Recently, there has been an annoying trend of people in my surroundings using the term "overstimulated". This has also been present on social media, which is likely why it's seeping into physical spaces. I always get confused why these terms are used, when there are already perfectly good terms that are better fitting for neurotypical folk. Of course, you cannot always tell if someone is neurotypical or not. I just find it so interesting why people(particularly white allistic people) feel the urge to enter other spaces belonging to marginalized groups. It reminds me a bit of last year when people were calling autistic people "acoustic". And of course, many terms from black culture have been rebranded as "gen z slang". Do you use any of these terms? Should they be shared? The majority of the time, these words have context the people using them don't understand.
