Alright, @nutty-megg You want to reply on this post in a way I'm forced to see your reply? Let's do this then! :)

1) You have seen ONE video. You're saying all of this bullshit and making assumptions about this figure skater because you've watched a single video. You know fuck all about this skater and her capabilities, let alone whether she does figure skating as a hobby. You know fuck all about other fat figure skaters who you've never even watched. You have the tiniest crumb of non-factual information about One. Person. and yet you're trying to act like you have facts the size of Mount Everest.

2) Whether or not she does figure skating professionally doesn't fucking matter, asshole. She still matters, her skills still matter, and none of that changes whether she skates for fun or professionally. When the fuck did I talk about professional skating in my previous reblog? When, fucker?

3) Guess what! Representation goes beyond professional skaters, bud! Representation goes beyond the Olympics! I don't even watch the Olympics, and countless other people don't either. That doesn't mean we've never seen a goddamn figure skater before. Are you kidding me???? Figure skating is represented IN SOCIETY. IN MEDIA. IN CONNECTIONS. IN BASIC KNOWLEDGE. I have seen countless figure skaters simply because of movies, TV shows, cultural osmosis even! AND NONE OF THOSE TIMES EVER INCLUDED A FAT PERSON. You have no fucking excuse. Fuck you for saying this has nothing to do with fatphobia! THIS HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH FATPHOBIA, YOU WILLFULLY IGNORANT ASSHOLE!!! There's no excuse for not even representing fat figure skaters in FICTIONAL CONTENT!!!!!!! In fact, one of the main examples of representation for figure skating out there—Yuri on Ice—is INFAMOUS FOR BEING FATPHOBIC!!!!! EVEN BEYOND WHAT BODIES ARE REPRESENTED IN THE SHOW!!!! Even fat Olympians aren't given the same amount of representation and sponsorships as thin Olympians, let alone thin athletes in general! It's harder for fat people to be athletes because fat people aren't given the same opportunities and spotlight as the goddamn thin athletes you're praising as superior! Fatphobia has EVERYTHING TO DO WITH THIS!

Do you think fat kids are properly included in sports? How about in media about kids doing sports? Do you think fat kids get to participate in sports without being discriminated against and mocked and oppressed? Fatphobia affects who is encouraged to do sports, who is included in sports, who can do sports without being harassed and abused, who is automatically told they won't be given a single chance to prove themself, whose bodies aren't considered when making and buying sports equipment, who's chosen to make the team, who's popular and well-liked on the team, who is given scholarships to continue to do sports, who gets the opportunity to do sports professionally, who is represented in media as doing those sports, and who's given the money needed to continue to do sports to the point of getting to the Olympics. You don't know SHIT if you think fatphobia has nothing to do with you having never seen a fat figure skater.

4) FUCK YOU AND DON'T FUCKING WRITE TO ME EVER AGAIN, YOU BIGOTED, ARROGANT ASSHOLE!

Just thought people may enjoy this :)

Bulking season

I don’t think he understood what his teammates meant when they offered to help him bulk up!

[artofkhaos404]

If being fat is inherently unhealthy no matter what, regardless of genetics and bone structure and whatever else, THEN EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THERE'S SO MANY FAT ATHLETES?! AND EXPLAIN WHY THEY'RE SO FREAKIN HOT?! TELL ME YOU WOULD'NT LET THESE WOMEN DROPKICK YOU IN A MINUTE LIKE HOT DAMN-

I aspire to be like these women. I've been working out for a couple months, not with the goal of losing weight, but with the goal of gaining muscle and strength, and I feel the healthiest I've ever been... but I'm not the lightest I've ever been. I feel better at 240 lbs, working out and not stressing as much about food than I did at 210 lbs and dieting.

Find what health is to you and don't let diet culture take your joy 🖤🖤🖤

all my advice about using real athletes to learn drawing bodies beyond hard abs, and my particular pref being wrestlers, also applies to women btw. you can draw women who r strong and not an hourglass shape. fucking do it.

kris statlander, rhea ripley (look at her SHAPE), willow nightingale, ruby soho, these r just four off the top of my head that have obvious musculature and different body types. skye blue and julia hart have more slim cheerleader style bodies as well, i REALLY wanted to put emi sakura who is fucking STOUT (adoring) in this post but i couldn't find a good demonstrative pic, the list goes on

DRAW DIFFERENT BODIESSSSSSSS

just wanted to say it's really awesome seeing the positive reception to chunky mikey LOVE YOU ALL 🧡🧡

[hohhie]

You think I haven't noticed? You think I don't see your attempts to squeeze your fat sides into skinny jeans? What if I told you that's not enough for me? I want you to be even bigger. A few more pounds on your hips won't hurt you, and I think your boobs should get bigger too. I like your cheeks, but I want them to be rounder. Please move less and eat more. Lie down more often. I like the contrast between us, because I'm generally very active. I can run very far, don't let me go✨ Do what I tell you, be obedient, bun 😌

A set of 23 geneticized & townified skins, including defaults for S1-S2-S3-S4 and the alien skin (choose between 2 alien options). Also, multiple sets of showerproof versions of these 23 skins, for those of you who are interested in custom body shapes.

This set is an evolution of this skin palette & its accompanying showerproof versions. I reused the old files, meaning that you can switch from the old palette to the new very easily (don't try to combine them though - see details under the cut).

Credit for the original skin textures goes to @whysim, @h0nkytonkangels, Nat / @theboldandthebeautifulsims, @pooklet and Tea Leaf, thank you so much to them!

First, let's talk about the regular set for Maxis shapes, then we'll get to the showerproof sets for custom body shapes.

1. The regular set

The palette contains 22 natural shades including S1, S2, S3 & S4 defaults + 2 options for the alien default (choose one). Skins 1-22 are geneticized and townified, the alien skins are townified. If you don't want all 23 skins, you can absolutely pick and choose, the genetic spectrum won't be disrupted.

original 1 - original 2 - original 3

original 4 - original 5 - original 6

original 7 - original 8 - original 9

original 10 - original 11 - original 12

original 13 - original 14 - original 15

original 16 - original 17 - original 18

original 19 - original 20 - original 21

original 22 - original 23 h0nky - original 23 TeaLeaf

I edited some of the original textures so that: • everyone TU-EU has the appropriate fat, normal and fit states (for the alien textures to show up as they should, please use Argon's alien and zombie fitness fix) • all elders have wrinkles, except on TeaLeaf's Stargazer (I used @simnopke's subtle wrinkles) • all toddlers have the cute toddler teeth and babies have no teeth, • teeth from Nat's, Pooklet's and Tea Leaf's skins were replaced either with ones from the Whysim skins or the ones used on @serabiet's Those Darn Skins, just because they're less bright and I like that better.

I also fixed the toes on the Whysim37 skins and edited some boobs ↓

The number at the end of every file name (e.g. 0.05, 0.08, 0.1...) gives you the genetic value of that skin. To learn more about skin genetics, see Rikkulidea's tutorial.

💞 To the people who were using the old palette and want to switch to this one: all you need to do is delete the old skins from your downloads folder and replace them with the new ones (don't forget to delete the alien default you don't want). The new skins are on the same files as the old ones (although they haven't all kept the same number), except for skin #11 which is new. This means that after you make the switch, your sims who had skins from the old palette will update without you having to do anything with their genetics in simPE. And if you change your mind after having a look at your sims with the new palette, you can always switch back to the old one. The same files being reused also means that you can't use skins from the new palette alongside skins from the old, as they will conflict. The only exception is new skin #11, which is on a new file and can therefore be used alongside the old palette without issue. All of that also applies to the showerproof skins.

2. The showerpoof skins

What are showerproof skins? They are skins linked to a custom body shape (or body shapes). When you give a showerproof skin to a sim, that sim will have the body shape that the skin is linked to when they are nude (taking a bath, streaking, doing ACR stuff, etc.). Showerproof skins have no effect whatsoever on clothing, because clothes use their own meshes.

These showerproof skins are for: • Melodie9 fat family • Momma Lisa F / Melodie9 Fat M • Androgyny F / Lifa's Trans M • Trans Melodie9 Fat M / Trans Momma Lisa • Dummy Thicc • MartaXL edit • Athletic Girl / Lean Body Builder

They are repo'd to the regular skins above: you need the regular set for the showerproof sets to work. Like the regular set, they're geneticized, except for the alien ones. You'll have to choose if you want them to be townified or not (townified skins can appear on new townies and NPCs that spawn, non-townified skins cannot).

The required meshes are included, don't forget to choose between blockfeet/sexyfeet/Marvine feet and Maxis hands/smooth hands. If you're missing meshes, the affected sims will appear as floating heads or will be missing half their bodies when naked (it won't break your game in any way, it's just definitely not the intended result).

Note on the included meshes: the original nude fat family meshes are from Melodie9's MTS, but turns out those are, well, not how top and bottom meshes are supposed to be: all of them are full-body, doubling the polycounts unnecessarily (I somehow only realized that today). So that's fixed now, and I took the opportunity to add preg morphs to the teen meshes.

Note on the included meshes: you'll have to choose between 2 versions, either "HD" or "low poly" (previews are included). The HD meshes are the top and bottom meshes that BlueHeavenSims shared here, with a couple tweaks (smoothed normals on the forearms, fixed shoulders on the LBB fat morphs) - they have sexyfeet, smooth hands, 3D nipples and are high-poly (6,454 poly for full-body AG; 8,601 poly for full-body LBB). The low-poly meshes are top and bottom meshes I made based on Marvine's original AG and Synapticsim's original LBB v.2.0 (I added morphs with BlueHeavenSims's morphs as reference) - they have blockfeet, Maxis hands and are low-poly (1,960 for full-body AG; 2,186 poly for full-body LBB).

Further info

All of these skins are tooltipped, have their custom thumbnails and are sortindexed so that they will appear tidily set after set in your custom skins bin. If you use other skins though, there is a chance that those will appear jumbled up with mine if their sortindex numbers happen to clash. It's only an aesthetic issue but if it bothers you, see this tutorial by Kurimas on how to change the order in which clothes appear in the CAS catalogue (it works for skins and other bodyshop content too).

Why make the showerproof skins repo-only? 1. Repo'd files = smaller files. 2. If you don't like the textures that I picked for the regular set, you can replace them with your favorites in simPE if you know how to do that and all the repo'd files will follow suit. This way you can get all the showerproof skins to have the textures that you like with much less work than if you had to edit them one by one.

Fat people...can and do have muscles (wow, I'm shocked)

"Hefty" is yet another of the million euphemisms people use to avoid saying the word "fat" because the most basic word to describe my body type is treated by this world as the equivalent of a taboo slur (I wonder why? 🤔)

Fat people can be of any health. Thin people can be of any health. If you think "healthy" is the automatic opposite of "fat," not only are you wrong in the dietary sense (our bodies do, in fact, need fats to survive), you're also wrong in a literal sense. You cannot look at a fat person and know their health. And making a fat person's worth dependent on their health is disgusting discrimination, bud.

"Those aren't fat" You looked at ALL of those photos and are saying that none of those people are fat? Zip? Zilch? Zero? Even the person on the goddamn fatphobic piece of shit "news" article fearmongering about "ob*sity" and thus directly categorizing the person in that photo as fat?

But above all else,

Fuck you for ignoring everything about this post, for ignoring the trauma of fat children, and for ignoring fat people's literal, actual oppression, asshole.
