"Interpersonal Systemic Shame makes it easy to see people's laziness, sloppiness, or apathy as the source of the problem rather than a consequence of repeated structural failures. Interpersonal Systemic Shame often involves blaming and shaming people who share identities or experiences with us, because they reflect the qualities we've been conditioned to hate in ourselves."

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
"Disability" is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
Just saw a FB post from our local warming station that activates when it gets cold out for the unhoused to go to to be safe from last night. My ex was in one of the photos. She kicked me out and made me homeless for 2 months, so the irony isn't lost. Just not sure how I should feel about it. She's helping people, but I used to think she did this stuff out of the kindness of her heart and now I can't help but think she only does it because she's religious and wants "Jesus points" as my brain has officially dubbed it. That's all. Idk where else I should post this so y'all get it. Hope everyone is doing their best while we wrap up this shitty year.
If you're gonna do something for bad reasons, doing good for bad reasons isn't the worst thing.
This is true lol
but still boooooooooooooo to your ex i hope a booger freezes in her nose
This is oddly vicious, but I support it!
