Triss……
I don’t know how to feel about this. At first I liked it because it is a fat person being sexual, but then it hit me that this is a black woman whose body is being made to look animalistic.
Via hey, fat chick!
Blessings
What hurts you, blesses you.Darkness is your candle.
Your boundaries are your quest.
I can explain this, but it would breakthe glass cover on your heart,
and there’s no fixing that.

ARE YOU SERIOUS!? I HAD NO FUCKING IDEA!!! Thank you so much for letting me know. I googled it and through my research I found out I can get a surgical procedure that’ll chop off more than half my stomach and lose a ton of weight so I can be more visually appealing for you!! Since you enlightened me to this epiphany can you help me pay for this procedure?
And while I was googling, I found out that it’s also not healthy to be a spineless, judgmental asshole on the internet! Can you believe that? Google recommends you grow a pair of balls so you don’t have to hide behind an anonymous grey face to talk shit. They also recommend getting a new brain so you don’t judge and assume what someone’s health is like just based on appearances.
In the mean time I’ll definitely work on not being obese. Oh wait, I just remembered, I don’t give a shit. Now excuse me while I go rub my big, fat, soft belly and not give a fuck. :)

Sizeism: The lost –ism
About a month ago in the Cross Cultural Center (CCC) of UCSD, I saw a sign listing the different –isms there are, and one of them listed was sizeism, but I find it “funny” that many of the student activist that frequent this space and other community centers say and perpetuate Sizeist ideology. There has been a lot of work done on campus by student leaders and activist against racism, classism, sexism, and homophobia, but within in many of these groups people do not fight for the rights of fat students, faculty, and staff. Maybe people are fighting it is just that I haven’t seen them that makes me believe that such people do not exist on the UCSD campus. There are many people that are part of the UCSD campus that are fighting the antagonistic campus climate, yet the campus climate of UCSD against fat people is not questioned nor changed. It might be unfair for me to say that the campus climate is not questioned nor changed, but that is the way it feels, but I also do not want to ignore that there is some fighting being done by me and others like me…we just need to find each other to make the fight stronger. I know that I am contradicting myself, but there are times that it feels like no one cares about fat issues and other times I find one or two people who know what I am feeling is true for them too. Anyways with this post I wanted awareness to be brought to the areas that awareness is missing.
About me
I am starting this blog so that I may begin to explore my many identities and how they work together to make me. I am also very interested in making a community for myself, so I hope that by sharing my stories with you all that you all will also share your stories with me. I am currently 25 and an undergrad student, so I might be using some of these things for school.
