Be fat all you want. But YOU pay for the extra plane seat and for all the health issues being a fatty brings along with it.

That’s right. I see no reason to pay for someone else’s irresponsible lifestyle choices.

The San Francisco Department of Public Health has hired a self-described “anti-weight-based discrimination” expert

Fine. You also get her health care bills, which will be many.

What’s it pay? I could be a fat specialist. I mean, it’s just another fake invented profession. Like DEI specialist. Just take a couple of worthless college classes and you to can be a “soft scientist.”

“Soft science” is just another term for “charlatanism.”

There should be a stigma. Being fat is bad for you.

A local tv station in my town hired a very fat woman to anchor the morning news. (Does calling her an anchor make you laugh?) The problem is her success has her dieting and she is losing weight. Under the rules of DEI, should they can her?

Besides being biased I also avoid whales like that at all costs. I cannot take them seriously about anything except where the best pizza or burger is...

Or is your family perfect? :)

I am a “bald positivity” expert dealing with “hair stigma” issues. Where do I apply?

Okay, in the “Nobody asked you” department:

I understand this person may never win a Miss America contest, as I wouldn’t win any similarly corresponding contest, but honestly, why do people seemingly go out of their way to look as unattractive as possible?

Is it possible to wear less ostentatious glasses? Is it possible to groom your hair? Is it possible to wear clothes that may be more appropriate for your personal body contours?

I take it that they don’t like JFK any more:

"Tovar’s website lists her as a ​”plus-size..."

She is NOT "plus-size". She is morbidly OBESE and she is promoting that? Another insane idea for the once great city of San Francisco.

RE: original idea of Fentanyl Positivity.

Good one.

That one scored high ((intentional)) with the violent drug gangs but not with the general public.
