“I have lived my life in a culture that hates fat people. From magazine covers to late-night talk show hosts. From would-be employers to would-be lovers. I have felt the judgmental scorn of society’s contempt for people like me. It is against all odds that I’ve managed to arrive in my mid-thirties with any self-respect and self-worth. It’s a miracle that I laugh every day and walk through my life with pride and confidence, because our culture is unrelenting when it comes to fat people. I don’t understand it and I doubt I ever will. We hurt nobody. We’re just fat.”

“
People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you.
You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.
Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.

Is one granted any leniency with regard to ableist language when someone diagnosed with a chemical imbalance is actively hunting another down? I.E. "Crazy" Joe Davola.
Um, I’d say no, but I’m not aware of the situation… Give me some more information if you still care

Do you know how to live happily while remaining emotionally isolated? I feel it could come in handy.
I manage it by smoking a lot of cannabis.

Ellie Krieger, who the fuck are you kidding?

“Love is the only way to achieve happiness”
Ugh.
“I was at the movies yesterday and before the movie started they had this long ad where they were trying to say like — you know those ads where it’s like, “Don’t download things illegally, et cetera,” —- and the way they did it was they were like, “You wouldn’t steal a purse, would you? You wouldn’t think of stealing a car.” And I was thinking about it, I was watching it and I was like, “You know what? I would steal a car if it was as easy as touching the car and then thirty seconds later I owned the car. And, like, I would steal a car if by stealing the car, the person who owned the car, they got to keep the car. And um, I would also steal a car if no one I had ever met had ever bought a car before in their whole lives.”

How many genders are there? And what is cis?
As many as you can imagine.
Cis= not trans.
So what is the difference between pan and bi?
Pan is attraction to all genders, bi is any two genders.
