The test they were using was meant to confirm COVID-19 after a person becomes symptomatic (to confirm that the person has COVID and not something else like the flu). It’s very accurate when used to confirm a diagnosis. It was not meant to be used as a screening test. It is not accurate when used as a screening test. These people literally didn’t read the fucking instruction manual.

You’re fine. The clothes are made to be easy to manufacture on machines, not for bodies. The clothes suck, not you.

They’re also manufactured to look attractive on hangers, and very few of us are shaped like hangers. You’re fine.

😱😰😭😭😭😭😭😭😭thank u please more of this type of body positivity I need it

Legit though! I’m a hobbyist seamstress and these are my experiences when shopping mainstream:

For example, most H&M blouses these days don’t even have boobdarts. Which means they will sit awkwardly on literally anyone with boobs, no matter the size. But on hangers or when folded on display? They look fab as fuck. Because hangers don’t have boobs. And the models chosen to show them on the catwalk are usually chosen for their lack of boobage too (unless it’s for lingerie), other requirements including ridiculous size and weight requirements. As for the average (EU available) clothing shops, the worst offender I’ve encountered yet was Zara. Everything’s way too long and way too flat: clearly aimed to look good on the catwalk models but not intended for normal people. At all.

Also sizes are just numbers. Shopping online has taught me that I’m a European M, an American XS-S, and a Japanese L-XL. And then these sizes even vary from shop to shop in the same country: I’m an XL at Apples but an S at Lola&Liza, for example. They’ve also been reducing the sizes of these numbers throughout the years to make people feel bad about themselves and to sell more weight-loss products. Don’t let a number get you down, it does not define you.

So please don’t feel bad about yourself when shops refuse to cater to your size. The clothes they sell are not aimed at real human beings. They are the ones in the wrong here, not you!

body posi posts are the ones 

I needed this after yesterday. :/

(these are figures for the French clothing industry but I’m sure it’s true in other countries)

Only 0.6% of clothes are available in 46 (again : french size) when 10% of women wear that size. 14% of clothes are available in 34 when only 0.7% of women wear that size.

The most selled size is 42 when the most manufactured is 36.

See the problem? It’s the whole industry that sucks. Not you and your body.

Thank you💖 reblogged for any of my followers who are self conscious about how they fit in clothes

El Jadida known as cistern, it is famous especially for the thin layer of water that covers the floor, and which creates fine and exciting reflections from the little light there is and the spartan shapes of the columns and the roof.

Every question they get wrong they lose more money, from their current savings, to one million.

The questions are all things ordinary people should know.

“Whats the cost of a loaf of bread?”

“What’s the minimum wage?”

And then we move on to practical demonstrations later,

“change this car’s tire”

Or even, “change the bag on this vacuum cleaner.”

And the final question should probably be “how much tax should your company be paying?”

And the losing contestants have to donate the monetary diffrence to a cause of the audience’s choosing

And the audience is all lower middle class

man we really out here wanting to shoot at the 1%’s feet and watch them dance about like monkeys aint we lmao
