Buncha alterbeings in one body

[cosmiccommune]

Pinned post:

Hello! We are a system entirely comprised of alterhumans*! This is a sideblog for talking about that; we follow from @cosmicconstruct. To maintain anonymity, we'll each use (one of) our alterhuman identities instead of our name. We're collectively autistic and have schizoaffective disorder, so expect posts about those, too!

*we know plurality in itself counts as alterhumanity, we mean we are all individually alterhuman in other ways, too!

Individual intros:

The Idol (nya/nyan/sti/stim/they/them): Magical enby virtual idol! Age: 12. Special item: Happy pills and love syringe.

Virtual idolkin (vocaloid character archetrope)

Calico catkin and kemonomimi

Syskid (plz don't call me a little)

Xenogender (catgender, autigender, audiovestimic)

Joy/innocence holder

The alternate (it/its): Monstrous beast. The shadows on the walls of abusers' homes. I watch.

Living pain/scar conceptkin

Alternatekin (Mandela Catelogue)

Completely nonhuman. I prefer non/inhuman to any other term.

Symptomholder that makes a bit too good of a substitute protector.

The demon (any/all): Halfway-to-demon being that got yoinked into this body for unknown reasons.

Demi-demon

Genderfluid

There is a lot about me that I don't know if there's words for. Might make a separate post trying to explain

More in rb so we can all put pictures!

[cosmiccommune]

The angel (she/her): Angel that came to Earth and has been in this body since moments after its birth.

Angelkin

Nature reclamation/overgrown man-made structures conceptkin

Mother to the Idol, caregiver to whoever else needs it.

Traumaholder, grief holder.

Woman in a way that transcends the cis/trans binary

The DJ (he/they): 5D alcoholic jester librarian

DJ from Tom Cardy's "Transcendental Cha Cha Cha" music video kin

Bill Cipher... something? Not entirely sure the label I'd put on this one

Sundrop and Moondrop something (see above)

5D being kin (sentinent embodiment of a physical being/place over a certain span of time)

Jester archetrope

System librarian and architect. I shape/maintain the headspace, as well as controlling who remembers what.

Impulsivity/addictive tendencies holder

Transmasc

And finally, the dog (he/it/canine neos): Sometimes I am growling and biting and sometimes I'm just a silly ouppy

German shepherd therian, semi-retired guard dog

Canine ambitherian, GSD strongest followed by coastal wolf

Selkiekin

Fred Jones (sdmi) otherlink

Protector in a canine way, host

Transmasculine in an enby way

That's all of us yippee! Few more organizational things:

We use "#xposting" to denote who is speaking and "#for the x" to @ each other. The DJ also uses #jesterposting when he's feeling silly.

We have no DNI. We are pro believing people about their experiences and pro respecting boundaries, which means we are pro endo, pro "contradictory" labels etc. and anti nonconsensual reality checking, armchair diagnosing etc. Please do not play doctor or act like strangers' experiences are up for debate on this blog!

Thanks for reading all this! We're excited to connect with fellow systems and other alterhumans ^-^ Stay safe out there! Remember to rest and take care of yourself, and remember to be brave! <3

I don't (finger quotes) "do syscourse" but I do love endos with my whole heart and soul. Even as a DIDer y'know? cuz I never would have accepted myself as plural if I hadn't met endogenic plural people. Believing I was quoigenic nondisordered was a gateway into accepting I was traumagenic with DID. So um yeah ☝️🤓 plurality is beautiful yada yada ily endogenics and traumagenics alike

[librarycards]

I think teens need to be able to go to trusted adults and say “I saw something in a porn video that freaked me out and now I’m worried I’ll have to do it too” and then the adult can say “it’s ok to be nervous about sex, but remember that you don’t have to do ANYTHING you don’t want to do, ever, no exceptions” and this should be an ongoing conversation to remind young people that sexual desire isn’t monolithic and they are not uniquely weird, cowardly, or undesirable for expressing their feelings, and they deserve sexual partners who prioritize consent & autonomy always

If you live in Texas, Alaska, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, or South Dakota, please contact your government officials and tell them not to challenge the integration mandate in section 504! They are trying to remove equal protections for disabled folks, and this attack is largely against trans folks as well, who are protected under section 504 via gender dysphoria diagnoses. More specifically, the integration mandate is the part that protects disabled (in this case, including trans) folks from being institutionalized, instead requiring that we be able to receive care and accommodations in any community space.

https://dredf.org/protect-504/ has details about the lawsuit, as well as scripts you can use when you call.

Something soothes my soul about seeing cis guys use neurodiversity terms freely. I'm so used to cis men feeling ashamed to talk about mental health or neurodivergence

Our next zine is turning out to be a multi-part affair, so we're releasing each part of the zine as we finish it. Enjoy!

Taking the RAADS for fun and why do people always assume autistic behaviors are geared toward masking? Like question 20, "I like to copy the way certain people speak and act. It helps me appear more normal." What do I pick if I steal people's mannerisms for fun/stimming purposes and it does NOT make me appear normal

[slightly-sigilant]

a while ago I had this convo with Lark that I feel like speaks for itself:

Lark: "I want to stay up late playing Minecraft, but... I have to be the responsible one..."

me:

me: "Okay so. There's this particularly insidious bit of thinking that I feel like circulates unaddressed around the plural community, and that's that anyone who isn't perceived as the 'host' or the 'core' or the 'primary' or whatever centrist term is automatically held to a higher standard of behavior."

me: "Like we all know already how 'persecutors' are unpersoned and 'protectors' and 'caretakers' and suchlike are also unpersoned by being expected to be bottomless pools of strength and love, but it also happens outside of role labels, in a much more subtle way. If you're not the Assigned Most Real One By Society, then any kind of flaw or vice you have becomes a mark against your very existence. If you're the 'host' and you, like, maybe spend a little more money than you should, well, everyone's a person and that's okay! If you're not the 'host' and you spend a little too much money? Well, clearly you are a fucking nuisance and a burden upon the life of The Real One and you should be so ashamed of yourself, don't you know that healthy plurality is all about having saintly role models in your head who always help you Make Good Choices and never ever have a little Suboptimal Fun themselves?? You are not a person being a person - you are a Problem to be Fixed."

me: "And I could get into dignity of risk and all the bullshit double-standards towards disabled folks, fat folks, and so on, but lemme just cut to the chase. Lark. It is One Hundred Percent within your right to do this Mildly Irresponsible Fun Thing. It is your body and your life as well. Would you like to do the Mildly Irresponsible Fun Thing."

Lark: (small voice) "...Yes. I would like to do the Mildly Irresponsible Fun Thing."

me: "FUCK YEAH"

sorry to interrupt stairsweek but why is tumblr acting like this person killed me on impact by showing me as deactivated

[plant-based-person]

had a fascinating english class that resulted in the notes header “the forcefeminization of victor frankenstein”

[plant-based-person]

what the people want, the people get

you see

my professor’s take is that mary shelley is feminizing victor throughout the novel, as a way of flipping gender roles and putting a male character through female experiences.

evidence as explained:

victor is creating life. he is putting his health at risk (spends two years with little sleep or socialization) to bring life forth into this world

his illness after he is shocked by the creature coming to life is akin to both ‘hysteria’ and postpartum depression

he pretty much swoons, let’s be honest

henry clerval, a man who has been characterized as manly and heroic, has to chase after damsel-in-distress victor and care for him as he convalesces 

afterward, he hides what he did and went through, for fear that others will label him crazy and emotional and not believe him. sound familiar?

Victor in general is more emotional than the other characters and is constantly tempering his reactions to not be seen as irrational 

the book does not otherwise have central female characters 

Also, Shelley’s mother died in childbirth. It’s interesting, then, that Shelley presents the creation of life as something horrific and damaging. She parallels Victor with her mother.

in conclusion, Frankenstein (1818) by Mary  Wollstonecraft Shelley is one of the first examples of mpreg in English literature 

[just-call-me-the-old-hag]

[weaselle]

if victor is her mother, then it follows that she may also have been writing a little self insert of herself as the monster.

please stop treating the word neurodivergent like it means the overlap between autism and adhd

[kamlo]

i dont know how to articulate this well but some of you act like neurodiversity starts with adhd and ends with autism. you talk about "the neurodivergent experience" and everytime you mean "the overlapping experience of adhd and autism."

please remember us when talking about neurodiversity. ocd, dyslexia, dyscaculia, personality disorders, tourettes, intellectual disabilities, schizo-spec disorders, etc. all fall under neurodiversity.

please stop saying neurodivergent when you mean "autism and adhd."

this post is okay to reblog but do not clown on it

said this on bluesky but:

i genuinely encourage non black people to engage with this, who might be worried they can't because of the word "nigga" because they feel like it's overstepping. the only way it would be overstepping is saying it to me when ur not black, but please don't be afraid to engage with black art.

i kinda get annoyed when non black people police other non blacks on how to engage with black culture because it creates a problem where non black people avoid us all together which can be extremely isolating and create even MORE tension and overall being uneducated.
