Been there a time or two in stores that catered to the young, thin and trendy, where the "plus sized" 10s were cut small.

I have zero sense of humor when it comes to a man who would bully a middle class Woman teacher.

And yes that is a little sexist, I wish this so called man would pick on ONLY men who have lots of money and power like him...

But he would never do that, of course.

He is a fucking punk, is what he is

I don't know what made me think of it, but oh well. Get to Krispy Kreme and get your free sugar coated heartattack. I took my girl after school camp and she's still burning off the cheap energy.

knowing where he was weight wise, good for him

Serious... there are things that really should not be political. Weight loss (because a Republican does it) is not in my list of priorities of things to make fun off.

Maybe since I am once again struggling with weight. (Diabetes, the gift that keeps on giving... I am at the intractable weight stage... next comes the OH MY GOD can you keep any weight on you), this is really a non issue,

And I am going to expect somebody to alert on this since GASP, I KNOW, I am actually not joining in ,

he is donning a baseball uniform... (which might be the largest they make), and getting some exercise

Good on him. I do not make fun.

And there are a lot more things out there that actually gross me out. An overnight man about to get some exercise is not one of them. Sorry, if this is not in my category of gross.

So you know in my category are things like kids not getting food over the summer because they are out of school

Or the women working 3 jobs because of the economic policies in place.

I am sorry if at this point I really will not join in a lot of these things. Just called to it, becuase it is fat shaming.

And I do expect this to be alerted as well But that is how this site rolls.

This is tribalism and other-ism at it's finest.

These days we even have the neurology behind this.

It is all but necessary. But the neurology also explains the joy people get when something happens to somebody on the other side.

That neurology scares me for the potential misuse.
