Time for another "Tock the Gnome" world building post, dear readers!!

This week, we’re looking at a role someone can choose to fill in inspiration to others – one that used to belong to a specific type of faerie in the distant past….

It will never cease to amaze me that someone can actually be angry about a fat person not hating themselves. Does my joy take away from yours? My confidence make you more insecure? Why am I not allowed to feel happy or proud just because I am fat?

You seem to have a problem with even looking at me, but I’m the one who has to listen to your hate. And to me, that seems like a whole lot more ugliness to bare than a few rolls and dimples.

While drawing this, the only thing on my mind was cosmic love by Florence and that machine.

I got pretty sick of this song but it's still soooo gooooood

I feel like a tier cake! I’m layered with fat, sass and positive vibes! XDD

We have evidence of fat people existing all the way back in ancient human populations. Thousands and thousands and thousands of years of history.

Before capitalism.

Before food deserts.

Before sedentary lifestyles.

Before Coca-Cola.

Before the "ob*sity epidemic."

Before it became profitable to oppress fat people.

Before your mom worried about her stretch marks and weight gain from giving birth to you.

Before insurance companies wanted excuses to charge people more, let alone before insurance companies even existed.

Before food was readily available.

Before added sugar was even possible.

Before farming.

Before the end of hunter-gatherers.

Before civilizations.

Before we knew how to turn maize into corn.

Before the ancient pyramids.

Before the bible.

Before the creation of modern day nations.

There's evidence since the beginning of human beings making art of human beings.

We were here before Weight Watchers, and we will be here after Weight Watchers. We will be here after every attempt at eliminating us. After every attempt to make us conform, to abuse us, to silence our voices and history. Every try at taking away our children and murdering us, we will be here.

Fat people have been here all along, and the science confirms that we are never going to disappear no matter how hard you try to erase us from this world.

It will never not baffle me how hard society tries to insist that fatness is an abnormality. The average western woman wears plus size clothing. One of the smallest garments on the scale is called a medium. Most people with anorexia are in the overweight bmi category, yet somehow that's known as "atypical anorexia". Fatness is often labeled the cause of a number of diseases, but there are literally no diseases exclusive to fat bodies. Looking at movies and television, you'd think the world was 98% thin people. It's not.

My point isn't that if it was pretty rare to be fat, fatphobia would be okay. Of course not.

My point is that we're surrounded by all these artificial indicators that fatness is unnatural and uncommon and it's just not true?? Humans are not always thin and we've never all been thin and we're not all meant to be thin. Fat humans are a normal type of human. Fatness is a feature, not a bug.

This is the kind of shit that children get shown, and then we wonder why kids too young to even know the alphabet think fat people are bad. Fat people are horrifically oppressed and stigmatized, and the enforcement of those views, that oppressive treatment, begins as soon as the child is in the womb—when their parents are worried about post-birth stretch marks.

Hey, I wanted to let you know that I found a blog attacking anything and anyone fat positive on here, and warn people to block them so they can't harm others. They claim that being fat is wrong, and that it's only a matter of having self control to lose weight, and they specifically go after blogs that are positive towards fat people. The blog is @/anything-but-self-control

Somehow this piece of shit has a wife. Hope she divorces them. They are like that one post about finding out your partner is a reddit troll.

Anyway this bully posted about making another blog:

block both of them

SRVCS and anything-but-self-control . Im gonna put this in a bunch of the tags because this asshole obsesses over tags fat people use.

I don't like having to do this but this person refuses to leave fat folks alone and we need to protect ourselves even if its in this little way. Someday I hope they grow up.

Btw don't harass them because they won't listen. Ice them out and protect your spaces.

Begging skinny people to be normal about fat people on hikes. I don't need you to tell me how much you admire me or to keep going (someone genuinely told they admire me today. Im literally just walking). I just want to hang out with my boyfriend and get some sun. I'm not doing this to lose weight you and even if it was I don't want strangers encouraging me. Leave me be.
