I just finished watching dumplin'

Okay, so this is a movie that I wish I had seen so many years ago. It's so delightful, it's so cheesy, it has ridiculousy overt messages, but I didn't care because for just about the ONLY time I can remember there was more than one fat girl on screen, and one of them was the main character with good friends and a guy who liked her and who got to have a story that was affected but not defined by her weight.

I honestly can't tell you how much it meant to me.
