My homestay mother: “Wow, you have such a small face! It’s good your boyfriend lives in Australia because he can only see your face on skype and he can’t see how fat you are now!”
Hilariously, all the straightforward fatshaming I got in Japan made me impervious to it. I was also accused by my homestay...cousin? of…

Maybe all the people they had to promise things to to get where they are? OH WAIT I forgot that the American electoral system is the perfect/only incarnation of a democracy, with no election funding issues, ridiculous gerrymandering, bizarre electoral college nonsense and shady as fuck voting practices.
