“Diets do not work. Not just paleo or Atkins or Weight Watchers or Goop, but all diets.

Fatsplaining at its finest. I don’t give a fuck when someone chooses to not be healthy, but don’t sit there and make bullshit excuses and blame anything other than yourself and your lack of self control. Take responsibility and own up to it, you’re not fooling anyone.

Soft on Soft by Em Ali (which I received as an ARC with a different title, #FatGirlsInLove, that appears to be a working title) is an entirely unique story.

Wow.Â
Faith has her own title! It’s super cute! Also you should buy it if you can, because supporting positive plus size rep shows publishers that there’s a market for diversity.
Julian Dennison is out here preaching about the importance of body diversity and representation in the media and I’m honestly so here for it.Â
“Deadpool is a quirky universe, which is all about being outside of the box, unlike a normal superhero film,” he says, adding that he’s always been confident and comfortable with his body image. “For me, personally, it’s really cool to play someone who other people can finally look at it and see that a bigger person can portray this awesome character.” [x]
