…. So The essay rough draft is due tomorrow morning at 8 am, I have to research this and come up with good sources, all of which I had done and I was writing this essay…
Aaaannnnnnnddddd I deleted everything threw out all of the research I did and I'm doing a different topic. I mean the professor said It could be a rough draft but this is going to be rough, like this is a Freshly cut cube of wood, it hasn't even been sketched on, not carved into at all.

@Relsey-TheElder

We did peer reviews on the rough draft of essays and I'm to tired to filter so I just went off on this poor dude. Like Oh man, Poor guy. He was being racist in his argument so like I don't feel that bad but like, I said
" You could have talked about how Plagiarism runs rampant on the app, or how it takes advantage of creators, but you just keep kicking the cat of the same argument over and over again, the cats dead you don't have to continue to kick it"
And ugh, yeah, that's not even all of it, I went off on this poor guy.

@Space group

I don't know if I told everyone this yet but the SMP that I was working on went…. downhill.
One of the co-owners that helped with tech and the set up decided it would be fun to blow everything up, delete the planning doc, and blacklist me from the server.
I was on heavy depression meds at the time so I just shut down and was blank, I couldn't even cry although I wanted to. I worked hard but eh its fineee

Explain to me why I just found a badly drawn Sauron using the One Ring as a hula hoop

Well I have no clue. It was a tattoo of the tree of gondor with a ring of elvish around it. But Sauron hula hooping is also an option apparently

Please share

Eh. Racists got it coming. I try to be nice to them sometimes, but good for you.

Let's normalize some things. Is that okay?
I've been seeing a lot of body insecurity on the forums recently. And I'm gonna say some facts. Note: I am by no means a doctor and I'm not your doctor. I do not know your body like you do. If you are concerned about yourself and your habits, please consult a licensed physician. This is just to raise awareness, and to give facts about the human body that are often misconstrewed due to the influence of social media and family and peer pressure. Thanks you.
Let's continue.
The average male is 197.9 pounds. And a size 40.2. And. this. Is. The. Average.
The average female is 170.6 pounds. And a size 14-16 (38.6 inches) And. This. Is. Average.
Guess what? Clothes are made to fit the sterotypes on social media! Like size 30 to 34 to men, and size 0 to 2 for women! And it varies from store to store. For example a size 12 in women's could be either a size 10 or a size 14 depending on the store. It's jacked up. Just don't look at size. Find things that fit you and that you feel comfortable in.
(Note Healthline.com only had 2 gender norms. They are in the process of adding more. This is Cis Male and Female, but based on the margins of error, all genders fall in between 160 to 200 pounds and 38 to 42 inches)
Social media has influenced children, teens, young adults, and adults into thinking they aren't healthy, and that they are obese, when in actuality, they are perfectly healthy. Males thing they have to have washboard abs, and a perfect body. Females think they have to be curvy and thin. That is not the case. Being skinny and thin and being sickly skinny and thin are two different things. It all depends on the metabolism of the person. Some people are just naturally thin. They have the metabolism of a jackrabbit. While other have the metabolism of a bear. Please don't starve yourself to get an image of a model or an influencer off the internet. That does you more harm than good. Their photos are retouched and edited to make them look flawless. Eat when your body says to eat. Listen to your body. It's trying to keep you breathing and it's doing a great job at it. Reward it with love, and don't abuse it with starvation and deprivation. Now onto the people who are average. I'm female. 5' 1" I'm a size 14. I weight 185 pounds. That is normal. (I'm actually a little bit over average, but that's okay!) I've played sports all my life and I have muscle buildup. Guess what? All of you people do too. And muscle weighs more than fat. It's okay to be average. It's okay to realize that you aren't edited and that you're a real person. And guess what bodies are bodies. They are made to protect your internal organs. They are made to bend and roll and fold. Back rolls and tummy rolls are normal everyone has them. And Females, that little pooch right under your stomach? That's your reproductive organs. You can't get rid of it. It's not going anywhere. And now for people who are a little above average. Guess what? You're normal too! You're a human. Your body is doing what it needs. Listen to it. Don't try to starve yourself or try diets or things you found on the internet in order to get instant results. If you're concerned about it, do not turn to the Internet. Talk to a nutritionist, or a professional physician. But do not let other people tell you what you should and shouldn't look like, feel like, wear, act, or eat. You're your own person, and you knos your body better than anyone.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk, and feel free to add more facts, and gender norms! Everything is appreciated. I just want people who are struggling know they aren't alone. Because I've been there. I still am. But you know what? That's okay.

@tungsten fastfood

Yeah lmao I was told I'm overweight by my doctor even though I'm 5'7, 180 something and exercise a lot.
It comes from doctors too because they all use the same measurements, so be careful
