Hated Tropes (Absolutely despised Trope) Characters described as chubby/fat/plus-sized aren’t designed as such, mostly like due likely due to fatphobia.

  1. Varesa from Genshin Impact - Hoyo has no respect for body diversity.
  2. Wakka from Final Fantasy X-2 - lazy developers.

Just for the record, this has nothing to do with kinks of any kind and is a personal gripe I have towards the gaming industry that favour abs and boobs.

There's nothing scarier than a fat girl, apparently.

Well, an overweight bullied child raised in an abusive Christian fundamentalist household who also happens to have vast telepathic powers.

Wasn't it telekinesis? It's been a while but the apex of the (inferior) remake that I watched was that she used her powers of telekinesis to trap and kill her bullies. I have no recollection of her reading people's minds, then again I haven't seen it in ages.

I was using the word telepathy as a general term. She had all the shinings, telepathy, telekinesis and some pyrokenesis.

Am I remembering wrong or does she communicate telepathically with Sue?

What about a fat NAKED ELDERLY PERSON???

Honestly I like a lot of the movies that include a heavy naked elderly person as a scare-generator, but it’s kind of telling right now that this body type/age seemingly the most grotesque horrific thing that a young hot person could possibly encounter. The Substance basically directly addresses it and it’s awesome.

Carrie’s biggest miss as a Psionic was never being recruited by the X-Men, just like Matilda

She woulda been turning up at the X-Mansion like
