     The recent use of TikTok videos using fatspiration, and to a lesser extent thinspiration, on Twitter (@caloire, 2020) has brought a lot of negative attention to Eating Disorder Twitter (edtwt) and to a lesser extent other pro-ana and eating disorder communities on other platforms. There are those within edtwt who are arguing against TikTok users posting thinspiration and fatspiration content (@dietlix, 2020; @somehowatypical, 2020). However, this continues to be an issue across social media platforms.

     For this thesis, I followed one account that was a mixture of pro-ana and media fandom content, which caused my otherwise fandom-oriented timeline to become full of dieting tips, edtwt [Eating Disorder Twitter] memes, and even intra-community arguments.
