I don’t have a problem with people buying into a fashion fantasy (dream about that $3000 dress all you want!), I’ve got a problem with an industry that feeds the message that women’s bodies aren’t good enough unless they’re a certain size. And if that isn’t the message, why don’t we see average sizes in the fashion…

It’s not just high fashion though. I mentioned to someone else to grab an H&M catalog and try to find at size 4 or bigger body in the straight size section. It’s all 0s and 2s, until you get to the “plus size” where it’s just 16s and that’s it. High fashion is aspirational but it’s not just the fashion, it’s the…

But how do we do that if not by including average bodies in fashion? It’s frustrating to see the damage done to society and just have to say, “Well, people are irrational, there’s no fixing it.”

I think food and fashion are different enough that they can’t really be compared. If I spent $200 on a dress and found out it only looks good on a size 0, I’m gonna be very dissatisfied. It no longer serves its intended purpose and could only serve its purpose for a very tiny portion of society. If my $3 burger is…

Well, no one is starving themselves to be 5’11”, true.

Which, like I mentioned, is fine. If high fashion stayed in its “Art” corner I wouldn’t have a problem with it. But it hasn’t and it has influence fashion at every level. Grab an H&M catalogue and tell me how many size 4 or bigger bodies you see in the straight size section. Pick up an old Delia’s catalogue and tell…

The old guard fashion industry sits nice and comfy in a system that they created (along with dieting/cosmetics/fitness industries) and they’re not going to change it because they make a bunch of money. I get that. I’m just pointing out the damage they’ve done to society in their quest for those bunches of money. And…

I’m pretty confident that most high fashion designers couldn’t design a beautiful piece for a size 18 body. And those who could do it wouldn’t because it would “cheapen” their brand.

This is about the entire fashion industry, not just haute couture. Size 0-2 is the standard across the whole industry (unless it’s a celebrity spokesperson, then they will go up to maybe a size 4-6, depending on fame level). I know fashion is all about elitism, super thin rich beautiful (mainly white) people urging…

True. Lots of people do fancy themselves elite, even if they created and support the system that defines them as elite.

But if the only way your clothes look exceptional is if they’re on an exceptionally thin frame, then you’re really not a very good designer. Ohh, that dress looks amazing on a size 00 and no one else! We’re going to make millions!

Potato chips and popsicles are my go-t0 “I’m not cooking. I’m not even microwaving.” dinner.

Word. I’m 35 and I weigh more than I did at 25, even though my eating and exercising hasn’t changed much if at all.

I think we need to put some beat cops back on foot. Having cops on foot meant they had to get to know their neighborhoods because they were physically occupying the same space as the citizens, now they’re all always in a car. The face to face interactions they have with people are not everyday chatting or greetings or…

Isn’t the true end goal to sell clothes? If you’re putting on a runway show with art pieces never meant to be worn by anyone but the people modeling them, sure ok, use all size zeros if you want. But if you want to showcase your clothing designs with the intent of getting non-model people to buy them, wouldn’t it…

Dude, yes. I’m 35 and would like to have a baby in the next couple years, which means I’m automatically high risk. No fucking way am I birthing my kid at my house. Will I look for a hospital that won’t push a c section if I don’t actually need a c section? Absolutely. Would I probably try for a home birth if I were…

From what I understand it will get you less high and take longer (digesting it vs absorbing it through the mucus membranes) plus it will numb your mouth and throat.

I got into it once with her and I said, “So his penis can go in your face, but if it gets near your vagina Jesus starts to cry?” She was mad at me for a while and we don’t talk about it anymore.

Come on, Trump, you know you want to...
