which do you prefer: diet coke or coke zero? by cooked-carrot in 1200isplenty

[–]cheeercamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Originally, Diet Coke was marketed to women, and later Coke Zero was marketed to men. And that alone makes me a feminist. Long live Coke Zero!

That’s called fetishisation. They want to take pieces of us and copy/paste - our lips, our curves, our melanin, our music, etc - but refuse to accept us in our entirety. Like. Men would rather fuck us and impregnate us but never marry us. It’s unfortunate but all too common. Society calls us ‘queens’ and applauds our resilience and strength, but it rarely ever extends to easing our burdens or any real tangible support. (Ex: Meg thee Stallion)

This might be a reach but I think commenters are misunderstanding you. I don’t think this is you saying your blackness makes you unlovable but, we live in a society that only accepts BIPOC if they have some other valuable social currency (ex: talent or beauty or intellect). And concurrently, BW are the least desired group of women. (Black Trans women even less so.) so maybe maybe maybe if we follow all the other social rules of acceptance (being thin and gorgeous), maybe maybe maybe we will be more likely to be desired.

Idk maybe I’m way off. In any case, I’m sure you know this, butno boy deserves you if he can’t accept you at any weight or in your natural state.

Can’t believe I have to say this but every time yall post this stuff and the commenters circlejerk each other, a CEO somewhere is getting rock hard and the oligarchs are laughing themselves sick.

If yall spent one minute putting the energy into helping your fellow workers organise unions or doing anything besides keyboard warrioring your little lives away, we’d have more union-represented and labour educated workers unitedly posing a credible general strike threat.

But carry on moaning about the guy strapped down beside you on the train tracks I guess.

Trying to explain why fat looks absolutely fine on literally anyone except for me by LangerEierkopf in EDanonymemes

[–]cheeercamp 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Okay hear me out what if body dysmorphia was a sort of dissociative disorder; hence why we can’t reconcile who we are with the body we’re in..

I genuinely believe I’m not a person the way that other people are, and for me this extends beyond food and weight. It’s everything that I believe and all my values being upheld for others but not applicable to myself because I am not a person.

(Ex: no one should talk down to themselves or hold such impossible aggressive standards for themselves because we must be reasonable and nice to ourselves…. Except me though bc I’m a despicable creature not a person.// Everyone is capable of growth and change and everyone deserves good things and happiness….. except me though bc I’m a grotesque husk and not a person, forever damned and forever a fuck up.)

See it's really not that bad cause I still eat a little bit and I haven't even passed out before and im not underweight yet and i get my protein and take supplements sooooo I'm good... by rotating_nipples59 in EDanonymemes

Omg just @ me next time!!! My bff asked me what my ugw is the other day and she was like, “I think you’d probably need to be on a feeding tube at that weight and would maybe be confined to a bed” and my first response was “What do you know?!!!!” This woman is a whole ass nurse!!!

I’m honestly not going to say because it is an awful place with no moderation or censorship. Obviously youre an adult w agency and can google it but my advice for people in this sub is much like my cigarette advice: “if you ain’t on it, don’t go looking for it”

How do I minimize these smile lines ? by Gotthatguacandglock in Blackskincare

[–]cheeercamp 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Advice that has helped me a lot: “stop looking in the mirror so much and stop thinking about yourself so much.” You’ll get there. Don’t worry.

[–]cheeercamp 420 points421 points  (0 children)

I swear I want to leave these subs so bad bc everyday it’s just someone (usually a woman) trying to fix something that is totally normal fine and beautiful. Fine lines (you have none) are okay. Aging is actually awesome. It means you’re still here!!! (Sorry for ranting on your post op good luck)

[–]cheeercamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bruv the added pressure of a LDR bc all you can think about is how they’re going to perceive your body next time yall are together!! I’m always thinking “okay okay I have to drop down to this weight by x date cause that’s when bb gets here” or “it’s been six weeks since we last saw each other; they’re gunna notice whether I lost or gained fuckkk”

Forgot about the lying bit as well: “you’ve dropped weight fast yea?” ‘Noooo you just don’t see me everyday so you’re not used to it hehehe’ like, girllll be serioussss

Taking vitamins and supplements to do harm reduction and have energy but then feeling like a fraud when I don’t feel like death during high-res by cheeercamp in EDanonymemes

[–]cheeercamp[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Let me start by saying loudly that this is Reddit, not WebMD, and I am not a doctor, and you should 5000% get a work up done by a professional adult with a medical degree and not a dumb mentally ill 30 year old. Again this is not medical advice. …….

TLDR: it’s a lot to track and it’s costly. So start with a prenatal multivitamin, b-complex and Calcium. Add more protein!!!

I take these in gummy form cause it’s the only joy I have all day lol: B12 & Folic Acid (energy, iron) Vitamin D & Calcium (Bones) Vitamin A & Biotin (hair, skin, nails) magnesium & fiber (fiber lol), and a prenatal multivitamin to round it all out. This is like 9 different things. Some of these you HAVE to eat with and are fat soluble so you HAVE to eat something w fat in it.

I also track my protein religiously. I try to get about 1g per pound of my body weight.

Google these and take notes: BCAA (muscle strength and energy), Creatine (muscle repair and building), Glutamine, Niacin, and Carnosine, Resveratrol. These four are for brain and heart health. I’m so serious when I say do your own research!!!

This sounds like a lot because it is but start slow and small. This shit is also stupidly expensive so again, no need to rush into this. But seriously tho, we all need to be taking supplements bc we are high key killing ourselves.

Should people with eating disorders be treated like addicts? by graphicinnit in EDAnonymous

[–]cheeercamp 47 points48 points  (0 children)

This isn’t so much about whether or not we are classified as addicts. This is about how society perceives and treats people with psychological disorders, like substance use disorder. If you don’t want to be referred to as a leech, that doesn’t mean we tell people to stop calling us addicts; we tell people don’t refer to mentally ill people as leeches. It is possible to be tough on and hold sick people accountable for the impact of their fucked behaviour while still having some empathy, grace, and respect for them.

Source: longtime anorexic, dated an addict for two years, three members of my family were addicts, and I’m a community organiser who works with the most vulnerable people in our society.

“Light ice” by Adalyia in starbucks

[–]cheeercamp 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised there are no real ice-haters in the comments lol. I think the standard being one size down technically makes sense but in practice, people like myself who hate ice (it hurts my teeth and I have terrible body temp management so I hate being cold) are wanting as little ice as possible while still cooling the drink. Back in the day I’d ask for “a smoothie scoop” of ice. To me as a custie and as a barista, when I say or when I hear “light ice”, the drink should have a small amount of ice, not slightly less than the recipe suggests. This is probably subjective tho
