Simply Plural: Ask and we'll see how that one guy feels. Or just guess.

We don't get Tumblr or Discord notifications and we tend to forget we're on social media at all, so if you message us don't expect timely responses.

[dreambound-ring]

We log off for ONE MONTH!!! Only to end up online again because we heard that Simply Plural's gonna be shut down. Lmao

We are switching to Octocon, which is uh. No color fields, no image markdown, no links for avatars, only four privacy settings. They limit us greatly.

Why do people seem to think the MOGAI community is dead? Why do youtubers especially seem to think that xenogenders aren't in use anymore, or that everyone has grown out of this community?

I've been xenogender for a very long time, and I am going to continue using these labels to describe myself until I die. It is not just a thing that little autistic kids use while they come to terms with the fact that the autistic gender experience is weird. The MOGAI community as a whole is not just a stepping stone towards being a "normal" queer person.

All the people who seem to think that MOGAI is gone, I gotta ask if they're actually looking and doing their research, because we're definitely still around.

friendly reminder to those who need it, because i sure do sometimes:

it's okay for your headmates to be similar! y'all literally share a brain, it would be more surprising if you WEREN'T similar. i have heard a lot of people, including myself, try to fakeclaim themselves (or others, but i'm not gonna get into that here) because "we're too similar, maybe i'm just pretending". you guys share a brain! amnesia barriers or not, you still have the same life under your belt and the same set of experiences more or less (not including exomemories, usually)

i promise you, that isn't a reason to think that you're faking. people who spend a lot of time together, like, i don't know, sharing a brain, often end up being very similar!

just remember, you are valid in your experiences, whatever they may be. you're not alone in this

Damn it, vent your merriment and go to bed now, guys!

Aplatonic (apl for short) flags part 3 :3 🍏🟩🟦🟪 (This set uses green+blue+purple, there's another set that uses yellow for apl instead.) (Due to the image limit, this is split into 4 posts.)

I noticed some a-spec flags were missing tertiary counterparts, so I made some. Some of these flags have already been made before, so they're not all original (I still wanted to have all the flags together in a set, and all in the same res).

-

greyplatonic | demiplatonic | aegoplatonic (1)

-

aegoplatonic (2) | non sam apl (1) | non sam apl (2)

-

neu apl | aplvoid | aplflux

-

aplspike (1) | aplspike (2) | apljump

-

dark greyplatonic | light greyplatonic | atomoplatonic

-

delloplatonic | fictoplatonic | cupioplatonic

-

bellusplatonic | reciproplatonic | lithoplatonic

-

frayplatonic (1) | frayplatonic (2) | apothiplatonic

-

orchidplatonic | myrplatonic | aplflexible

-

I'll also note that some of these terms can have multiple names, with the "platonic", "aplatonic", & "apl" part being interchangeable. This isn't applicable to every term though. I also chose not to list everything to try to keep it brief. So for example, greyplatonic can also be called greyaplatonic and greyapl.

Are we the only ones having issues with Simply Plural crashing, or is that an all large collectives thing?

Watching movies with small children is an EXPERIENCE, like tiny human, you have NO sense of story progression

Which is to say we put on the first How to Train Your Dragon

And at the dramatic "first flight" scene, two-year-old shouted "HIM FALL" and started SOBBING. She straight up thought that movie had murdered Hiccup and Toothless halfway through. Had to get double parental hugs and a constant stream of reassurances until they figured that whole flying thing out

All movies could be horror movies if your brain hasn't equipped Plot Armor to the protagonists

Anyway five-year-old is pleased to report that he "liked the part where the big dragon exploded"

[esmeralda-anistasia]

#Welcome to the action adventure genre my children#Five year old was VIBRATING through the climax like straight up legs kicking fists clenched#Had to be held by Spouse until we figured out he wasn't afraid#He was experiencing baby's first blood lust#Kid wanted that dragon DEAD and it HAPPENED and he was VIOLENTLY SATISFIED

Making a shitty one-page RPG called Oh Shit It’s the Killer. The premise is simple: you’re a high schooler spending the weekend in the woods with your besties. The Killer is there also. He is trying to the Kill you

[that-house]

I say shitty not to demean the quality of my work but because it’s less an exercise in good game design and more an attempt to induce paranoid internal conflict that turns into murder (in game of course). It has like three mechanics and one of them actively encourages you to murder the other PCs

[that-house]

Great news!

It’s done

I put like three braincells into this, so if there’s anything about it that outright sucks, uh. Sorry not sorry, L + ratio + let’s use the 1-page restriction as an excuse for any unfun mechanics

“What if there was a game about being a genre-savvy slasher protagonist murdering their way to the role of Final Girl?”

“Sounds cool when exactly does the PvP start”

“character creation”

watching the leftism leaving peoples bodies when you point out the sex offender registry is a grotesque violation of human rights

[gaphic]

the only reason the registry exists is because we culturally view sexual crimes as inherently more evil and unforgivable than any other kind of violence. people are more willing to believe that a murder can grow and change than a flasher. if you’re woke enough to believe that ‘innocence’ is a fascist concept and sex is just another thing the body can do, then you should believe the corollary: hurting someone with your genitals is no different from hurting them with your fists

and yet, murderers and other violent offenders do not have their full names, faces, and addresses put on a public database for the rest of their lives. there is no such thing. they are not legally barred from watching movies containing violence, or owning imagery containing violence

in my state, sex offender probation means you can be searched, at any time, without a warrant, and owning a copy of playboy is a violation. it means you’ll be arrested if a family member comes to stay with you and you don’t register their vehicle with the sheriff. the dehumanization is beyond the pale

im having feelings about the uffington white horse again

[batmanego]

so essentially there’s this cool horse drawn into the hills in england made out of chalk and it’s like 3,000 years old.

people carved trenches 3,000 years ago and filled them with chalk in the shape of a horse but what’s interesting is that if you fail to maintain the horse by adding new chalk regularly, it will disappear. for 3,000 years, we’ve been filling in chalk in this horse so it doesn’t disappear.

we’ll never know what the purpose of the horse was originally. we’ll never know if it had ritual or spiritual significance or if it was just art. but we do know that people maintained it then, and, even though the meaning of the horse has long been lost to time, we continue to maintain it now.

the people who made this horse are long dead, but they live through us still, don’t you think?

[batmanego]

couldn’t agree more we’re best friends now

[dreambound-ring]

I am the only one who can get even remotely comfortable on our DAMN BROKEN MATTRESS. But the LIGHT IS ON. And it is TOO BRIGHT. And I do NOT want to have to be the one to GET UP and TURN IT OFF.

It is nearly midnight
