I should write an essay or something about why diet culture is so incredibly rotten. So that I have an easy reference when the topic comes up online
December 28, 2025 at 2:25 AM
To be clear

Not just “fuck extreme diets” not just “fuck idolizing disordered eating”

The thin ideal is horrible from the start. Diet culture is rotten to the core. You should have no part in it. Not Weight Watchers, not Atkins, not keto. None of it. Fuck it all
Fuck the thin ideal fuck BMI and fuck diet culture

It won’t be enough to stop Trump and vote Democrats back into power. We need a vision for the future of liberal democracy in this country. And that’s exactly what we aim to provide gofund.me/226f542e4

"While President Donald Trump’s peace plan appears to be holding, albeit with regular Israeli airstrikes, the crisis endures."

That is one hell of a load-bearing "albeit."

Childhood is not knowing how to use colons and semicolons. Adulthood is using them too much
Reading over my own stuff with fresh eyes and realizing I *love* colons. My god. This is either obnoxious, or a distinctive part of my writing style, or both.

I put out the ask, then chickened out about 6 hours later (nobody was ignoring me per se, the discord is usually quiet). Reading a book got me all up in my head about the quality of my writing. Which is ofc WHY I’m asking for help but
Remembering that my church has a writers' group. Considering to share it there

On the one hand, it's a writers' group full of *people I trust and care about.* On the other hand, it's a *writers' group* full of people I trust and care about. Hard call
Okay, here it is. The first chapter of the first piece of fiction I've wrote in quite a while. Working title: "Cedar"

Everything I post about writing fiction gets me a ton of likes from people who don’t follow me. Ig there are a lot of people searching that word??? Or some popular writers feed

It’s a little unexpected

I wonder how long it’ll take to go from “oh my god suicidal people are using llms to talk about it” to “I’m glad we have llms to help suicidal people on demand in a way that’s more accessible and comfortable for them”

If we’ll ever get to that point

It makes me a little less stressed to put my writing on ao3 because people really just be writing anything and posting it there

Writing this is a bit therapeutic for me, which is not how writing usually works to my knowledge. So that's nice I guess.

Working on chapter 2 of my Cedar story now.

I'm kind of proud of myself for writing something new and different, and putting it out into the world

When I started I was like "oh my god fiction is hard how is this even possible" and I've slowly figured it out
