Outtake: One Connection Healthcare | small business branding and visuals in Seattle

ByLindley Ashline

Generally I don’t retouch bodies, but I made an exception here — to remove a mosquito captured in the act of gnawing on her!

The cruelty is the point.

Cruelty is an inherent part of diet culture. Diet culture gives us a dichotomy: bodies are either good (thin) or bad (fat).
