Does she feel less gross because she’s looking at herself on a mobile phone in a photo with heavy filters? Basically not facing reality but a heavy altered facsimile?
It’s sad that she looks so fat and awful even with all the beauty filters on. It’s truly amazing how fat she is while being a junkie squatter. Usually junkies spend all their money on drugs so they have no extra for food and the drugs make hunger easy to ignore. She must scarf down fast food and desserts like a champ.
I can only imagine how fucking fat Luna would be if she had normal living conditions and got off the drugs. People tend to get fat when they get off drugs. Part of it is filling the addiction void with food, but the other was the drugs made them unnaturally thin so they suddenly became the weight they would have been without drugs. (Amber Lynn’s mom is a good example of this.)
I just can’t fathom how fat Luna would be if she stopped using drugs. I’m sure she and Lurch get food stamps, but probably trade them in for cash/drugs. Besides they don’t really have a working kitchen in the squat so I’ll have to assume she’s so fat from constant take-out and bags of chips and cookies. Seems weird they’d be using cash for food, or maybe Lurch is just a pro-dumpster diver. He strikes me as a guy who would call in orders, then wait for them to be tossed in the dumpster after closing. Keeping Luna fat might be a point of pride since emaciated junkies girls are the norm, so having a prized pig in that world might give him a few extra status points.
