YWNBAM. you are a delusional yaoi-obsessed heterosexual woman.

you will never be a real biological homosexual male :)

yawn. come up with a better way to insult me. ur boring. i hope someday you find love in your heart and figure out why you're so angry.

who said i wanted to be a "biological" man? i have never wished to be cis i love being transsexual

[inkskinned]

im gonna start a fight; and, at the same time, i need you to take this in the most good-faith way possible, but:

videos that involve body-checking and intentionally (and uncritically) show a mealplan of an unhealthy number of calories are just a revamped version of pro-ana food diaries.

and yeah, i know there's arguments. i address some of them under the cut. but at the end of the day, we're just coming back to romanticizing mental illness; we've just found a better platform for it.

this is already something we've done. we knew it was wrong and tried to stop it. and tbh. it just wasn't enough.

there are people who argue "well, what if you have an eating disorder, you can't help it if you don't eat!" except that as someone with an ED; we are not infants. we know what we're doing. part of having an ED is that you are like, maybe too self-aware. even if we can't help our own food choices, we don't need to fucking romanticize the disorder - something we've been warning you about since 2013. there are hours of setup, filming, and editing that go into these videos. they do not happen to fall into place randomly. there is a reason they are pieced together to be beautiful, bright, inspiring.

there's this woman who pretty much only posts daily plans under a normal amount of calories, and everyone defends her saying but it's better than nothing! and i'm like. except she opens those with images of her showing off her body and provides no context in the video or caption that suggests that she believes what she's doing is unhealthy. she has hundreds of thousands of followers on a platform designed for young kids and teens. i refuse to believe that by accident her content just happens to be cheery advice on "healthy" versions of starving.

for any other symptom of mental illness, we would be incredibly enraged by this kind of placid acceptance of a "tips and tricks" fast-start guide. imagine if people posted pink & pretty videos saying "best places to cut yourself" as if it was a fucking storytime. we, as a society, are so fucking fatphobic that we would rather accept blatantly harmful displays of self harm than admit that we are obsessed with a hyper-thin body type.

i am not suggesting someone never talks about their disorder. i talk about mine. actually, it's a plot point in my book.

here's the difference: i recognize it's a fucking mental illness. i am very careful to never mention a specific weight, eating pattern, or calorie plan. i always make sure to position it as something that ruined my fucking life. i do not put cheery music in the background and hearts and sparkles over my worst moments. i do not film it in bright light. i do not start each passage with an image of a thin body followed by "here's how to look like her."

eating disorders should not be framed as aspirational. and the problem is that society worships the "after" image, so long as you don't get too sick. there is a reason so many people who quit being "influencers" will later admit - i wasn't eating well that whole time; an obsession with food was completely destroying my life.

we let any uncredited, uncertified person write the most backwards, fucked up shit about how to get the body you desire! because the underlying, secret belief is: well, at least they're thin! and the real thing that fucking gets me each time - they make fucking money off of it. their irresponsibility and societal harm literally pays off for them.

"why do you care so much." "don't like it don't look." "so what if people experiment with new ways of thinking of food?"

thank you for asking. we're about to get extremely personal. it's because when i was 18 i discovered "thinspiration"/"thinspo." and it absolutely influenced, shaped, and codified my pre-existing eating disorder. i went from having some troubling habits and traits to being incredibly unwell within what felt like a matter of days. there were actual pages designed to train me on how to have an ED correctly. it was all so suddenly easy. i was sick; and the nature of the illness meant - i wanted to be sicker.

it takes an average of 7 years for a person to fully recover. i know this personally - even now, 10 years from the worst of it, i still fucking struggle. i am so much happier now and i eat what i want and i literally don't think about food at all (19 year old me would shudder) and yet - i still fucking know the calories of plain toast with butter.

an eating disorder is one of the deadliest types of mental illness. over 1 in 4 people with an ED will attempt suicide.

and i'm sorry. i just do not see the exchange rate of "high rate of engagement" versus "the value of a human life."

Tfw when ur girl can’t stand the thought of you catching her at a moment of weakness so she represses and manipulates most emotions and situations in a desperate attempt to avoid any chance of you reaching out to support her because she’s terrified of not being good enough not only to you and the people around you but to herself as well and also she’s a ragdoll and you’re a jester and there’s no escape from this madness that brought all this upon you two in the first place LMFAO.

because abby is the hottest member in the itty bitty titty committee (sorry ellie) she doesn’t wear a bra at home or when running errands. basically if she’s not at work, school, or practice, she’s going sports bra-less. and goddamn does she look sooooo goooood! *~*

sometimes in the morning you will sit outside for breakfast. you’re completely bundled up but abby runs hot so she’s just wearing bottoms and a short sleeve t-shirt. a shirt that is just tight enough for you to see her nipples as they harden from the breeze. you are able to keep your eyes up for the first few minutes but suddenly abby moves and ding! your eyes are there. you feel like such a creep but c’mon! it’s nipples on boobs! your girlfriend’s boobs! it’d be a crime not to look. unbeknownst to you, abby is aware of your inner monologue, being able to read you so well after so long together. she saw you glance at her chest when she first felt the breeze. she was onto you. and if she happened to push her chest forward in a faux stretch, who’s gonna know?

"i crave academic validation really bad and talk about being an ex-gifted kid all the time and i think getting good grades traumatized me somehow i'm going to post this online while being 24." babes. it's not academic validation you crave. go and develop an intrinsic sense of self and an unshakeable sense of worth. that's what you need. not grad school. yes i know in many ways it's harder than going to grad school. stop being afraid of yourself and get to work about it.

"Do you think we're lovers in every universe?" She asked softly watching the clouds above roll by. The grass felt soft, warm against her scaled skin as she traced a heart against the back of his.

"Why wouldn't we be?" He sounded deeply sincere as if unable to imagine a world without them together. She smiled feeling herself melt at his tenderness.

Gorgug Thistlespring was far to good to be true.

She was the luckiest woman alive.
