Here is a small list of the things that need to happen for designers at the beginning of their career who want to have a serious future in capital-F Fashion to consider offering plus size options or, God forbid, catering to the plus-size client:

I don't think you understand what the word sad means.

I know it's wrong, I know all the reasons it wouldn't work, but every time I read a story like this my immediate visceral reaction is always, "Yes! Of course you can have a town! You can have a state! Every one of you should go there and stop ruining America for the rest of us!

I felt strongly that there must be a GIF of this moment, and the internet did not disappoint. Since people have reminded me of the Robot Ted episode, which I had previously wiped from my memory, I must issue a hashtag retraction. Oh, and you're welcome.

That's totally true, and it's why I'm fond of saying we have a nutrition and inactivity crisis. Obesity is a common, but not certain, symptom.

There's no need to make such fine-grained distinctions between who you hate and don't hate, who you respect and disrespect. Your empathy is not a finite resource.

Wow, I had no idea Wentworth Miller was gay. I thought he was into fish people. #worstbuffyepisodeever

I'm not entirely sure why I'm bothering, but here we go.

I know, I've read many of those pieces in the past. It's just something I hear used frequently by people, as though a doctor would never ever say anything biased.

One thing, before we get going; it's really time to get rid of the thoughtless bodysnarking caveat "unless you're a doctor." It feeds into the pernicious, dangerous delusion that a medical degree somehow immunizes one against fat prejudice, and study after study has shown that doctors shame, misdiagnose, provide…

In every wedding I've ever heard of that does this (mine will not, but that's beside the point) the no camera policy was strictly for the ceremony, not the reception. And if you're present at someone's marriage ceremony, they have the right to dictate the terms of your behavior. It's not a party, it's a privilege.…

Another fun fact: the college admissions essay was specifically invented to keep Jews out of Harvard University. America!

stay out of midtown manhattan, i suppose

I recently realized that none of my black friends are coming to my wedding. I'm going to have *those* wedding pictures. #brideproblems

I'm fairly certain there was an entire episode of Malcolm in the Middle that revolved around his character's background in roller skating.

Yes! My dream of a Heathers musical can continue unsullied!

I remember watching Indie Game and realizing that his behavior mirrored mine in my days I was trying to make it as a creative writer disturbingly closely. At the time I had severe undiagnosed GAD and was in the process of alienating all of my loved ones and destroying my entire professional network.

The infuriating thing is that some of the stuff in her store is hella cute. I have the same issue with shabby apple.
