you can preach about slut-shaming all you want, but you can’t deny there’s something very wrong with 13 and 14-year old girls going out in skirts and dresses so short they barely cover their asses and shirts with necklines so low they show off cleave they haven’t got yet, drinking and even smoking and hooking up with guys before they even have a substantial knowledge of how sex and sexual relationships work.
Thank YOU HOLY SHIT

I will always reblog this because it is so so important.

I just want to nail this to every stable surface I can find. I cannot count the amount of times that I’ve seen fat folks being encouraged, cajoled, and even forced into behaviors that would be recognized as disordered eating/exercising patterns in thin folks.
Pretty much everything that’s done on shows like The Biggest Loser would be called out as pro-ana/pro-orthorexia in a thin person. Exercising past the point that it hurts, to the point where you’re throwing up, even injuring yourself? Berating yourself because you didn’t lose ENOUGH weight this week? Constantly talking about how fat is weakness and thinness will make everything better, about how you can’t stand to be your current weight anymore? Emphasis on weight as a sign of how much control, strength, and worth you have? Viewing food as bad, as a temptation to sin? Constant sharing and talking about tips on how to minimize food intake, how to lose weight?
That sounds exactly like every pro-ana/pro-mia blog I’ve ever seen. It’s also what fat people are told we need to be doing to ourselves until we’re thin.

JUST A WARNING AND SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND: since most of the democratic states (e.g. the west coast) close their polls later than a lot of the republican states (e.g. georgia, kentucky) don’t be alarmed if romney seems to have a lead towards the beginning of the night

Images I love in this gif set
- The one where he’s surprised by the salad
- The nerdy face in profile
- The nerdy face straight on
- The one where he’s laughing with the salad
- The one where he’s smiling with the salad
- The one where he looks like he’s singing into the salad like it’s a microphone
- The one with the fork sticking out of his mouth
Oh…is that all of them? Yeah.

John: You heard a garbage truck?
