I need to write a book

I need to write a book about my past seven weeks at fat camp. I came here, fundamentally opposed to the existence of this institution. I leave here, knowing that I have never felt more safe and supported as a disabled fat person ever before in my life before coming here as I have these past seven weeks. I leave here, fundamen...

Happy Disability Pride

To everyone whose symptoms were ignored

To everyone who spends nights on Google, because those symptoms present differently on a body like yours

To everyone whose body enters the room before they do

Because the number on the scale matters more to the gate keepers of care than the pain you live with every da...

I love fat people (fat camp musings)

Every day I'm here, the more deeply I feel committed to the fight for fat liberation. I talk to folks here every day about the shame they feel in their bodies, and the life experiences that got them to that point, and all I can do is dream of a different world. And that is the world I fight for, and will continue to fight for...

I can't tell you what the shoot is for bc I signed an NDA hehe

Healing pause

I'm existing in liminal space, trying to heal my body from years of medical neglect. I've been forced to forgo my beliefs and praxis. Of course I've never been against prescribed diets for disabilities, or inpatient medical care, but when it's me and the diet is keto and the care is being given at a fat camp, it's messy. I ha...

1989 Ursula, a love story

This is not a critique, this is a dream. A dream that the body I saw Ursula in in Disney's The Little Mermaid (1989) at age 4 would be brought to life this past weekend in 2023. I knew it was a pipe dream. Melissa McCarthy is not the actor I would hire to proudly jiggle her fat on screen. She did her job. She was evil, leaned...

What do I do with my arms? (Modeling 101)

It's common to feel confused about what to do with your limbs when modeling, or even just posing for a photo with friends. I like to think about points of contact to ground your hands! If posing with a friend, put a hand on their shoulder! If posing alone, where are all of the points on your body you might naturally land a ha...

I might get a diagnosis this week

Two years of undiagnosed chronic pain and illness have taught me one thing. Health (by choice or genetic lottery), like thinness, does not make you a better person than an unhealthy or disabled person. If you live long enough, you will become disabled and unhealthy. You think you can stave that off because you have convinced...

Fat Hack (Doctors Office Edition)

* Set boundaries your practitioner at the beginning of the appointment -- what words do you want them to use, do you want to know your weight, tell them what size blood pressure cuff to use, what seating is most comfortable for you, where to draw your blood from.

* Write down your symptoms and how they are impacting you...

Lesbian Day of Visibility

I have officially been a lesbian for more of my life than not. I first wrote, in a blank journal that I immediately shoved down the trash compacted (very wasteful), "I think I'm a lesbian" in 2009. I've been thinking a lot about my queer childhood -- from second grade, declaring to my lesbian teacher that Lydia and I were goi...
