im not INTERESTED anymore in seeing men’s perception of what female leisure time looks like, how we lounge around hairless and small and beautiful on our beds and couches in oversized shirts and lace underwear, unaware and unassuming and all the more beautiful for not Trying to be beautiful, i’m TIRED of it. even our most basic freedom of privacy, time alone with the self, has been butchered and ripped from us by the gaze of male photographers and artists

this one’s for all the fat girls who’ve cried in dressing rooms 💗

kristineirl

when i was about thirteen or so, my mother took me to sears to buy me pants. i went into the youth section and picked out jeans and dickies.

the act of trying to fit my fat, squishy body into something that would not go past my knees was embarrassing. but it’s doubled when i realized i was wearing the biggest size in that section, what was supposed to be my section. the look my mother gave me when i told her that nothing fit is seared into my memory.

so i cried. i cried because this meant i had to shop at the womens section. for some completely asinine reason, in my teens, i decided that if i ever shopped in the fat lady’s section, it meant that i had failed. at what? i still don’t really know. passing by the abundance of ugly, drab, boring clothes that the plus size section provided felt like i was in a funhouse, like this can’t be my reality.

but the pants fit there. i took no pleasure from this, and i cried again.

so that’s why i made this post. because the experiences that fat and chubby kids go through in dressing rooms is unique and so rarely talked about. i’m in a much better place now and have definitely embraced my fat thighs and hanging double belly, but i know a lot of us who grew up to be fat adults still have some pain we have to address and work through.

so again, this is for all the fat kids who have cried in dressing rooms. however your particular story went, i hope you can look back on it and start to heal.

Little under-appreciated sea creature things:

By now I’ve met multiple people in my life who were unaware of any or all of the following and were delighted to learn them, so here is the master collection.

Scallops swim like they do in Spongebob

image

Scallops also have a bunch of googly eyes

image

Other mussels really do have big “tongues,” actually their “feet,” like on a snail or slug, which are basically their cousins

image

Every barnacle is an entire stationary crustacean, like a lobster or crab, and those are their legs

image

A sperm whale has a thin narrow little mouth and its lower jaw is basically a stick

image

Sea urchins walk around

image

Under the sea urchin is this mouth

image

Sand dollars are a type of sea urchin themselves and they just look like that

image

All sea anemones are meat eaters and mostly eat things about their own size

image

A starfish has a little eye on the end of each arm

image

Not only do octopuses have beaks but the bite of almost every octopus species is venomous, just in case shape-shifting, color changing, tentacles, suckers, ink and super intelligence weren’t enough super powers

plz comment with any you would like to add and also whether any were new or shocking to you
