eden/aster | plural system | he/they | 18

pfp by me :)
Hey! We are Eden/Aster (just pick one), a plural system just here to have some fun. We are bodily 18 (April 2), and our collective pronouns are he/they. We have around 40 headmates and an unknown, very large amount of fragments. You can see brief intros for our most frequent fronters below the cut.
Collectively, we are transmasc nonbinary and Chinese.
If you know who's fronting, refer to them by their name and pronouns. If you are unsure, please ask.
Our current main interests are Outer Wilds and Rain World, and we also enjoy ULTRAKILL, ISAT, Persona 5, Cookie Run Kingdom, UTDR, geckos and reptiles of any kind, Rain World, Nine Sols, Minecraft, Celeste, Ace Attorney, Hermitcraft, Life Series, Cult of the Lamb, and probably more things that I can't currently recall. Oh, also we will be annoying about our beautiful darling girlfriend on occasion.
Feel free to use our art for anything that is non-commercial or related to generative AI, as long as you credit us.
We run @i-highly-geckommend and will reblog photos of reptiles and geckos. Please block the tags of any reptile you don't want to see.
DMs are open to anyone, but please don't be weird (you don't know us yet). Mutuals can ask for our discord as we are more active there!

We welcome all messages and asks! Seriously, we get so happy when we get one. However, we have memory problems and struggle heavily with anxiety; so we may not always be the first to reach out or respond. Please be patient!

We are a disordered plural system with moderate memory barriers who supports all system origins. Due to this, we have a rather bad memory and often forget to do things we said we'd do. You are welcome to remind us of things!
We do not consider asks or questions about system things as personal- in fact, we rather enjoy it. Please by all means ask us about system things. We want to educate people and help out possible systems or loved ones of systems! If a question is too personal, we will choose not to answer it- you are not the one who needs to hold back!
We are a system with high degrees of separation between headmates and we all consider ourselves different individuals. Please do not treat us like some sort of hivemind. Not how it works.
If we make a post or make a comment in a reblog, we tend to tag whoever posted it/drew the art with an emoji symbol. Only our most frequent fronters are listed below- feel free to ask for our other headmates' names, but we will not list them here.
We don't have a DNI nor do we care if you interact/follow. We do block liberally though. Don't be offended.

Why is it always "feel free to reach out to me if you need anything" and never "I'll send you a message when I have anything to say". Why is the pressure always on me to keep these relationships close. Why doesn't anything enjoy our company enough to actively seek us out. What are we doing wrong
Like don't get me wrong I *am* reaching out when I can but I'm a mentally ill girl with BPD and OCD and I never get anything in reciprocation. It feels like I'm always chasing after the reflection of the moon. Nobody does anything (minus our gf) that makes us feel wanted or that we're getting closer to them. It's like trying to climb an ice wall
We've been falling back into depressive states lately and when we get like this we tend to clam up and not say anything to anyone unless directly asked, as a byproduct of having grown up emotionally neglected. I feel like I'm sinking into quicksand in full of everyone and yet somehow no one is offering to help unless I call for help myself, except my throat has already gone raw from yelling for help so many times before

Suddenly struck with a need to explain to you how boat pronouns work (I work in the marine industry).
When you're talking about the design of the boat, you say "it".
When the boat is still being built, your say "it".
When the boat is nearing completion, you can say "it" or "she".
When the boat is floating in the water you probably say "she", unless there is still a lot of work to be done (e.g. no engine yet) then you say "it".
When the boat is officially launched and operating, you say "she". If you continue to say "it" at this point you are not incorrect but suspiciously untraditional. You are not playing the game.
If you are referring to a boat you don't really know anything about you may say "it" ("there's a big boat, it's coming this way"). But if you know its name, it's probably "she" ("there's the Waverley, she's on her way to Greenock").
If you are talking about boats in general, you say "it" ("when a boat is hit by a wave it heels over")
If you speak about a boat in complimentary terms, it's "she" ("she's a grand boat"). If you are being disparaging it may be it, but not necessarily ("it's as ugly as sin", "she's a grotty old tub").
If she has a boy's name, she's still she. "Boy James", "King Edward", "Sir David Attenborough"? The pronoun is she.
If it's a dumb barge (no engine), you say it. But if it's a rowing boat (no engine), you say she.
I hope this has cleared things up so that you may not be in danger of misgendering floating objects.
pupgender is just as much a serious gender as woman, mew/mews pronouns aren't less respectable than she/her or he/him, being stargender isn't any more "silly" or "frivolous" than being a man, being xenogender isn't the gender equivalent to playing with toys we ARE our genders no matter how playful with gender a xenogendered person is
Hello, tumblr! I saw something on here the other day that worried me, so I decided to Do Science about it. But I can't do it alone: I need your help to build the dataset!
Here's what I need you to do:
If you see a post with a "mature content" label, and it's 2026, DM me a link to the post.
Yes, that's really it.
I am hoping to collect several thousand such posts, so that I have a decent sized dataset. I do not care what the post is about; if it's labeled as "mature content", I want to add it to my dataset.
If I get 10,000 posts in my dataset before August 31st 2026, I will post my preliminary findings then. I won't feel comfortable calling my findings "settled" before 2027, unless I get over 50,000 posts.
you are alive on a planet with insects and whales and diatoms and mycelium networks and puppies and your human friends. literally so awesome to be a living thing
my number one advice for parents is to listen to your children tbh. and i dont just mean listening to their problems i mean like. when your kid recites the plot of a movie youve already seen or your tells you about what they did at school today or wants to show you their roblox gameplay. youve gotta be invested in knowing your kid as a person or why are you even doing the whole parenting thing.
i just got the "see where your blood has gone!" email from giving blood but it glitched and just showed me my current location. which. theyre not wrong. that is where most of my blood is
I feel like simply calling JK Rowling a transphobe isn't strong enough anymore. Like. This is not your grandpa calling you by your deadname at a restaurant kind of transphobic. This is her wanting to eradicate all trans people (with an extra special hatred towards trans women specifically). This is her trying just that by personally funding transphobic hate groups with millions to push around laws in the UK. It is not hyperbolic to call her a dangerous, genocidal maniac.
It's not about cancelling a problematic writer. It's about literally trying to save lives by denying her as much money and power as possible.
Always funny to me when indie devs who already sell games for dirt cheap participate in steam sales with like 90 percent off. Like. "Yeah this game is three dollars but you can have it for one right now." Like your game costs as much as a pack of m&ms and youre selling it for the cost of a pack of m&ms in the 1950s now? Okay
i would do anything for seven red suns @asteraden - Tumblr Blog | Tumgag
