The Law of Noncontradiction...  This is a term out of philosophy. It may exist in mathematics too, but philosophy is where I found it.

 

In the personal realm of who I am, the law of noncontradiction exists in yet another way. I think I was born with this law in my head, because the ways in which neurotypical people continually contradict themselves, both in their words and in their behavior, has always driven me batshit. This has become even more true as I've gotten older, not less true. I've always felt I was drowning in a sea of neurotypical reversals, absurdities and vacillations. There is no solid ground on which to stand. I found the solid ground with animals.
