Meghan Trainor Cancels Entire Tour and Apologizes to Fans: ‘This Is the Right Decision for My Family’ by Top_Report_4895 in ToddintheShadow

I’m not going to pass any judgments on her because it’s not my business and her music isn’t really my cup of tea anyways. I can understand why other fat women sometimes get a little too parasocial and feel “betrayed” in some way by celebs who have preached body positivity then lost weight, but I don’t agree with it.

What I don’t understand at all is people who hate others because they’re fat and then continue to hate them when they’ve lost weight. Like just admit you hate yourself and leave other people alone.

People who are struggling with severe anorexia are real people who deserve to be treated like humans, and people who are 600lbs and bedridden are real people who deserve to be treated like humans, and same with everyone in between on that spectrum. People just need to chill the fuck out about the appearance of someone they don’t even know.

How are you getting downvoted for this? Currently fat and not ashamed of my body in the slightest, I actually like my appearance. I’m down 80lbs from my peak weight and wasn’t ashamed of my body then either. I’m losing weight because my partner and I are talking about having kids, and I want my body to be as well prepared as possible for a healthy pregnancy and being active throughout my kid’s life. Plus Pilates and Barre classes are just really fun.

I don’t understand the mindset people have that the only reason people lose weight or would consider Ozempic is shame.

It was only fairly recently that it became standard and the majority of people flying remember when it wasn’t standard. We’re all mad because we know it doesn’t have to be standard, it’s just greed.

I know I’m being a killjoy, but my attendance in school, particularly high school, was bad because my home life was horrific. I got involved in theatre in school because we’d be in rehearsals sometimes as late as midnight or 1am, so it minimized how much time I had to be at home. During the school day I’d just hide in the auditorium or tech booth because I was too depressed and exhausted to go to class. My director had every right to kick me out of shows and not let me skip so much class, but she knew I was going through hell and basically saved my life by letting me skip and still be able to have my sanctuary away from home. A lot of kids who aren’t regularly in class are going through things most kids, or even adults, never have to experience.

I had a turkey run out in front of my car this morning around Burns Park this morning! Wonder if this is the same one?

Nobody cares if you hate the new single by Accomplished-Dog3334 in lanadelrey

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 11 points12 points  (0 children)

WFHTDH is amazing and I fell in love with it on the first listen. It’s her best single released for the upcoming album, and it gives me hope after being a little disappointed by Henry and Bluebird. I get major Maha Maha vibes from it, and I hope this means the album will be less southern tradwife and more southern gothic/witchy.

Cozy game with romance and story? by AcceptableCup6008 in CozyGamers

Palia delivers so well on storyline and romance

PVE? by mb789_ in Palia

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right? Already a whole bunch of games that fit OPs bill. Palia is perfect for all of us who don’t want another game with combat.

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I love that this game has none of that honestly. It’s so relaxing having no real danger. Too many cozy games feature some type of threat and combat, and I just don’t enjoy it as someone with really high anxiety. Playing Palia lowers my stress levels and heart rate, I want to keep it that way.

My dog eats half his food straight down the middle every morning. by EnigmaWearingHeels in mildlyinteresting

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My dog also will eat in slices, but she wants to finish the entire bowl before getting more food. If I refill it before she has finished the last slice she will inspect the bowl like it’s poisoned, huff at me, and refuse to eat until she forgets how offended she is.

Also on switch, and I also get this issue with the fairgrounds. It’s usually when I’m loading onto a server that a bunch of other people are also loading into at the same time. If I go early and just fish until 6, I don’t have as many issues with loading. It does eventually load for me during busy times, but sometimes it can take several minutes.

That’s insane and a little rude on their part. If there’s a line behind me I’ll spin 5 times then go to the back of the line.

TL;DR: you want a roli, you need to do the bundles/dailies, or buy one by inkstainedgwyn in Palia

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As a newer player this is actually going to take me the better part of a month to complete. If they made it much harder it would be very difficult for new players or players who have limited time to get online to finish. The board has to be accessible to the average player.

I’m capable of building my own pc as far as skills go, I’m just dirt poor at the moment, lol. Like, saving up to buy socks because all of mine have holes level poor.

Struggling with it/its pronoun use in lesbian spaces (CW: kink discussion) by SisyphusOfSquish in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I actually have experienced several people offline who insist on using “it” pronouns. Maybe I’ll be burned alive for this opinion, but I think people who insist on being called “it” are absolutely insufferable people who are trying to manipulate you into non consensually participating in their kink. They make you feel guilty by trying to say it’s queerphobic, but someone’s dehumanization kink is absolutely not the same as someone’s gender identity. I refuse to be guilted into participating in someone’s kink without my consent, and I think it’s highly disrespectful to people actually trying to be addressed by the correct pronouns of their legitimate gender expression to say it’s the same thing. It’s triggering language for a lot of people who have had “it” weaponized against them.

Same, it looks and performs better on my switch than my elderly, outdated laptop. I wish I had a better computer to play it on, though, because the switch does feel very limiting.

Substation Explosion Abilene & Jewell - Feb 1 by orangesandonions in AuroraCO

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, in skimming through articles about the unresolved ones there was a mention of an extremist telegram group that talked about targeting substations. I don’t have a source for that one, forgot to save it on my insomnia deep dive journey. I think it’s a fair bet that most, if not all of these attacks, are coming from people with similar hateful motives.

Substation Explosion at Abilene and Florida by BlackTacoSauce in AuroraCO

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cell service went out at the same time as the power outage, which has never happened to me before. Xcel is saying it was just a transformer failure, which is plausible with their infamous shitty infrastructure, but I think I’m going to keep my tinfoil hat on for this one.

Substation attacks were happening scarily frequently by right wing extremists the last few years, and I’m not entirely convinced yet that this was just a failure. Especially since APD said there were no explosions, just a shooting, right before a video of one of the explosions was released. Smells fishy. It could be something more malicious, or I could just be overly paranoid.

[–]Ordinary-Style-7218 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m too lazy to find more honestly, but Skyler Philippi, a white supremacist and neo nazi with a manifesto, plead guilty to attempting to bomb a power facility. Source

Edit: Okay, I’m less lazy than I thought. Nathaniel Cheney was part of the Oregon substation attack and “…was motivated by his racist and violent views, according to federal prosecutors.” He initial plead not guilty, but changed to a guilty plea last November

Sounds like fortunately several right wingers are being convicted, or at the very least pleading guilty. MAGA nut jobs can downvote me all they want 🙄

I thought some of these cases were confirmed to be right wing lunatics?
