Intro post
Hi, I'm Ash! I use he/they/it/xe pronouns (primarily, the rest of my pronouns can be found in the pronouns.page link in my description.) You might be familiar with my other blogs (lgbtqiatext and lgbtqiauserboxes, to name a couple) and I've finally made a flag creation blog!
PLEASE READ BELOW!
FAQ
Q: Why so many trigger/content warning tags?
A: Because my blogs are intended to be safe spaces. I want to make them as easy to navigate as possible for everyone, and that includes people that are sensitive to certain topics/words/etc. If you think TWs/CWs are stupid or unnecessary, then you are not my target audience and you should go elsewhere.
Q: Why do you add a TW to posts with the q word?
A: As someone who has suffered a traumatic experience that involved that word being used as a slur, I know firsthand what it's like to find that word triggering. I've since reclaimed it for myself, but it was a long, difficult, upsetting process. That word is absolutely everywhere in the LGBTQ+ community, and while I'm happy it's widely reclaimed, some people haven't reclaimed it and some never will. I want my blogs to be safe for those sensitive to the q word, as they deserve to be a part of the community and not shunned for their struggles.
Q: Why are anonymous asks disabled? What if I don't want to be mentioned in the answer when it's posted?
A: Anonymous asks are disabled to prevent spam and harassment. If you would like to remain anonymous when the answer to your ask is posted, simply let me know in your ask! I won't mention you in the post if you don't want to be mentioned.
Q: Why are you red on Shinigami Eyes?
A: Shinigami Eyes notoriously marks trans men, intersex people, nonbinary people, and tucutes as red even if they are trans-friendly. If you see me marked as red, please mark me as trans-friendly. It's bizarre that some people have chosen to mark me and other trans advocates as red.
Q: Do you take commissions?
A: Not at the moment, maybe not ever. I worry that monetizing my flags would take the fun out of it for me. I don't take requests on this blog, either, so commissions will probably never happen.
Q: Do you queue any posts?
A: Yes, I do this sometimes, especially if I make batches of flags and I don't tag any of my queued posts as being queued.
Q: Face reveal?
A: No, for my own safety, I will not be showing my actual face. The closest thing I can show is this Picrew by Makowka. Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to draw anything over it, so just imagine me with a nasallang piercing and a goatee.
Q: Why did you block me/my friend?
A: For breaking one or more of my rules. Also, don't ever contact me on behalf of a person I've blocked or on an alternative account if I've blocked you. I block people for at least one reason, and never unblock.
Q: Why are some posts tagged with minors dni? What if I'm almost an adult?
A: If I tag a post with 'minors dni,' it's because the post is about sex or sexual things. I am an adult- I should not have to explain why I don't want minors interacting with my posts about adult topics. It's gross. I don't care if you're a single day away from turning 18, if a post says 'minors dni,' that includes you, too.
Q: Are you entirely anti-para?
A: I'm only against harmful and dangerous paraphilias. If you have a paraphilia that isn't unethical or anything, like for feet or something, then I don't care at all. I'm anti-incest, anti-pedophilia/hebephilia, anti-zoophilia, etc.
Q: Can I spam like/reblog/reply?
A: Spam likes/reblogs are fine, but please do not create an excessive amount of replies.
Q: Do you support BLM/Stop Asian Hate?
A: Absolutely! My blogs are safe for anyone of any race/ethnicity/culture.
Q: Do you support Gaza/Free Palestine?
A: Yes! Zionists/Israel supporters are not welcome on any of my blogs.
Q: Do you support Ukraine?
A: Yes! Supporters of the Russian military are not welcome on any of my blogs.
Q: What's your political alignment?
A: Hardcore liberal. Socialist-leaning, though I need to learn more about socialism and other things before I label myself a socialist.
Q: Why do you stop posting sometimes?
A: Because I'm a human being. I have a life of my own and things I need to do that take priority over my blogs. I'm not always feeling creative either, so I wait until I feel creative again before making content. Making content when I don't feel a spark makes the content lack-luster.
Q: How do you make these flags?
A: Tennessine! I then edit the flags with Paint 3D/GIMP.
Q: What are your LGBTQIA+ identities?
A: Check out my pronouns.page and my pronouns.cc! My pronouns.page has my main identities, names, pronouns and general terms. My pronouns.cc lists all of my xenogenders. Mainly, I'm a birose (biromantic/bisexual) nonbinary trans man that uses he/they/it/xe pronouns.

Rules/DNI
Note: By sending me an ask, you are giving me permission to post it on my blog. If you do not want your ask answered publicly, tell me in your ask. If your ask is harassing, unkind, or makes me uncomfortable, I have the right to post it on my blog.
1. No bigotry of any kind.
No homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, lesbophobia, aphobia, racism, sataniphobia, anti-semitism, sexism (of any kind,) ableism etc. This includes transmedicalism, anvils, and any bigotry against any LGBTQIA+ identity. Respect neopronouns. Respect xenogenders. If you're anti-MOGAI, you're not welcome here. Body shaming of any kind towards anyone is not okay.
2. No discourse.
This is not a debate blog. Do your own research and respect people's identities. I do not engage. Don't feed the trolls. Do not argue with each other in the notes. If you leave a reply that is unhelpful or incites discourse, I may remove it. I'm not compensated or obligated to manage arguments in my notes, so I sometimes prevent discourse altogether by deleting replies. I get enough replies I have to delete from bigots and spam bots, anyway. This isn't a place to argue. Also, please do not derail from the topic of my posts in a way that incites discourse.
3. No harassment/rudeness.
Do not harass me. Do not harass anyone in the notes. Don't be rude to me or anyone in the notes. Harassment and rudeness are not tolerated here in any capacity, for any reason. If I do something wrong, please be polite when correcting me! Even if you have valid criticism, if you're rude to me, I will take your complaint into account and still block you. Being overly negative/unhelpful may get you blocked as well. Please do not nitpick my animations.
Do not contact me on behalf of a person I've blocked. Do not contact me/interact with my blogs on an alternative account if I’ve blocked you.
4. No radqueers/pro-para/pro-transid.
Anyone pro-para, transabled, transspecies*, transrace, transage, etc. DNI. Even "harmless" transids. If you're trans anything but gender, DNI. I don't care if you just have a fetish or something, but if you're pro-incest, zoophilia, pedophilia or anything that is harmful, DNI. Objectum is not a paraphilia, but objectophilia is. Objectum is being oriented towards objects, not a fetish. Objectums are welcome here. I do not take requests for radqueer, radqueer-adjacent, pro-harmful para, or pro-transid things. No exceptions. You are NOT welcome here or on any of my blogs.
*By transspecies, I mean the transid. Not therians/otherkins.
5. No MAPs/Zoos.
No exceptions.
6. Pro-AI DNI.
This blog and all of my other blogs are anti-AI. It steals from content creators and damages the environment. Do your research, and if you still think AI is even remotely okay, DNI.
7. Do not steal my flags.
You may repost or use my flags for your own purposes, but do not take credit. Crediting me is not necessary, but always appreciated! If you're in my DNI, do not use my flags.
8. Do not edit my flags without asking first.
Don’t do this without asking, and do NOT post it yourself. Preferably, tell me what change you would like to see made and I might change it myself. If you just want to put a flag of mine over an image or meme, that's fine! But please credit me.
9. Do not interact with my NSFW posts if you are a minor.
Sometimes my posts are NSFW or NSFW leaning, and will be tagged with 'minors dni.' Do not interact with those posts if you are under 18. Even if you are just a day away from turning 18. If a post I make is NSFW or NSFW-leaning and is not tagged with 'minors dni,' please let me know ASAP so I can tag it properly. Sometimes I forget to add important tags. If I catch you interacting with these posts and you're a minor, I WILL block you.
10. Don't be overly sexual in replies/reblogs, especially on posts that aren't about NSFW topics.
While I do make text about NSFW LGBTQIA+ things from time to time, please don't be overly sexual in the notes. This goes double for posts that have nothing to do with NSFW of any kind, as minors are allowed to interact with those posts and I don't want them exposed to NSFW topics.
11. Don't be pushy.
If you've sent an ask, be patient! Being pushy or rude is a fast way to get blocked. Please do not ask me to reopen the ask box when it’s closed.
12. Use Google if you don't know what an identity I've posted about is.
The LGBTQIA Wiki has a ton of pages about many different identities. I seldomly answer comments in reblogs. Please Google something if you don't know what it is, Google is a lot faster than me. If you can't find it through a search engine, try searching Tumblr. Some identities are very obscure and are only able to be found on Tumblr or sometimes Pinterest. If you search and truly cannot find any information about an identity I've posted about, then it's fine to ask about it.
13. If you're going to add a content ID to my posts, please do it correctly.
The tags will always have what identity I'm posting about in them. Please read the tags so you ID my posts properly.
14. No spam.
Don't send asks, messages, replies or comments in reblogs promoting yourself. Do not ask me for money. Do not advertise to me or to anyone in the notes.
These rules are subject to change, and I may add more. Breaking any of these rules will earn you a block. I also block at my own discretion. If you're being overly negative, rude, inappropriate, etc. I will block you. Follow these rules, and we'll get along! This blog is centered around positivity.
Medicalgender Flags
Medicalgender: A xenogender where one's gender relates to the medical field. It may also be an umbrella term for xenogenders relating to specific fields of medical science, technology, equipment, procedures, etc.
The stripes have no particular meanings, they are simply colored like different aspects of the medical field.
[Image ID: Two pride flags with five even stripes. The flag on the left has a black caduceus in the center, and the flag on the right does not. From top to bottom, there is a light yellow stripe, a light turquoise stripe, a white stripe, a light grey stripe, and a dark red stripe./.End ID]
Op I love you and all you do, so I really don't want you to feel bad: that is very very not a medicine symbol.
The Caduceus (the one in the flag) is a stick with TWO snakes, and wings. It's the symbol of Hermes, a greek god that doesn't relate to medicine at all, but does relate to thieves and trickery... Which would probably not be optimal to use given the context
The Staff of Asclepius, a straight stick with no details but a single snake curling around it, is the symbol of the aforementioned Asclepius, greek god of Medicine specifically.
Shit. Thanks for letting me know. I've seen that symbol used in the medical field all my life, I never knew it was the wrong one lmao. I've updated the flag.
Chronically Ill/Chronic Illness Flag
Chronic Illness: A chronic illness is a long-term condition that may last for an individual's entire life. Chronic illnesses may qualify as disabilities, if they disable a person. They may interfere with a person's daily life, general wellbeing, and productivity. Some examples of chronic illnesses include COPD, depression, arthritis, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, diabetes, fibromyalgia, and many more.
The dark grey stripes represent those that have been lost to chronic illnesses. The red stripe represents difficulties faced with work, school, doctors, medications, and the effects of chronic illness. The orange stripe represents boldness, strength, and overcoming those difficulties. The white stripe represents all forms of chronic illnesses, physical and mental.

This flag was heavily inspired by the disability pride flag created by Ann Magill.
