They aren’t allowed to get angry when people bully them because by reacting people believe they justify the abuse. They are forced to deal with adult situations often without support from any of the actual adults around them. When they look for leaders in their community they often find no one who is like them and are left with only scraps of representation in media to look to. And they don’t have the support system they deserve, the support system heterosexual/romantic cisgender kids are given without question. They are forced to hide parts of themselves from their family members and we pretend that it is normal. And if they decide to discuss that particular part of their identity it is picked apart and examined often before the kid even knows how to process it themselves. Their own identities is branded as “too adult” for them when it is not their identities that is too adult, but how we treat them once we are informed of these parts of their identities.
Queer kids deserve so much better than they are given.

PSA: “Healthier” does not mean low calorie, low fat, low sugar, low carb. Healthier does not mean less. Healthy is relative to each person’s needs.
Also, guilt-free is not a description for food. Guilt is not an ingredient; it is a feeling. No matter how many ingredients or calories you remove from that food, the guilt is in your mind, not the food.
I won’t stop reblogging this.
I have to remind myself of this continually. That other people’s definitions of “healthier” are often the polar opposite to what “healthier” needs to mean for me.
Well, on one hand I’m glad I hadn’t managed to get to sleep yet before that notification showed up, because I really want that package and wasn’t expecting it until after the weekend.
OTOH, I am exhausted and that means setting an alarm for about 2 hours. Again.
(Also hoping it will come earlyish so I can get back to bed pretty quickly, but we’ll see. At least there is the working doorbell again.)
Well, I just finally got that package!
Saturday I managed to doze off waiting–probably not long before they came, going by the tracking page. So they didn’t ring the bell then 😬 (I was right next to one receiver, and it definitely would have woken me up. It was also working later in the day.)
Anyway, the earliest redelivery with Royal Mail is 2 business days. This morning I did thankfully get more sleep beforehand, but I haven’t even sat down just in case 🙄
Tunglr anti-ableism Discourse is fighting the stereotype that neurodivergent/mentally ill people are abusive, manipulative, dangerous, and/or just plain assholes by telling people that it’s Neurotypical, Karen, to expect us to be anything other than abusive, manipulative, dangerous, and/or just plain assholes
