possumoftheday:

Instead of a proper Possum of the Day, I wanted to make you guys pride icons! I’m aware that many of my followers are in the LGBT+ community (as am I), so I thought y’all might enjoy this as a celebration of pride month! Also, for the month of June, I will be changing to blog’s icon to reflect my identity! Happy Pride, everybody! (Free to use! No need to credit me.)

It is ok to set boundaries concerning negative weight talk or expressions of fat phobia in your presence. You are allowed to ask the people in your life to help you live in a fat positive space free of diet talk, weight loss talk, and body negativity. You are allowed to ask the people in your life to support your well-being.

If other people react with anger or try to play the victim when you set boundaries, they are acting poorly, not you. Setting and respecting boundaries are essential to building healthy relationships.
