I keep coming back to ben roswell's tweets on hades and fatphobia. I agree with them, and I keep thinking about them b/c it reminded me of the first time I played hades, an earlier beta, and I saw the design of the fat enemy and felt awful, but I pushed that down and kept playing
It feels shitty to realize this after all this time. I've dealt with a lot of internalized hate about my weight. Fighting those instincts went hand in hand with my transition. I thought I had crested some sort of hill when I started to feel comfortable in my body, but...
The thing with unlearning hate is that it's a long battle. I figured out how to love myself but part of fighting back against fatphobia is being able to see when it happens and not fall for it again. It's tiring when you constantly look out for ways society tries to undermine you
Which is why pushing it down can feel easier sometimes. I'm sick of feeling tired. But it's work you have to do. Idk how to end this thread except by saying that I'm glad ben spoke up about it. I'll link it here as well https://twitter.com/roswellwrites/status/1312742276578377730
