Dare I Believe It?

So James Callis posts a video link on Twitter. I click on it and the title is "fat guy breaks chair in interview". Upon seeing the word "fat", blood backs up at the back of my neck, anticipating a major panic attack. This is it. He laughs at fat people, he posts videos about it, he'd see me as a joke.

But watching the video, it's not really that anti-fat. It's this really serious interview where the chair just breaks and the guy FALLS while talking about something very serious and I LOL'ed. Maybe I shouldn't have, but I did. The panic feeling subsided completely. So I guess he might laugh at fat people but this is no reason to assume so. I'm not slighted.

There was a double tweet, and I and notice something. He posted two separate links. The second one is the same video but titled "South African Politicians breaks chair". He deletes the first tweet with the "fat guy" link.

...Did he actually consider that "fat guy breaks chair" sounds rude? Has he read my anxious ponderings on whether he hates fat people? Does he, without reading my posts, care how fat people feel? O.o If he does, that's a huge thing. Huge. Because often even the most otherwise compassionate people laugh at fat people openly, with no apologies, and get annoyed when called on it.

I hesitate to post this in case I misunderstood somehow. I don't want to believe TOO good of him lest I become disappointed but honestly, how sweet is it if he thought of that? Maybe he, like, doesn't laugh at fat people. I... *cries* Oh my fangirl heart, it explodes.

james callis, please let it be so, fat
