My Classmate Said That Blind People Can't Be In Science Because They "can't Read Graphs." I Responded

Ok tell me this people, how do I explain to people that being infantilized is really disrespectful and upsetting? Every time I try everyone tells me "how is looking young for your age is not a compliment?" And I can't tell them it's not the same as infantilization and the latter actually feels very demeaning.

"Villain era," I hiccup between sobs as I'm forced to assert basic boundaries for my mental well being.

sitting around in total silence and out of nowhere saying "oh that reminds me" in reference to a full blown conversation ongoing in your own head

A few days ago I came across a video that really resonated with me and I can’t find it but what was said is stuck in my head.

“My whole personality was being smart and then one day I wasn’t ”

I was always just the smart and nerdy kid and after the pandemic, and everything else that happened to me, I ended up failing exam after exam. And with that title of smart being gone I’ve come to realise I never developed an actual personality.

I would like to wish everyone an uneventful new year

my mom didn't believe in lying to children so when I first asked about santa claus as a small child she was like "oh santa claus is another name for a man named saint nicholas who lived a long time ago. he was a very kind and generous man and he loved giving people presents and he would do things like put presents in people's stockings when they were hung up to dry by the fire, so they would find them and be surprised. so now when we give presents at christmas it's fun to pretend saint nicholas or 'santa claus' brings them. and we hang up stockings by the fire and when we get up in the morning there are presents in them, just like if saint nicholas was still alive to bring them!"

so that thanksgiving one of my uncles said jovially "so mac, are you being good for santa claus?" and little (not quite three year old) mac looked up and raised an eyebrow and said witheringly "he's dead."
