I have an idea for a new series, but I need help. Other than "Diet Culture," what other fat liberation / fat acceptance songs are there? I think there's at least two more, but I can't remember the name of them. If I can find 3 more songs, I can really do what I want with the mini-series and put my BA to use, lol.

Thank you all who pointed out the missing audio in my most recent video. I'm going to fix it later today, but I have some stuff I have to do first. The corrected version should be up later tonight or early tomorrow.

This is an anti-FA channel, but there have been a couple of things that came across my radar and I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in seeing them on this channel, or if this would be better for my other channel.
Video 1: I just got the informational packet of people running for different positions in my state government. These people range from competent looking candidates - to people with way too much self confidence for their severe lack of understand of how state government works - to those that can't spell worth shit - to the straight up loony tunes. My favorite is the guy that referred to the people he wants to vote for him as "slaves and happy cows." I wouldn't go over all of it mostly those that are too confident or the loonies. I think it's around 6 candidates. Maybe 10.
Video 2: I've noticed unschooling coming up in some videos. It seems to be a tiktok trend right now with moms. I see a lot of people demonizing it. I was unschooled from 3rd grade until college and personally have gripes with both the unschooling moms and those criticizing them. It could be a one off, it could also become a once-every-six-months sort of video.
Any interest? I'm making them regardless, I'm just figuring out which channel to put them on.

To the people two streets over: Okay look, I get it. It's the 4th of July, you want to set off fireworks. Fine. I don't like it, but I'll deal. It's illegal in my city, but I don't necessarily want to get the police involved. However, there is NO FUCKING REASON YOUR FIREWORKS SHOULD SHAKE MY WINDOWS! FFS I fucking cut myself because I was cutting up some fruit, your fireworks startled me so bad. That scared the shit out of me. My dog is scared (thankfully I just gave her some anti-anxiety meds for this reason). There's a veteran who puts out a sign every year begging people to not set off fireworks in the neighborhood, yet you insist on getting the loudest fireworks available. Fuck you. I hope your car doesn't start tomorrow, a coyote shits in your yard, and crows harass you whenever you step a foot outside your house. You are a menace and deserve a hefty fine.

Well .... sometimes I do very stupid things. I thought I had finished editing this week's video and processed it. I was cleaning out my computer because I had like 400gb of old videos and I wanted to make some space. I deleted the raw recording only to discover AFTER I emptied the recycling bin that I had not processed the video. I'm so sorry guys. No video this week. I'll re-record MP part 2 and a new video for you next week.

Okay, so....I like to look at FatFabFeminist's tiktok from time to time because she makes points that I often think are worth exploration. A lot of the time I disagree with her, maybe even most of the time. However, most of her tiktoks touch on topics that I think are interesting and worth talking about. About a month ago she posted a series of tiktoks on growing up fat and feeling dogpiled on by the internet. She really framed it in such a way though, that I wanted to make sure I approached it with care because some of it seemed deeply personal to her. I was going to watch them again and take some notes so the video was a little more structured and delicately phrased.
However, I just looked on her tiktok and it seems like almost of year of tiktoks have been removed and she's gone essentially radio silent. Does anyone know if anything specific happened? It may just be that she wanted a break, but I thought it was odd.

Hello all! My summer vacation starts on the 25th. Apart from interviews, I mostly plan on doing a deep clean of my house and crafting a lot. I need recs for shows to watch or audiobooks to listen to while I clean and craft. Any suggestions?
I'm open trying most things. The only thing I can't handle is graphic depictions child/animal abuse. Other than that though, I've enjoyed all sorts of stories in different genres and with different levels of sexual/violent content. Please let me know of any recent shows/books you've enjoyed!

I was watching the newest ObesetoBeast video and he mentioned that Jordan''s tiktok was gone. Since I'm covering Unsolicited this week, I wanted to check that out. Not only is Jordan's Tiktok gone, but all of the YT content is gone too. Anyone know what happened? Jordan wasn't someone I really kept up with, so I'm wondering if there was a catalyst or not.

I'd like to put a big thank you out there in the universe to Anthony Alfred Walter Long and John Herbert Charles Nayler, the inventors of the semi-synthetic antibiotic Amoxicillin. It's helped me more times than I can count now. I can't tell you how wonderful it feels for my face to not hurt, my throat to not feel like something is stabbing me when I swallow, and my heart rate finally returning to something resembling normal (no more racing heart, no more dizziness.) As a bonus, my voice has somewhat returned, so by Sunday I should be able to record something and I'm so excited.
Not being able to do anything for the past week has driven me up the wall. I can't wait to get back to my hobbies and recording videos! Hope everyone is having a good week and I should be getting to my long neglected comments soon!

Okay, so a couple of things to note.
1. I have a REALLY bad case of the flu. I've been sick since Thursday and I thought I would be fine to record today, but I'm still really wiped. There probably won't be a post this week. Instead, I'm working off and on on the Google Slides for the Hierarchy of Disagreement video, when I have a bit of energy.
2. Looking through Tiktok creators that I've covered in the past I'm realizing something. Yes, they had a lot of ad hominem attacks, but they primarily respond to comments that are insulting them and not the ones with actual points being made. So, it's less ad hominem and more like two teenagers insulting each other back and forth. Especially when looking at tiktoks made this year. It's almost all responses to comments calling them ugly or some variation of that.
I'm hoping to be able to record two videos next weekend to make of for the lack of videos this coming week. Hope y'all are having a good weekend!
