My breakfast this fine gloomy afternoon is a salad, some yogurt, and a croissant.

My younger self would be proud of me for eating "healthy" and trying to "lose weight." You know what? Fuck her!

I, in this moment, am proud of myself for eating the things my body tells me it wants - with no ulterior motives or desire to change the way my body looks, and no moral judgement on food!

I'll take the latter kind of proud, please, any day.

Omg you guys

@greymoralities told me about the I Write Like coding bot. I gave it some of my Tyler Durden text and it said Chuck... I was like "this is because I literally wrote the words Durden and Club in this one..." so I removed those ("the new group" and "Tyler" and then "Maria"...) and got him... Going to try and find an even more vague story without all the names and see what the robot does.

Took a long walk to get bagels – I’m going to start weighing myself on Sundays, and I’m pleasantly surprised that my being up and active more consistently has shown great weight loss results so far 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Der IWL SR59 Berlin ist ein Motorroller, der von 1959 bis 1963 im VEB Industriewerk Ludwigsfelde gebaut wurde. Im internationalen Vergleich der 150er Motorroller nahm der Roller Berlin bei seinem Erscheinen eine führende Position ein. Er war mit insgesamt fast 114.000 Exemplaren der meistgebaute große Motorroller der DDR. Das Nachfolgemodell ab 1963 heißt Troll. . Äußerlich ist der Roller Berlin seinem Vorläufer Wiesel sehr ähnlich. Ein Unterschied ist die Verwendung von Einzelsitzen anstatt einer Sitzbank. Ferner unterscheidet sich die Hinterhaube in Details. Auffällig ist noch der Schriftzug "Berlin" mit dem Berliner Wappen darunter. Deutlicher sind die technischen Unterschiede. Der gebläsegekühlte Motor wurde auf 150 cm³ aufgebohrt. Die Leistungssteigerung auf 5,5 kW (7,5 PS) wurde außerdem auch durch eine von 7,5 auf 8,1 erhöhte Verdichtung, größeren Ansaugquerschnitt und eine neue Auspuffanlage erzielt. Trotz gestiegener Leermasse konnte das Leistungsgewicht auf 24,5 kg/kW verringert werden. Zusammengenommen mit dem Vier-Gang-Getriebe ergaben sich im Vergleich zum Wiesel deutlich bessere Fahrleistungen. Ferner gab es einige Detailverbesserungen: Der Luftfilter saugt die Luft nun aus dem Freien an, und nicht mehr die staubige Luft unter der Haube. Der Vergaser wurde zur besseren Ansauggeräuschdämpfung geändert. Die patentierte Trapezschwinge des Wiesels, bei der die Kettenspannung beim Durchfedern stets gleich bleibt, wurde um einen Stabilisator ergänzt. Federung und Fahreigenschaften konnten durch hydraulische Stoßdämpfer und verlängerten Federweg vorn verbessert werden. Zur verbesserten Ausstattung zählten Lenkblock- und Sitzbankschloss, Seitenständer, Klapphaken zum Aufhängen von Einkaufsnetzen etc. Als Zubehör waren unter anderem Windschutzscheibe, sowie der Einspuranhänger Campi erhältlich.

WTAF

 This is some sociopathic bullshit. 

The promotion that said that Will Ospreay had forced them not to book wrestler Pollyanna (who had accused a friend of Ospreay’s of rape) is now saying that the story was made up. Basically, another promoter told IWL that Ospreay wanted her banned from a show and IWL did nothing to investigate his claim. They took it at face value. Let me repeat: they took at face value a claim that someone demanded a wrestler be removed from a show without ever trying to contact the person named, or even asking the person who conveyed the request to provide some kind of proof that what he said was the truth.

Pollyanna has said that the reason she believed she was shunned was because of IWL saying that she had been. A woman who had already been traumatized by rape is now being told that the owner of ResGal and IWL exploited her fear that she would be forced out of the wrestling community as retribution. It’s beyond grotesque. 

I’ve done support work for sexual assault victims and sex workers for years and that means I’ve seen the effects of punishing victims for telling the truth. Normally, this sort of thing is done by people close to the perpetrator, which is harmful enough. But this is a group who came forward pretending to be on her side. This is a group she knew in a professional context and relied on to be objective. How is this woman supposed to trust anything any promotion tells her ever? Who does this kind of thing?

Worse yet, a lot of people are going to assume that the lie reflects on the validity of Pollyanna’s rape accusation. The two are completely separate things but I guarantee you that people in the larger wrestling community will conflate them. And the people who told this lie did so totally aware that this would be the case. 

My heart breaks for Pollyanna, who has already been through more than any woman should in the pursuit of her wrestling dream. 

Boycott these fuckers. Protest their shows. Whenever there’s any mention of them online, carpet bomb the posts with reminders that they did this. Ospreay has a legit claim that he was libelled and I truly hope that he pursues a legal claim against all the people involved but Pollyanna can do nothing. Seriously, I want to vomit.
