What are you listening to?

I’m old-fashioned and still buy all my music, because I’m super picky about what I listen to and I like owning my mp3s.

(I once managed to narrow a Pandora list down to exactly four songs because I couldn’t stop messing with it.)

My playlists could use some fresh sound, so I bought some new music last night and coincidentally it all made a pretty great playlist combined! Here’s what I got:

💿 AURORA
💿 Chvrches
💿 Dua Lipa
💿 AK
💿 Eivør
💿 Gungor
💿 Heilung
💿 Lindsey Stirling
💿 MARINA (lots of capital-letter artists this time around)
💿 Ward Thomas
💿 Yal!x

What are you listening to right now? Tell me on Instagram or Facebook.

On the choice of “fatphobia”
ByLindley Ashline March 22, 2023March 3, 2023

Sometimes a stray comment or post on social media will spark something in my mind, and suddenly I have an opinion on it. This time it was a comment on a fat activist’s Instagram post informing the activist that they shouldn’t be using the term “fatphobia” because “people aren’t afraid of fat people, so it’s…

“Can’t we all just celebrate progress?”
ByLindley Ashline February 5, 2021February 24, 2021

One of the most common pieces of pushback I see against fat acceptance and the need to represent fat and very fat people is, “Why are you so negative? Can’t we all just celebrate all the progress that’s been made? You’re so divisive!” It’s often accompanied by more-enlightened-than-thou comments about wanting to focus on “the good,” as if those of us confronting oppression are somehow more negative than those who want to cover up and ignore it.

Noodling on social media and blogging
ByLindley Ashline December 13, 2018May 24, 2019

Let it be entered into the permanent record that I’m actually managing to take it relatively easy this week. I’m slowing down a bit, relaxing a bit. Petting the cats more and using my hands a bit less. This was a good week to upgrade my computer, since I’m feeling a bit less pressure…

The memories are what matter.
ByLindley Ashline October 13, 2023October 13, 2023

Earlier this year, I flew cross-country for the first time during the pandemic to SEE MY BABY SISTER GRADUATE WITH HER MBA. I was a first-gen college student, and not only has my sister surpassed me in education, she did it while working full time as a single mom. I’m so proud of her I…

For the folks who are losing it
ByLindley Ashline August 21, 2020August 21, 2020

The first two paragraphs of the thought below deserve a content note for violence and fat hatred, though the rest doesn’t. Please protect yourself as needed. I got my first death wish this week. One of my anti-diet Facebook posts was apparently shared in a Facebook group for bodybuilders that spends some of their effort…
