hi i'm an anorexic and i'm sick and tired of people telling me that eating junk food "isn't healthy" like um. bitch. in case you haven't noticed i'm 164 cm tall and weigh abt 43 kg (not to mention i've been gaining weight, i was dangerously low at one point), so just be glad i'm eating at all?

i'm trying my best. everyone with an eating disorder is.

in conclusion:

don't poke fun at or criticize the food choices of those with eating disorders. be glad they're eating. feel free to offer them healthy snacks in a KIND way or nicely guide them in the right direction. but don't criticize, it just makes it worse. be their support, not their worst critic.

edit, 6 months later: i'm like 49 kg now and i grew 1 cm and i feel so much happier and i am eating three good meals a day (snacking here and there, too). yeah maybe eating a family sized bag of doritos wasn't ideal but it got FOOD in me, and it got my body used to needing food and made me...wait for it...hungry! so i actually felt urges to EAT and EAT RIGHT! i ran a 5k for charity recently and if school allowed i would do many more. i work out a lot and i have abs (not suuuper defined, but they're there and i look a heck of a lot better now that u can't see my rib cage jutting out of my skin like some rotting skeleton) and i've been pretty positive lately! i was recently hospitalized for a health issue but it was resolved super quickly compared to normal (IDK, maybe bc i'm healthy??? :000) and HEY! GUESS WHAT YA ASSHATS?? i'm way happier than i've been in my life! but i couldn't have done it without tricking my body into wanting to be healthy! and i can safely say i got here BY MYSELF! 'twas nobody but ME who kicked my ass to get me on the right track, damn it! i got no one to thank! just a whole lotta "fuck you"s to give to people who think they know someone else's body better than they know it themselves!!! :))

I have never in my life yelled at a girl like this. When my mother yells like this it's because she loves me. I was rooting for you, we were all rooting for you! How dare you! Learn something from this! When you go to bed at night, you lay there and you take responsibility for yourself - because nobody's going to take responsibility for you. You're rolling your eyes and you act like it's because you've heard it all before - you've heard it all before - you don't know where the hell I come from, You have no idea what I've been through, but I'm not a victim; I grow from it and I learn. Take responsibility for yourself!

this pic just reminded me of that one iconic tyra scene lol

I wasn't going to actually do this but I had free time so I was like 'why not?'. So for the Change...

I wasn't going to actually do this but I had free time so I was like 'why not?'. So for the Change My Mind Challenge I'm gonna talk about Aya Maruyama.

Before the game came out in en I did research on the game and its characters (only their names so I wouldn't spoil myself) so I'd know what I was getting into. The first time I saw Aya was during this time and I thought she'd be one of those super happy go lucky leaders who could only show happiness and was friends with everyone.

So queue to me actually getting the game and playing it. When the loading screen came up and I read Aya's description it blew my mind. She was extremely relatable to me just from reading it especially where it says,

"Aya admires idols and entered the entertainment industry as a probationary idol in the hopes of becoming one; however, she is easily nervous and cries easily when things go wrong and she's overwhelmed by her emotions. She has stage fright and so she has weak improvisation, so she has yet to achieve a breakthrough."

Now by this point she still wasn't my favorite but she was very high up in my list of characters I might like. So I started getting band stories after about 30 minutes of playing and at some moment of time I got to the PasuPare one. The story itself was amazing but the cherry on top was getting to see the personalities of the girls and how they started off.

Seeing how Aya acted was what really made me love her along with her design. Aya has a huge love for idols and wanted to be one for a long time so she did training. When she finally did get to be in a idol group, she had to fake it and she hated it. Not only that but she also had her fears holding her back but even so she fought against those fears not only for herself but for her band's success.

Plus Aya's design (to me) could be a play on how most times the leader (who usually has pink as their main color {ex.Honoka from LL!}) in idol/overall groups tend to be confident, outgoing, overall happy go lucky, and not have many flaws. But when you see her real personality you learn that she isn't any of those things. She's clumsy, has stage fright, and gets overwhelmed easily but even so tries her hardest to be good idol for her friends and herself.

Basically Aya has many flaws that gets in the way of her wish to be a idol but tries her hardest to get past them to help others and is an amazing character past her looks.

Me, seeing wholesome posts of people saying how much they love their favorite band or character: awww you go, give them the love they deserve!

Also me, seeing people saying how much they love their favorite band or character by bashing on another band or character: why do you gotta spoil everyone's fun like this?

I am not all that big of a fan of Pastel*Palettes' music or band members, but I definitely find their band stories the most interesting so far. I mean, I am always excited about how things are going to turn out in the next chapter, as the stakes seem highest for them. It's tough being a pro, I suppose.
