Fulton Fry FTW!
Some wanker on a basketball discussion board posted this bit of off-topic idiocy: “Might come off as a dumb question but why is it that people end up getting overweight and stay overweight? Why would you not want to look your best and stay in the best physical shape possible.” After 73 comments of total predictableness, rad fatty Fulton Fry posted with totally awesome indignation and...

EEOC protects fat people's rights! →
I stand in solidarity with people of all sizes and all ability levels who will need and use this legal protection! Thank you, EEOC!!! (I’ll still keep working for civil rights based on height and weight, too!)

BellaOnline kindly invited me to talk about the social media prank I’m promoting for New Year’s Day, where instead of making any nasty weight-loss resolutions, people are invited to make New Year’s Revolution! Change your Facebook profile photo to an image of something that makes you feel good in/about your body! Tweet, Tumbl, and blog about it, too!

Tangled Up In Lace: People Are Allowed To Lose... →

Just as you should be allowed to do what you want with your body without judgment, so should they. News Flash: Not everyone… People get to do and believe whatever they want. But permanent weight loss is very rare. For the vast...

I also appreciate Southern Poverty Law Center for publishing an article in Teaching Tolerance about bullying of fat children, a few years back.
