fucking hate it when i'm reading a fanfic and tim explains to dick what ptsd means as if that man didn't have a degree on psychology by this point GOD an important aspect of dick's character is that he is great at reading people and figuring out their weak points and that he doesn't think manipulating others is wrong as long as it serves the greater good (ring any bells? yeah) i think he fucking knows what gaslighting means anyways stop making dick stupid especially in the emotional intelligence department i'll kill you

I've been seeing this a lot lately, but a little while ago I mentioned something to do with disability in a discord and someone asked me if I was a "spoonie". Not if I was disabled, but a spoonie. I need y’all to fucking get it into ur heads that disabled is not a dirty word. You can use the term spoonie for yourself all you want, but the second you start imposing it on other people and generally using it in place of the word "disabled", its just another woo-woo euphemism that seeks to soften and make comfortable the vocabulary and concept of disability.
Like at a certain point it becomes clear that a lot of people now are using “spoonie” in the same damn way as “differently abled” or "handicapable". The origin and intent of the term become moot within that usage because what it serves to do is invoke disability euphemistically, obfuscating and softening it in service of compulsory normative able-bodymindedness.
If you want to use that term for yourself, fine. Have fun. It doesn't have these same connotations when its used as a self identifier rather than as a replacement for the word "disabled". But stop applying it to others in place of "disabled" I’m so fucking serious.
