I’m thinking of Chris Smalls. And about how, because he’s Black, no Greta Thunberg, no celebrity, no darling of the liberal class, he might not make it out alive. Blackness, when vulnerable and on its knees, is a white supremacist fantasy.

The main client I had before I moved to LA had me come back for a fitting. They ended up telling my agency that I would need to get back down to a 1X if I wanted to work again. It’s a shame that even as a plus size model, you have to be the smallest version of plus size.
people like steven crowder will see a fat person and tell them they should exercise and “get healthier” and then they do that and he mocks them for being a fat person exercising. you have no idea what “health” is you just hate seeing fat people exist
Remember March 2020 when disabled people told y’all this exact thing would happen?
…and you ignored us and left us for dead?
You pushed us off a cliff forgetting our ankles are tied together.
