Hey I’m Beet, 27, she/they butch, and this is my blog for queer weight gain thoughts and art.
Please note that anyone who follows me without their age in their bio/pinned post will be blocked.
If you’re here for my art and OCs, you can see more of them using their tag, which you can find in the tags of this post.
I'm really into the idea of a normally stoic feeder being called out for their tendencies by a third party.
Like, the feeder and feeder are on a double date with some friends. They drink, eat dinner, chat, and then the feeder is cornered by one of the other couple, who just casually slides in "So you're really into her new weight, huh?"
And it's all the feeder can do to keep her cool, she just scowls and tries valiantly not to blush even as she can feel heat rising to her cheeks. Meanwhile her friend is laughing "Oh please, you were practically drooling over her while we were eating, so either you really hate the extra pounds, or you're crazy for it. And you both seem pretty happy together still sooo~"
For the rest of the night this friend is making subtle remarks about food, about how good the feedee looks, about how she should have something extra to eat, all to see the feeder's normally unreadable expression twist in a flush of attraction.
We need more vampire feedism stories where the vampire gets fat. Where they glut themselves on blood night after night and that bloated, sloshing belly starts to linger long after a feast has occurred. Where two immortals meet up infrequently over the centuries and note the changes and fluctuations in each-other’s weights. Where a vampires begins dating and feeding from a stunning and beautifully fat human, and their rich blood begins adding to the vampire’s waistline, much to the human’s delight.
would you ever draw yourself?
yea okay

if all your ocs at a similar size all started gaining intentionally who do you imagine would work themselves up to immobility the quickest.
Interesting… allow me to twist the prompt slightly.
A set of characters are all suddenly given free, unlimited access to high quality food in a community which is devoid of judgement for weight and weight gain, and offers widespread accessibility options for those of large -and extremely large- sizes.
Leave your characters to settle in for a year or two, and where will their weights be? Who has resisted weight gain? Who is trying to resist weight gain? Who has abandoned their restraint around food and at what point did that happen?
And of course, how big are they all?
I made a graph about it

i love all these timeskip sequences with your ocs getting bigger and happier. Hope to see who is next
thank you so much! They’re very satisfying to make but by god. By god my motivation to work on them is fleeting.
Beating The Heat While Fat: Torso Skin Folds
Being fat in summer is hard for a lot of reasons, and one of them is skin folds. This is because skin folds love to trap moisture, and moisture+heat=bad. And moisture+heat+friction=worse.
When you have skin folds, summer can really suck. I'm not going to touch on any of the mental and emotional issues that come from the way fat bodies are treated- I'm talking about the physical issues that come from heat. Fat people sweat more! Our body fat acts as an insulator, meaning that we have to put out more sweat for evaporative cooling to be effective- and trust me, it's not always that effective.
There are lots of places skin folds develop, but the two I'm going to focus on today are abdominal and chest skin folds, and give you some specific information and recommendations for what you can do about them.
The abdominal skin fold, also known as apron belly, is tissue that hangs down over your abdomen and upper pubic area. The more technical term for this is a pannus. This tends to be a skin fold with a lot of surface area, since it usually goes from hip to hip, the whole length of your front. Pannus can also develop after a pregnancy, or after weight loss (and weight loss surgery). The principle is the same- the area under it needs to be cared for no matter how it develops!
Chest skin folds are probably the most common type of skin fold because most people with breasts has them. But you don't need mammary tissue to develop this skin fold! Anybody, regardless of sex, can develop overlapping skin on their chest. There's many more protective products available for people with breasts, due to the cultural expectation of bra wearing. But for folks with gynecomastia or pseudogynecomastia, there's less information and resources out there.
By the way: gynecomastia is excess breast gland tissue that develops in men/AMAB people. Pseudogynecomastia is when the glands don't develop but the fat deposits do. Externally and visually, they're very similar, but there are some physiological differences that... don't matter for this piece honestly. Whether it's glands or fat, the tissue is still there, and still needs to be taken care of!
Skin Fold Skin Care
Nobody teaches you this stuff, so don't feel bad if you don't know it. When you're fat, nobody ever tells you how to take care of your skin, unless they're shaming you for it. Usually the only people who care about fat people's comfort are other fat people. So let's talk about how to take care of your skin folds in the summer.
The key elements to skin fold care and comfort are keeping the skin dry, but also keeping it hydrated. Sounds a little paradoxical, I know, but when I say "dry" I'm referring to the surface of the skin. You have sweat glands all over your body, and when you sweat on the surface of your skin, it evaporates or it's wicked away by your clothes. But when air can't get to it because it's under a skin fold, the moisture just stays there. And that's not good!
Moisture trapped between skin folds can lead to a few things that aren't a lot of fun. It can promote skin yeast infections and bacterial infections. It can lead to intertrigo, a red bumpy friction rash. Heat rash is more likely in the summer... because, well, it's hot.
One of the best things you can do is introduce a barrier between the sides of the skin fold. This can be barrier cream (my least favorite, it's messy), body powder, friction gel (like the kind of thing you use for chub rub on your thighs- think Gold Bond or Bodyglide sticks, or Monistat anti-chafing gel), or a physical barrier made from soft cloth.
For a pannus, you can get these things called tummy liners that are a crescent-shaped band of cloth. You lift up the pannus, lay the band against your upper pubic area, and let the skin fold hold it in place. Some people will tuck the front of their underwear under the skin fold, but for others this is less comfortable. And this whole thing is about keeping you comfortable, so do what feels right.
If you have breasts, a bra with cups is a great way to help keep them dry. A bra without cups will often squish them together, and while it can still keep the area under your breasts dry, it can promote moisture between the breasts. For some people, this isn't a problem- it all depends on the size and shape of your body. The cups don't have to be wired- they just need to keep your breasts separated so that they're not rubbing against each other.
If you don't want to wear a bra with cups, or if you don't like the feeling of wearing a bra at all, or if you want extra sweat protection, you can get cotton bra liners, just like the tummy liners. They work the same way- lift your breasts or chest tissue and put the liner in the fold beneath. If you have a small skin fold that doesn't come down very far, this might not work so well, but if you have a larger skin fold that's got more than half an inch or so of overlap, this should stay in place just fine.
You can also of course wear bra liners with with bras. The band will hold it the liner in place, adding an extra layer of padding and sweat protection. But if you don't wear a bra, if your breasts or chest tissue is substantial enough, it will stay in place.
Bra liners are flat. If you wear one, unless you're shirtless, nobody will know. They can help keep you dry, even if you don't have developed breast tissue- like think about the skin folds that fat people without breasts get.
Even if you're not getting a shower before bed, it's a good idea to take a gentle wipe and swipe in between the skin folds. It'll help soothe the skin and prevent bacteria or yeast from colonizing the surface. Be sure to wash the folds with a gentle, ph balanced soap or cleanser. And when you get out of the water, whether that's a shower, bath, pool, lake, whatever, take some time to dry your skin folds. Don't rub- pat them dry. Rubbing can irritate them. It's easy to forget, but you'll be glad you did. This kind of hygiene practice makes the skin feel nicer, calmer, and less irritated, and you deserve to be comfortable!
Hydrate or Die-Drate
When you're fat, you need to drink more water than smaller-bodied people. We sweat more and we have more surface area to our skin, which means more sweat glands, which means we lose more water. The best way to do this is simply to drink more. Drinking will help keep you cool and replenish the water lost to sweat anyways, so it's really important to keep that up in the summer, when it's hot!
If you don't like plain water, no worries! All liquid counts! I drink a lot of iced tea- even though it has caffeine and caffeine is a diuretic, the net effect is not dehydrating. And everything with water content counts, including the food you eat. Watermelon is 92% water. Cucumbers are 90% water. Popsicles are almost entirely water with some sugar in there. Get them at the store, or make some ice pops in the freezer with your favorite fruits. Freeze grapes, they're super delicious when frozen, and grapes are like 82% water. Try to think about your daily snacks and meals in terms of water, and see where you can add a little more hydration!
Now, you may want to know, how much is enough? The old 8 glasses a day adage isn't really accurate. The current science suggests 3,000 ml for men and 2,200 ml for women, but where do these numbers come from? The fact that there's a sex difference suggests that this is based on average body size- and it turns out these numbers come from European population studies that did not include a lot of fat people. So I did some more hunting and some reliable, but not peer-reviewed sources, suggest that you should drink about half an ounce of water per your weight in pounds. That's an easy enough metric to understand! And you can always drink a little more. While you may have heard of people becoming sick from water intoxication, that's extremely rare.
So in conclusion: drink lots of water and keep the area underneath your skin folds dry. Allow yourself to prioritize your comfort and don't feel bad about the skin you're in. Eat a popsicle.
Feel free to add on with any additions and other helpful tips, but remember: fatphobic commentary is not welcome here, and mean comments will be removed. Advice to lose weight is not helpful- even if someone is losing weight, they still have to live in the body they have now. And that body deserves to be cared for.
Your art and prose are peak. Many good fortune to you
the ultimate compliment thank you. I owe it all to fat people.

Forever on my evil mad scientist schtick.
A scientist whose partner has been pestering her to tell them what her kink is so that they can play around with it together.
The scientist has been pretty tight lipped about the whole thing (because her partner is only a small thing, would they even be interested in gaining weight?), but several months of poking and prodding and whining eventually convinces her to inflict share her deepest desires with them.
She presents her partner with a pill, instructing them to take it when they get in from work. They're not allowed to know what the pill does, and they're not allowed to remove or adjust any of their smart work clothes until the scientist gives them permission.
Her partner agrees, fully aware that the ramifications could be any kind of uncomfortable or even painful bodily horrors - but they’re a good lap dog, so they do as they’re told.
Knowing that the scientist usually gets home later in the night, her partner treats the evening as normal. They swallow the pill as directed and then set about making dinner, not noticing any immediate effects.
When a tightness forms in their clothes about the waist, they attribute it to an over-ambitious portion of food, something which can be easily solved by a post-meal nap.
They’re awoken by a constricting band digging into their waist, and it’s only when they look down at the rising slope of their newly-formed gut that they realise what’s going on. A cold shock jolts them fully awake, sitting up to see fabric straining around meatier arms and thighs, a poke to their skin identifying nothing but soft lard being packed onto their frame.
The pill is fattening them up, and they don’t know when it will stop.
By the time the scientist arrives home, she’s treated to the sight of her partner a good 60 pounds heavier. Adorably plump with a soft jaw and burgeoning double chin, the extra fat threatens to split the seams of their work clothes, hugging every delicious new bulge of their body. The button of their slacks has snapped off already (and it’s a shame to have missed that moment), leaving a swell of lower belly on full display, sat comfortably cushioned upon two plush thighs.
Her partner looks at her from their place on the sofa, their expression deadpan. “Is this what you wanted to see?” They ask, palming the side of their rounded stomach for emphasis. The scientist grins wolfishly. ”Oh no. I wanted to make you a good 200 pounds fatter, but I figured it best to ease you into the process.”
I just want to say I like the way you draw fat women. Everyone does them super exaggerated and curvy, which is nice, but you do rectangular absolute units with big arms and faces. It’s a nice change of pace and I don’t know of anyone else who draws them quite like you.
Thank you so much the kind ask!! I love fat faces, I love fat arms, I love fat legs, I love fat hands - these are all things I want to draw well because I think they're hot and beautiful, especially on fat women who are built like brick shithouses!!!
Ouugh the new Slay the Spire character... The Regent... this one's perfect for fattening...
Whatever they eat they need more of it~

Game mechanic where the merchant you get equipment from grows fatter and wealthier the more you buy from them…
It’s good at first, because they were selling things down a shady looking alley, and the money was enough to get them a stall in the market. Plus now they can afford to eat regularly, and don't look so stick-thin.
Eventually the stall got upgraded to a shop - which hopefully means that they’re getting more business too, because you definitely haven’t spent enough to rent out a building, right?
It doesn’t matter either way; somehow they always stock exactly what you need, and even if prices are going up lately, at least the new furnishings look nice. Almost as nice as the new clothes that cling to the merchant’s blossoming gut.
Things start to get a little ridiculous when they begin classing their wares as ‘artisanal’ and ‘boutique’. You’re sure to glare at them as you fork out the cash over a polished rosewood counter. They just smile pleasantly, double chin bulging over the top of their cravat.
Apparently the shop is closed for renovations now- but you’re on the heels of something big and need supplies, so you bang on the front door and shout until they have to let you in. They must have been in the middle of dinner; a sauce-stained napkin is tucked in to their shirt collar and they walk with a wide gait, back rolls jiggling as you follow them into the building.
You talk trade over food -their food, not yours. You’re not offered so much as a crumb as they dine heartily on fine cuisine, belly swelling forward where it rests on fat thighs. They belch loudly and laugh at your requests, asking a price for the gear that makes your jaw go slack. You don’t have half that amount.
“Can’t you let it slide this once? I’ve practically funded your entire business!”
“And you'll pay more still- if you want me to keep growing.”
