Being a nonbinary lesbian is like I don't have a gender but my gender is dyke and I'm not a guy but I am one of the guys and also I'm not a woman but when people talk about women I'm included. Hope this clears things up

One of us fronted after seeing this, cried and said "that's me!" We have all not spoken to or heard from her in months now.

Reengaging with this app was worth it

despite everything.

We don't know why we dropped posting here...

The lack of positivity originating from comedic and relatable post about neurodivergency, and just funny shit in abundance has left a hole in most of us...

We will probably forget again that this app exists but in the mean time:

"Hello fellow peeps (who are - probably- as neurodivergent as we are)

seeing people my age talk about how scared they are of memory loss, which they only associate with old age, is so surreal to see as a 24 year old who has actively experienced memory loss for a long time now

there are causes for memory loss besides dementia and alzheimer’s, i hope y’all know that. dissociative disorders, trauma, brain injuries, thyroid problems, even just stress and lack of sleep can fuck up your ability to store, process, and access memory. and that’s just a few of the many causes i can think of off the top of my head right now.

please stop treating disabled people like some scary “other” that you might become only in the distant, decades-away future. we are your age, too. you may become one of us sooner than you know. stop acting like memory loss marks the end of a life, when so many of us have so much living left to do!

Plural Culture is having that guilty feeling that you're overwhelming your partner(s) and friend(s) because there's so much going on in your head and you just end up talking about it a lot.

ik we post funny stuff abt DID but its not all sunshines and rainbows

some headmates are TERRIFYING and are a danger to headmates , friends and the body

masking is exhausting and leaves us unable to function for days depending on heavily we mask

we forget incredibly important info and basic shit like hygeine and self care

being frontlocked can be terrifying depending on what happens / happened , not to mention exhausting

NOT TO MENTION

its a trauma disorder. we deal with the effects of our trauma constantly simply because we exist and its stressful and painful

this isnt even the half of it

imagine you’re on a road trip with the love of your life and your boyfriend like, insists you pick up this fucked up little hitchhiker who’s like 4 feet tall and looks like he’s literally about to die, then you hear the hitchhiker conspiring to KILL you and your boyfriend and steal your shit, so you tell your boyfriend and he’s like “oh no he’s harmless you’re lying” and basically this fucked up danny devito sized slimeball breaks up your relationship and your boyfriend leaves you on the side of the road!! that’s what happened to samwise gamgee.

a comic about my name

this is just the way I look at it to feel empowered/at peace with how I'm called different names by different people

obviously it's not the same for everyone but looking at it like this is just what made me happy
