Updated affirmations list
Ive done too many things wrong
What is wrong
Happiness gone
Fleeting feeling, carry on
Through blood and tears
Sugar and spice
Everything broken, Everything nice
Call in the morning, its not the same
Holding my head, holding my "shame"
Never a savior, never a saint
Never a patron, I shan't complain
You were a ghost, I was a hive
Never one moment I wasn't alive
Never a moment I wasn't the lie
Telling myself I'm broken inside
Telling myself the pain Has to hide
I've done too many things wrong
So leave me at morning, leave before dawn
I'm in the background, all in my head
Never a moment, hot in the dread
F*cked in the head, dying in bed
Blinking out conscious, coming in hot
I've got a feeling, and it's something I'm not
Tell me there's reason, tale older than time
Tell me of healing, f*ck it isn't mine
And you might say I'm crazy
But darling I've rehearsed
I've done too much wrong
To get a second verse

Oh how the turns have tabled....
From Twitter.
is it weird that as i got through the tweet my understanding of it lessens?
If you had a recent ancestor who went through starvation it actually altered their genetics and may have passed down genes to you that make you hold on to fat. So this tweet is more accurate than youâd think.
More on that.
Seriously, my body is expecting the next ice age.
OH MY FUCKING GOD.
MY FUCKING GREAT GRANDFATHER LITERALLY FLED LEBANON DUE TO A FUCKING FAMINE AND MY GRANDMOTHER AND DAD AND I ARE ALL FAT AS FUCKING HELL.
FUCK ME RUNNING I DID NOT KNOW THIS.
âŠThatâs going to apply also to anyone whose recent ancestors voluntarily dieted a lot, isnât it. Diet culture long-term causes more obesity. Sure, it takes decades to show up, but anything youâd hear today about childhood obesity would reflect that. Exercising is still very good for most people, but trying to lose weight shouldnât be the goal for most people, because a) it usually doesnât work very well or it comes back and b) your kids or grandkids could end up with extra wonky metabolisms. (And while fat itself is actually not that much of a problem if you keep your fitness up, it can be hard on your joints. Thatâs actually the biggest health risk if youâre âsmall end of fat,â under 40, and activeâjoint problems.)
THAT MOTHERFUCKING ARTIFICIAL FAMINE THATâS IT IâM GONNA FIGHT THE ENGLISHÂ
Honestly, âIâm gonna fight the Englishâ is a good reaction to a lot of things.
the âobesity epidemicâ in america is probably due to a combo of our grandparents living through the great depression and our parents being teens and young adults during the days of twiggy and heroin chic and the rise of diet culture.
combine that with the fact that gen x was the last generation allowed to play outside, pretty much, and the fact that everybody nowdays is working service jobs that exhaust them without working their muscles, and there is basically no way on earth youâre going to get a fit and healthy population without changing the basic structure of our society.
donât fall for the hype. donât focus on weight. itâs actually far more dangerous to be underweight than overweight. even with what is clinically defined as âmorbid obesityâ itâs possible to be healthy as a horse, if your bone structure and metabolism are set up for it and youâve got lots of muscle to support it.
on top of that, the charts for ideal weight are at least a generation out of date. they were compiled based on a population that didnât regularly get enough dairy and fresh produce, at a time when girls didnât do athletics in school. young women in the 1960âČs were measurably smaller than young women today. their bones were thinner, they had less muscle mass, their shoulders were more sloped, they had a smaller lung capacity â society discouraged them from being physically active past the age of ten or twelve, and they finished their physical development in a sedentary setting.
boys were plenty active, but just like the girls, they were eating just about nothing but red meat and starch and some mushy greens with the vitamins boiled out. the thing where the poor get fat because sugar and fat are cheap wasnât really happening yet, especially in rural areas; a farm kidâs diet was beef and wheat in the north, pork and corn in the south. âeat your vegetablesâ was such a hard sell because everything else was expensive and bland and overcooked. youâve seen the godawful cookbook excerpts from that time. mushy green beans and fried spam on a bed of mashed potatoes, seasoned with nothing but a pinch of white pepper.
sorry, that was kind of a tangent. i guess my point is, even the people who ate well by the standards of the time were malnourished compared to the standard of today. your lunch of a matcha cucumber smoothie and a cobb salad with one ounce of ham, one ounce of turkey, and 15 kinds of fresh vegetable, would give them the explosive shits because theyâve never had that much fiber in one place before. thereâs more vitamins and antioxidants in your black bean fajita dinner than they saw in a week.
so first of all, the idea of trying to be the same size and shape they were is absurd.
and second, if malnourishment in one generation primes the next two for protective fat retention, the combination of that and the incredible wealth of nutrition we have available to us today is obviously going to make us HYUGE.
instead of fighting it, we should embrace it. we could all be HUMAN BOULDERS OF MIGHT.
I know a number of gen z kids who are active, regularly exercise / do sports, and are mindful or careful about what they eat but who are considered overweight. Theyâre healthy kids. Theyâre strong and have energy. But theyâre repeatedly criticized by parents and doctors alike for being âfatâ. You wonder why so many kids have anxiety disorders? When youâre trying your best and are still told at every checkup that you need to stop eating junk food and sugar and lying on the couch watching tv because the doctor assumes that a kid living healthily couldnât possibly be fat so that must be what youâre doing, it hurts. You feel like something is wrong with you. You internalize what youâre being told and it turns to feeling shameful, guilty, not good enough, messed up. I wish parents and doctors could wrap their brains around the fact that fat children can be healthy
I am 5'9", and for a solid portion of the last decade I was also 125lbs. Itâs only in the last couple years that Iâve managed to put on a reasonable amount of weight. Iâm between 180 and 190lbs right now, and very happy about it
When I was 125, not a single doctor was ever worried. I was constantly cold, stressed, and exhausted. I was literally always eating, and still could not gain anything. I was hungry all the time, but at the same time I would have given anything to just go to bed and sleep for days, because being chronically underweight does screwy things to your entire system
Now, a couple years into being an actual reasonable weight for my height, Iâve had a doctor, on our first visit, include âhealthy eating and weight lossâ tips in my visit notes without even asking if I was happy at my weight. I am still mad about this. But also, I have so much more energy, I sleep better, I can actually regulate my own damn temperature, and I just over-all feel better
Eat the food, guys. The alternative isnât worth it
Also, women who were pregnant in the 50âČs and 60âČs were ruthlessly exhorted to minimize weight gain during pregnancy, with doctors often demanding they gain only 15 pounds. In fact, if they were overweight before getting pregnant, their doctors might urge them to actually lose weight in early pregnancy. This led to a whole generation of babies who were undernourished during development, which studies have shown can lead to overweight in adults for two or three generations.

MONSTER CUDDLES!!!!
The Addams Family renting out rooms in their huge mansion cheaply to broke college students.
The students digging it because the craziness and the bugs are pretty much the same as any other dorm house. Also, Morticia and Gomez treat them all like visiting cousins, not like tenants to abuse and exploit.Â
One of the tenants is a creative writing major and Gomez and Morticia house them up in the tower because of the quiet and the inspiring view
Theyâre supposed to be working on a typical coming-of-age story but after living with the Addams for just a week the project is becoming a horror-Gothic-romance
They go to their room after classes one day and find Thing correcting the grammar errors in the manuscript with a red penÂ
and yeah, the students pay roughly market value for their rooms, but that doesnât stop gomez from shouting âcapital idea!â and handing them wads of cash when they tell him about their weekend plans or what theyâre researching, so they basically end up living there for free
In the same vein, half the them have to turn into exceptional fencers, because Gomez just doesnât give a shit, and if he sees you in the library, its fucking Sword Fighting Time.Â
Fester and Pugsley find out one of the college students is trying to get into chemistry and woo boy, there has never been a faster study of how to counter various acidic chemical reactions due to âwaterâ balloons in campus history.Â
Morticia and Grammy are keeping the horticulturalists on their toes with their Black Tulip/Rose hybrids, which can flick their barbs a foot away from their stem system. But itâs fine, one of the kids has managed to breed Aloe with the anti venom.Â
Lurch makes sandwiches for everyone whoâs too much of a coward for Grammyâs cooking. Any music major will find him looming over them, utterly stone faced as they practise until they finish, when heâll smile, and slowly applaud.Â
And the spookiest thing of all
Wednesday and Thing will find your thesis. They will critique it in every way imaginable.Â
There is no escape.Â
I especially love the idea of Gomez spotting a student in the library, throwing a sword at a startled student, shouting, âEn garde!â and lunging at him/her with a sword of his own.
Student (later in life), when asked how she jumps from quietly doing research to handling a sudden influx of ER cases so quickly and easily, says, âWhen you have to snap out of deep concentration on biochem to fight for your life then get back to biochem without losing your train of thoughtâŠyou learn or you die.â
This has made me laugh so hard-
