i feel like people don't realize that there's no such thing as having "too many labels" because we all actually have roughly the same amount of labels. if you're not autistic, you're allistic. if you're not neurodivergent, you're neurotypical. if you're not queer, you're cishet. if you're not asexual, you're allosexual. if you're not aromantic, you're alloromantic. if you're not trans, you're cis. if you're not intersex, you're perisex. if you're not disabled, you're abled. an autistic, adhd biromantic asexual polyamorous non-binary person has the same amount of labels as an allistic, neurotypical hetero allo monogamous cis person. so if you ever think that you have too many labels, just remember, everyone else has about the same amount as you, so don’t feel bad about picking up a few more for yourself.

[azeler]

They think we have too much labels because they have the privilege to not have to specify theirs.

YOU ARE ALL GENIUSES

[laylainalaska]

While walking the dog yesterday, we found the tracks of a pack of wolves that had passed across the edge of our property. (I live out in the highway in Alaska.) I took a picture of my hand next to a wolf track for comparison. 

Now here’s a picture of my hand with one of our dog’s tracks:

And he’s not an especially small dog; he’s a 55-lb retriever mix.

And the dog’s tracks next to wolf tracks:

Wolves are huge.

[weaselle]

dude, i’m tellin you, for real Sometimes people ask if my klee kai is a wolf, like, seriously. And I’m always like oh no, ha ha he kind of looks like one, though, hunh? But inside I’m always like “uh, my dog weighs thirty pounds, wolves weigh more than me and my dog put together – if he was a wolf you wouldn’t be asking if he was a wolf, you’d be peeing your pants and demanding we leave”

like, a wolf is as tall when lying down as most dogs are standing. here, see for yourself. Labs are a very dog-sized dog, wouldn’t you say? Check this out

(this is a wolf in Alaska that found an unfenced dog park and slowly over the course of months learned how to hang out and have fun with the dogs)

[weaselle]

SO BIG THO - here, have some more examples

[shrewreadings]

I love how wolves & humans - so disparately sized - looked at each other and said, ‘Huh. That looks friend-shaped.’

Things they don’t tell you about top surgery

- Talk to the surgeon about the size you want your new areolas/nipples (don’t be afraid to ask)

- Numbness. No one talks about this for guys who are about to have surgery. You’re going to be numb all in your chest area, especially where the incisions were. They cut nerves as they pass along your chest, and it can take up to a year to regenerate those nerves. Still, feels super foreign for the first two weeks

- Make your bed into a pillow chair, body pillow, two on each side, and two for your head. 

- Sleep alone. I tried to sleep with my girlfriend and it was miserable. You really do need the entire bed for yourself

- Go on Groupon, & get yourself a 10 foot lightning cable iPhone charger, BEST THING EVER, can reach from wherever you are

- Don’t take a week off from work, take two. You will regret the one week, and love the extra time

- When they say “don’t move too much, even after the first week”. LISTEN. I moved way too much and got so sore super quickly. 

- Drink lots of water & eat if your taking the pain medication, otherwise your stomach feels super funky.

- Get stool softeners, & don’t be afraid to take those babies. Don’t wait a week to poop. you’ll surely regret it. 

- The drains are scary & they may hurt while draining or rewrapping your dressings, but once they come out, the second they do, its no more pain, its crazy. 

i hope this helps someone, because i wish i knew all of this when i was having mine a month ago. Looking back its like everyone forgets all the real negatives, its a great experience, & i healed very well & quick compared to most, but the first few days are crazy. They hurt, suck but it gets better. 

[fitness01993]

To the few guys I know having surgery this week!

[sabertoothwalrus]

-the headache you get a couple days after the surgery because the anesthesia is leaving your body hurts 200 times more than the surgery itself. And even that isn’t too bad.

-after a week or, you ITCH. It’s awful. Try not to touch your stitches too much. An ice pack will help.

[mommacomms]

-Tell your surgeon if you have ANY sensitivity to adhesive so they can try to find an adhesive that’s less reactive! The post-op adhesive is very much like Saran Wrap in some cases and it can and WILL cause blisters and blister-related scarring! (EDIT: I know this because I am 7 weeks post-reduction and I have scarring from where they removed the adhesive cause I’m so sensitive to it.)

[froyogotlowbro]

Y’all hate feminine Nb people so much, it’s so obvious

[froyogotlowbro]

Nb person: *wears skirts, has long hair, has large chest, does traditional feminine things*

Y’all: what if… we ignored you… and used incorrect pronouns for you…

[froyogotlowbro]

It’s the same for masculine nb people too… y’all just hate nb people who aren’t androgynous

[froyogotlowbro]

Anyways if ur nb and you don’t dress androgynous, I love you. This goes for he/him nbs who dress feminine and she/her nb who dress masculine as well. Also to gender fluid nb people who only dress one way.

[froyogotlowbro]

i’m seeing a lot of people reblogging suicide hotlines and this is just a reminder that this is a suicide help line that works like a text-based instant messenger for people who may need to talk to someone but have trouble/are uncomfortable making phone calls

[groovian-whovian]

Never don’t reblog this. There are so many people who have such bad anxiety about phone calls. This can save so many lives

white person: *eats chicken tikka masala once* i just…. i feel so connected… to indian culture …. I’m learning to speak islam…. check out my third eye….. chakra

[storybookprincess]

truly begging the internet as a whole to learn the difference between the “oooh i’m not like other girls i’m cool & quirky” mentality & the genuine feeling of being a total outsider among their peers that many young women experience, usually due to holding one or more marginalized identities. like “i don’t fit in with & feel ostracized by the majority of my classmates” is not inherently a pick me thing & we really don’t need to be shaming young women for expressing that they feel this way

[zest-whiplash]

Let me point out the main distinction here: the problem people have with #notlikeothergirls is when it disparages other girls & women. That's why people call that trope internalized misogyny because it ultimately stems from the cultural belief that "conventional feminine behavior" makes you inferior, more stupid, weak, and less deserving to be taken seriously or respected, therefore distancing yourself from "the rest of the pack" will earn you respect because you don't do dumb "girly things". Men have often used this trope, as well, in order to pit girls and women against each other while perpetuating the lie that only things associated with masculinity have value. This trope often overlaps with other sexist tropes like the Cool Girl trope, the Girly Girl, and the Manic Pixie Dream Girl. Take a moment to consider why we have so many disparaging words gendered for women (bimbo, basic, karen, cheugy) while comparatively very few for men. The trope has nothing to do with marginalized identities and genuine self expression, but about pitting women against each other for the sake of misogyny. Yes, express what you need to express! But do not drag other girls and women while you do. That's all it is.

[ti-bae-rius]

THIS. This is the difference. I feel like this is especially prevalent in the autistic community and does my head in.

[thechangeling]

Hurting innocent people intentionally is never ok. But I'm not a fan of shaming traumatized people for still feeling the brunt of their childhoods and reacting to it. I still have a lot of fear surrounding interacting with most women, especially women who are allistic, or straight, or cis, especially all of the above because my autistic disabled nonbinary queer ass suffered a lot of abuse from so-called normal girls.

Having trauma or fear surrounding women doesn't make you a bad person just like having trauma surrounding men doesn't make you a bad person. As long as you don't use it as an excuse to be cruel.

AHHHH  LOVE THAT THEY HAVE BPD

[eggastential-biscuits]

I have three of these

I think

Maybe I have BPD but I can't be sure rn

[krakensdottir]

Oh thank fuck, this is literally the first non-horrible BPD representation I’ve ever seen and it makes me want to cry

[thechangeling]

I get that this is trying to be supportive and positive but it's very much giving allistic performative activism. Like none of these things are actual listed traits of autism in the DSM-5 (and yeah the DSM-5 is problematic) but that still doesn't change the fact most of these things are purely circumstantial based on change, environment and personality. You could meet an autistic person without any of these traits and same goes for ADHD.

Not to mention everyone has such a unique relationship with their neurodiversity that the positives and negatives are going to potentially look different depending on the person.

Tldr: Not every autistic person has these "positive" traits or even necessarily views them as positive. Most of these are purely circumstantial. Correlation is actually not causation.

[phoenix-and-dragon]

This!

Because the 'positive' traits that are listed? Yes they can come from having anxiety. But there is nothing good about it, except for people that are using the person with anxiety. Because they, of course, like it when a person is high-achieving and hard-working, responsible and understanding.

But these traits aren't something that comes along with anxiety, it's a direct product of it. Anxiety makes you act like that because you are constantly anxious! So, in order to avoid anxiety or panic attacks you start to behave 'perfect'.

There are no 'positive traits' of anxiety. Not for someone who has anxiety.

Tldr: 'positive traits' of anxiety are only positive for the people who want something from the person with Anxiety. For someone with Anxiety there are no 'positive traits'

[thechangeling]

So deer have this instinct to stand tall and walk like a king when they notice something (a predator) watching them so they look like strong opponents since predators usually target the weakest members of the herd. The baby is doing the Don't Eat Me Walk.

Predators: “How could I possibly eat someone THAT cool??”

[castingcomets]

There are 3 brands of character songs, any song you associate with a character will fit one or more of these categories:

1. The lyrics fit

2. The song just carries those Character Vibes, often times inexplicably, regardless of lyrics

3. You really liked that song at the same time you liked the character

These are the facts

[ante--meridiem]

4. Exactly one lyric in the entire song fits, but it fits so well you’re going to keep the song anyways

a few reminders because i’m tired and angry

fandom is a hobby, not a form of activism

adult women aren’t inherently creepy for being in fandom and having hobbies apart from raising babies and doing taxes

the vast majority of people pushing back against the worrying trend of instigating harassment over fictional characters and relationships aren’t incest supporters or pedophiles, actually

liking a m/f ship doesn’t make someone a dirty heterosexual invading your space

preferring gay ships doesn’t make you ‘’woke’’ and good

no one owes you a disclaimer that they are a good person who recognizes that their favorite fictional villain’s actions are evil and that they don’t condone those actions irl

liking a fictional villain is in no way comparable to advocating abuse/murder/genocide/etc and you’re a fucking idiot if you believe that

just because a woman is attracted to a fictional villain doesn’t mean she’s promoting toxic relationships or going to end up in a toxic relationship. assuming women can’t tell fiction and reality apart stinks of internalized misogyny 

some rando’s a/b/o fanfics have none of the level of influence that popular tv shows and movies spreading propaganda have

no one owes you a detailed description of their traumas and mental health problems

abusive relationships are not the same as enemies to lovers ships

y’all need to chill the fuck out over people, relationships, actions and events that don’t actually exist and learn how to enjoy and discuss them like normal people

fandom is a hobby, not a form of activism

feel free to add more

[the-rare-bird]

^^^THIS^^^

[chaos-monkeyy]

Adding:

you can’t tell someone’s irl gender, sexuality, or values from what they read, write, and ship

no srsly you can’t, stop that shit
