if it’s the one that will take me out. Its so hard to go from “normal” to constant pain in one way or another.
I really don’t be moved when someone who isn’t fat takes it upon themselves to announce their attraction to fat people.
Like okay??? You think you doing us a favor?
My fat advocacy is not to make non-fat folks see my humanity or convince them to see the wrong in their thinking. It's for fat folks who are buried under the burden of fatphobia to see themselves as whole and deserving of EVERYTHING in spite of being hated for existing.
So before my replies get ate up here’s what you should know. There is no insult you can throw at me that I haven’t heard or care about, most likely what you’re going to reply with will only prove my point, I’m not going to engage with you and will likely delete cause idc. 😘

1. My titties are a world wonder 2. My intuition is skrong af. 3. Quite literally have the body of goddess Venus of Willendorf 4. Sexual power is astronomical 5. I cook amazingly
I’m really over ppl acting like medical professionals (and I use that loosely) aren’t bias and don’t treat fat folks like were petulant children who don’t know better and talk at us instead of listening when we tell them the care we need.
@SimoneMariposa
I think its important to have solidarity with other fat folks who share similar marginalizations. The only time I feel obligated is when they're being met with fatphobia.

This racist teacher bitch said I had lice in elementary and my ma picked me up and took me straight to the dr and he was like girl this is dandruff. I ain’t trust yt wimmen since.
@OlayKnowless
Those critiques is the reason folks who are not fat were so comfortable taking up space in body positivity taking away the voices of people who are actually oppressed because of body size.
The thing that’s frustrating about documentaries like
#WhiteHotnetflix
is that it highlights ambercrombie and fitch as this bad apple of a company when the entire industry is like that. American retail is steeped in white supremacy marketed as americana. A&F was just overt.
Dont be too hard on yourself because you haven't found the right person to be with. It's ok to not settle but it's also ok to admit when you desire intimacy.
It’s never lost on me that when highlighting Intracommunal violence or traumatic discussions y’all are able to find visuals of dark skinned women. Had this been a prompt about “Black love” I’m willing to bet the dynamic would have been LWDM. Let’s interrogate that as well.
This is why I stopped trying to educate cause y’all really ate convinced that thin people stay thin by “balance” and it could never just be genetics and no matter what thin equals healthy. 🤢

@_benjvmins_
because obviously this girl does something to keep herself thin DESPITE the consumption rate. whether she works out, runs, or whatever, she’s balancing it, whereas large people just eat and… eat some more
I don’t think ppl understand how exhausting colorism is on every level and no one wants to confront it bc then you have to face your complicity in why you look for whiteness in Black ppl or you possess that proximity and don’t want to give up your hierarchical position.
@theariesfury
@hersheyhippo
What would surprise me is if he gets a Black partner after this. It’ll never be a dark skinned person but he needs to quit playing in our face.
It feels like how it feels to try and explain casual racism to white people who believe "race has nothing to do with it". Like who has time to argue with a brick wall. You aren't constantly haunted by fatphobia so of course you think "her size has nothing to do with".
I want Black women to win. I don't delight in our loss but I'm not mad that Cynthia Erivo didn't win an Oscar tonight. You don't get to insult black Americans and our struggle and culture then be awarded for representing us.
What we’re not going to do is talk about how Drake is not tough enough to be in the scene. You realize Houston backs this man? We don’t just back anybody. 😮💨🤣🙏
@mambetysblues
Before we throw Vince in there go watch his show and how he portrays the dark skinned women as antagonist against his light skinned love interest it’s very Donald glover-esque
And when you finally just relax and enjoy feeling good the pain comes back and the cycle starts over. There’s so much I want to do and I’m hoping I get to, I’m hoping I figure out what exactly is wrong with me so I can live free again.
Especially other fats (mainly smaller/acceptable) who die on the hill "I'm fat and I agree" yea sis that's called internalized fatphobia, you want a pat on the head from the very folks who hate to see in strait sized stores cause you can fit the largest size. Trash.
@thotscholar
@YourVillainArc
I’m sitting with a lot of discomfort around this but thank you for this perspective. There’s always internalized anti blackness to unpack.
When shit like this happens it's not only the responsibility of fat folks to educate others on why they're being fatphobic. I'm no longer interested in arguing with the majority of the population every time a fat person exists loudly in public makes them uncomfortable.
It takes alot of unpacking and paying attention to how fatphobia shows up in every fucking thing and 9/10 if you aren't fat and aware you won't invest that kind of effort into it so why would my fat, black, ass try to beg for your understanding. Fuck you tbh.
One day we’re going to talk about the ableism in “activism” and how folks don’t see the value in online activism outside of how it gives them visibility to brand build and profit off of the works of people who don’t have a platform because of their marginalizations.
Some of y’all taking up a lot of space in fat communities but you’re only fat by white standards. Your call to action is to only get your fav store to carry junior plus and don’t actually care about the way your privilege and centering yourself harms larger fat bodies.
