Why is sitting on the counter so much better than sitting ANYWHERE else????? AM I A CAT???

I HATE tiktok and the Internet in general rn for the obsession with "oh this person's smellyyy" "Brother it STINKS over here" "BOO 💧🧼🧽🚿" and stuff like that. I wish I could put into words how demeaning and patronising that whole idea is and people implying anyone they don't like doesn't wash.

For one there's something grating about being insulted in a manner like we're in nursery again. But also WHY is that the go to insult. Why do you associate these things? Especially to those you deem "chronically online". Like I don't want to sound pathetic but it feels so nasty to me.

is it extreme to say this feels tied to ableism? And classism too?

You ever see a famous person and you’re just thinking. There’s something undiagnosed about you.

words are hard. explaining is hard. remember that while reading

the amount of disabled people on thos website who make posts going against each other makes me so sad. there's too many posts of "such and such people/random person are talking over people like me and making us look/feel bad, but they're wrong and not suffering as much so need to shut up!" can we stop invalidating each other because you claim they're invalidating you by speaking about their struggles????? can we all support each other instead????? ableism within disabled community here is awful.

I get it. sometimes people say a thing and you think it takes away from you or makes you feel bad. but that doesn't mean they did it on purpose/everyone with their condition is doing it on purpose. doesn't mean they know you and your feelings. doesn't mean their feeling is invalid because it hurt yours! and if it's just a thing you saw on tiktok, don't blame entirety of people with the condition because one or two people on tiktok don't speak for everyone! (not everyone uses tiktok either so don't act like everyone is getting info from there)

it's so frustrating and disappointing! can't say anything on here without upsetting and offending another disabled person because many different or new reasons every day! like you didn't mention that they have it worse or say yourself isn't suffering as much. or you use a phrase or word thar helps you but another group gatekeeps it. or you're simply "talking over" people you don't even know that decided you don't suffer and struggle enough because they "have it worse" and want you to talk about THEM and not just yourself. on your own blog. but somehow know to mention them and advicate for them so they don't have to or something???? is confusing.

words are hard. hard to explain this!!! but is frustrating and upsetting to see many disabled people here targeting each other more than ableds. example there's many posts of physical disabled vs ND, acting like being ND can't be disability. do you want to borrow my brain and see if it disables you more????? sometimes see opposite where ND is harder than physical disability. do you want to borrow my body and see if you can live easily??? see many physical disabled vs other physical disabled, example "cane user can't complain because I need wheelchair!" type things. or ND vs ND "I have more ND than you because I cant do *thing* alone but you can so you can't complain about struggling because you're talking over my bigger struggles"

I GET IT. everyone wants to feel valid and not feel talked over and all that stuffs. but stop fighting each other!!!!! stop invalidating each other because you feel invalidated/assume they are trying to invalidate you. is nothing but invalidating loop!!!! stop assuming everyone must talk about you and your struggle before their own because you think their voice shared means yours is blocked. stop having disability "Olympics" in which you jump through metaphoric hoops to prove you're more disabled and deserve most attention and more voice and everyone below is taking that away! learn how to support each other because we know ableds don't like supporting us!!!!!! we all suffer and struggle. why act like fellow disableds don't or arent allowed!! 😭😭😭😭😭 this is for both people that use tiktok to do "quirky" stuff or are able to push through struggles and want to act like everyone can too. and people with higher support needs that think lesser needs have super easy life and talk over them if they make post about their struggles. I see both!!!! a lot!!

never see anyone talk about ableism within disabled community and how it is bad for all of us!!!! but sure see lot of.......

I know. i'm bad at words. dont try to misunderstanding and attack and be mad at me! if you experience real problem with this you are valid in your feel. you can feel! but maybe don't do generalizing and invalidate all because one person or a few or tiktok did or said things you don't like. that make sense???

what is the peter maximoff fandom if not a handful of neurodivergent people projecting our experiences onto him

[myplasticadversary]

In all my inane Sheatles rambling I still sometimes wonder if I would feel differently about Yoko if she was a man and John was a woman, and to be honest I don't think it would really change that much for me. I think Yoko would've probably had a better shot at being treated as a legitimate artist, but on the other hand a lot of other folks would likely drag him through the mud for "ruining" or "trapping" poor girl John all the same. I don't know necessarily how the shifted social power dynamics would affect things that happened between them, if it would make Yoko's psychological fuckery worse or what, but ultimately I think I'd still be inclined to defend girl John's agency and she'd still be a beloved famous white woman with plenty of her own problems and lousy behavior to acknowledge.

[ramblingsofmrnobody]

For the unseen wooden bones that smoulder and blacken,

As my people dance before the fires we set to the mountainside,

For the heart that pumps thin emerald water in lieu of thick crimson blood,

Which beats for none other than myself and myself alone,

For the organic circuitry within my skull,

Laid out in error, with sparks that burn and singe and fly,

For the divinity rotting poison that bubbles under my skin,

That I welcome with open, hairy arms,

For the sloth that overtakes my body,

And seeps into sinew and muscles and tendons,

For the pleasures of the flesh which I partake in,

With men and women and those beyond,

For the names of gods long forgotten,

That we have not uttered since you razed our temples,

For the name of the god forced upon us,

Which you fail to see as your own,

For my body, a vessel for life,

That I made barren by my own hands,

For the names of bygone friends,

Spoken with the fondness of lost lovers,

For my own treason,

Of stepping over the line,

And crushing it beneath my foot,

Of twisting its shape and form,

And bending it to suit my own,

Of taking the chalk dust, and scattering it in the uncaring wind,

Over,

And over,

And over again,

For the prize of inhumanity,

Which I have made my home.

[caroldantops]

someone explain to me why hanging out w my friends makes me feel so so anxious leading up and during and then once it’s over i feel genuinely awful for no apparent reason and just want to cry it stresses me out sm

[seawitchkaraoke]

context: I have a friend who I think could really benefit from exploring the possibility that she might be autistic bc it would probably help her understand why she reacts certain ways to certain situations and figure out coping mechanisms, but also she doesn't know a lot about neurodivergence so she might also see it as ''something is wrong with you''

her other friends (who are all neurotypical) think we shouldn't tell her and instead slowly push her towards going to therapy in general so maybe she'll get diagnosed then (which.... that could take forever). I think I'd have loved for someone to tell me I had adhd before I found out on my own but I'm not autistic (afaik anyway) and also my experiences aren't universal so..... what do y'all think?

[cryptidapprentice]

im trying dating apps and like,,, idk how to explain that i feel a certain sense of.. immaturity???? compared to the other people in my age range??? like i think maybe it comes from the neurodivergence but like ill look at the profiles of ppl who are my age or like a year or two older or younger and i cant help but feel like we are Not The Same.

[snekdood]

i refuse to let insecure fucks from my home town who are so controlled by their fear of being different make me feel bad or weird existing as i am online. yeah, i did find a place i could express myself freely and people didnt reject me, im sorry you weren’t able to shame me into having 0 friends anywhere, hoping that’d make me become the basic blonde bitch you want me to be

‘tism and not registering tone is going for a meal with a guy, wracking up an 80 quid tab, agreeing to split it 60:40 bc he’s on a living wage and you’re a student, getting home and then about a week (and one realisation later) having to ask your housemate if she thinks he thought it was a date and wanted to fuck.
