Why is Marvel casting white actors to play Asian characters?

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with loving my body. I don’t have to choose between being fat and beautiful, I can be both.

To claim that something is “just politics” is to point out how much privilege you have, either systematically or incidentally.

It's okay to dump your friends — even friends who have been there for you in the past. Remember today that you deserve good things and good people.

I’m very aware of the fact that I’m fat — trust me. I’ve had this body for longer than you’ve been familiar with it.

There’s a lot more to sexuality than meets the eye.

I barely had a chance to say “What’s taking him so long?” before he stepped up to the counter to ask me what he could help me with. Me. Not my friend who had been standing there for a minimum of twenty minutes waiting for assistance, but ME, the white girl.

Because you only get one shot at life.
