forgot that being obsessed with fictional characters is not something normal people do. I hear someone say they’re too obsessed with a fictional character and for a moment I’m like “???? and what about it? isn’t that like??? normal???” then I realize that for a lot of people, it’s not.

I genuinely cannot imagine not being obsessed with the characters from the media I hyperfixate on and I genuinely cannot imagine not having a piece of media to hyperfixate on 😭

[cackletimebaby]

Snarl. Have you watched the new descendants movie? You should watch the new descendants movie. (I’m like 99% sure I’m hyperfixating on it or developing a hyperfixation on it)

I havent! It doesnt look the best but I'll see if its gonna be on the plane I'm going on tomorrow :D

[misfits-circus]

It’s actually really good considering it’s a dcom. Like up there with descendants 1 and 2, LEAGUES above the fourth one

[degeneratemagicalcatgirl]

I feel like people have this misconception that friends always agree with you. This is incorrect; A true friend will disagree with you, and even call you out on your bullshit, and still be your friend.

[cackletimebaby]

Hey hey what do you know about Max Hatter?

who 🥹

[misfits-circus]

Grandson of the Mad Hatter in descendants

[misfits-circus]

I know I’m annoying because whenever I see a discourse post that makes a definitive statement trying to prove their side, my first thought is “source?” And I know that concept is really annoying, BUT it’s kinda of very important. If you’re going to make a definitive statement on how things are, I’m gonna need some CER (claim, evidence, reasoning.) If you can’t give me that, then I have no reason to agree with you other than my own biases and evidence I personally accumulated. You aren’t going to convince anyone that disagrees with you to change your mind if you don’t give them sources outside your own opinion! I know that sucks to do on a random discourse post, but like. C’mon. That’s bare minimum. If you don’t do that, I’m assuming your target audience is people that already agree with you, which then makes “[insert discourse]” tag useless.

I am in fact the loser that’s going to ask for sources even if I agree with the claim. My education drilled into my head that evidence is required for everything and that’s not something I’m giving up.

[misfits-circus]

The conjoining of the terms fictive and fictionkin in both alterhuman and system spaces makes me incredibly uncomfortable as a fictive that identifies with some alterhuman labels.

The only thing we have in common is both terms describing something based on fiction.

Being a fictive isn’t an identity for me or for most of our other introjects. I exist like this because a twelve year old went through something so traumatic that the current coping mechanisms they had weren’t enough to deal with it so their brain latched on to something that brought them comfort and made them feel safer. That has nothing to do with someone who identifies has a fictional character or who believes they were a fictional character in a past life.

I see most of this coupling of terms in general plural and pro endo spaces and that has led me to conclude that this is another example of endogenics treating actual disordered symptoms and behaviors like an identity. It feels as though this is them bastardizing one of the more “fun” or “interesting” parts of this disorder without fully understanding what it is or the reason it happens. Which is upsettingly common in these spaces.

It’s yet another form of ableism towards those with CDDs that has yet to be addressed or unpacked broadly by the system community. I don’t expect it to be even realized, though, as the general system community thrives off of this specific form of ableism, on both pro and anti endo sides. On the pro side of the community, they don’t acknowledge ableism for what it is because do not view systems as symptoms of CDDs and thus inherently disordered. On the anti side, they rarely acknowledge fictives being anything more than offshoots of a fictional character, but still claim to know fictives aren’t actually their source.

This isn’t hate on fictionkins, for the record! I have no problem with them as long as they aren’t injecting themselves into conversations and spaces about and for introjects. This is more my personal observations, connections I’ve made, and feelings that have arose because of those observations. As well as a critique of the plural and system communities. I’m not even sure if any of this makes sense as I just started typing and the thoughts kept flowing as I did.

[misfits-circus]

I feel like so many problems in the system community, specifically the anti-endo system community, would be solved by everyone just minding their own business and realizing that your system is not going to work the way anyone else’s does.

It’s a symptom of a disorder caused by trauma. No one else has experienced the exact same trauma as you. Thus, no one else is going to have the exact same presentation of symptoms as you. We’re all individuals. The only thing all of us have in common is that we have a dissociative disorder.

Obviously this doesn’t apply to science denying or science contradicting misinformation. I’m talking about generally how CDDs present, please don’t present logical fallacies as your talking point.

[spookthelilguy]

I really hate the very notion of "talking back"

Oh, I'm terribly sorry for explaining myself, mother! How absolutely horrible and insolent of me for telling my side of the story! I'll make sure to never do that again!

IM SO SICK OF BEING TREATED LIKE A CHILD & THEN EXPECTED TO ACT LIKE AN ADULT

[grave-has-ghosts]

protect your child alters online

adult and minor body systems alike

so often these parts are taken advantage of... by strangers... by people you know...

[grave-has-ghosts]

to add...

this is not to say child alters can't be mature/adult ... they're in the same brain that you are so of course they can understand more than an actual child

BUT

that does not mean

A) every child part can be mature

B) that even mature child parts are exempt from this, it is still a regressed part of your brain.
