Last updated: 8/27/2024 by Bill Cipher (Any pronouns)
The text is long so I put half of the post under a line lmao
IS SOMEONE FRONTSTUCK/WHO'S THE "HOST"?: 'Bill' Cipher (+ Will Cipher and Tad)
NAMES AND LABELS + ANY OTHER INFO
We collectively go by Arachne and Nik, as well as Shepherd with our close friends. We will probably respond to any name if we know you're talking to us, but we'd rather you use our preferred collective names, or our own personal names if you know who's fronting.
We prefer for people we don't quite know to use It/Its and That/Thats on us unless an alters sign-off on a post states otherwise. We are fine with any pronouns but will consider you using anything besides It/That as you being purposefully disrespectful unless you correct yourself. Our friends have our discord and therefore should know all our preferred pronouns, so there's no need for us to list them here.
We use many, MANY labels collectively as we don't have a great grasp on a collective sexuality, gender, or anything otherwise. The ones we've decided on for now are Polysexual, Ambiamorous, Queer, and AroAce spectrum.
We are bodily a minor. Practically no one in our system is but LEGALLY and BODILY we are a minor. If you are an adult who does not want minors interacting with you, DON'T FOLLOW US. It's genuinely upsetting to have to see someone cool follow us and then checking their account only to see "MDNI" in their bio.
DISCOURSE LABELS
Discourse is an inevitable thing we cannot escape due to the communities we are in, so here is a list of things we label ourself as.
We are:
Profiction
Proparaphile
Genicpunk
Radinclus
Cyberqueer (Our beloved creation)
It should be safe to assume that if you do things that are against our beliefs/discourse stances, that we will likely block you.
"DNI" LIST/BLOCK LIST AND BYF
Obviously our BYF is pretty much listed above, if you are against anything we support or agree with, then don't be surprised when you come on our account and we make posts supporting that stuff.
As for our "DNI" aka the list of people we will probably block, here ya go:
Homophobes and transphobes, as well Exclusionists, Transmeds, AroAce exclusionists, Anti-Neopronouns, and Anti-Xenogenders (Yes, all of them fit in with Trans/Homophobes, it's the same shit in a different package)
Neosatanists (Actually fuck off.)
TERFS/SWERFS/Any other variant of their bullshit
Racists, Xenophobes, Nazis, just literally any form of racist bullshit
Pro-contact/Non-consent paraphile supporters. (If you're "anti-recovery" feel free to interact, from what we've learned most people who say that don't actually believe Paraphiles shouldn't get therapy, they just don't believe it's possible to recover from Paraphilia unless it's a Disordered Paraphilia.)
Ableists, Sysmeds, Anti-self diagnosis, and anyone who uses the following terms to insult/demean people: Retarded, Narcissistic, Sociopathic, Psychopathic, Mentally ill/Unwell, Disordered, or Autistic. Also, if you use any form of disorder as an insult or as if its just another basic word (EX: "I'm so OCD", "I'm so ADHD") despite not having that disorder.
Anyone who asks people for proof of their race, mental disorders or illnesses, chronic illnesses, or physical disorders.
Also, antishippers will be blocked SWIFTLY, We would rather not get 50 death/rape deaths, be told to harm ourself, and then be told our trauma is deserved.
Besides those things, there's plenty of other shit you'll get blocked by us for, but honestly, you don't need to know EVERY little detail of our block list. If we don't like you, you're blocked, whether you fit the above list or not.

Probably a lot more but I'm violently nauseous while creating this so. This is the end of the intro and I'll finish it in the future or someone else will idk.
explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like âmaleâ, âfemaleâ, ânonbinaryâ, âmasculineâ, âfeminineâ or âandrogynousâ.
In the midst of all these âHumans will packbond with anythingâ posts, Iâm going to pause and give you some actual, real-world career advice
Ready?Â
Humans are packbondy creatures. Â I mean, thereâs just no arguing it. Â They packbond readily, and quickly, and unbelievably strongly. Â Once a human has packbonded with a thing, they will do anything to help and protect that thing. Â
Thereâs a downside to that, not often mentioned. Â It uses up a lot of their time and energy to build those packbonds, maintain those packbonds, and most especially to do the work of helping and protecting those with whom they have packbonded. Â It doesnât leave them a lot of time and energy for helping other beings.Â
If you want a human to help you â if you want to reliably get their best effort â you have to packbond with them first.
âYeah? So?â
So youâre probably going to be working with humans for most, if not all, of your career. Â No matter how good or bad you are at your job, there will come a time when you need someone else in your workspace to help you with something, whether thatâs manning the fry station for 2 minutes while you pee, sending over those numbers from marketing, or dropping everything to teach you how to do a thing that your boss told you to do or else youâd be fired. Â
Not to mention the big things.  They donât give promotions to just their friends â at least not so much any more. Promotions go to the people whoâve completed big, visible, important projects.  It seems fair until you consider,,,, who gets the big, important, visible projects assigned to them in the first place? Â
Humans give boosts to the people theyâve packbonded with. Â They mention packbondeeâs accomplishments to the boss (or the bossâ boss). Â They cover for the mistakes of people theyâve packbonded with. Â
âThatâs not right! It shouldnât be a popularity contest! It should be about who does the best ââÂ
Listen to me.Â
Listen.
You may be right. Â You may be the most correct creature to have ever spoken since the beginning of galactic civilization.Â
It
does
not
matter
Humans packbond. Itâs what they do. I canât stop it. You canât stop it.  No power in the âverse can stop it. This is how the human do.
All you can do is work with it.Â
If you want a human to help you â if you want to reliably get their best effort â you have to packbond with them first.
âLook, Iâm introverted and scared of people and I have social anxiety so I really donât know how to ââ
Hey, my pal, I feel you. Â I, too, am introverted. And I have social anxiety. And I have PTSD that actually â and I recognize that this is bizarre â has âbusiness networkingâ as a trigger. Â
For you, I have good news:
Humans will packbond with anything. Â
Like, you donât really actually have to do anything. You kinda just have to⌠exist. In their presence. They kinda do the rest. Â
If you can talk with them, that speeds things up.  But it doesnât have to be, like, good conversation. Like, it can totally go
You: boy, sure is hot out!
Human: Man oh man, can you believe it?
You: Wow, yeah
Human: Totally
You: âŚ.
Human: âŚ.
This conversation â as awkward and uncomfortable as it felt to you, has caused this human to packbond with you a little more. If you repeat it weekly, you will get good results.Â
THE TAKEAWAYS
You need to packbond with the humans you come in contact with
Taking time to do that is not only justifiable, it is an important part of your job, and should be treated as such
That is to say that, as much as you hate it (and believe me, I understand), you have to take time away from actual work and dedicate it to packbonding with your fellow workers
Tips
Plan out your packbonding time. Itâs easier if you can initiate than if a human springs packbonding-time on you all unexpected. Â In an office job I like to use Friday afternoon, but adjust according to what makes sense to you and your situation.
Keep some packbonding-time questions handy. Â My go-to list is:
(If itâs Monday or Tuesday) How was your weekend?
(If itâs Wednesday) Howâs your week been so far?
(If itâs Thursday or Friday) Any big plans for the weekend?
Howâs your day been?
You donât have to care about the answers to these questions. All you have to do is remember that if the human is answering questions, they are not asking you any questions. Â Therefore questions are your friend. Â If you ask follow-up questions, you may be able to get through the entire packbonding time without having to do any of the talking
Learn to disengage from packbonding.  You can use basically the same sentence (or variants on it), but youâll want to practice it so that you can make it sound natural.  I use âAwesome! Well, I gotta get going. Have a good one!â
I know it feels overwhelming, but a few minutes of packbonding, once a week, is all you need. Â Once you build it into your habits it can be no more annoying than doing dishes or showering. Â
Okay but really this is true. And hereâs a MAJOR tip that will really help you out.
Focus on them/their answers.
It sounds basic but youâll want to hear this out, trust me. It changed my life.
When youâve got social anxiety and other shit that makes your brain a mess, it can be really hard to talk to people. Iâve got all that in spades so trust me I get it. What your brain wants you to do, is hyperfocus on yourself and your words and your actions because those are controllable. Hereâs the trick though, and studies will back this up btw, focusing on them will ease your own anxiety. It will also help prevent you from being too anxious to pay attention to their answer.
It works wonders, really. It can be hard to remember to do, but it really does help. What I do is, when I start getting anxious, I make myself think about their day. What might they be struggling with in that moment? What could I do to help?
And hereâs the second tip that will work wonders for you.
Follow Up.
Seriously. Donât force yourself through the pain of small talk just to let all that good intel go to waste. People frickin love knowing others are invested in their lives. If they mention having a date? Ask how it went, follow up on it. They mention theyâre retiling their bathroom- follow up on that shit. Howâd it go? Hell, offer to help if you like them enough. Health problems? That probably really sucks for them, so go ahead and step up, and prove youâre someone worth having a packbond with. Seriously, set reminders if you have to. Make a list of things the people in your life are interested in/worried about. Do what you gotta do. Just follow up on that shit.
On that same note though, donât pry. If itâs a heavier topic, be sure to include something like âhey and you donât have to tell me if you donât want. Iâm here to listen if you do, but no pressure.â Sometimes Iâll even add something like âWe can talk about anything! Wanna talk about cats? I freakin love cats.â That way, if they donât want to talk about it, they can easily segue into another topic without feeling pressured to talk about something theyâre uncomfortable with.
Tip #3: When somebody does a good job, let them know. Did they format a template real nice? Tell âem. Did they do an excellent job on a project? Tell them. Did they back up a coworker and get shit for it? Tell them you think they did the right thing. Things like that go a long way.
OKAY LAST AND FINAL TIP- This is something small that can just be nice for the people around you. Find out their birthdays, and put an alert on your phone to let you know like a week ahead. Then ask them, âhey youâre birthdayâs coming up right? Any fun plans?â
People like knowing youâve put in the effort to remember their bday and did just get a Facebook notification the day of.
Iâve got to hit the hay but there are some other smaller things Iâve found to be pretty helpful. Hmu later if you want those!

Can we please for the love of god stop telling teenagers theyâre too young to have aches and pains. Can we please stop being dismissive about these things. Fakeclaiming is disgusting period, but it is exponentially harmful to youth. Just because you didnât start hurting until your 20s or 30s or 40s doesnât mean every teenager complaining of chronic pain must be lying. I learned the hard way that if kids are invalidated enough about this, they will just learn to accept constant pain as a fact of life. And then they will need surgery they canât afford in ten years bc it turns out constant pain is NOT a fact of life. At any age.

WTNV
All of what i'd consider like.. 'main four doubles'?? Carlos, Cecil, Kevin, Charles. Also have the smiling god for some unapparent reason! That, plus a handful of OCs and some AU guys

i wish people would stop trying to convince trans men that they shouldnât transition (medically).
âdonât go on T, youâll go baldâ
âdonât go on T, youâll be aggressiveâ
âif you do go on T, get mood stabilizers because youâre gonna be really angry and destructiveâ
âdonât get bottom surgery, the recovery hurtsâ
âdonât go on T, i wonât feel safe around you anymoreâ
âdonât get top surgery the scars are uglyâ
âwhy would you want to be a man? men suckâ
so on and so forth. those are all things that i and other trans men i know have been told. and its gross!!
stop saying that. stop telling trans men to not transition. stop telling trans men that theyâre gonna be ugly, undesirable, a âtraitorâ, unsafe to be around, etc. itâs transphobic.
masculinity is a wonderful, beautiful thing. let trans men be masculine. let them be strong, take up space, loud about their identity, proud about their transition. itâs not a moral failing to be masculine. trans men arenât betraying the queer community by transitioning.
it is not trans menâs job to make themselves digestible and feminine for your comfort. there are men in the queer community. there are straight men in the queer community. there are masculine, tall, buff, bearded men in the queer community. and you might not know that theyâre queer at first glance. but theyâre queer nonetheless and you should be normal about that. that should not weird you out or make you feel betrayed.
trans men should transition if they want to. they should go on T, get surgeries, grow facial hair, talk about their transition and how happy they are to be a man without people telling them that theyâre bad or evil for it, go to the gym and get muscle-y, be stealth if they want to, and so much more.
trans men are not misogynistic for transitioning, theyâre not betraying the queer community or women, and their existence shouldnât make you feel threatened.
mwah i love masculine trans men so much ⥠never ever feel guilty for being a man
im bored, im silly, my verbal responses to reading each of these because why not
1. if you have the genes??
2. maybe.. wait no probably not, who cares??
3. if you NEED them ig??
4. no SHIT
5. fuck you
6. fuck you
7. fuck you
