From the "Bad Advice” column on The Establishment:
[theestablishment.co]
Fat people are always an unsightly bother to those who have the upstanding moral judgment and good sense to be thin, but a fat person who is not sufficiently ashamed of their size is a problem of another order. Your problem — and all fat people are everyone else’s problem — is twofold: First, this fat lady has failed to apologize profusely and constantly to you personally and the world at large for the size of her body, which you have no choice but to look at, contemplate, and analyze during every waking moment.
Second, this fat lady has already resisted her loved ones’ generous offers of assistance in developing shame around her body. So you’re fighting an uphill battle to begin with — luckily, you’re not fat, which means you can succeed at anything because you do not occupy more than an arbitrarily and culturally designated acceptable quantity of mass on earth, and are therefore a capable and good person.
How did you pick today (of all days) to talk of diets and being overweight? Ugh. My life is a diet roller coaster.
Reminds me of someone I used to know.
@altschmerz LOL I didn't kill him.
If you want the "story", I can send a pm.
