Telling the Truth about My Life (my mom, my weight, etc.)

im so tired of staying quiet. i want to start sharing my story bc i know there are others out there who have been through similar things...we can be stronger together. i am with you. and i no longer will stay silent about my own experiences. TW for sensitive topics.

BLACK LIVES MATTER
the ugly racial injustices and violence perpetrated against the black community cannot be ignored. it's long past time to dismantle white supremacy in America and around the world. it's up to everyone to do their part to be actively anti-racist and to keep speaking abt this issue (myself included). here are some links:

P.S. i am using a J* palette in the video. it was a gift. i DO NOT support him. i found out abt his racist/many disgusting actions after buying the conspiracy palette. it is a lesson to me to be more informed abt who i give my money to.
