If reincarnation is real I wonder how many people stare at their own art in museums, listen to their own music they made in a different life and read books they don't remember writing

funny and silly are definitely related but not syynonyms. like silly is if funny and cute built a car together

okay lemme rephrase this by saying people will love you with this stuff. not really despite - this suggests "ppl will overlook your flaws and love you".

all of these things are naturally occurring. whether you think they are opponents of beauty or not is your own personal opinion but I believe that to fully denounce capitalist & patriarchal constructions of beauty we need to accept things like pimples and bloating* and body hair and weight fluctuation** as neutral. we have no business demonising these things nor trying to completely subvert norms and saying these are marks of beauty.

physical and superficial beauty is wholly entirely a construct, a fake construct. and i think the use of the phrase "best version of yourself", while used lovingly here, can be very dangerous bc it does still insinuate that these things - pimples and body hair - are obstacles to 'achieving' a better, more beautiful self. and this is simply not true.

*bloating: its also time we move away from conflating bloating to a visual mark of anything. bloating is an internal sensation... we have just come to use it synonymously with visible 'fat' or weight on the belly which it isn't

**weight fluctuation: again, weight is a morally neutral metric of mass and heaviness, and the same weight measurement can look entirely different on 2 ppl of the same height because fat is not the only thing that comprises weight. so we really really need to stop referring to or thinking of weight and its fluctuations as a measure of our beauty and/or self worth bc this is literally scientifically impossible. if you mean body image or visible "fat" then those clear terms need to be used (which again, you can't always be sure if a larger part of ur body is due to an increase in fat or muscle just by looking at it)

i know that when u are battling deep rooted insecurities and hatreds for things like these, the concept of "ppl will love me in spite of this" is a stepping stone to "ppl will love me with this bc they will love all of me equally". but i just felt the need to pick this apart because language and connotations are so so important in self love

people will still love you despite it all!! they will love you with some pimples on your face. they will love you if your stomach is bloated. they will love you if your legs aren’t shaved. they will love you even if you stutter or if you’re weight has fluctuated or if you aren’t the best version of yourself. they will love you despite it all.

#I'm not trying to 'um actually' here but #it just makes me very upset when we can never miss the toxic positivity and make it straight to radical acceptance #and the idea that none of this matters at all and what you think looks good or not is smth for you to decide for yourself #and if you think things such as pimples and visible hair and body size are metrics of beauty I wholeheartedly disagree #and think that's a terrible way to measure our capacities for any sort of love

it is not normal for grown men to find teenage girls sexually attractive. in fact, the older you get, the less attractive teenagers should become. i cannot believe people are arguing about this

[chamelis]

i mean this in the gentlest way possible: you need to eat vegetables. you need to become comfortable with doing so. i do not care if you are a picky eater because of autism (hi, i used to be this person!), you need to find at least some vegetables you can eat. find a different way to prepare them. chances are you would like a vegetable you hate if you prepared it in a stew or roasted it with seasoning or included it as an ingredient in a recipe. just. please start eating better. potatoes and corn are not sufficient vegetables for a healthy diet.

[chamelis]

the cure to self-sabotage is to anchor yourself to the universal truth that you are worth it. you are worth the effort. you are worth the difficulty, you are worth the time, you are worth the consideration. there is never a point in your life, in time itself, that you are not worth it. return to this truth when you feel yourself slipping. do not let it go.
