The Bluest Dice Goblin

it was kind of fucked up for wall-e to be that way about fat people now that im thinking about it

I’m never NOT thinking about how the first 40ish minutes of Wall•E are the most evocative, beautiful thing that the Walt Disney company has ever produced bar none, and then the SECOND they reach the space station it becomes the most boring, blunt and extremely ableist “save the earth” animated kids movie in existance for the movie’s remaining sixty minutes. Why did they do that to him.

guys I think maybe the space station part is important to the artistic themes of the movie

frankly i feel like if you read wall-e as fatphobic you're kinda misunderstanding the messaging of the film

I feel like you can make the same messages without putting the idea of being fat/needing mobility aids as a moral failing. I understand where the idea comes from, but just because the idea has good intentions doesn't mean the effect isn't shitty.

"humanity lived on a space socialism ship where everyone had their needs met. They got fat and lazy. They never made any art all they did was get eat and be dumb and use mobility scooters. This is a moral failing. We need to force everyone to work on a farm and grow their own food because that would make them not dumb and lazy"

The notes on this post really illustrate how a lot of people refuse to acknowledge that analysis that looks at the events in a piece of fiction as the result of choices made by the artist and analysis that looks at the events of a piece of fiction as the result of in-universe cause and effect relationships are operating on fundamentally different and often incompatible wavelengths.

"But it makes sense that they were that way because they were FORCED to live a sedentary lifestyle all their life" yeah turns out the critique here is not coming from an in-universe "it doesn't make sense" perspective, it's coming from an out-of-universe "the artists choosing to use fatness and reliance on mobility aids as a visual shorthand for societal decay has fucked up Implications™" perspective.

what tha hell here u go a experience

law #1: you may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm

here’s to unhealthy fat people

if ur fat bcuz ur disabled. disabled bcuz ur fat. are unhealthy for other reasons, unrelated to fatness. unhealthy bcuz ur fat. are fat because of things like diabetes.

a lot of body positivity is about ‘being fat isn’t inherently unhealthy’ which, yes, while this is true, there are outliers. for some people being fat is unhealthy. that’s okay. they deserve positivity too!

you’re not morally wrong for struggling. you aren’t a bad stereotype. you’re a person. there are so many people out there and such a wide range of experiences that it’s bound someone like you exists. that’s okay. you’re okay.

oh you wanted T as in testosterone. i thought you meant T as in T-virus resident evil. well the good news is that you're still gonna transform at least
