Bless his heart. Being a skinny man, he’s sort of new to the whole concept of ‘taking-pictures-of-fat-girls-eating-4-da-lulz’.
‘What if she just wanted to take a picture of the crepe?’, he asked, as her group of friends arrived at the crepe stand asking each other what was that thing the creper was serving to us. ‘Well, she was still RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE CREPE STAND while we...

Did I say ‘moments’? I meant ‘most of the fucking time’!
And when in Spanish they still use euphemisms like ‘gordita’, ‘rellenita’, ‘voluptuosa’, ‘llenita’, ‘gordibuena’ (ugh!), or clinical disasters like ‘con sobrepeso’, ‘obesa’, et al.
Yeah, I know they’re taking baby steps, but they’re like those babies who crawl for months and months and months. And it...

I HATE TERRY RICHARDSON

…but i mostly hate it when he photographs people i like and respect. not just because it makes me question them, but because it means my tumblr dashboard is filled with reblogs of photos of babes that queer people like such as chloe sevigny and freja beha… but they’re still photographs by terry richardson. i used to have a “unfollow” if people post a) b) or c) (either things i find...
TW: diet talk, body shame, fatphobia
tumblinfeminist:
I was recently disturbed and disappointed that a local plus size feminist sex worker I admired decided to tweet about how she wanted to lose some weight. That part is not what disturbs or offends me. She has had many health issues relating to her weight, so I’m happy for her that she is making the changes she feels are necessary to improve her own health.
However, her posts...

GOOD.

All this series I’ve been trying to see the bright sides of it, not write it off and enjoy it as much as poss despite feeling its lost something.
This episode has actually managed to succeed in pissing me off. Jesus fucking Christ. I remember when killing someone was a source of drama and tension, seems like those days are long gone.
Although lol at the Americans whining about spoilers,...

What Happens When Class Warriors Ignore Race?
blackamazon:
karnythia:
One of the things I think progressives who ignore history don’t understand is that just like racism is taught, so is distrust. Especially in Af-Am households where our parents & grandparents who have lived through Jim Crow, Cointelpro, Reaganomics, & the War on Drugs (better titled the War on Inner City Communities) talk to us early & often about how to stay...

Really?! Aw love can I hug you?
Aww I just saw this. Yeah, work related - you guys certainly know how to mount angry campaigns! (Not that I blame you, AT ALL, it’s just I always feel so powerless.)
You can give me a hug, Natalie! And your Strictly Ballroom posts have been immensely happy-making. One of my fave...

Okay Misfits, this thing with Alisha & sex? SO FUCKING OVER IT! Give this girl a story that doesn’t involve her playing into the Jezebel stereotype. Every other character gets some kind of nuanced storyline beyond their hormones, what the fuck is the writer’s problem with Alisha?
Thank you.

Trans* Day of Remembrance
femmesandfamily:
Trans* Day of Remembrance is not only a time to honor those in our community who have been killed or lost their lives for being who they are. Is it also a time to celebrate those who continue to live and fight. It is a time to become better in our allyship and to remember that ALL cis people are implicated in transphobia.
