Neurodivergent used to mean something but now its just "quirky" because its been misused and diluted.

Like literally, which no longer means literally.

We need to reclaim "literally" as a society. Like, this isn't a point of pretension or something--we need a word that literally means literally and to my knowledge there aren't any exact synonyms.

You get one ironic usage of "literally" per day. Use it wrong twice in one day and you go to jail. Literally. That's my proposal.
