I’m not the kind of person who will ever be satisfied.
I’m always going to want more
or less
or something completely different.
I’m never going to settle.
I’m learning to accept all this about myself.
but at least i’ll always be experiencing something new, learning something new, somewhere new.

"Real women have curves” was a marketing slogan thought up to sell people overpriced, ill-fitting pants. It does NOT promote body positivity – it only perpetuates body policing by turning the tables on people who don’t fit into yet another arbitrary ideal.
The job is to BUST THE FUCKING PARADIGM APART, not shift it a little bit toward the fat side. The job is to remind people, bodies are not public property and your opinion about an individual’s body is only an opinion, not a valid judgment of their worth as a human being. The JOB is to destroy systemic oppression of nonconforming, rebellious bodies no matter what those bodies look like."
