What does "neurodiversity" even mean?
There's confusion online. Has neurodiversity lost all meaning? What even is a "neurotypical"? Aren't we all a little "neurodivergent"? And is the "neurodiversity movement" romanticizing debilitating conditions?

Talking about what I mean when I use the terms, "Neurodiversity", "neurodivergent" & "neurotypical" - discussing what these words mean as well as the usefulness of vague concepts.
These can be confusing words if you're new to this space, and I believe that we should have patience for people who use words like neurodivergent wrong. However, I have little patience for people who say "this word has lost all meaning" when really, they just don't really understand it.
