I play Magic and X-wing miniatures. Magic is definitely a game I recommend to anyone looking to get into card games. You can start with a $15 investment into an intro pack. Your local game shop will generally have at least one person willing to help a new player if you show up on a night they have an event.
X-wing is a dogfighting game using Star Wars ships. The core set is $40 and gives you some ships in both imperial and rebel factions. Heads up you see all the ships in the core set in the window on the box. Red print gets you classic pilots, Blue gets you force awakened ones. You can play competitively for under $100 for rebel and imperial factions, the scum and villainy faction is a little more expensive because you still need the movement templates and range ruler from the core set but get no useful ships. Scum can still be viable for probably $130-150

I'm a gainer for sure. I choose gainer over feedee because for me the pleasure of growing is personal, not something that I want or need a partner to share it with. This isn't to say I don't enjoy pigging out with others occasionally, but I'm content gaining with or without them.

I tend towards comfortable clothes instead of trying to show off, but that doesn't stop me from wearing sorts that cling to my belly or shirts that stretch across it a bit tighter than planned. Ironically the only thing that bothers me in clothing is shirts that cling to the moobs too much. I like mine so I don't know why it bothers me, probably a decade of trying not to look like the fat guy even if i am the fat guy in the group.

I'd probably go Pizza or Pie just due to variety.
But those 2 are honestly cop outs since they can be made with really any filling or topping. They just limit the form of your food, like saying sandwiches, you could eat anything between two slices of bread.

Streetlight Manifesto's Everything Goes Numb album. YouTube decided it was what i needed to hear today and it's absolutely made my day. Good call YouTube.

I always enjoy the public scales that have a big easy to see readout. 200 was fun but i was too self conscious back then to really enjoy it, really enjoying stepping on and seeing the weight go over 350, have had a few give me an error because i'm too heavy now, that was amazing.
Personal favorite though is the weight guesser at the local fairs. He's usually in the median between the 2 walkways with his big scale and guessing weights loud enough to hear him from about 20 feet away. I usually win too since I've got a fair amount of muscle under all this fat.

Size acceptance is a movement that is trying to diminish the anti-fat bias in culture, law and medicine. Culturally it supports the idea that you can be beautiful at any size, not just the thin image the media forces on us.
We benefit from the movement but they would prefer we didn't make a big deal about our gaining.
Size acceptance is a growing trend though. You can tell this by things like more stores carrying larger sizes and nicer clothes being produced for sizes that require more than one X.

Honestly this is why I'm not a writer. I love making characters but in letting my characters be true to themselves I've found they tend not to be people I want to continue writing about.
