#ableist jokes

[the-bren-system]

Just wanna say if you're one of the singlets defending pissvortex rn after the insensitive prick was repeatedly making blatant mockeries of traumagenic systems, particularly age-differentiated alters and alters with noticeable traits / mannerisms, and referring to alters as "multiple personalities" then refusing to correct this language...

Maybe reconsider. Maybe some people shouldn't have a platform especially when they make cruel jokes at the expense of disabled MINORS. Literally mocking systems as young as 8th graders???? What the fuck.

I like some aspects of my job but I’m going to be glad to get away from the ‘triggered’ jokes and my coworkers using the word ‘triggered’ whenever they are mildly inconvenienced

im sorry to tell you this but 'discord light theme users don't interact' post is making fun of a pedophile apologist stim blogger who made a 'everyone feel free to interact' banner to mock minors using 'ddlg/kink blogs don't interact' banners. it's not aphobic. it has nothing to do with ace discourse. i'm so sorry to tell you this.

Ah, cool, thanks for the background info on how that bullshit became a meme.  I obviously didn’t know how it came to be, but ableists are gross and aphobes are gross, so whatcha gonna do…

So it’s based on something that was shitting on stim blogs, and it’s still using it in a manner in which it is not respecting stim blogs putting on their posts the people that trigger or upset them.  Like, when stim blogs put those “don’t interact” banners on their posts it’s because they would likely be triggered if those people did interact with them, and there have definitely been aphobes shitting on the fact that aphobes are included on some of them.

I don’t get how this is a joke.  Can you explain the humor?

My 'friend' made fun of my shower chair and I feel like she was doing it good-naturedly but it still struck a nerve with me. I told her it was inappropriate to joke about and she said I'm just being too sensitive and won't stop. Am I wrong to want her to? :s

It sounds like your friend is being a jerk. You explained that you didn’t want her to say things like that and she should have respected your wishes. I’m sorry that she can’t see that what she said was not okay. Sometimes abled people can get defensive when they get called out, so I hope that she comes around eventually and stops making comments like that. Still, you’re not wrong to be upset with her.

Also shower chairs are awesome. I’m only going to be able to shower tonight because I have one. Your friend doesn’t know what she’s missing.
