MARIE CLAIRE BOYCOTT (Please Reblog)
Want to hit Marie Claire where it hurts? Join us in in the Marie Claire boycott.
Dove has already pulled their online ads from MC’s website. Next target: Paul Mitchell.
Take five minutes and call their customer service office that you want them to stop advertising in Marie Claire.
Be nice, say please: 1-800-793-8790.
Peace, Shannon FierceFatties.com
Marie Claire Facebook Rumble →
Take the fight to Marie Claire’s Facebook page. Like them (temporarily) and give them a piece of your mind.
Here’s a great example: I ask for an apology, Marie Claire gives me this link with the headline “Marie Claire Editor Apologizes for ‘Mike & Molly’ Attack Blog.” See if you can figure out what’s missing from the story…
now Marie Claire is whining about free speech.
icedteaandlemoncake:
oh. fucking. please.
you demonstrated the fact that you *have* free speech already. now deal with the fucking consequences.
People have no clue what the fuck “free speech” means any more. If a column in Marie Claire is free speech, then give me my fucking column because to quote Jerri Blank, I’ve got somethin’ to say!

The following is an excerpt. To read this whole thing, visit us at Fierce, Freethinking Fatties.
By now you’re aware of Maura Kelly and her boastful intolerance of all things fat.
There’s no need to beat a dead horse: she’s an ignorant fuckwad and deserves every ounce of contempt she inspired, and then some.
But before we drag out Maura’s past idiocy for a new round of flogging, I think it must...

Saving Huge —
If you love “Huge,” please create a video explaining why “Huge” matters to you. I will be posting mine tomorrow pending feedback from the stars of “Huge.”
Let ABC Family know why it is a mistake to cancel “Huge” and why you need a second season. More info tomorrow! Tell your friends!

Anonymous asked: Yeah so being at 600 pounds and at risk for a list of health problems, you don't have to lose weight to get rid of those problems?? Fuckin A, You are a GENIUS!

Anonymous asked: I honestly don't understand what you mean by "WEIGHT LOSS DOES NOT WORK". Yes, it can and does. Weight loss by starving yourself is obviously veeeery unhealthy. But sometimes, one wants to be at a healthy weight, which, for an overweight person, would mean losing weight by eating healthy portions sizes, exercising, etc. You cannot deny that being overweight or obese is unhealthy....
You guys on tumblr make me feel so old.

Again? No. If I had to do it over again, definitely. She had it coming the first time, but if I ever get the chance to debate her again, it will be strictly business. I just think that so many people wanted to say “Fuck you, MeMe Roth” that it was my duty to pass that message along to her. There’s not a thing I would do differently about that interview. I’m just happy it...

In high school, I wrote for the paper. I had a ton of activities on my Senior quotes thingie, but probably only attended 1/4 of them. I did theater at the all-girl school, Incarnate Word (best extra-curricular activity ever). I wrestled from freshman to partway through my junior year, until I got a speeding ticket and had to quit and get a job. I was highly involved in Lifeteen, a Catholic youth...

Why do you think the world has gotten as messed up...
One reason, pure and simple: greed.
Greed is why we’re dependent upon oil, which is why we meddle in the Middle East and why we exploit smaller, weaker countries and why most other countries don’t like us. Greed is why the economy got so big and why its destruction was so spectacular, as well as why the recovery is taking so long. Greed is why the Republican Party exists and they are,...

What is the best and worst thing about the town ...
St. Louis is a great city. Very family oriented, but plenty of stuff for grownups to do. We’ve got great restaurants and awesome entertainment (City Museum, anyone?). Plus there’s just a “feel” to the city that I adore.
But I think St. Louis suffers from a self-perception problem. We want to be like Chicago, but we’re just not, and that’s okay with me. I like...

Why Purple Matters
I keep seeing all these posts about why wearing purple is pointless and to go do something “real,” as though the only real activism involves kicking down doors and demanding rights.
Can we just take a step back for a minute and chill the fuck out?
Organizing a solidarity day takes nothing away from activism. Encouraging people to wear purple does not diminish the cause of equality...
“…Sarah Palin has made ignorance fashionable.
You struggle to name Supreme...”

Stupid is as Tea Party does.

I am so damn tired of being told I should be ashamed of having a degree from an Ivy League university, as though that makes me less of a “real”...

Consider this your official invitation to the Party of the Year.
Who: All 1.35 million fans of “Huge” who followed the show to its frustrating and incomplete end; fans of greater diversity on television; fans of heartfelt, meaningful shows that ultimately dodge the industry ax; and anyone who believes people should be treated with dignity and respect, regardless of what they look like.
