#and it was ableist af

“Winners don’t hit snooze” drop dead actually. Fucking die.

Winners don’t go around assuming everyone is just as privileged and healthy and well rested as them

Winners don’t shame others for whatever accommodations they might need to maintain a decent quality of life

Winners don’t act like pretentious ableist assholes in fact I’m pretty sure winners are perceptive open-minded kind and understanding. Idk

Cringe culture is literally just bullying, ableism, and pretty privilege all mixed together in one pot. The fact that neurodivergent/disabled people as well as those who aren't considered conventionally attractive to most of the public are frequently targeted says all we need to know.

Notice how it's perfectly fine for a neurotypical individual to express their interest in something and talk about it, but the moment a person with ADHD and/or Autsim does, it's considered "obsessive", "weird", and "cringe" even though they're literally doing the SAME THING. Yeah, it's not a coincidence.

Cringe culture has always aimed at putting down those who don't fit into society's standards. I said it once and I’ll say it again: CRINGE IS NOT REAL! And if you TRULY ARE embarrassed by somebody else’s actions, the PROPER term would be second hand embarrassment, NOT cringe. Thank you for coming to my TEDTalk.

Long-PSA-short of sorts that's more a vent: I was always aware my behavior and way of expressing myself online can surprise many people, especially if they are not used to someone who uses the writing medium as a playful form to tell emotions in a very descriptive way as I do. I'm quite affectionate with words, yes. And I always beg people I hang with personally to let me know if some of that bothers them, curtly of course. So far there have been few instances of individuals confusing those signals with ulterior means, things I assure you there's nothing more than me being friendly and supportive.

Imagine idk an excited dog seeing its owner haha

Until the past week, I found myself being tackled by something that made me almost knock everything aside because it made me realize that probably I'm a walking trigger/squick inducer with even the way I wield words like "love" and "friendship".

Almost...

I'm pretty tolerant of whatever way people conduct themselves in this life, the only moment I flinch is when an individual assumes from my default behavior and presentation that I want to impose my way of life... And nopes.

This is simply how and who I am. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't search for conflict but for understanding. My language for expressing marvel and reflections is like this, never to make the other feel awkward or attacked.

So, it upset me knowing that by wielding this forever welcoming and lovable disposition, I can be something to fear and even despite... to some people.

But, you know? That means that my "love" and "friendship" lifestyle are not made for you, no reason to come back to me and point at it. Just keep walking if you have only rage and rejection to give as a reply to my point of view. Because by wielding rage and rejection, what you only do is burn bridges. To create conflict and assume imaginary antagonistic scenarios where there's nothing of that at all.

You can't create the world you wish to live in by burning bridges.

It took me a lot too to forge who I am right now. I even keep learning and chiseling through traumas and mistakes—kindness and patience taught me more than rage and rejection. And "love" and "friendship" are the bricks I chose to build those bridges. I know everyone else uses different concepts but in the end, we all build bridges. By creating bridges and inviting others to do the same, I expand not only my world, but the other's too!

Isn't that better than demanding to be this or that through a black/white flag of rage and rejection? I think so. And I understand perfectly we sometimes need to be blunt when marking our boundaries. Still, never justifies treating the other bad.

And if some of you find "fake" or distasteful the way I wear this flag of "love" and "friendship" I'm sorry: this place will never be safe for you then. The exit door is always open. Go ahead.

I hope you find your place and flags out there too, but don't forget that to do that you need to build bridges. If you don't want to call it "friendship" call it "glue" or whatever makes you comfortable, but don't kick people like me who fought with claws and teeth to reclaim those words and feelings.

Fight your fight by being a good example, not a bad experience that makes someone never want to deal with something like this again in their life.

I've been thinking about gnc gunther for too long

[nikkoliferous]

your joint hater aka huntingbitches or pee pee has a screenshot of your face on her dashboard.

this account is supported by three bullies

yeah, I've seen the post. she posts a photo of me that's literally a solid decade old and somehow wants people to actually believe she's not obsessed with me and has not gone looking for any info about me. it's quite amusing, really. I guess it's rough when you can't decide whether you want to be perceived as creepy or reasonable. 🤷‍♀️

If you’re having a hard time reading as an adult I CANNOT recommend audiobooks enough

They’re free on the Libby app, you can put them on fast forward if you have ADHD so finishing is easier and faster and, most importantly for me, you can multitask while reading

I think Gotham has more autistic people than the average city and therefore they tend to be more accomodating to neurodivergency.

P.S.A RE: JOU KIDO'S TRI~KIZUNA~THE BEGINNING SEIYUU {JUNYA IKEDA}

If you have time, PLEASE go write a message of support on Junya Ikeda’s tweet. {tri. Jou’s V.A.} Please be kind and respectful if you do. IMPORTANT: In your messages, DO NOT compare Junya's work as Tri~The Beginning!Jou to other works or roles!! Focus on describing what you like about Junya's performance! DO NOT describe what you dislike about the series, focus on what you like!

Easy Complimenting for J.P.N Artists (Can use some of these to compliment Junya's work)

Junya mentions that Junya would love handwritten letters {in any language} If you struggle with space you can format envelop this way Romaji for address J.P.N text for address

This is a developing situation. As of right now, it seems no one active on Toei U.S. side is commenting on it / addressed it (please inform me if they do!) TW: Talk of suicidal ideation {Junya discusses chronic depression} Please take caution if you choose to read Junyas letter, but please also show Junya support right now if you can!!

Aside from Jou, here are more of Ikeda's roles.

EDIT: JUNYA IS OK!!! {More info}! Junya was grateful to already receive so many letters, but this is still a developing situation, and obviously Junya would clearly still love to hear from everyone!! Junya's DMs {direct messages} have also been opened again! If you struggle with the word limit, DMs would be the way to send something if you can't send via mail!!

(I am not a professional translator, this was auto translated) ^ Regardless, it's clear Junya would still love messages, so let's please continue to SUPPORT Junya during this time!!

JUNYA LEAVING DMs OPEN IS A PRIVILEGE TO FANS. DO NOT abuse this by sending rude comments, bashing / blatant putting down of other series or Tri, comparing of other roles, comparing of Junya to others in the industry, etc.! Please remember to be KIND & RESPECTFUL!

STOP USING OTHER PEOPLE'S BIGOTRY TO JUSTIFY YOUR ABLEISM! THEY MAY BE AN ASSHOLE BUT YOU'RE STILL AN ABLEIST! IT'S NOT THE DISABLED COMMUNITY'S FAULT THAT THEY'RE A SHIT PERSON!!!

[polyamoryprincess]

I get why people are worried about misinformation because of the increase in mental health related TikTok’s and videos, and yeah some people are just neurotypical people looking for clout but like… that isn’t anything new… and then you have people who are neurodivergent making videos to either just make little jokes or share their experiences and symptoms or just trying to relate and make other neurodivergent people feel less alone and yeah maybe make money because in this world you have to monetize every single aspect of yourself Or Else™️ apparently, and people will just be so shitty about it.

Leaving comments about them being narcissistic and not really neurodivergent and how eeevvvvvveeeeerrrrrryyyyyyyyooonnnneeeee is like that too and acting like it’s the same as romanticizing mental illness. I’ve seen so many people on here claiming to be neurodivergent who talk like this and like that’s ableism babes. You’re just being ableist.

People romanticizing mental health struggles and adults not taking their kids seriously because they think it’s “just a fad” did not pop up in the age of tiktok and YouTube, it’s just the same bullshit that’s always happened.

so maybe just leave the random content creator making their stupid little videos alone.

just because people have done that thing where they’ve picked a group they think is deserving of mockery and therefore can be shitty to them without an ounce of guilt doesn’t mean you aren’t being an ableist piece of shit.

Neurodivergent people are allowed to joke and talk about their struggles without painting it as the bleakest existence there ever was and they’re allowed to explain why their brains make it extra hard to do maintenance and chores without being called lazy.

📣📣 You’re just being ableist 📣📣
