Cat: A nuclear lab isn't even in the right field to make human-animal hybrids.

Cat: we don't really get this? But that's mostly on account of having internalized our role as a social wrecking ball. We will follow our trajectory, unyielding, and all the NTs are just going to have to deal with it.

Just: In my personal experience from way back when? Being such a terrifyingly violent little shit that no-one wants to risk setting you off may have its drawbacks, but it damn well works at getting bullies to knock it off. But being terrifyingly violent doesn't mean you need to be an asshole when not provoked.

Just: I'm in the latter category, but that's because I'm an avid pedestrian who's been almost run over FAR too many times.

Cat: If someone can't be trusted to treat an adopted kid right, they can't be trusted to treat any kid right. End of story.

Cat: They shouldn't even be allowed access to the children they do make themselves.

Just: I am a specific process running on our brain.

Cat: The downvotes only prove my point about undeserved stigma.

 

Cat: So, for clarity, I'm one of thirteen people co-habitating in this brain. There's a lot of stigma associated with anything but a monolithic consciousness, but it's really undeserved. Just having someone else along for the ride doesn't mean you're going to lose your grip on reality or anything of the sort.

Cat: Heck, it doesn't even take trauma to pluralize; I'm a mental construct that Just made on purpose out of loneliness. ~~And subsequently fell in love with.~~

Just: incandescent blush

Cat: There are some mental disorders involving plurality, with DID being the archetypal example. However, in those cases the actual problems aren't the extra people; memory barriers, troublesome internal communications, and involuntary switches are far more problematic, most of the time.

Cat: As for persecutors? The interpersonal conflicts with them can be resolved, one way or another. A lot of the time they're just hurting and don't know healthy ways to deal with it.

Cat: So... yeah I don't really have any good ideas for how to end this post.

I'm not sure what she expected to happen?
