Thank you, news nerds, I can now hold a conversation about crypto and inflation in addition to being able to sing "Let It Go" or is it "How Far I'll Go"? 

As my go to news source for nearly a decade, I was thrilled to see that they've been highlighting topics like fatphobia which they state as a "public health problem". They even created a guide that covers topics like fat stigma, body positivity, think privilege, BMI and diet culture. Cue the confetti! It's...
