Moth Beyond Time

Welcome to my alterhuman blog! I'm Moth - they/them, moth/moths - I aplogize for disappearing for months at a time. Unfortunately, it will happen again.

New Intro!

we made an intro a while ago, but didn’t like it anymore and deleted it, we’ve also had a lot of self / system discovery since then so we’re starting from scratch!

Hi! 👋, we are a system! Our collective name is Kier and we generally use the system tag / name “KierIsASystem” in servers and such. we’re still in the process of understanding how we function, and don’t always have the best idea of who we are at any given time.

this blog was originally started by Moth along with other non/inhuman headmates before we realized we were plural, and now we’re turning it into a general system blog :3

There’s too many of us to realistically list / name here (+ not everyone wants to be known public), so we’re just going to add to the tag list as people decide to make posts.

we are pro endo btw 💖 userboxes & tag list under the cut :3

unidentified plurality is what do you MEAN I can only pick one option (<- this statement applies to anything ever)

We thought it was an autism thing, that we were overcomplicating it when someone asked us to choose. We basically said “but sometimes I like this!” -Julian

well that's one way to make yourself known

I feel like the system community treats "how similar are your system members/how much do you share with your system members" as one clean, whole thing when like. It'd probably be easier to talk about if you broke it down into different categories.

Maybe your skill sharing is high, like 80%. Meanwhile, your speech patterns vary wildly, so you say they're only about 30% shared. Maybe your episodic memory sharing is at 65%, your semantic memory sharing is at 95%, and your procedural memory sharing is at 75%. Maybe your values are 85% shared, maybe your life goals are 20% shared, maybe your identity is 90% shared. There's a lot of different variables and things you can share, you know? I could go on.

Trying to turn all of that into one average of "how alike are all of you" doesn't seem very helpful, but for some reason, we expect it of so many systems. So, if you struggle with answering "How similar are you all?", maybe try this out and see if it's a more useful framework for you.

Polyplural culture is “He’s a subsystem, she’s a subsystem, you’re a subsystem, I’m a subsystem! Are there any other subsystems I should know about!?”

both trans men and trans women are punished for our proximity to both feminity and masculinity. people decide when we are men or women based on what is the WORST option at the moment. we both get treated like women only when someone needs to infantalize us or call us bossy, bitchy, stupid, vapid. we both get treated like men when someone wants to demonize and paint us as violent, predatory, abusive, perverted. NONE of us are benefiting from any gendered privilege, because we are always treated like the worst of either gender depending on the scenario. this is something all trans people experience, regardless of agab, both trans men and trans women. so why do we assume that the other side has the opposite experience as us?? why do you think that because your life as a trans man or a trans woman is painful, that a trans person of a different gender must have the opposite experience?? like i just dont get the preschool level understanding of gender like "well boys and girls are opposites so of course our experiences are opposites too" we are living the same transphobia and if you cant see it you need to listen to other people more

I want to staple this post to the foreheads of a huge swath of the trans people on this site. Specifically here and at this time. My IRL trans community, my other online trans communities, all get this. Granted those are both significantly more curated but still. WE HAVE TO HAVE EACH OTHER’S BACKS BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE WILL. I don’t get what is so hard about that concept. We are all having the same sorts of experiences. I have more in common with my trans-femme girlfriend than my cis ex. And this is NOT because I was badly matched with my ex. Maybe my girlfriend injects her hormones with a different size needle than I do, but we’re both still holding a fucking needle you know???

Anyway, trans solidarity is a matter of basic survival right now. Stop doing the fascists’ work for them by turning on your trans siblings. It’s actively dangerous.

Front won’t let us post our new intro until at least two alter tags are on it so I’m making a post now. I don’t have much to share here, and more than likely I’ll never post here again (large system) but in the event I do at least I’ll have a tag for it,

Hypothetically... if I were to make an endo friendly discord server... made to befriend other systems and the like... how likely is it that people will join?

...Reblog if you would, is what I am asking here

unidentified plurality culture is having your gender change almost constantly but insisting you aren't genderfluid cause your gender doesn't feel fluid. it was the plurality

You& were like “Something’s not right here, but I just can’t put my finger on it…” and the thing was whole-ass other people -Dean
