Gluttony and sloth from a deadly sins to dysmorphia. If I want to watch fat mammals dance, rather watching the dancing hippos from "Fantasia".

This endless victim culture is pissing me off. Driven by women who get likes by whining on Twitter etc with glasses on.

The movie “Wall-E” featured a fat heroic passenger of the starship. That movie was a commentary on when humans have everything handed to them they atroph physically and spiritually. Sounds like something subject to cancelation today for not affirming sloth.

I remember school in the 70’s and 80’s where there was always the one fat kid. Now there is always the one skinny kid

It’s nothing if it doesn’t appeal to emotion and create a victim status.

Look for a serious exercise in gaslighting on this one. I sense an Academy Award in the offing...

Even Disney knows this would not sell so fat dancing girl was a short. In other words, a pure vanity project.

Wonderful! So when do we look forward to the first president who is fat, ugly, lez, trans, furry, Spanish speaking, POC, atheist, autistic with a peanut allergy?

Critical fat theory goes mainstream.

It was only a matter of time.

Some days I swear that my M I L thinks our house is the Wall-E cruise ship. She’s got the LazyBoy max. Can’t get out of the chair when the cat unplugs it. Forty minutes one time, nearly peed herself. That aint happening.

Voiced by Lizzo I hope.
Because she’s amazingly fat.
Good thing she’s rich because I’m sure there are
several square yards of her that she can’t clean
by herself.

If she were inclined to clean them. At all.

There’s a reason Disney’s share price has been cut in half in the last year.
