personal abusee experience, re: some idle thoughts on social boundaries
I can tell you with years of experience in multiple abusive and manipulative relationships that the more you normalize this for yourself, the better off you are and the the better off others are.
Don't let yourself get sucked into feeling like if you leave you're hurting someone, or that if you stand your ground you're being irritating. If you *ever* feel either of those things in a relationship when setting a boundary for yourself, *please* understand that's the definition of abusive behavior. Folks who get better will accept they have done wrong and want to change and create solutions together. Abusers will double down and make you feel like you're the problem. Abusers will see that you are giving them chances and use that to continue their abuse rather than change. If there is no repercussion, why should they stop?
Normalize removing people from your life that harm you. You are doing them a service.

DEATH IS NOT AN OPTION. FAILURE IS.
ACCEPT THAT YOU WILL FAIL. ACCEPT THAT YOU WILL TRIUMPH. THE TWO WERE ALWAYS INSEPERABLE.

Since it's tax season in the US, here's this, for plurals who wish they could claim their syskids as dependents or think their in-house relationships should allow them to file jointly.
Form 1040-MPD
Certain deductions are available for those who qualify as multiple in the current tax year. Deductions will reduce your taxable income or increase your refund even if it exceeds your income. To qualify, you must pass the following screening test.
1. Singlets with mood swings do not qualify, even if you have been accused of multiplicity. Systems with coocurring mood swings should complete form 1098-BPD and attach it to their form 1040.
2. You qualify if you agree that you are plural, even if some of you do not admit it, or if some of you agree but others do not but would admit it if they did, or all of you agree to disagree. If you understand this statement, you automatically qualify and may proceed.
Exemptions
____Claim the number of dependents in your system here.
____Stand back and let the independents claim themselves here.
____Total: Add this number to the total exemption in form 1040.
DEDUCTIONS
____Enter all the costs of therapy sessions, including transportation, bandaids, each members' wardrobes, cost of therapy and value of your time in training your therapist.
____Check here if you would like these expenses deducted from your income and added to the income of your perpetrator(s).
____Check here if you think the perpetrator(s) should be audited by the IRS. If it turns out they owe additional funds to the IRS, where should we send you the check?
____Add five cents deduction for every time you have heard or read "syscourse" this year.
____TOTAL: Subtract this amount from the income portion of your form 1040.
so what happened last time is that I used it in a post, someone who's black said "this word is a racist dogwhistle," and I learned about it then and haven't used it since. and then a bunch of white folks we don't federate with anymore said "no it's not" or "that doesn't matter" and made a big Thing out of it rather than just finding a better word to use
