Posted in Football cancelled but schools not shut??
Posted 5 years ago
At my school in America, the school's sports game (don't remember/care which sport it was) wasn't cancelled, they just restricted the attendance to only the teams and immediate family. Which is still ridiculous since schools all over the place are making plans for cancelling. My school went on the intercom saying to take school materials home but there for some reasons aren't any actual plans to cancel school yet.

Might not sound very tasteful but I think it would be really funny to have a background item of stacks of toilet paper, a massive bottle of hand sanitizer, a foreground item that's like a police-tape thing that says CANCELLED on it, some empty shelves, quarantine suits, and some sort of paranoid facial expression

I love the art style. It's very clean and clear to the audience what's happening. My problem only lies in the perspective issue in the 4th panel. The buildings are being viewed from a very downward angle, while the guy running is still in the perspective of someone standing right next to him when it should also be from above. I struggle really bad with perspectives of humans, too, it's a pretty difficult thing to grasp

@MoodyBats: I get all of that. Family members constantly shitting on me for what I eat saying I need to stop being vegan for a year and just eat nothing but meat, devaluing me every chance they get, doesn't help I have to live with some of those family members.
My weight's been fluctuating between a very concerning 85-90 pounds (38-40 kilos) recently, and I'm 5'2". I dream to be at 110 pounds one day but that seems like a very distant fantasy. I really hope when I go on birth control it helps at least a little bit with my weight.

@Totalanimefan: I've tried going to therapists before and for some reason it never really helped me much. I'm definitely trying my best to be positive about myself, I just got frustrated and needed to say something about this

I constantly see people online talking about how mentally damaging being overweight is, then proceed to get tons of people telling them that they're perfectly fine the way they are.
Then I turn around and see other people complain about being underweight, then proceed to be harassed and shit on for not being "grateful" for not being fat.
I have a high high high metabolism that's hard to keep up with, so I'm very thin. I've been told by my doctor that I'm underweight and need to work on it (which I am trying to get better). And yet, when I complain about it, I get shit on by other people about complaining. Every time I get out of the shower and have to see myself in the mirror, I have to rush to cover myself up or I will have a mental breakdown, I'm constantly hiding myself in baggy clothes, I wear long sleeves and pants during the summer, just so I don't have to deal with looking at myself.
I'm not devaluing the issues overweight people have, I'm just saying that underweight people deal with the same issues, just on a different spectrum.

I'm terrified that the outcome is Biden over Bernie. It's my first election where I'm actually old enough to vote, and not being able to vote for Bernie is a bit of a scary thought. I want Bernie to win, man :viocry:

Afternoons usually, sometimes later on the weekends. I tend to just go through and do whatever to wind down after I get home from whatever. Really good way to relax honestly
Posted in Imagine being angry about vegetables.
Posted 5 years ago
My girlfriend's parents don't believe that anything that isn't meat is "real food". When I visited last year according to her they didn't want to eat a dinner I was offering to cook (it was steamed veggies with beefless tips and some asian sauces) for everyone because they thought it wasn't actual food. Following my visit her mom insulted my weight issues and used it as an excuse to bitch about me actually eating my veggies.

I'm really thin due to metabolism issues that is faster than I can possibly eat enough calories lol. I have super big issues about my body, and my choice in tighter pants is only because my legs are the thing I'm most proud of on my body. It just makes me feel better about my body
I do agree though, I will go onto amazon or aliexpress and see a lot of extremely thin models with thigh gaps bigger than their actual thighs wearing tight pants. It's,,, honestly really bad looking and makes me really sad for the girls
Although when it comes to bigger clothes, I don't think it's that bad for bigger girls. My partner has big big problems with weight and wears baggy hoodies to hide everything so she doesn't have to look at it or even have to think about it.

I'm in a long distance relationship, and haven't been able to see my partner in over 6 months, so I'm rather physically starved. I've never acted on this, but I get the urge to randomly kiss friends when I'm talking to them and it makes me feel disgusted in myself.
