If youre fat all of the like fashion subcultures out there arent really accessible to you.

Fashion is made for skinny people and oversized clothing is made for skinny people and tall boots are made for skinny people.

Of youre a fat person and you want to wear any of these things you either arent going to be able to find it or it wont fit you quite right because designers dont actually care about designing things for fat bodies.

The only thing out there thats actually made for fat people is tummy control jeans. And those things are fucking awful.

If youre a fat person interested in fashion youre meant to squeeze yourself into the smallest thing that can possibly fit you so that you might look just a little bit smaller so people can be like oh you look like you lost weight to your face and then behind your back mock you for the inch of back between your shirt and pants and how you obviously dont dress your size.

And if you wear anything baggy or loose people will be like oh what a gross monster. You obviously dgaf about your "health."

Like there is literally no way to win.

And of course theres the sexualization that goes into fat bodies. Like show a little bit of titty with a fat body and people will throw a fit like your whole nipple is sticking out or wear a short skirt with a fat body and people will act like you flashed grandma.

Fat bodies are policed so much harder than skinny bodies and its just super upsetting to know that no matter how cute I look and no matter how many pieces of clothing I save I will never really be allowed to capture the look I want because people will never see me as some cool fashionable person but rather a gross nasty lazy slob.

vegans who refuse to even eat backyard eggs….why

despazito

people who think its unethical to eat chicken eggs are like people who think bees should keep all their honey. they literally produce more than they need and your unwillingness to even buy local means you are doing nothing to help them, support your small farmers you heathens

feminist-james

This is not true.

1) honeybees do not produce “extra honey.” And beekeepers don’t take some of the honey, they take all of it.

2) chickens have been artificially selected from naturally producing eggs once a month to producing eggs every couple of days. Their bodies are not sustainable and the health complications of this rapid egg production kills chickens.

Hey idk who like. Lied to you about the way honey farms work, but could you stop spreading misinformation? Are you a beekeeper?

Because I am!

Beekeepers make sure hives are fed before there is pollen in the air, protected from predators and the elements, and have enough honey to sustain themselves. We don’t take all of it.

But overproduction of honey leads to stagnation in the hive. It puts stress on the queen to lay eggs, and when they inevitably fill up all their space with honey (instead of filling up the multiple empty, clean boxes of frames beekeepers might put on top of the main hive box), the queen can get so stressed she dies. If there’s a spike in the weather and the hive hasn’t prepared new queen brood, that’s it! The colony is dead. Because there wasn’t enough space for eggs and honey in the hive.

Beekeepers take excess honey. We are constantly monitoring the state of the hive, checking for parasites, analyzing the eggs for diseases, and making sure they are fed and healthy (usually with sugar water and pollen substitutes until they have made enough honey to sustain themselves in the early spring months). If a queen dies prematurely, we make every attempt to replace her to save the colony.

I know there’s an urge to patronize everyone who works in the farming industry, but try to understand the differences between small scale agriculture and industrial farming. There IS a difference. And stop spreading misinformation.

If you’re this passionate about ethical consumption, look into some of the ecofeminist research on non-hierarchal interspecies relationships (working on building animal-human relationships in a non exploitative way).

But yeah! Stop spreading misinformation! Please 🐝

Also if I can harp on the chicken part?

Yea Chickens are some of the most abused animals on big factory farms and I’ll be the first to admit it’s criminal and more needs to be done to regulate this.

Yes selective breeding over time has caused an increase in the ammount of eggs produced by chickens and factory farms have some messed up practices to get more eggs from them including forced moutling.

THIS IS WHY YOU SUPPORT LOCAL FARMERS AND THEIR EGGS

Many people take to raising their own hens because of America’s immoral treatment of hens in factory farms like you’re not helping the poor chicks by starving these farmers financially you’re just hurting the one people trying to change things and making the OPTION of cage free organic cruelty free eggs even harder to find

harvestspriteirl

Yeah, as someone who like… lives on a chicken and duck farm… Coops help keep wild animals out but birds are kinda dumb. And chickens literally do not need to keep the unfertilized eggs!

Most chickens will sit on unfertilized eggs until they can tell if they are or not… By the smell of rotting egg. Yeah, ew. Farmers can hold that bitch to the flashlight and tell if there’s a baby in there! They know! The eggs are not being abused!

kuzuryuu-course

Also, if you separate your cocks and your hens, there wont even be that issue in the first place. Egg-laying is basically chicken menstruation, but unlike mammalian menstruation which is full of blood and dead tissue, chicken menstruation is full of tasty tasty nutrients

cluckbuck7

Support local farms! Most grocery stores carry eggs from small, local farms that give hens acres of open pasture and healthier housing.

jheselbraum

Also, that “selectively bred to lay eggs more often” thing? Literally just comes from feeding the chickens every day. The chicken’s ancestors would only lay an egg when there was abundant food, so people started feeding them every day to get more eggs. That’s it.

siri how do i express nervousness about a vaccine being developed at light speed by a private company on a tight deadline funded by the trump administration without in any way sounding like an anti-vaxxer

jauntylittlefrillyboy

sawbones just did an episode on this very topic, and it soothed a lot of my own fears

https://maximumfun.org/episodes/sawbones/operation-warp-speed/

if you don’t have time to listen, the watered down gist is a lot of the companies are 1 partially funded by an organization that gave them money in return for rights to distribute the vaccine (for free iirc, feel free to correct me) when it was finished, 2 there are a bunch of new methods for vaccine development being used in this case that are both safer and faster than normal.

Sydnee expresses her own concerns about the vaccine and everything that’s happening, but if a real life doctor says there’s hope I will believe her.

fatherofthebride

i’m ten minutes into the podcast and if i weren’t on mobile i would edit that one meme so it says “why don’t you [listen to sydnee mcelroy talk about how your fears are understandable because the trump administration and capitalism have both undermined the public’s trust in the new vaccine but really it’s going to be safe and effective despite all those things] and maybe then you’ll calm down”
