A Gay Space Ace

A Pokemon only counts for itself, not its evolution line.

A Pokemon with multiple forms (like Zygarde) will only be counted for the specified form. A Pokemon with multiple appearances (like Spinda, Vivillon, Sylvally, etc.) count for all their appearances.

I already buy beach towels to dry myself off with because it's easier than looking for bath towels that fit me, so labeling a beach towel "oversized" because this world is made solely for thin people is just added cruelty. I've been using beach towels to dry myself off with even when I was in the low 200s weight range.

What's fucking wild is that 99.999999% of thin people are blissfully ignorant of what the world is like for fat people. They have no clue what it's like to have to check the weight capacity of a chair on a website before buying it or seeing everything that's the perfect size for you being labeled "oversized." They don't know what it's like not being able to find clothes that fit you at a regular store, thrift store, online store, or even those plus size stores that only go up to a 3XL and just resize thin people clothing.

They don't know what it's like being thankful to learn online that Plan B doesn't work for most fat people before you bought and assumed in a post-roe world that Plan B will be effective. They don't know what it's like to live in a world where everyone freely hates and discriminates against you without even having backlash from progressives and people who claim to support equality, because oppressing you is just accepted fact even to the people who fight for the rights of all of your other oppressed identities. They don't know what it's like to live in a world where hating you is so expected and normalized that it's ingrained into your own people to the point that you literally cannot trust that

anyone you meet

not a single person

who looks like you will share solidarity.

None.

Whenever a thin person suddenly becomes fat, that is the closest we have to a person realizing they've been living in the Matrix. The most intense epiphany you'll ever have is rapidly becoming fat and then seeing how this world changes for you almost overnight.

"medicine isn't as helpful" that's the fatphobia hun. They don't test medicine on larger bodies. Equipment isn't avaliable for larger bodies. This is the 21st century they could do it. There is no "healthy weight" healthy is not dependent on weight- you aren't guaranteed anything by having a certain weight. You can be thin and unhealthy. This is 101 level stuff.

Remember kids:

They can't make chairs/clothes/whatever for us but we are an epidemic on the evening news, make it make sense.

"They don't fit on our equipment, we need to send them to the ZOO for equipment of that size." - okay, but that means the equipment exists. So that's a procurement problem on your end, not a problem with their weight.

"Our nurses keep hurting themselves having to lift them!" - that's a staffing issue guys. Not a weight issue. More nurses would mean less to lift per person, and would help.

"We don't have needles long enough to do this biopsy." - Get longer needles.

This kills people. That biopsy is delayed. That surgery is delayed. That tumor or cyst or whatever the sonogram was supposed to check out isn’t properly investigated.

The idea that all fat people‘s lives can just wait for the unlikely event they’ll be thin so doctors will start treating them is fucked up. We all know you can’t just sit on health problems and expect them to not get (often dramatically) worse!

Why is it ok for fat people‘s cancer to go undetected, so you don’t have to get proper equipment? To tell them to diet and come back in a year? A year that makes the difference between stage 1 and stage 3 or 4?

It's a sea sheep, and those dots *are* eyes!

Slugs and snails that live on land also have eyes (on the tips of the eye stalks, or sometimes at the base)!

Another gastropod, the whelk, has even more elaborate eyes:

And octopuses, another type of mollusk, have eyes so advanced that in some ways they make ours look backwards (no retinal blind spot, the image isn't upside-down to be corrected by the brain):

How do we feel about bivalves? Scallops, clams, etc. (Those little blue dots are simple eyes.)
