Flirt McGirt V 2.0, everyone loves a reboot. My space for Ted Lasso, MMFD, Killing Eve, Scream series, 90s nostalgia. Mostly I just ramble about whatever, honestly.

My social media just threw this into my feed, and when I tell you this explains SO much going on in my young subconscious watching this movie. She really was always my favorite of the nuns.

get yourself a gay bestie who'll hold your boobs up when the bra you're wearing offers no adequate support

I’m only back to say I was wrong about MMFD Season 3. It is not the worst finale of all time-Euphoria just swooped in to take that garbage crown. Holy shit. I wish zendaya all the best on her break, because girl you earned it, carrying this load of doo doo. The lesbian in me is highly conflicted by Sydney Sweeney’s whole 50 foot woman, gigantic titties thing, but overall 1/10 waste of time

when you grew up as a lonely uncool girl it will never stop haunting you by the way. you will meet a cool person at a bar or the train station or at a friend's party and you can wear your most stylish outfit and striking eye makeup and you will swear that they can see through all of the facade and see the lonely terribly insecure teenage girl you used to be who desperately wanted to connect and you will swear that they know that there is like an insurmountable gap between you. this will happen forever

james baldwin was so right when he said you think you’re alone and then you pick up a book and realise someone else has felt the same way as you and managed to find a language for it. the realest shit

does anyone else remember being a hapless american child looking at the prices of books on the inside flap and wondering. do we just hate canadians? this book is $8 here and $13 there, that feels..... mean somehow

I don’t know that I’m about to make the most coherent post, but I wanted to try anyway. Most people that follow me know I showed up here because of the tv show My Mad Fat Diary. If you don’t know what it is, stop reading this and go search the mmfd tag. Anyway, it’s a mostly beautiful and insightful blend of observations on body image, mental health, the teenage state we never really entirely leave, obesity in our society and in romance, etc. etc.

And MMFD led me to other body-positive work, like Rainbow Rowell, whose heroines I love. And I saw her byline today on this piece in The Cut “I Thought I’d be on a GLP-1 By Now,” and thought “ohhh boy.” Not because I wanted to criticize, I absolutely do not. Because it was relatable, and the world of MMFD has never felt further away from real life than it does right now in the easily accessible world of surgeries and shots we live in, and the absolutely bizzaro world of dating young people seem to be dealing with.

What does it mean to resist the path everyone is going down? Rainbow talks about it wonderfully, but have no idea, because I’m a total hypocrite. I haven’t been on Tumblr because my mom died, and I’m just now coming out of a grief spiral.

My mom died of kidney failure, because of diabetes, because of obesity and a food addiction. 15 years earlier, I sat watching my grandma die for the same reasons. My health data was telling me the same was coming for me eventually. So here I am, with 5 little bypass scars and 80 pounds gone. My life is unequivocally better: I feel better, I can be a better friend, dog owner, people are MUCH kinder, which is fucked up.

But I do feel somewhat like I betrayed some fundamental principle in what I believed and the spirit of the media and messages I believed in. It’s a weird spot to be in, and I worry about our society if we wipe obesity away. I’ve lost any enjoyment in food, it is a bit of a desire free life right now, which is covered a bit in her essay. How much of this is grief and grappling with who I see in the mirror, and just thinking too damn much, I’ll never know. But her piece got me thinking and is worth a read.

I Thought I’d Be on a GLP-1 by Now

What am I afraid to lose?

It's straight from the authoritarian playbook.
