So my mom and I have been working the same waitress job for 5-6 years now. She had been waitressing years before, but this is recently. Anyway, about… 15 minutes ago this guy she waited on left and told her to take care. Just that. Prior to this she had talked to him about Italy. Her people are from Florence, this and that, and she said she’s never been. She’s got 8 years of art education and she’s working a waitress job. It’s pretty… Sad and disappointing, I guess. Her and my father divorced 6 years ago and she hasn’t had a real job ever. Just been stuck in a small town she’s not from.

This man who we have never seen before tipped her 1000 dollars for a trip to Italy. Walked out, not another word.

…you know. Just when I start to lose faith in humanity….Hm.

You know, the one that gives housewives/full-time mothers a pension— wages for housework?

It’s ONLY A HUGE VICTORY FOR FEMINISM, SOCIALISM, AND WOMEN OF COLOR. Not a big deal or anything. Tumblr is mysteriously silent about this.

Florida teen Kaitlyn Hunt, 18, is seeing her young life turned upside down and her future jeopardized simply because she fell in love. Unfortunately for her, she fell in love with a younger girl who has vindictive bigots for parents.

Florida teen Kaitlyn Hunt, 18, is seeing her young life turned upside down and her future jeopardized simply because she fell in love. Unfortunately for her, she fell in love with a younger girl who has vindictive bigots for parents.:

wilwheaton:

She was kicked off the basketball team because of the potential for “drama” her presence created. She’s been vilified by fellow students, called “criminal,” “rapist” and “child abuser.” She was expelled from school. And far worse. She’s facing a lifetime label of “sex-offender,” because the other girl’s parents brought criminal charges against her despite the fact that the relationship was consensual. What’s more, according to Hunt’s parents, Hunt was 17 when the relationship began, but the other girl’s parents waited until after she turned 18 to go to police.

Unbelievably, prosecutors have decided to press the criminal charge.

Emphasis mine.

So the prosecutor’s office in Sebastian River, Florida thinks this is a worthwhile use of taxpayer money and the court’s time.

Fuck everything about this.

An Open Letter from her Father

Donate Money for Her Legal Battle

Sign a Petition to Stop the Prosecution

I don’t currently have a steady income, but I still donated what I could to help pay for her defense. This is a horrible abuse of the legal system and the police should be ashamed of themselves for not taking into consideration that the girls are peers and neither has made any claims that the relationship wasn’t consensual. This girl is about to have her life ruined because of bigotry manipulating and motivating the legal system.

This is the intro and ending of the very first workout video I had as a child - Dance! Workout with Barbie. So much weird nostalgia.

Also, the girl named “Love” (on the light blue leggings) is Jennifer Love Hewitt. She always stood out to me because I thought she had a weird name.

I want to take a moment to address something that I feel very strongly about. Now that summer is within arms reach, people are going to start attempting to achieve that bikini body. You know what that means! Crash diets, cardio over-load, and restriction. Yeah, well, I’m not ok with that.

Every time I go to the store I see all these products: “LOW CALORIE” “100 CALORIE PACK!” “LOW FAT”, the list goes on. I am going to say something that may blow your mind: nutritional factors matter way more than calorie amount. Just because something say “low calorie” does not translate to healthy.

I hear it so often: “Oh, I love these and I can have them because they’re only 100 calories.” Ok, yes. They may be. But, nutritionally, they’re usually garbage. Calories are important, yes, but why don’t people pay more attention to fat, protein, carbs, sodium, fiber, and cholesterol? Those things tell you so much more about what food consists of than the calories.

People who are dieting often freak out about high calorie foods, but some of the best foods for you have higher calories! Take one of my favorite protein sources, for example: Chicken! 4 oz of baked chicken breast (boneless, skinless) is around 180 calories. That may seem kind-of high calorie-wise, but it is a great source of lean protein, around 36 grams worth!

Let’s do another example, 2 tablespoons of all-natural peanut butter (without salt): 188 calories. Also pretty calorie dense! But, let’s look at the other stats: 16 grams of fat, 8 grams of protein, 6 grams of carbs. Peanut butter is a great source of healthy fat. Yes, fat is healthy. Some people hear the word “fat” and associate it with being fat. I eat anywhere from 2-5 tablespoons of peanut butter a day. Seriously. Fat is necessary in your diet. It is one of the body’s energy sources. There are also studies that say that eating healthy fats can actually help you burn fat! Some examples of healthy fats that I eat are raw unsalted nuts, avocado, all-natural nut butters, coconut oil, fish, chia seeds, and extra virgin olive oil. Don’t fear the fat!

If you clean up your diet, eat very few processed foods, drink water, and have consistently in your diet and exercise, you will see results! Excessive amounts of cardio and restricting yourself in terms of diet will not get you a toned, healthy looking body that will look slamming in a bikini. Incorporate some weights into your workout routine, or do some body-weight exercises. Do less steady-state cardio and do some interval training! You will burn calories faster in a shorter amount of time, and it will burn calories for a longer period after you are done training. It keeps your body guessing because the intensity changes. I love to do HIIT for 10-15 minutes following about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes of weight training.

The more muscle you have, the more fat you burn. It takes more effort to keep muscle on than fat, so with more muscle you will burn more calories just existing! Don’t be afraid to learn how to use weights! Go to www.bodybuilding.com and access their amazing database of information and tutorials of how to perform moves properly. Form is so important! The program I started with was Jamie Eason’s Live Fit Trainer.

Or, if you can work with a personal trainer, do so! They can help you form a goal and teach you how to achieve it!

Good luck achieving that healthy fit body that looks killer on the beach, but try and make being healthy and fit a change for life. Don’t just be fit for the summer! I have confidence in each and every one of you!

Bravo bravo bravo.

All the awards. 🙏

I don’t want this blog to be about reblogging but this is a MUST.

This is my favourite post so far - more people need to realize this! Some fats are essential to our health! And low calories DON’T COUNT when they’re in chemically created Oreos and Nutter Butters and crap.

Eat FOOD. NOT food-like products. Work out like you mean it/ Do that, and you’ll see the results you want! But YOU have to put the time and effort into cleansing your insides and being active every day!

Good read!

Trust me, I know from experience - no matter how much effort you put behind it, trying to stick to workouts that are fueled by self-loathing is an uphill battle that you’re not likely to see through to positive results.
