tbh the first step of recovery is to stop feeling kind of proud about how fucked up you are. your martyr complex is not an endearing quirk it’s the fatal flaw that makes your friends feel like garbage and will sabotage your whole life.

i still can’t believe “our age of bronze is collapsing” is a line from the odyssey. bro i can’t believe we’re in the middle age right now. it’s such a nice day in feudal japan rn. i’m so glad we are having this agricultural revolution.

and the fuck of it all is i will never see internet defend a fat women as vehemently as it defends sick thin women #iwonderwhy

& i am not saying women struggling with ED don't deserve grace but there is something so insidious about the way you'll see so many people turn our worry about their physical & mental health into "it's their body" "it's their choice" "she's just naturally that thin" etc arguments. they'll swear up & down about how we are being invasive & anti-feminist but a mid or plus woman cannot exist in public eye without being called 5 different insults for just existing. like no i am not being parasocial by noticing how suddenly every female celebrity is bony thin, yes they're the victims of this system too but we have to call this trend out & stop it right here to free them from this torment as well. i do not want little girls to grow up with the same "nothing tastes better than how skinny feels" trend. let's all be more critical of what pop culture pushes as a norm okay?
