Thank god. Hey fatties! You’ve been deemed fuckable by this lady and therefore a person of worth! Congratulations!

Right?

Body dysmorphia sucks, but insisting to other people that you’re fat when you’re not actively harms people who are actually fat. This is Rachel Dolezal-level shit, and it needs to stop.

To be fair, I think we’re all forgetting about the Huckabee Corollary, which states that gay people are gross and icky and have special gay cooties, allowing for one to discriminate against them. You know, science.

I will not pay my parking ticket then because it’s not right. I don’t believe in parking meters.

Also, you have to recognize what you are dealing with to medicate it properly. So, plague at this time and in this place would have been an huge

Great reporting. Thanks Raph.

tl;dr, but plague is more common than most people might imagine. When I lived in Colorado, they’d routinely find plague-infected squirrels in our neighborhood and post warning signs. Nowadays it’s pretty easily treatable; not sure about 1943.

Well done, Raph. Well done.

The plague continues to affect Americans, especially in the Southwest.

Amazing story, Raph.
