This article from National Geographic about hunger in America also touches on systemic reasons for poor nutrition and obesity among food insecure populations. It’s infuriating.

I read this too! I share it with my kids so they can appreciate their own bodies and not judge the bodies of others. Every body has fat. Nobody IS fat.

Fat people: INTERVIEW YOUR DOCTORS AND ASK ABOUT BIAS before you allow them to treat you. This advice saved my life and I pass it along anytime I get a chance. My first pregnancy ended in lengthy hospitalizations for me and my 33 wk premie due to my dr chalking all my symptoms up to my fatty-fatness. Going forward, I…

Yeah I’m not loving this photo, mostly because it seems like it was likely taken without that woman’s knowledge and consent as a “lol look at this fat person at the beach” thing.

The thing that was chilling to me was the relationship between insurance companies and doctor behavior related to size. Sure, being really overweight is associated with health risks, but to allow or force doctors to harass people about their weight is worrying - it makes me wonder if we are headed to a future where…

I’ve been not fat, I’ve been fat, I’ve been all over the ED spectrum. I’ve never been treated with the amount of incredulity, dismissal and disrespect as I was when I was fat.

They didn’t print that part of the interview, so I think they were expecting something else, although I agree - what else do you expect from someone who’s running their own company?  

My friend was doing an interview to promote her company, and they asked how she carves out an extra 30 minutes in her day.  She felt like her answers (I do my makeup on the subway, I get haircuts that need 0 maintenance for at least a year, etc) weren’t super on-brand.  

So does Dinner/Family time overlap with Frisbee time?

‘Prayer Time’ is code for ‘jerking it’.

I’ve got one too.

Dude spends more time working out, showering, and chilling in his cryo chamber than he does with his kids. 

Hunter S Thompson did this better:

I appreciate that the Slack joke takes 45 min, comedy is difficult.
