I think her bizarre appearance is the only reason she gets booked. She's considered mildly amusing by whoever books her show because she says almost chuckle-worthy things while looking like a monster from a campy horror-comedy movie. She offsets the usual male comedians by being female and contrasts with any other female comedians because...well, look at her.
Is there a thread discussing the absolute insane fandom around Heated Rivalry? Poor Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie have legions of obese women and fujos engaged in bloody combat as to whether or not they're actually gay.
Might I invite you over to the Omegaverse, Yaoi and MPreg fandom discussion thread? As dreadful as the name sounds, there's been some discussion about HR over there. (To my knowledge, HR does not have its own dedicated thread, so this is the next best thing.)
A woman like Kristin need not be a comedienne when her entire appearance tells jokes before her mouth can even open.
If this was an occasional thing, like you're on vacation and say, "fuck it" then okay. Part of the fun of going to places like Disney is trying new foods. Then you go back home, eat sensibly and maybe do a bit more cardio. But not when it's practically an every day thing for these people.
He's also much worse: a pedophile and a rapist. His character was cleaned up quite a bit for the movie.
The core tenet of FA is that it is not possible to lose weight. If they see someone else losing weight, a crab escaping the bucket, this tenet is disproven. This raises some awkward questions about the grievance and victimhood narrative, which threatens their self-esteem. If that person can lose weight, why can't you? Therefore, the crab must be dragged back into the bucket to avoid such uncomfortable thoughts, or denigrated and symbolically excommunicated if the crab does manage to escape. It's about keeping up the grievance and victimhood narrative in the name of protecting their self-esteem.
lol, the irony. Weight loss is one of those things that is simple (lower energy intake) but not easy (humans and all animals are powerfully driven to eat because to not do so when you can means you might die in lean times.) it’s not pseudoscience but HAES certainly is.
"I was stho fat n nasthty, I would eat anything!" lololol
I am not that into weight loss science so take this with a grain of salt but as far as I know the starvation response thing refers to a phenomenon where if you suddenly start consuming too little food from one moment to the other the body will think you're starving and will try to save calories. It makes sense from an evolutionary perspective and would explain why ops crash diets instead of healthy weight loss didn't work. People in concentration camps and whatnot just starved more than someone on a crash diet and burned through it.
That's what I was referring to with there being some actual points in there. There's things like mentioning how eating godawful food then cracking isn't sustainable weight loss making it seem like OP actually tried but then you're hit with insanity like your body type being permanently "set" from your upbringing and the shit about cows and bears. I'm not sure how many people actually checked out the full post in the spoiler but I'm begging people to read the bit about cows and bears.
When some 300lb purple hair goes into a calorie deficit the body has a hundred thousand calories or so to burn in fat stores before it goes into any sort of "starvation mode" -- which is cannibalizing muscle tissue and other critical areas of the body in order to survive. Metabolism naturally slows with weight loss. A 100lb gorl's metabolism might burn 1.2K calories a day. A deathfat's easily over 3K. Deathfats think that a slowed metabolism from weight loss is unhealthy and leads to yo yo dieting. It really has nothing to do with it, and mostly is due to emotional eating and hyper palatable food like fried starches and fatty meats and candy being so abundant in the West.
It really is just "Anorexics, holocaust victims and 2000s beauty standards exist, therefore I can't be obese". Really just forcibly swinging the pendulum to the other side, using one extreme to justify your extreme instead of looking for the middle.
