I don’t like to add to the noise of Software Developer Do Dumb Thing, but I feel like this is as if the Japanese government sent me an email going “it turns out there are a lot of you named Kenji Tanaka, so to solve this problem we are retiring passport numbers”
Our username system makes it difficult for folks fluent in other languages to express themselves. That’s why we’re moving to a system like the one on Twitter, where every Asian artist forced to get an alphanumeric username has a handle like @bc2931a or @2023jx or @wabababxa_, which is very easy to remember and shows how versatile alphanumeric handles are at expressing one’s non-English-speaking self

the answer is that they don’t want fat people to exist, period. not in restaurants, not in the gym, not on the bus next to them. nowhere. they want you to be born skinny, or cease to exist. it’s never been about health or exercise. they don’t care about fat people point blank.
I don’t get harassing fat people that exercise.
“Ew… you’re fat.”
Do you want them to not be fat? Then maybe let them exercise.
(Also Lizzo is fat and like in amazing shape compared to most skinny people. So like fat people can be healthy.)
