Reminder:
Historically we see a rise of weight loss material/obsession with body aesthetic and thinness as a sign of fascism.

Feeling that society hates your fatness more intensely isn't you being paranoid or overreacting, and it's not your fault.

One of my favourite things to do is to make jokes about my fatness that don't have me/my fatness as the punchline, because it subverts the expectation that fat people should be silent about our bodies.

Like, I commented on a post on Fetlife earlier today and the OP responded "thanks for weighing in". To which I replied "are you calling me fat?".

I mean, I thought it was hilarious.

currently reading "You Just Need to Lose Weight" and 19 Other Myths About Fat People by Aubrey Gordon (co-host of #MaintenancePhase), which states:

"In 2004, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) published 'Actual Causes of Death in the United States, 2000,' the study that first trumpeted that some four hundred thousand Americans died each year simply from being fat."

I already have some idea of how this story will go, from listening to Maintenance Phase's episode on The French Paradox*, and my little goblin brain wants to publish a study of Actual Causes of Death that proves that some millions of Americans die each year "under mysterious circumstances"

* the TL;DR version is: "cause of death is very hard to actually determine and is influenced to a great degree by policies and how forms are designed"

for the whole story, check the episode out:
