every time someone makes a post about how you need to accept people who are weird some genius in the reblogs is always like "ooohhhh well what about the BAD kind of weird should we embrace those Phreaques (tm) with open arms too?" personally i think that if someone's behavior is truly bad then you should be able to come up with a reason for why you think that other than "it's weird." things like abuse and bigotry are not bad because they're "weird," they are bad because they harm and dehumanize other people. in fact, many of these things are systematically enabled as a feature of status quo and not a bug. it is almost like "normal" does not equate to morally correct and adhering to standards of normalcy shouldn't be treated as the metric by which you determine someone's value as a person and that is what people are getting at when they say you need to accept weirdos and not that you have to passively condone everything outside of your moral compass even at its worse and the very fact you are quick to believe the latter is actually what's being implied instead should warrant serious self reflection in terms of how you look at people you believe aren't "normal." or something
when people with "adhd" use stimulants they are stealing resources from people who are just so tired and would like to be awake, people who want to lose a lot of weight at an unhealthy pace, and from people who literally need that medication to write long rants and essays about the world and such. was it worth it? thuis is why there's a shortage it's all thanks to people like you.
I can’t believe “fake gamer girl” was an actual concept guys thought existed literally the most unfuckable guys who have ever lived were convinced girls were faking being interested in loser nerd hobbies to impress them
I will forever respect Animorphs for tricking kids who are just really into animals to read a book series by going “Hey you, you daydream about what it’s like to be a dolphin or a bird or a wolf? Have I got a book for you!” and then slowly radicalizing them with 50+ books of “There are no winners in war. Whatever ‘victory’ you perceive comes at the cost of sacrificing your own morals and killing the part of you that is human. In the end you will resort to murder, torture and war crimes and the knowledge of what you have done will haunt you for as long as you live.”
