What is Neurodivergence?
It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
βneurologically atypical patterns of thought or behaviorβ
So, itβs very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
Rules
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!

Why do people have to say "bless you" when someone sneezes? Surely even people who believe in souls don't still think your soul escapes when you sneeze? Why do people even have to comment on normal bodily functions at all? Why is it rude if I don't respond to people responding to me making an ordinary, involuntary bodily noise??? AHHHHHHHHHH
I used to say "don't worry, I'm not superstitious" a lot when people said bless you and just quit because no one thought my actually hilarious joke was funny. π
I think we should do it
I think everyone on hb should be a "gesundtheit" person

I've started saying "nice one" because everyone assumes you said "bless you" so they automatically follow it up with a "thank you" anyway
In Poland we say "Na zdrowie" which literally means "For good health". Even if it's only an allergy, I think it's nice to wish people good health after a sneeze.
I usually say some shit like "I've no use for blessings" lol
gesundheit superiority
Your heart can hiccup/stop if you sneeze hard enough. It's kinda like a "In case you pass out/die". I'm not NT, but I was born, raised, and live in the Southern US. I kinda just autopilot it.
I have often said, "no thank you" or simply "no" in response to that lol
This usually makes me uncomfortable lol
