Tuberculosis is both a form and an expression of global injustice: A disease that has been curable since the mid-1950s is nonetheless the world's deadliest infectious disease in 2024.
If you think “narcissistic abuse” is real, listen up.
As a narcissist, if someone opens up to you about having npd DO NOT say any variation on “but you’re such a good person!!”. Not only is this invalidating their struggles but it’s clearly telling them that you equate their disorder with being a bad person. If the only way you can accept someone with a personality disorder is through disbelief and denial you’re not accepting shit. I’m so sick of being treated like I’m confessing to a murder even by mental health professionals whenever I bring up that I have NPD. People with cluster B disorders are exponentially more likely to be victims of abuse than perpetrators, and NPD has the highest suicide rate. More than BPD, yes that’s right. Even with this statistic, the stigma around the disorder is so bad that in the rare moments when it’s even brought up people treat it like we’re just getting what we deserve for being evil. Like us killing ourselves is doing the world a favour. It’s so disgusting and it’s got to stop. Y’all are all for supporting neurodivergent girlies and caring about mental health until it’s too challenging to your biased worldview and we notice. I promise we notice all of that shit and it has an effect.
I love you narcissists, I love you psychopaths, I love all you beautiful people who are different in ways people find too scary to give compassion to, I love you people who feel no empathy and people with thoughts they don’t want and people who overreact to small things and people who can’t form relationships. I love you all and I promise there is a place in this world for you. You are not worthless, you are not a burden and you are not evil. I love you.

No hate towards anybody who's not an asshole, but I find it so funny that the tag I use to help me write the queer villain of my smutty fan-fic is also the one where the "loving" and "kind" Christians " express their shock because atheists don't want innocent people to be tortured for eternity but then also don't want convicted murderers and pedophiles getting into Heaven because they said the magic words right before they died. What a contradiction! Don't you know that anyone who doesn't believe in God is literally Hitler?
I wish humans could vibrate when we're really stressed to relieve pressure. Like, you know when you're feeling really anxious and you really want to scream but you can't because you're in a public place and the inability to express your stress makes or remove yourself from the situation causes more stress? All of this could be solved if we could shake ourselves so hard that we forgot what was making us anxious for a precious thirty seconds.
