Re. mixing intoxicants: If you’re more drunk than stoned, you’re droned. If the other way around, you’re strunk. Either way, as long as you know which one you are, you shouldn’t operating a motor vehicle but just may be a bangin’ conversationalist at the moment. #OCD #SlangNazi

leftist spaces need to have a serious reckoning with their ableism—especially toward cluster b disorders.
it’s not just individual ignorance. it’s a pattern.

you say you're trauma-informed, but pathologize anyone with intense emotions or attachment wounds. you say “abolish the carceral state,” but you socially exile people with bpd or npd like it's justice. you preach “community care,” but treat certain neurodivergent people as disposable.

this isn’t healing. it’s scapegoating.
and it mirrors the same systems we claim to fight.

if you're serious about solidarity, you need to unlearn the reflex to demonize people just because their symptoms look messy, threatening, or unfamiliar. start interrogating where your language comes from—why does “narcissist” live in your insult toolkit? why is “toxic” your go-to label when someone is dysregulated or in pain?

stop centering comfort over care. real community means making space for people who challenge your assumptions—not just the ones who fit neatly into your idea of “safe.”

cluster b folks aren’t the enemy. we are already in your spaces. we’ve just learned to mask, hide, shrink. because we know what happens if we don’t.

you want to build something liberatory? include us.
because if your vision for justice doesn't include cluster b folks, it’s just another hierarchy dressed in radical clothes. - Anarchist Jew (on Facebook)

So, given that we suspect our #autistic 8yo is #OCD as well as #PDA, and every service/waiting list/alleged professional that could help has thus failed to meet or accommodate us: how long on average until one of us gets arrested, sectioned, or hospitalised?

I just wanna know what to expect, for once.
