Funny how with most situations if you just add meth, shit goes sideways. 

Holy shit...

I have issues with calling Stacy Abrams a superhero.

From a Middle Eastern friend:

“Due to covid travel restrictions the US had to set up a coup locally this year”

Isn’t it the opposite? Don’t most people like cilantro except for the small number who have that weird gene that makes it taste like soap?

That’s how I feel. She has a massive platform and when she puts this out there, people are going to notice. A highly restrictive 10 day fast/detox/whatever you call it comes with risks no matter how you slice it, and pointing that out does not equate to attacking Lizzo. I can also see how plus sized women could feel…

Where I am: Lizzo can do whatever Lizzo likes, but doing so doesn’t negate the fact that detoxes can be harmful and she now has a Name/Message that goes beyond her. Wish it didn’t, for her sake specifically because that sounds horrible.

But for real, those liquid diets are a con. 

I mean, can multiple things be true at once?

Yeah, that’s really what got me. I love watching her work-out videos and vegan food posts, basically about loving your body and being good to it and “fat people can enjoy moving their body too”
 

Maybe she shouldn’t be hawking bullshit? Pretty easy to see why people are calling her out.

Yup. Whether she wants to go on a healthy diet (for weight loss, for health, or just to see what it’s like) is her business. But if she shills detox crap, she deserves a callout just like anyone else. This is just like CupcakKe and that monthlong water fast.

When was the last time you saw this level of judgment directed towards any of the countless celebrities and influencers who advertise flat tummy tea?

taggjng the cleanse maker or whatever is also pretty advertise-y. it’s not like she was just casually talking about taking a break from spicy foods; this was basically a promotion of the cleanse and is pretty in line with a lot of diet culture nonsense that seems opposite of what she supports. so, of course it drew…

I mean, anyone who spreads bullshit “detoxifying” pseduo science should be challenged, but only because it’ s bullshit pseudoscience and it primes people to believe other bullshit if it’s not challenged. Same with alkaline water. No evidence that any of it does anything. No one can name the supposed “toxins” this shit…

Wow, R.L., that’s amazing, considering the competition!

*Raises hand* I am not a heavy sleeper. Sleeping alone means less interruption from intrusive elbows, snoring or spouse’s occasional restlessness. Sometimes I sleep on the couch and it is by far the best sleep I get. I notice that spouse spreads out like a starfish when we’re not co-sleeping so I presume that he is…

I am about four classes away from it.” She declined to name the school, saying, “I don’t want them to get harassed.”

For sure...Senator Blobfish offering to assist with the arguments at SCOTUS is the embarrasment icing on the AG Grifter McGrifterson filing this bullshit cupcake. Good thing I can go drown my shame in Whataburger.

I don’t understand how Texas can sue over how other states conduct their elections. Is the answer, “They can’t, but this is just a publicity stunt anyhow”?
