Someone on my course wouldn’t stop talking about weight loss so I just had a full-on emotional meltdown in front of my class with TEARS and everything. SO AWKWARD.

It’s cold. Like, really properly bracingly sea-air cold. You can wrap up as warm as you like but there’s not a lot you can do about the cold on your face. It forces itself to be felt and it demands your attention, taking your thoughts away for a short time from the crushing emptiness of existence.
The winter sun. During the day it reflects off the sea with the light of a million...

Okay so the movement for body acceptance is quite substantial but what I’d really like to see is face acceptance. I feel like the only good faces are symmetrical, clear-skinned, big-eyed, button-nosed, high-cheekboned white faces and that even though I like my face no one else ever will. Even body acceptance posts show pictures of people with really conventional faces. Can we just promote...
