GAINZZZ Thread: Slimming Down From a Mid-Fats to a Small-Fats

Screenshot (2230).png

You small-fats need to shut up and defer to the Medium Fats and Large Fats and Super Fats.

And everyone needs to defer to the InfiniFats.

And believe it or not, this is not a parody. This is real.

You might think that this is something that that poor unfortunate girl is just making up to make some sense out of her miserable life.

But in fact, as Not the Bee points out, she's actually basing this on the prior Fat Scholarship.

You can click that link to see the prior Fat Literature.

Not the Bee digests it:

Yes, this is a Marxist attempt to arrange people in hierarchies based on how fat they are. Just like a slightly melanated person can't criticize a very melanated person under Critical Race Theory, in Critical Fat Theory, a moderately obese person can't criticize an "infinifat" person.

The downside of forming likeminded communities is that you can continually purity-test the membership list and screen out anyone who questions the increasingly strident and even demented dogmas the increasingly "pure" group dreams up. Ultimately the morbidly obese reach the point of creating their own favored social hierarchy in which, get this, the morbidly obese sit at the top of the pyramid.

And when the morbidly obese sit at the top of the pyramid, they really sit at the top of the pyramid.

How convenient for them!

And then when they take these ideas "to market," the market outside of their hypercurated extremist single-issue cult group, they find the idea is rejected and ridiculed, and they feel bullied.

But I mean, seriously dudes, you're attempting to create a Quasi-Racial Supremacist Caste System based on obesity. The non-obese (and non-lunatic obese) have a right to not just object strenuously, but to mock you for you even attempting to subjugate other people based on the "virtue" of your obesity.

Honestly, this could have been avoided if these ideas had been market-tested outside the confines of the Fat Acceptance hugbox cult in their early conceptual phases.

So have any of you lost any of your Fat Authority Status? Any of you have any Fat Authority Rank LOSSEZZZ?

Any BOOKZZZ or MOVIEZZZ to recommend? Any PROJECTZZZ or PLANZZZ?

I finally licked my plantar fasciitis. In the end, it took the usual exercises, plus wearing my Asics Gel Nimbus 22s and the new pair of 23s. They have pretty decent arch support.

And putting Easy Feat arch support inserts into more of my shoes. Note on those: They have quite a high arch. You might not be ready for that. It might be uncomfortable and feel like you've got a stone in your shoe. But you get used to it, and it does relax the arches (for me).

And making sure I'm wearing something with arch supports, even when I'm just inside the house.

10 Movies....TJM is reviewing the films of Kobayashi Masaki. He's a really good director. I do suggest The Thick-Walled Room to start with. Interesting take on post-war war crimes.

I hesitate to recommend the Dr. Strange movie, but it's the best of the Phase 4 films...and that is damning with faint praise. It's about halfway to being a good Marvel movie, let down by the writing and story.

21 As far as BOOKZZZ go, I just finished Peter F. Hamilton's The Dreaming Void. The plot is fairly similar to the plot of Star Trek V (seriously). A religious movement springs up around one man's visions about what's going on in the center of the galaxy. Once thought to be simply a black hole, the Void is expanding, as it's now known to be a microuniverse protruding into ours. Various factions are either trying to make a Pilgrimage to the center of the galaxy or trying to stop it. Pretty wild science fiction exploring transhumanism among other concepts...

47 That foot PF thing I can never spell correctly will come back hard if you slack off for a good while then run or sprint. Just a few minutes sprint will do it and you'll be out of commission for a week again. 1 don't slack off 2 if you do be extra careful about easing into exercise again. The arch inserts will help with that though. Sometimes night time foot cramps will set it off too but exercise and water intake will help with that.

For BOOKZZZ I picked Mister Roberts by Thomas Heggen off the shelf.

We're all familiar with the movie starring Fonda, Lemmon, Powell and Cagney, which is more of a comedy. The book, however, even though it has it's comical moments, is much darker, emphasizing the boredom, routine and pettiness of a ship lost in the backwaters of the Pacific theater. Tempers flare, good friends suddenly can't stand one another, souls become numbed. It's a good read if you can find it.

My reaction when the book was over was two-fold, one that Gnosticism is still a plague after two thousand years and 2, the absolutely gobsmacking hubris of anyone even writing this type of book. A book not of allegory, but one that literally puts the authors words in the mouth of the creator of the Universe.

Yes, they are. And we should encourage this and all their other inane ideas until the whole edifice is crushed under the weight of its own stupidity. (We can’t wait until an infinifat rolls over on them.)

The story at least starts out interesting but is horribly written. I don't think there was a single memorable line of prose in the entire book. It was like the author was getting paid by the word too. Lots and lots of trite phrasing and expansive adjectives.

170 Open Letter to certain Uvalde area law enforcement officers.

Not all of you, but *most* of you fucked up, and fucked up badly. Because of this, an extreme body count of nineteen dead kids and two dead teachers was run up by the murderous scum, mostly by your allowance.

You were ordered to stand back, to stand down, you say? Bullshit. That's when you have *comms problems*, your *radio didn't work*, and you go in anyway. Your Sgt or the Lt tell you directly to not go in? That's when you cash in your career, tell him or her to fuck off, and go in, regardless. Kids were needlessly dying, the whole time you were "just following orders". That defense died at Nuringberg, and with it died every conceivable excuse you might offer.

My advice to you? Go find new L.E. jobs somewhere else in Texas. Texas offers plenty of "far away" for you, and you need to go far, far away. Even better, go to another State. Best? Get the fuck out of law enforcement, and take up pumping gas and wiping windshields. Sell your house, uproot your family, and just *go*.

You've lost all standing, honor and respect, anywhere Texan is spoken, forever.

If anyone wants to buy any of the Tom Stranger stories you only need to buy "#1 in Customer Service." It contains all the previous stories. And, as an added treat, the whole thing is performed by Adam Baldwin.

193 > You were ordered to stand back, to stand down, you say? Bullshit. That's when you have *comms problems*, your *radio didn't work*, and you go in anyway.

Here's my summary based on what I've heard so far.

Standard active shooter protocol is to go in, even if you don't have backup or anything. Barricaded suspect protocol means slow down, wait for backup, surround the place, bring in negotiators, etc.
I believe the local police chief heard his guys were shot at and the door was locked. He decided to call it a barricaded suspect because it gave him an excuse to take the safer protocol. This despite the fact that it didn't correctly describe the situation.
LEOs on scene deferred to this person because he's the local Chief of Police. His people went into obey orders mode and started treating it like a barricaded suspect situation. Keep people back, observe, report, make sure the suspect doesn't escape.
It took outside Federal agency people who were willing to disobey and question orders to overcome this institutional momentum.

225 I guess I'm alone here, but, about these mass shootings, maybe be more upset with the shooter(s) and not the cops.

There's endless hate about the cops right now and, after thoughtful and thorough investigation to understand everything about the event, "we" will be able to place appropriate blame on the deserving parties.

But, to be fair, there are innumerable factors that everyone should be considering before jumping to conclusions and sending entire departments on an ice floe. Policies, personnel, coincidental actions, and just terrible luck all played a part. Let's maybe consider that our information is lacking and that there are misconceptions or misinterpretations that are being injected into an emotional and political maelstrom right now.

Not giving a pass to law enforcement; just saying wait a bit and redirect blame on the real culprit, the effin' shooter.

265 154 ... and Correia is promising to do a sequel trilogy. My boy is loving Son of the Black Sword, but I couldn't get into it. I'm more of a Monster Hunter kinda guy.

Posted by: 29Victor at May 27, 2022 07:12 PM (BJKQV)


I too loved the Monster Hunter International books.

Great news about him writing a second trilogy in the Grimnoir series - I'll happily buy those when they come out!

I had some trouble getting through "Servants of War" (the one he co-wrote with Steve Diamond.) The book is very well written, and the story is compelling, but there was an ever-present dark fatalistic outlook that made it a tough read for me. It's a coin-toss if I'll pick up the next book in the series if/when it gets written.

273 "250 What is making people overweight?
Posted by: humphreyrobot at May 27, 2022 07:37 PM (WpsQY) "

honest answer, my opinion, worth what it costs:
humans have throughout history, lived nasty, brutish, & short lives characterized by SCARCITY. we have nothing, zip, in our makeup, either physical or psychological, that knows about how to deal with abundance.
thus, behavior that evolved to meet "eat what you can get today because tomorrow there might be nothing" runs up against an endless supply of oreos, doritos, and artificial grape soda.

284 191 29Victor, interesting take on "The Shack". I read it as an introduction for some to even acknowledge G-D. The growth comes after the acceptance.
Posted by: Ben Had at May 27, 2022 07:24 PM (EjlyM)

But God is not a thing to be "acknowledged." He's an individual to be known. Starting people off with a false view of a being with whom they are to form an intimate relationship is a really bad idea. And the desire to make God "palatable" is in essence stating that He, as He truly is, is not adequate to attract people to Him.

290 Really enjoyed Larry Correia's opening book for a new series, Servants of War. I was wary, because it was a collaboration, but it really stuck with me. It might be my favorite Correia after Grimnoir. Can't wait for more books in this series.

I'm going to dissent from the claim that the MHI series has gone downhill. I enjoyed Legion, and found Nemesis and Siege to be a whole new level of great, and almost on a par with Grimnoir.

292 Lost 35 lbs from about Dec to March. Got a dexa scan this week to check body composition - puts it at 12%. By far the lowest of my adult life by at least 5 percent (about 15 lbs). First time I ever had a 6 pack. Never going back again.

Biked 20 miles this morning in the Phoenix heat. Lovely. I feel empty if I can't get some kind of exercise in the day
