This is a sideblog for us to collect terms and occasionally coin some. Any terms coined here can be posted to other sites with credit and without changing any definitions. We are also open to requests :)

Any form of discourse DNI, otherwise, everyone is welcome to use any terms we coin or interact with our posts but please bare in mind we are: pro endo (we are an endogenic system), proship but anti-darkship and radqueer critical, leaning towards anti. If any of these things bother you, please just block or move on.

˗ˏˋ » truvana — 🪦┆a gender related to the true fear of death, getting high, sitting in silence next to someone you hurt, the want for a true afterlife, bands such as green day, nirvana, and the smashing pumpkins, grainy music videos, rage rooms, dried / rotted fruits, staring at a blank piece of paper meant to be vented on, passive suicidal ideology, laying wide awake next to your sleeping loved one, wishing to be better but feeling stuck in the same, toxic place, and rodents ! ˎˊ˗

── .🪦; self - indulgent, term was coined by me. however, if someone already coined this, consider this an alt. flag.

do you wanna know how I make cool flags like these?
Well LOCK IN because I'm about to teach you :D
you will need ibis paint for this ( ◜‿◝ )
1. CONCEPT
I usually start with a concept. this could be anything. it could be the definition or the colours I'd like to use. sometimes it's just "wow, I wanna make a flag with a cow on it, cus I like cows" it doesn't have to be super specific, just an idea.
For this demonstration I will use the concept of a camera.
2. SYMBOL
You don't have to have a symbol on your flag but I like to. there's so many websites you can use to find PNG's, I'd recommend thenounproject as it gives you the option for lineart or solid PNG's.
3. COLOURS
This is my favourite step, I love colours so much. if you don't know how to make a good colour palette or if you simply don't want to, (there is no shame in that, don't worry) you can always find something on Pinterest, Pinterest is your friend!!
I usually use a colour palette with 7 colours because my template has 7 stripes, but you can use however many you'd like!
4. ASSEMBLING THE BASE
We now have the beginnings of the base of our flag. we will put everything on top of this. I like to keep my bases relatively simple so that way I can put as much detail on top as I'd like without it getting messy.
Now we have our coloured base! you can have a gradient going up or down or going outwards or inwards or you can have any matter of combinations! it's really up to you
5. THE SYMBOL (again)
Once you've imported your symbol you can resize it and put it wherever you'd like on your flag. (though the centre is typically the default)
We are now done with the bare bones of the flag. now we get to do the fun part.
6. THE FUN PART
I like to use frames to add some interest to the edge of the flag so it isnt a harsh line, because I find it boring and I want some interest!
Depending on the vibe I either use the spiky frame or the scalloped frame to change how the stripes are shaped. you can add then to all the stripes to give a cool effect. for example, JamJoule (link) uses the scalloped frame on the top stripes and the spiky frame on the bottom one.
This is another way I make my flags look nice, you'll see this on nearly all of my flags. I like to colour these rows one of it's neighboring colours so it stays cohesive, you can use another colour with a significantly lighter or darker hue to add contrast.
7. THE COMPLETION (link to the flag post)
All thats left to do is give it a definition if you havent already and give it a name.
I love a good portmanteau so I usually mash two words together, ideally one that ends with the same letters that the other word starts with and boom, you're done!
I hope this was a good explanation and I hope it leads to even just one person making a flag. if there is anything you'd like me to clarify, please feel free to ask and I will try my hardest to explain!!
Rotbloomquotic is a xenogender related to the quote "from my rotting body flowers shall grow and I am in them and that is eternity", however the user experiences or defines that connection.
definition - a term for plurals who could be considered functional (ex. having organized roles, being able to incorporate systemhood into daily life without issue, etc) but are restrained from functioning properly due to being frontlocked/frontstuck, having poor internal communication, or any other reason. extremely self indulgent.
please upload our plural flags/terms onto pluralpedia, preferably with credit!
Spectre Homo: a gender relating to the feeling of being an imposter to being human, like you’re a non-human spirit possessing a human body and pretending but failing to properly display oneself as human; in which everyone can tell somethings off, but nobody is brave enough to confront you on it.
Like this term or role? Feel free to send us a request! There’s no flag too specific or niche for us to handle!
This flag does not have ID, id write outs would be appreciated.
