actually i think its horrendous how the word delusional has been co-opted & watered down (especially to the term "delulu") by ableminded & sane people to mean "thinking your crush likes you back!!!!!!" when actual delusional psychotic & schizophrenic people are treated like absolute shit and are constantly being thrown under the bus even in mental health communities and people act like we just killed their entire family in front of them when we even mention our mental state.
This whole obsession with wheelchair users struggling on foot down the aisle at their wedding or across the stage for graduation is 100% powered by ableism.
(tiniest little mouse voice you could ever imagine) we're gonna take a step back ok. 1! 2! 3! back up...!

[ Link to survey ]
The 11th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 13th June 2024.
It’s short and easy, about 5 minutes probably.
After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.
If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful - it’s what helped us get 40,000 responses last year.
Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com
The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.
For the curious, you can also spy on some graphs and demographic data for the incoming responses here.
Thank you so much!

When disabled people say they cannot do something
Your response should not be to give them advice/solutions.
Your response should be to respect that "can't" and not ask them to do that thing again.
We've already tried everything, and we know more than you ever will.
