Fatties against fascism! Close the camps! Fuck ICE! Roast that mf’n CIRCUS PEANUT! Y’all follow @fatlibink and take this demonstration in! TAKE UP SPACE! . Repost from @fatlibink: . PARTICIPATE FROM EVERYWHERE! Calling all Fat people, all Disabled people, all our loved ones, and anyone who has experienced being separated, shut away, controlled, disposed of, incarcerated in prisons, nursing homes, fat camps, psych institutions, or generally told they are the problem for society’s woes to UNITE in solidarity with migrants. ✊ Together we demand an end to the brutal treatment of migrants, an end to concentration camps, and an end to ICE. We know Disability Justice means we must hold community members whose impairments are created intentionally as a result of state terror, incarceration, border policing, war, and so many tools of domination.✊ As Disabled and Fat people of many communities, we know and therefore must insist: NO BODY IS DISPOSABLE! ✊ WE ARE RESILIENT AND STILL HERE! ✊ WE WILL NOT ALLOW THE ERASURE OF IMMIGRANTS! ✊ ✊ . BE PART OF THIS MOVEMENT POST SELFIES NOW: Make or Download/print signs from FatRose.org, and post selfies on Twitter, IG, FB, with hashtags: #NoBodyIsDisposable #CloseTheCamps #AbolishICE #FattiesAgainstFascism #fatlibink... etc... ✊ . #unlikelyhikers #fatandoutdoorsy #mybodytookmehere

I feel best when I’m as close to water as possible. Gorgeous evening kayak with @wilddiversity! If you’re queer and/or a person of color, you have got to check out their schedule. No one else is offering such a diverse (heh) line-up of events: dragonfly walks, campouts, backpacking trips, kayaking, climbing, etc. wilddiversity.com ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍Warren, Oregon. This land belongs to the Chinook, Atfalati, Cowlitz, Kalapuya and likely other tribes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #wilddiversity #fatandoutdoorsy #mybodytookmehere #unlikelyhikers #itakethelongway

SHOUT YOUR ANTI-DEPRESSANTS! Or mood stabilizers, anti-psychotics, herbs, happy pills, whatever! I take Lexapro and Wellbutrin. I’ve been on both for the last year, but I’ve been on Lexapro before and been on some form of medication for most of my adult life. I have CPTSD. My mental illness manifests in a lot of ways: addiction, depression, anxiety, agoraphobia, suicidal ideation and more, but you get the gist. I often wonder what my mental health would be like if I hadn’t/didn’t experience so much trauma growing up and from fatphobia, etc. My mental health is much better than it’s ever been, but it’s been a fight for my life. I can finally afford to maintain having insurance and even just knowing I have access to care has a positive impact on my mental health. WHAT ABOUT YOU?! Ain’t no shame in our game! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ BOUNDARY: no judgment or assumptions about why/how people treat their mental illness. Speak from experience. Don’t generalize or otherwise assume you know what will be better for someone because it worked for you xo ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #fatandoutdoorsy #mybodytookmehere #onetrail #outsidewithpride #mynextadventure #whyihike #unlikelyhikers #itakethelongway #hikeformentalhealth #diversifyoutdoors

The many moods of last weekend. Not pictured: the most lightning I’ve ever seen. It was cool at first, but after literal hours of it... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📍Goat Rocks Wilderness, Washington. This land belongs to the Nisqually, Cowlitz, Yakama and possibly other tribes. #goatrockswilderness ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #fatandoutdoorsy #mybodytookmehere #onetrail #merrellambassador #outsidewithpride #mynextadventure #whyihike #unlikelyhikers #itakethelongway #goatlake #diversifyoutdoors
