A short while ago “spoons theory” discourse was common online, now understanding of mental health issues has regressed to “Being disabled means you can never do something, if you can do it once then you’re not disabled”
Since this person was brave enough to speak up I thought I'd throw in one of my experiences too.
A couple years back I had a coworker who always seemed to be on my case/micromanage me, but when other coworkers made the same 'mistake' I did
Non-autistic people are yelling about how distressing it is to witness an autistic person having a public meltdown without taking a single moment to consider how distressing it is to be an autistic person who is having a public meltdown.
This was done inside a student residence. Security blocked students and staff from accessing their own homes for this event. The water used came from the residences. During the 40°C heatwave, students couldn't access their own park to cool off or their homes to escape the heat
This man just tinkering away by himself in a studio in the Netherlands and keeping his krabby patty formula a secret from the jewellery world is so hilarious actually. Nobody really knows how he puts that diamond there (and no it’s not claws or prongs).
my best friend growing up was chronically late but she was a joy to be around & I liked her as a person so we just made it work. told her an earlier time or I left later. I knew if I showed up “on time” to her house I’d be watching her get ready but that was fun too
@meowingabyss so what do you expect to be done about it? people should always expect you to be extremely late? or just suck it up just because? this is a genuine question. i want to understand what you want to happen in these situations where other people are involved
a boundary isn’t telling people what to do. a boundary you set is “if they’re late again i won’t invite them anymore” it’s up to you to uphold that. if you keep inviting them despite them being late that’s You disrespecting your boundary
@meowingabyss once you continue to disrespect this boundary i have set up regardless of the reason im going to start seeing you in a different light which ultimately is going to make you look like a bad person to me. thsts just how i see it though n i want to know how u view it

I find it funny how twitter users want to convince themselves so badly that this site isn’t as bad as tiktok or instagram as if this app doesn’t have literal nazis that have 1M followers and people making posts saying how annoying mentally ill people are gaining 20k likes
I get the weird looks for wearing an N95 even working in a healthcare setting. It puts me in the position where I either have to out myself as disabled/high risk + open the door for discrimination from my employer or just accept that coworkers will assume I’m a hypochondriac
can't get over how pathetic the anti-WFH agitprop is. Serious professionals pretending like your mental health is in jeopardy from not going to the office is ironically and legitimately unwell behavior. They want you to suffer for their inability to act like a real human being
I still remember hearing a mother say "i'd rather my daughter have cancer than sleep around" in regards to the vaccine. These people literally thought the vaccine was going to turn their daughters into whores, which would be worse than them dying from cancer. Insane.
