So now we know for sure Corina Rodriguez is the worst. We already sort of knew it.

... The fuck?! For the record, I had managed to aquire a serious issue with my thighs when I was 9, and seeing this would have created all kinds of upset in my head, so FUCK YOU app makers!! Also, what the hell is with the sexy bikini pose on the dentist game? Why is she EVEN IN a bikini?!

Yeah, this about sums it up for me. Madonna will be obsolete when people actually stop writing and talking about her. Until then,

The two worlds do totally overlap and if you feel that you need to hide your athleticism in feminist circles, I suspect that the reason is that in the past, you said things in a way that sounds shaming to others. Most "fitspiration" posts are ableist, denying (explicitly or through erasure) that many people suffer…

Why don't you read the sentence after that one about the validation and get back to me.

People in first world countries suddenly developed industrialization which lead to a radical shift in diet and behavior that drove the masses towards preprocessed foods, and more sedentary employment. Add to that the subsidization of corn, wheat, and meat that results in our food supply being flooded with cheap,…

What's a granny style yoga class? Something that isn't bikram or Power Yoga? Even gentle yoga classes provide health benefits and can get people started on a road to more physical activity. What doesn't help is judginess about what activities a person does choose to participate in.

the effect of that is you're asking for a bigger slice from a pie baked specifically for people who never get any pie.

Either you're restricting yourself to a very narrow window of feminist media/opinions or you're looking for reasons to feel excluded. The rest of the world orbits around the wonder of thinness. Feminist spaces try to orbit around the wonder that is being happy in your own skin regardless of what shitheels say; that…

I truly believe that 5 years from now the conversation about obesity is going to be very different than the one we keep having now. There is so much widespread ignorance and bigotry regarding body size, but as the research continues to stack up and the real causes become clearer, people are going to be forced to admit…

It's also difficult *being* a Chinese-American woman in a predominantly white community. Personally, it's not *quite* as bad for me when it comes to direct interactions, because I have a deep voice and, as a mechanical engineer, I dress very casually and don't wear makeup. So I'm not likely to be fetishized. But I'm…

No worries! Sorry to focus in on just one part of your very good points. I'm in the Silicon Valley so I understand the stereotype, and plenty of those kind of men here (ugh, shudders).

With that said, I cannot even imagine what freakish Frankenstein would fit these personality proportions. I picture a man in a business suit with the sleeves ripped off to reveal a tribal tattoo, clutching a Glo Stick to his heaving breast. He is wearing a baseball hat with a sports logo on it over a lamé headband. He…

You get it 100%. It's really heartening. Thank you for writing from your perspective.

So this fermented bean paste will give children tits, ass, and angular chins?

No one should send this guy hate-filled racist comments. No one. He is doing a great thing here and that picture is sweet as pie.

No approval from Bobby Brown? I suppose that's her prerogative. She can do it all on her own. You would think Bobby would just be happy that she's not out humpin' around. And really, even though I get the whole deal with no guy being good enough for a man's daughter, sometimes that's the way love is. My personal…

But assuming both people are of sound mind, they are also allowed to go out right now and write a will that gives Wife #2 half of their estate... so this would be the same.

Yeah, no, you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about.

It's not a single overworked animator at a PC churning these boring-ass characters out. IT TAKES A TEAM. There are writers, concept artists, sculptors, graphic designers, and 3D modelers who all work together to get this shit done.

If Laika can turn out…

3D animator here. It is not any more difficult to keep a female 3D animated character in-model when showing emotions. Nor are they more difficult to animate. None of my fellow animator friends thought they were more difficult either. Bob is full of it. It's difficult to have a character "look pretty" all the time…
