I hate that it’s so aggressive in creating links! Like, I deleted the period, BlueSky, why??

One approach I’ve seen that seems healthy to me is to consider it a down payment for reparations for the damage she’s doing you and those you care about. It doesn’t obligate you to anything, it doesn’t have to change your relationship. It’s a bigotry tax. Use it as you like.

I find a lot of stuff that I was okay with 30 some years ago is turning out to be actually awful 😭 Fatphobia had such a pervasive stranglehold on us all and was so normalized. It sucks because my impression is the writing craft itself is strong and there are strong racial justice themes.

Or we could NOT real people’s marginalized bodies as horror concepts, for once ☹️

I liked that True Blood had a range of bodies, just normal people getting turned.

I looked into it a while back when someone recommended, and it’s fatphobic AF ☹️
