part 353 whalers on the moon

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

My hatred for shit like this has unfathomable depths. To answer: I'll probably feel the same as I do today, which is to realize that life is complex, you don't always get what to want for a variety of reasons, and that feeling uncomfortable IS a valid reason to do do something, no matter what self-righteous people like whoever wrote this says to the contrary. I don't have to deal with assholes who might make fun of me or make rude remarks or even just silently judge me. I don't want to do something knowing that my presence would make people uncomfortable. I don't want to wear things that I don't think look good on me, because -gasp! the ultimate sin- I don't like my fat or body or cellulite and I really don't want to have to look at it myself let alone put it on display for the world. What is sad is that in this day and age there are still people telling me what to do with my body and how I should feel and deal with the challenges I face, like I'm a fucking idiot child who can't figure it out for myself. What is sad is that whoever wrote this honestly thinks they're helping people like me, when in reality they are no different from the people who tell fat people they can't go to the beach, only with heaps more smugness. My god, this one even comes with a ~dire warning~ for all the poor fatties who chose to deal with their lives in the way the author doesn't like. /rant end
