on the limit

okay yeah sure i kinda don’t understand how i can doompost by being too superstitious to doompost or manifest but yeah i can see how the superstitions can be kind of a pain in the ass unforch my blog my superstitions

the discourse around her body is so so so fucking disgusting

i get that these wags in general have almost unrealistic bodies and the public thinks they have a right to comment on them when they’re benefiting from an attention economy. but like. let’s have a modicum of respect

1- the body dysmorphia that emerges from calling a woman who looks like asm pregnant for pretty much the rest of that corner of the internet is ridiculous. it is an indefensible proposition under the context of ‘getting back at her for being fatphobic’ or whatever. i mean i certainly hope that’s not why people are doing this bc eye for an eye makes the whole world blind or whatever.

2- ultimately no women deserves to have this kind of scrutiny on their bodies. yeah, i don’t like it when women push unrealistic beauty and body standards (see: me growing up in the kardashian era of america) but often the people who actually give those standards weight and moral character are the very same peanut gallery shouting down alex rn. if i was on a gorgeous vacation with my gorgeous husband and my adorable dog and the first thing that comes out when i get papped is the whole UNIVERSE speculating that i was pregnant id kill someone with my bare hands. we have just got to be more chill as a collective

3- STOP FUCKING SPECULATING ABOUT PREGNANCY. this assertion has two subparts: the first is empathy and the second is heteronormative patriarchal norms.

a. this whole vitriol about her body gets worsened when people are using it as like an “oh she’s pregnant!!! rumor. let’s say for the sake of argument (a hypothetical assumption no way rooted in reality) she was pregnant. that’s NONE OF OUR FUCKING BUSINESS. and it’s like the internet never fucking learns- pregnancy can be scary stuff can go wrong and no one should ever be forced to factor in the internet during that kind of stress and grief. stop speculating stuff without information officially coming out

b. i know this comes dead last and no one’s gonna read it but it’s actually my most important point have we thought about why people are SO gung ho about asm being pregnant now??? like please “woman gets married now only job have kids” grunts the caveman on the internet. fuck offfff fuck off fuck off fuck off people are acting like it’s some inevitability that she must have kids and soon. and that’s just heteronormative patriarchal stereotypes speaking and they’re bullshit. the probability that any woman gets pregnant shouldn’t change just because she gets married.
