It's Well Established That Many Artists Genuinely Don't Seem To Know What Fat Looks Like, But I'm Convinced

It's well established that many artists genuinely don't seem to know what fat looks like, but I'm convinced a lot of them have no idea what hairy looks like, either. If I see one more artist who's like "oh, I love fat hairy guys!" and their work is just a solid wall of dudes of average build with a neat patch of hair in the middle of the chest, nothing on the belly, nothing on the forearms... well, I'm probably not going to do anything about it, but I'll definitely keep on complaining.

you know as disabled people it's actually pretty scary that you can't trust your doctors. like people who have medical trauma or distrust or dislike doctors and nurses aren't doing it for fun. we need these guys to help with our lives. we need healthcare to stay alive or to stop from getting worse, or to function at all. but often when you're dismissed and not communicated with you're left floundering and often have to make decisions yourself without that specialist knowledge. sometimes doctors know less than you about your disability anyway. sometimes they're wrong and give you advice that's detrimental to what you need or want, and you kinda have to just trust that the next guy is also not wrong. i think we're pretty lucky if we can find other people with our condition who are well researched in it. but i still think that uncertainty is something that disabled people shouldn't have to navigate

“You shouldn't force-feed your children! They might be autistic or have ARFID!” even if your child is perfectly healthy and is genuinely just a picky eater you shouldn't force-feed them.

Literally nothing worse than having ARFID and being sick

this may seem extreme but i believe people who say things like this should die
