⚕️ There's More To Me Than You (Chapter 2)

Short Snippet from 2CHH

“Former roommate, darling.” Gabe squeezed her hand and leaned up on his tiptoes to kiss her cheek, “No one to worry about… Unless he’s spent the last 13 years trying to track me down.” “Yeah, no. Definitely not - thanks. We did just fine on our own.” He didn’t mean for his word to come out so acidic, he truly didn’t, however… “But since I’m here and you’re here, maybe we should talk, huh?” Gabe bristled but nodded, tearing a crumpled back of cigarettes from his pocked and nodding back toward the door. “Sure, lemme just… Let me explain to Lei first and I’ll be out in a minute.” He shifted uncomfortably; taking Leilani by the hand and saying a very quick hello to Jess and Matt, who were standing frozen by the stairs. Eddie’s vision panned back to Steve, eyes flitting side to side as the interaction and timeline synced in his head, “Is that…?” He hummed, leaning back into Steve’s arms and closing his own eyes for a moment, “Are you okay?” “Yeah, Stevie. I’m fine. Actually, this could be good for me. Closure, you know?” Steve’s arms tightened around him, “I promise, it’s okay. If it’s not, I’ll come get you.” “I… okay.” “You gonna be mad if I bum a cigarette off him?” Eddie tried to joke, “I think I might need one…” “Never.” Steve said, quickly, pressing a kiss to the crown of his head, “Hell, take a puff for me. Not every day you catch up with friends just to find the runaway other-parent of your kids, right?”

No Pressure Tag List: @pentapoctopus @hbyrde36 @queenofshenanigans

Do you ever wonder what goes on in the mind of the average fatphobe, Tumblr? I do. I spend a lot of time going head to head with the blighters on Quora. Not in any hope of changing their mindset, obviously, because nothing short of a well aimed ice-pick is likely to do that. But perhaps I can change the mindset of a person like my younger self, who internalised their judgement as truth to her detriment, by showing them up for the irrational bullies they are. What can I say? It’s a hobby.

Seriously though, WTF is it these days with the endless accusations of “glamorising”, “promoting”,“normalising” – and even, on one occasion, “legitimizing” – obesity? Absolutely anything can trigger this response, from news that a high street clothing chain is slightly expanding its size range; to the use of plus-sized models to sell plus-sized clothes to plus-sized women; to featuring a fat runner making like a fat runner on the cover of Runner’s World. (Bad role model, incidentally, because fat). It’s all the Thin End of the Wedge for these pearl-clutching dipshits. And  make no mistake, they’re running scared. But from what exactly?

I used to think it was fear of having their favourite chew-toy prised out of their smack-talking jaws. For the last few decades hating on fat folk for our own good has been endemic in the west, but bit by bit, kickback is starting to inch into the mainstream. And if the majority ever starts to view us as human individuals rather than a faceless scourge, sizeism could become less acceptable, less defensible even, then before you know it, BOOM! it’s pick on someone your own size, sunshine. But while that may be a significant contributor to their unease, there are additional factors at play in these accusations of glorification and endorsement. For a kick off they’re a crock. We all know that droves of slim-to-average sized people aren’t declaring their intention to become as fat as possible, nor are fat people encouraging them to do so.

The fact is that weight neutrality and self-acceptance among fat individuals genuinely rattles our most vocal detractors, which is why they persistently misrepresent the Fat Acceptance movement and discredit Health At Every Size, despite it being a bona fide medically supported programme. It’s why, when faced with a fat person not actively engaged in trying to shrink their body their stock reaction is to yell, “glorifying obesity!” Their anxiety centres around what might happen if the belief that it’s not fat people’s bodies that need fixing but our toxic cultural climate, becomes more commonplace. Greater numbers of fat people speaking up – and, crucially, being listened to; the media our hater-base consumes perhaps taking a more liberal, weight-neutral stance in keeping with the changing times. More routine inclusion of people with fat bodies in fashion magazines; weight-blind casting for the big and small screens; fewer ‘Best And Worst Beach Body’ covers on the supermarket checkout rags. Possibly, (please God and over time), a cultural shift in the way the pursuit of optimum health is presented – no longer a moral obligation or even a universal possibility; simply a choice if that’s what floats your boat, no more or less moral than joining the local am-dram outfit, or collecting vintage snowglobes. But what would that mean for them?

It’s not just that the currency of hard won – or happenstantial – thinness is devalued if one type of body is no longer privileged over another. I’ve been around enough people with eating disorders and compulsive behaviours to recognise that the portion of society that fulminates at total strangers for opting out of a lifestyle they feel compelled to adhere to, is rife with both. Certainly many describe lives of extreme deprivation and Herculean self control. However liberating oneself from diet culture also takes tremendous strength of will and I suspect for all their censorious gum-flapping deep down they know that, and fear they mightn’t have the courage to free themselves from what seems to me an utterly joyless existence.

Just some thoughts currently swirling around in my head.

By the way, isn’t this a delightfully loud frock? It’s bamboo and soooo soft, and doesn’t appear to pill or fade or shrink or any other nasties. It’s the heaviest of the Taking Shape dresses I bought this year, and good for chillier days like today, with the addition of tights. It’s also capacious enough to layer beneath, so versatile as well as colourful.

Dustin McNeill has found a unique niche as a non-fiction author with in-depth explorations of the making of genre films. After covering Phantasm (Phantasm Exhumed), Freddy vs. Jason (Slash of the Titans), and Jaws (Adventures in Amity), McNeill teamed with co-author Travis Mullins to tackle the entire Halloween franchise in last year's Taking Shape: Developing Halloween from Script to Scream. Because every great horror movie gets a sequel, so too does their book.

As the title suggests, Taking Shape II: The Lost Halloween Sequels examines the Halloween installments that never made it to the screen, from sequels and prequels to reboots and crossovers. 24 unmade projects are profiled chronologically over the course of the massive, 600-page paperback coffee table book. Equally as valuable as the breakdowns of each concept are the interviews with the creatives involved that conclude each chapter. The candid discussions bring clarity to many of the unanswered questions you may have while reading about the projects (like, "What were they thinking?!").
