Hello, I'm Cate! I'm studying computer science in Vancouver, BC, I have a lot of feelings about stupid television and mediocre webcomics, and I play the banjo. Activism and social justice are extremely important to me, and they show up every once in a while, but I'm generally more of a volunteering-off-the-internet person than a yelling-at-people-online one. I also draw occasionally. I try to stick the more interesting non-reblogged stuff into the my posts tag! My tumblr is nothing special.

he makes some good points about the fat body and health

This is really worth watching! I’ve found over time from trying to learn more about this sort of thing that people make a lot of assumptions about fatness—esp. what it means for one’s health to be fat and how to lose weight—based on ~*conventional wisdom~* that aren’t necessarily true. I think anything that changed my perception of the world in a positive way is worth sharing, so! Mind you, this is just one dude’s scientific opinion, but what he’s saying makes a lot of sense to me, esp. backed up by articles like this one.
