*experiences romance once* augh… my delicate constitution… *develops consumptive fever and falls into a coma*
did you attend middle school in the 19th century or something
i lived in a really rural town and we were doing an incubation unit in science at the time and the teacher joked that we’d better keep the baby chicks away from Kyle’s (the boy who kissed her) lips and then everyone jumped on the bandwagon and made fun of him for having the kiss of death and then he ran into the woods after school and climbed into a tree and howled for a little while in anguish (at the time his friends were also doing this really big werewolf roleplay thing) but then came down after his mom came to pick him up
he felt really bad about getting her (Katie) sick so he put all of his silly bandz in a box to give her after she got better but then the very day she returned he didn’t go to school and we never heard from him again because his whole family had left town. and like he kissed her in the first place because it was his last chance to do it since he was moving from town the next week but like the timing was crazy given the circumstances
anyway Katie got better and then she had a monopoly on the seventh grade for a little while because she had a crazy amount of silly bandz which were like a symbol of coolness so she became really popular for a solid three weeks or so and everyone forgot she kissed a werewolf and then immediately fell ill so it all worked out in the end
Tumblr deleted my long ass rant while I was in the middle of writing it so you’re spared and will only get a summed up version
Long story short; your abs are supposed to be covered with a healthy, protective layer of fat. The shape Jason Momoa is in during his movies is achieved by a diet designed to lower his body fat to unhealthy numbers, dehydrating him and enhancing his abs with make up. This is what ripped, muscular, healthy person looks like on their off time. If you think this is a dad bod, for the love of everything that is holy, shut up and absolutely never comment on a man’s body ever again. I mean hell, you can still see his damn v-line, what fucking dad bod has that?!
Don’t believe me? Google some bodybuilders who are off their contest diet. The men who literally make a living for having defined muscles. For 360 days a year, they do not look like the way you think they do. During a bodybuilding contest, these men’s body fat is under 7%, they’re dehydeated and covered in fake tan that helps the muscles show up. And it’s literally only for that day, because it’s extremely unhealthy. Same goes for actors who are known for being ripped - they’re at their worst when they’re filming. This exact same shit happened with Vin Diesel few years ago with people getting a paparazzi shot of his “beer belly” and I’m genuinely worried of the young men who grow up in this society thinking being muscular means having defined abs 24/7.
Jason Momoa looks ripped and healthy, yall are just blind with unrealistic standards.
“This is what actors (& models & bodybuilders) do. If you see them with razor cut abs, they have been on a low carb, water-reducing diet to get there. You cannot retain that and be healthy.
When we shot WOLVES, Jason asked me, “Do I have to have abs n’ shit for this?”
I said no.”
“The wood chopping scene in The Wolverine was all the footage they could get before Hugh Jackman passed out from dehydration. Dehydration and steroids are the big secret behind Hollywood muscle definition.”
“Yeah there was a huge piece a few years ago about the prevalence of doping in the aftermath of Dark Knight (roughly), it became an arms race of every male actor going on roids for definition. Compare Jackman in XMen 1 from 2000 to him in Logan, for example.”
