curiosity overrode sense and i clicked on this ad i've been getting here... stuffed animals themed per diagnosis / gender / astrology sign / "love" for some reason? illness as identity is kinda fucked up sigh- i try to push back against my own tendency to do this, but like, culturally this seems like a bad trend

A screenshot of an online store page displaying four plush rabbit toys, each labeled with a specific identity or diagnosis. The products include a 'Dissociation Rabbit', an 'LGBTQIA Bunny', a 'Dissociative Identity Disorder' rabbit, and a 'Pansexual Rabbit'.

The image shows a yellow and blue plush bunny with a winking face, a red star on its forehead, and a smiley and frowny face on its feet, set against a star-patterned background. Below the main image are smaller thumbnail views of the product and its price.
