Women are often overlooked, taken for granted. They can slip easily through a man’s defences.

Let us be clear about something. Medical equipment that cannot accommodate fat bodies does not have to be that way. Fat bodies are not some divine mystery that human science cannot fathom. If the health care establishment cared to accommodate fat bodies, then fat bodies would be accommodated. It really is that simple. An medical industrial complex that denies access to fat bodies is not a natural phenomenon. It is a choice. And we should damn well respond to as such. A lot of oppression and marginalization tries to pass itself off as just how things are. Just something we have to accept. Bullshit. These things are choices. They are decisions. They are priorities revealed.

Case in point? Once it was “understood” that fat people cannot be anesthetized. Hell, a lot of doctors still think that today and I gather a lot of anesthesiologists are still allowed to not know how to treat fat patients. But when the health care establishment thought up the various organ mutilation and amputations marketed as weight loss surgery, you will not be surprised they figured out how to put a fat person under very quickly. Because it was never impossible. Just something they didn’t care to learn. Same as why they direct most research to be performed on white male patients. Because they don’t care to learn how things might effect women or people of color differently. They made the choice. Don’t let them pretend they didn’t.

Today I met a woman, whose age she did not mention because she is a lady, was buying a lot of Star Wars merch because we had it on sale. And she was telling me that she couldn’t wait to see the new one and how she was going to stay up and see the midnight release and take pictures of people in costumes. She was so excited, and then she leans in close:

“You know, all these young men at these conventions- they see me and they ask me trivia about this that and the other thing and I tell them- ‘Son, I went to see the first one in 1977 before you were even a twinkle in your daddy’s eye.’ If I don’t know the answer, its because I damn forgot.”

On comparing Trump to Hitler (according to a Holocaust survivor):

I’ve been seeing a lot of conflict going around about the comparisons that are being made between Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler. Some people think the similarities are worth addressing, some people feel that comparing anyone to Hitler, even someone as unsavory as Trump, is in poor taste.

A few weeks ago, I had lunch with my grandfather. My grandpa is 87 years old (he’ll be 88 in November), and a Holocaust survivor. He lived through Nazi soldiers taking him and his family away, he lived through concentration camps, he lived through all the horrors that come to mind when you think of the Holocaust and far, far more. He is the last person to take casual comparisons to Hitler lightly.

My grandpa and I talked about Donald Trump over lunch that day, and he said something that genuinely scares me: he said that he does see the similarities between Trump and Hitler. He remembers Hitler’s rise to power firsthand, and he told me that its beginnings bear a striking resemblance to what’s going on with Trump right now.

People didn’t take him seriously enough. Yes, he had a lot of visibility, and there was certainly both public support for and considerable opposition against him, but no one really recognized just how dangerous he was. A lot of people took one look at his crazy ideas and blatant racism and assumed that there was no way he could actually get elected.

And then he did.

And no one could ever have predicted the horrors that would follow.

Am I saying that Donald Trump is equivalent to Hitler? No. Trump is a disgusting human being, but he has not committed mass genocide. But he needs to be taken seriously. Do not let it happen again. We cannot let someone like Trump into office.

Please, if you are able to vote, do so. Tell your friends and family to vote. Donald Trump potentially being in a position of power is a serious concern. Take this seriously. We all need to vote.

I’ve been saying this repeatedly but as someone who has only read about Hitler, it only means so much

Comparing Trump to Hitler might not be exactly fair (yet) but comparisons of Trump’s campaign to Hitler’s rise to power are NOT EXAGGERATIONS and are in fact so scarily similar to that apparently even Holocaust survivors who witnessed it firsthand are pointing out the similarities

it makes me so disgusted how people in america are so quick to make fun of someones foreign accent without realizing that multilingualism is an unremarkable necessity of everyday life for the majority of the world’s population and that being monolingual and ignorant is a lot more embarrassing than any accent ever will be
