Telling people that obesity isn't unhealthy is like telling them that smoking isn't unhealthy.

Sure, you may make them feel better in the short term. But you're also lying to their face, and causing actual harm if they make the mistake of believing you.

Doesn't mean that people should be going around mocking people for their weight - plenty of people develop physical health problems in response to mental health problems, and with the way society has been for decades, lots of people clearly have just given up.

"healthy at every size" is a _lie_.

Someone who is underweight is _inherently unhealthy_; some of my friends had health emergencies because they had disorders relating to appearance and didn't eat enough as a result. Someone who is drastically overweight is _inherently unhealthy_; every single organ in the body is being strained to the breaking point.

> advocates practicing healthy behaviors in the body you have, rather than placing weight loss at the center of treatment.

That's nonsense; if you weight 400 lbs, and you are truly practicing healthy behaviors, you _will_ lose weight. Maintaining that weight requires a degree of consumption that is, _in itself_, unhealthy, because it means the digestive system / metabolism is processing loads it _cannot handle_ without breaking down.

This sort of toxic positivity is so infuriating. Some things _really are bad_. Pretending they're not _hurts people_. It _kills_ people.

Some lifestyles are less healthy than others. It doesn't do anyone good to pretend otherwise.

@0x10f I hate that the word stands for porn.

At this point just using *any* Microsoft product, let alone Windows, is inherently a security risk.

Windows 10 dies Oct 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy new hardware. But if your PC’s from after 2010, it’s not obsolete — just held back. If you install Linux there are no license fees, no forced upgrades, no ads and spyware. You can find help at the https://endof10.org/

Current thoughts on #DonkeyKongBananza… it’s grown on me a lot. The controls and mechanics are excellent, the worlds are all fun and well designed, and the atmosphere is top notch throughout.

If you liked Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong 64, Banjo-Kazooie or Super Mario Odyssey, you’ll love this game.
