Periodic Reminder That It Costs Zero Dollars And Zero Cents To Not Use The Words Psychotic, Psycho, Schizophrenic,

periodic reminder that it costs zero dollars and zero cents to not use the words psychotic, psycho, schizophrenic, schizo, insane, or delusional to mean derogatory things

no, that alt right person is not “psychotic” for being racist and having racist beliefs. you can be racist without having psychosis. it’s not mental illness causing these beliefs, it’s just hatred and bigotry.

no, that person advocating to repeal the medical rights of trans people is not “delusional/deluded”. you can be transphobic without experiencing delusions. it’s not a mental illness that causes these beliefs, it’s just hatred and bigotry.

no, that person supporting israel is not “insane” for justifying and supporting genocide. you can support genocide without having a severe mental illness. it’s not mental illness that causes these beliefs, it’s cruelty and hatred.

just find a different word. it is not that difficult. what IS difficult is living with psychosis, especially when it is stigmatized day in and day out. when we equate medical conditions with moral standing or worth, that’s eugenics.

i wish nothing but peace and love on everyone including those who have used these terms in the past, present and future, but i am tired.

there are so many good posts making good points that fall short because they use terms relating to psychosis to indicate moral failing.

psychosis. is. not. morally. corrupt.

STOP equating psychosis with bigotry, hatred, and cruelty.

note. people without psychotic symptoms are encouraged to reblog this. i am not going to do more than my share of the work to educate non-psychotics when i’m struggling with my own symptoms. thank you.

; I've actually been wondering this !! Very helpful :D /gen

wait so

is mogai like another lgbt acronym?? just that??

and what exactly is exorsexism??

; I saw this image in my gallery randomly that I'd saved ages ago and like. Genuinely cried trying to read it for embarrassingly long.

; because in my head " police arrested scam artist questioning the police John Young, who tricked discovered that John has a people into buying some criminal record, being sort of a substance which arrested for the same himself named it " The Elixir felony in 2004, 1965, 1923 of immortality " Upon and 1866 " made sense. Right.

; the earrings look so cool what !! My birthday + my mums birthday is coming up soon, and we both love these sorts of jewelry and like I'd also be supporting a small business without spending every penny I have hsvsgsvsg !?? ( will be buying from here soon hopefully !! :D )

Wanna get some cool & cheap earrings, AND help a young artist get out of their overdraft after Uni?? AND GET A FREE HEADSHOT with every purchase too?? Then you should check out my partner's etsy, the Emerald Warren!

As mentioned, all purchases go to getting them out of their overdraft, and if you send me a reciept I'll draw you a free headshot (or equivalent to how much you spent), examples of my work here!

; I can't believe I have to say this but pride flags are not exclusively a LGBTQIA+ thing. They're pride flags, they're for showing pride of who you are or about something ( like a disability, etc ) that is apart of you or significant to a community. Especially real for minorities that are often forgotten or discriminated against !!

; I'm saying this because someone on Tiktok posted an intro and included the disabled pride flag ( along with some other pride flags ) and someone asked what it meant, and when told by a few people that it was the disabled pride flag, their response was literally " the lgbt is getting out of hand. What are you, attracted to disabilities ?? Or what you want to be disabled ?? " like no. The lgbtqia+ was literally not mentioned once. It's a pride flag, but not necessarily a pride flag meant to represent an lgbtqia+ identity. Thank you.

; the flag in question was this btw

; image description begin: the disabled pride flag. A grey rectangle with the colours green, light blue, white, yellow and desaturated red going vertically from the top left to the bottom right of the flag. :image description end

happy pride to fat femmes, trans femmes, hairy femmes, femmes who aren't women, 'ugly' femmes, femmes who don't care about their appearance, femmes who are mentally ill, femmes who are disabled, femmes with anger issues, femmes with psychosis, intersex femmes, chronically ill femmes, femmes who work "masculine" jobs, femmes with facial hair, femmes who work out or are body builders, femmes who don't dress or present feminine, and every femme who doesn't fit into the very narrow idea folks have of what a femme person "should" be like or gets told they are not feminine enough- you deserve to celebrate, too!
