We’re back with another history deep dive- this time Princess Diana!
- Why "she had BPD" became the easy write-off for any woman whose life looks chaotic — and why the people armchair-diagnosing Diana were, predictably, men
- Why bulimia is the "unsexy" eating disorder, and what that says about whose suffering gets taken seriously
- Why we're so obsessed with being "regulated" and "calm," and what nonchalance culture has to do with Diana being called craz
- Why "doing it for attention" was never the gotcha people thought it was
- What happens when an institution decides a woman is the problem
