cw uncensored ableist slur

remembering the kids in elementary school who used to call me “fat gay and stupid” in that order, which is still scarily spot on
coping with humor aside, being called that last word (and other more explicit slurs) really fucked with my neurodivergent baby self, like on a very deep level, and the internalized ableism from that is something i’m still struggling with to this day. uh is this still relatable
anyway if u wanna learn more about the impact of ableist language and probably learn something new, check out this fantastic thread by my lovely friend Lex https://twitter.com/lexthequeer/status/1316791280202997762
