There are no disabilities which are raised above ableism. The person in the wheelchair, the autistic person, the person with schizophrenia and the person with an invisible chronic illness may all experience society's ableism in different ways, but none of them can expect to avoid it. So the "you wouldn't say X to Y" advocacy needs to retire yesterday. They say all kinds of ableist shit to all of us and it's time to try out some actual solidarity instead of arguing about who has it slightly worse

my thing with vampires doesn't even have the decency to be one of those childhood obsessions ("I roleplayed warrior cats on the playground and now I have a cat fursona" "I used to think I was a wizard as an undiagnosed nd kid and now I'm all about gandalf big naturals"), this happened to me in my early teens. it's barely even an academic interest, I got there eventually but I had to deliberately shoehorn it into my major. it's not even something respectable like a kink or other sick and twisted sexual perversion. no, this is something far, far worse.
ADHD and autism spectrum is funny in a way that isn't funny. Like hello, welcome to society, your brain is hardwired to function the most efficiently within certain parameters you'll almost never end up in. You're either so good at switching subjects that other people don't enjoy talking with you, or you're so good at sticking to the same subject that other people don't enjoy talking with you. Fuck you and good luck.
don't forget to let your vampire alters stay up all night, lurk in the shadows, and drink cherry koolaid
