âYou shouldnât self-ID as ADHD/autistic, youâre turning a very real mental condition into a trendâ Ok then stop saying delulu. Stop speculating on which cluster C personality disorder the criminals you hear about on the news have. Stop saying âschizopostingâ and âacousticâ and âis it restarted?â Stop using âpsycopathâ and âsociopathâ as catch-all ways of calling someone a bad person. Stop saying âthe intrusive thoughts wonâ when you bleach your hair and then turn your nose up at people who suffer from very real, very scary urges of physical/sexual violence. Stop saying âIâm so OCDâ as a way of calling yourself neat. Stop treating BPD/ASPD/Bipolar as inherently abusive. Stop saying âOP I am living in your wallsâ without tagging for unreality. Stop diagnosing complete strangers youâve never met on r/AITA with NPD.
You first. If you donât want our disabilities to be treated like trends then stop belittling and minimising them. Iâll NEVER judge a person for trying find labels for their symptoms when an apathetic, racist, sexist, ableist healthcare system refuses to. But I will absolutely judge a hypocrite. Which a lot of you are
when you apply for your villain license they give you a book of all the new words youâre allowed to say. itâs full of shit like âfoibleâ and âmachinationsâ
my prof just explained on the syllabus that heâs included more pionts in the class than we needed to pass, so we could skip up like?? 20 small assignments/quizzes/participation!! and still get a very high grade!!
the idea was that we could focus on assignments that played to our strengths - only do the participation stuff if we like to talk out loud - only do the quizzes/readings if we want to do the class remotely - only do online discussions if we like to talk and share opinions but struggle with anxiety in class ect.
and thatâs cool enough but then he pulled up DnD character sheets with drawings heâd done of these hypothetical student player classes and how our various accessibility needs could be gamified to âmax outâ different aspects of the class to get high grades and like!!!!!
hell yeah!!!! letâs treat accessibility in higher education not just as a necessity but as the fun, engaging, and creative aspect of learning that it is!!! I love this!!
