Heed the content warnings in the video, this video is a difficult watch, but it's really good. Thought Slime: Can I learn to love my body?

And you can't just say no, it's a systemic problem that could be solved with walkable cities, better public transportation, stretching breaks at work, eliminating or greatly reducing subsidies for corn and processed foods, and other stuff. We have to consider every step food takes from its source to the shelves, and all the reasons citizens aren't able to be more active or afford foods that could better support an active life.

All things that are certainly achievable if we all take responsibility for community health instead of wailing on individuals.
