Yeah, my personal thing of that nature is "I don't think I'll ever be 100% nonbitter about cis people growing up in a childhood of their preferred gender"
Ill never forget the first time getting on adhd meds and being like "ALL THAT BRAIN FOG AND FORGETTING I WAS DEALING WITH WASNT WHAT EVERYONE DEALS WITH WHAT?!"
Yeah the joy of having my brain work normal will always be cut with that bitterness.
For whatever reason, the sentiment of "brains that work for free" suddenly makes me see dismissive ableism as the neurological/biological equivalent of "Works fine on my machine". Like society is a poorly optimized game that inexplicably hitches like crazy on anything besides an Nvidia.
