the tldr takeaway is: dear authors, creators, and so on...
if you're including fat people only to use fatness as visual shorthand for "bad person", just don't write them in.
i would rather watch a thousand things with only skinny people in it than suffer through another jackass's unexamined fatphobia.
if you were planning to do this, consider: don't. and consider: don't not just include that character, but don't fucking CREATE. don't speak a word until you sort your pathetic shit out.
yes, i am absolutely telling you to go take your computer and your phone and your pen and paper and put them all in a pile and douse them in kerosene! it is what you deserve! i do not care how many novels or comics you have finished: if you are that much of a lazy hack, THE ENTIRE WORLD IS DEMONSTRABLY WORSE WITH YOUR INPUT IN IT.
just.
fucking.
shut the fuck up.
because somehow, this keeps happening, in the year of our lord twenty fucking twenty, and i am fucking over it.
