had a run-in with the potato peeler this week and ended up at urgent care.
can someone give me the evidence-based rationale for not only weighing me when i came in for a fingernail avulsion but then PUTTING MY WEIGHT AND BMI ON THE AFTERCARE PACKET??
think of patients with EDs
i think the “big back” memes bother me so much because i KNOW if i was a child now kids would mock me by calling me big back so i know there are probably a ton of fat kids out their getting ridiculed because for some reason fat jokes have not fallen out of style
realizing how much of the fitness and wellness space is saturated with anti-fat rhetoric to prey on your insecurities sure makes it hard to engage with them thoughtfully
fat people deserve access to quality healthcare :) fat people deserve to have their medical concerns acknowledged without being confronted with anti-fat bias :) fat people deserve to live in their fat bodies :)
