I care about “people” in theory but there are so few people I actually care for.
And if people are the worst - why do I miss their company so much?
I was reduced to tears by a hug tonight. I feel like a fool.
Now I’m feeling pissy.
But the upside is that I’m not afraid of coming of as pissy (or demanding, or irrational or any number of other undesirable feminine qualities.)

INNER FAT GIRL: Racism ends when we stop falsely believing in the term “races”. There is no such thing.

please explain how this would change the institution of racism, because i am not seeing how the mass realization of race being a social construct would result in the destruction of institutional-disempowerment

Hey,
I know this isn’t my usual style but I’m trying something new: dealing with things in a healthy and constructive manner. So instead of passively-aggressively stewing, I’m letting you know that I’m upset. I’m not angry at you or anything but I am pretty disappointed. My film getting chosen for the showcase was actually a huge deal and I thought that if it was...

– Marianne Kirby at The Rotund, I Spy With My Fat Eye; On Seeing And Being Seen
Sometimes I think…Marianne is somehow seeing into my brain and posting it on the internet. I mean that in a good way. I’m just so…this is me, too.

So last weekend at the Anarchist Bookfair I think it was Andrea who said something like ‘the more I get to know other people the more I like my friends.’
That is exactly how I feel.
I’m trying to be less judgmental but I’ve also learned so many times over that I should trust my instincts. Let’s just say I don’t have the best feeling about tomorrow night. I...
kiriamaya:
““Real women have curves” was a marketing slogan thought up to sell people overpriced, ill-fitting pants. It does NOT promote body positivity – it only perpetuates body policing by turning the tables on people who don’t fit into yet another arbitrary ideal. The job is to BUST THE FUCKING PARADIGM APART, not shift it a little bit toward the fat side. The job is to remind people, bodies...

What a wild past few days.
The weekend was heaven. I got a sunburn sitting on the grass with people I admire and adore. Plus I got so GLAM on Saturday night I puked behind a dumpster Sunday afternoon. Plus I have so much to read and a lead on friends in Halifax. But mostly it was a glorious haze of friends and sun.
Then to TIFF. What a vast and fast change of pace! I have never been so excited...

so I have quite a few ‘followers’ from my fitblr days but I don’t know if anyone reads or follows my blog anymore… hello? are you out there? tell me a bit about you! and why do you read my posts?
Okay, I’m rebooting this thing (being my tumblr) right before I head off but I really feel the lack of this website in my life has started to become seriously detrimental to me. Specifically, I need to see all the FA posts on my dash all the time.
Plus I probably need an outlet for all my angsty, diary-worthy emotionz.
So here I am. Again. I left because, well, it got stressful. I used to...
