I keep meaning to link this essay whenever someone in this thread brings up trans stuff and cults:

https://newthoughtcrime.com/

It's a long read, but a good one. One of the few things I've read that accurately captures what being inside trans circles feels like whilst you're stuck in there.

also recommending this. i read the whole thing in one sitting just now. fantastic and accurate.
(women will get more out of this than men, but if you're interested in the topic, give it a go.)

I'm not even sure Clownie could accurately define half of the terms he throws about. None of them can, really. Because most of it is made up bullshit that continues to be tweaked in real time to fit whatever argument they are trying to make.

Well, some of it had meanings before they forgot words have, in fact, meanings.

With clowntown, I'm betting it's the latter. Therapists can have a hell of a lot easier a time with their patients educating themselves on what the mentally ill are spouting on social media, but expecting them to be taught that shit in university is absurd. I don't blame them for having to ask what "stimmies" means. That sounds like baby talk coming from a 30 year old.

"Stimmies" sounds like "Hi I am a drug-seeker, give me nothing and find an excuse to kick my junkie ass out."

“Get pregnant on a lark” — Not really surprising at this point but Kevin is revealing he does not understand how getting pregnant works whatsoever, and his fetishes are just based on shit he saw in anime or movies. Women are only fertile like 3 days a month and even when timed correctly, the chance of pregnancy is only 20-30%. Also something like 1 in 5 pregnancies end early on (ectopic, chemical, or other kinds of miscarriage). It’s not something that just happens for funsies.

Oh god, I shouldn’t have mentioned ectopic pregnancies and such, wait a day or two and Kevin is going to be hnngrrr>_<ing over them next

I think it's less 'shit he saw in anime or movies' and more just your standard sex pest mentality on pregnancies... Just suggest she can get an abortion when she says she doesn't wanna fuck you on the off chance she gets knocked up with your hereditarily-defective spawn! That'll make her totally want to jump on your dick!

...What really got me is that that suggestion came after I'd pointed out I was jailbait.

I regret to inform you that, in many places, there aren't even licensing bodies to regulate who can become a therapist. Even when there are, you usually need a psych undergrad (or something you can vaguely claim is equivalent) and then like a year or so of postgraduate study; it's unusual for therapists to have a doctorate unless they're some kind of half-retired psych academic who wants an easy job listening to sad rich people whine. It's tragically extremely easy to become a therapist if you're a moron.

Clinical psychiatrists do require a doctorate, but in many places, literally anybody can set up shop as a therapist.


"Stimming" is short for "self-stimulatory behaviour"; it does in fact refer to performing repetitive motions, alongside a range of other self-soothing behaviours, and it's not unique to autism (some behaviours regular people do, like drumming fingers or playing with their hair, technically falls under self-stimulatory behaviour), though you're correct in that dipshits on tiktok like to do stupid fucking dances and pretend that's 'stimming' as opposed to attention whoring. It's commonly used even in academic literature, and if you're a therapist then you should either know the term, or should realise instantly what it's referring to with minimal explanation. If Wedge's therapist needed extensive education on this, then either the therapist is a retard, Wedge is using a retarded definition for it, or Wedge is lying.

"Overstimmed" is a stupid way of saying overstimulated. Autistic people of all "levels" of autism, including very high-functioning ones, can get overstimulated; even regular-passing autistic people can have shutdowns (i.e. they stop functioning as a human) or meltdowns (i.e. looks like a temper tantrum). Again, people who are non-autistic can get these, too - usually people with ADHD/other brain issues, or kids, but even regular people. Again, unless the therapist is a retard or Wedge is using a dumb definition, the therapist should really know what "overstimulated" means or looks like.

Spoon Theory is actually generally well-known by therapists ime, and can in some circumstances be very useful to describe the difference between "tired because I didn't get enough sleep" and "tired because I have depression and it's sucking my soul and ability to force myself to do stuff into a black hole"; as with every useful psych / mental health / abuse term, however, the internet has done its best to grind it into meaningless dust.

Alters are a load of heaping internet crap though. Even in "proper" DID, they're kind of up for debate.

Welcome to why there's an ongoing effort to make therapist a protected profession!

re: Wedge and Stimming: If you're betting on 'therapist is a retard' that's...probably a poor choice. Stimming is actually one of the symptoms that can tell you early if somebody's got autism; dev psych included a video of a toddler stimming, taken by somebody who's a specialist in autism and happened to be the kid's parent shooting a cute Baby's First Beach Trip video. (Clearly, a mad scientist.)

On #2+3. You're going to also leave many a therapist going "Oh, you're one of those Tumblrina munchies" at those two--I've not seen 'overstimmed' outside out those circles--and that's going to pretty much speed up in many a practice nobody wanting you around. Once you've done that? The instant they've got an excuse they'll leave your ass out on the curb beside the trashcan. (Especially if you've got anybody there for whom Spoon Theory actually applies. Which makes sense: If you only have so much of a limited resource...why spare it for assholes, especially asshole munchies who are fucking your life over for shits and giggles?)

That's also pretty much exactly why 'cultural competency' is being used. That is definitely a "We don't have any Tumblrinas or Wokeandians on staff, nor anybody willing to bother trying to understand/tolerate that massive load of bullshit," but put in a way that's not going to get you into trouble.

Wedge's deafness is really intresting to me. I just don't understand why he's so desperate to have it. Does his state have really good disability checks for deaf people or something? Or is it purely for clout?

He's got family members who were involved in the deaf community, either via religious outreach or as sign language translators for medical stuff (post about it). My personal guess is he's got auditory processing issues and/or tinnitus (he's only specifically claimed tinnitus), and he's also a munchie and/or desperate for attention and latched onto a community slash disorder he already knew some stuff about because of his family.

So named because, much like the amhole, it's less 'penetration' and more 'uselessly trying to wedge the dilator inside'.

My point was more "stimming"/"the concept of being overstimulated, especially in autism" is like... pretty basic psych stuff. I'm tiptoeing around powerlevelling here + don't want to shit up the thread, but unless you've got a very incompetent therapist it just seems unlikely they'd take on an autistic client and not know about these concepts, even if they didn't know the words; like even if they said "what's overstimmed?", you'd say "when it's too bright and noisy and there's too many people, my brain shuts off" and it'd be like, ah yes, autistic shutdown due to overstimulation, got it. But yeah, given what we already know of my assumption was "Wedge is using retarded definitions and/or lying". (Though tbf I've come across some truly useless therapists in my time.)

Kevin is the more interesting cow because his E-dopmaine addiction has made him completely unlearn all his social filters. But I think Wedge, by far, would actually be the worst of all the Am ranchers to know.

Just seems like all the worst combinations thrown into one. Delusional narc, always broke, talentless, low IQ, munchie, whiner, revolting apparel, low empathy. Literally nothing redeeming. Kevin might actually be too good for him.

Yeah I'd put Wedge on par with Josiebean, the unhinged trancher most likely to murder someone. Penny and Benny at least actually do work and are not lazy, while Kev and Norintha are far too weak, cowardly and lazy to assault or hurt someone irl. But Wedge and Josie are so delusional and so absolutely devoid of empathy they look like shit even among fellow tranchers. Maybe they'll end up dating!

Oh, definitely, 'stimming' is standard, you'd have seen in in dev psych and known to be something you should be concerned if you see it even in an infant. But you've hit the nail on the head when you've said Wedge is a munchie; he doesn't even seem to have much respect for the Deaf community because if you're around them even peripherally, you don't confuse 'cannot hear' with 'auditory processing issues' with 'tinnitus.' There's a reason the Deaf community has a Community Watch thread here...

But what I was getting at is that the second term is pretty much a red flag that you've got a munchie, and the way Wedge and Kev and company use 'spoons' is at least a sign of a Cluster B annoyance if not a munchie. I mean, I've seen ordinary people get overstimulated because sensory chaos--but you're still not gonna see 'overstimmed' because I wasn't kidding about not having seen it used outside of the Tumblrina-originating self-diagnosed/Munchie scene. But their misuse/abuse of Spoon Theory is going to be annoying at best if you know somebody who has a chronic condition limiting their ability to do shit. (Fully agree on the truly useless therapists, I think it's in part a side effect of the base degree being a default degree--note my suspicion that if Kev had made it to college, he'd have been working his ass off to get those Cs in the default degree picked for him. He'd probably be one of those truly useless therapists.)

I think the thing with Wedge isn't just that he's all of that, but his method of trying to distract people from it is pretty much 'dress it up as a clown.'

I mean, Kev's got most if not all of that checklist, but I agree that he's unlearned all those social filters because he's a junkie for asspats, pretty much: He has just enough awareness to know what needs to be hidden if he wants to keep getting his asspats and how to hide it just well enough for that. If nothing else, because it's going to cause him to stop getting asspats if he lets it show.

Wedge? Wedge puts clown makeup on it and thinks clown magic will make it disappear or something. I don't know, and I'm not being paid enough to figure it out--something I'm sure his therapists also had decided when they chucked him out.
