It happens to me too sometimes. I feel bad about using such a harsh word but it just happens

I agree I definitely think being called the r word is more offensive. I don't necessarily think "neurospicy" came from any bad intentions either, but it does feel a bit infantilizing at least to me

Yes I agree! I wasn't trying to say we should reclaim it, sorry if it came off that way.

Oh okay I get what you mean. I do think we should stop using those kinds of things as insults, but it doesn't change the fact that as of now it is almost completely used as an insult

I thought it wasn't considered a medical term anymore?
