Intro post (at least temporarily)

Hey hey!! We’re the Raining Stars Collective - a system of unknown origin

We are pro-origin - if that makes you uncomfortable, then block

Feel free to send us asks!! We’re still learning about plurality and ourselves so we won’t be able to answer all your questions but we’ll still try

Collective pronouns: they/them

Boundaries!!

-Please don’t try and flirt with us - it makes us uncomfortable

-Don’t ask for our names - if you want to use someone’s name, use their emoji instead (link is safe! It has everyone’s emoji and pronouns - please check it more than once as the post may update)

-DO NOT POST US TO R/SYSTEMCRINGE. WE ARE SERIOUS. If you think that for some we reason we deserve to be there, don’t post us.

-Please don’t ask for our main account!

-Don’t mention our main if you know it!!

We’ll update this blog’s intro post and profile picture when we have the energy to fix it

I love being plural

I love my headmates

I love my headmates who front often

I love my headmates who barely front

I love experiencing the world through the lens of plurality

I love being plural

In case you need them, here are some gentle reminders:

Your trauma is valid, no matter how "minor" others think it is.

Your origins are all valid; trauma isn't the only cause for a system's existence.

Persecutors are allowed to exist.

Protectors are allowed to make mistakes.

Caregivers are allowed to take breaks.

Littles are allowed to swear.

Hosts are allowed to step back.

It's okay for the smart sysmates to not know something.

It's okay for the tough ones to cry.

It's okay for the nice ones to stand up for themselves.

It's okay for the persecutors forgive.

It's okay for the protectors to let down their guard.

Anxiety holders are allowed to be calm.

Depression holders are allowed to feel happiness.

Mood boosters are allowed to be sad.

Anger holders are allowed to be happy

All of you are loved.

All of you are accepted on this page.

All of you deserve nice things.

All of you deserve to have good days.

You matter.

We love you. (platonically)

🎆 Whats a plural joke you find funny? (Or stupid)

🎲 An out-of-context thing you’ve heard in-sys recently

🎟️ How long have you known? How long have you suspected?

🫐 Do you have different art styles? Writing styles? Tones of voice?

💐 Is there anything you all collectively like? Collectively dislike?

🐬 What’s the most common color that appears in your system?

👾 What’s the most common species to appear in your system?

[raining-stars-collective]

Hello hi please send asks :3

[meadow-dot-7z]

Syscourse is really funny if you try to imagine people saying the same things about any other mental phenomenon.

"DNI if you claim to be 'sad' without an MDD diagnosis"

"You're 'proud' of being 'self-confident'? Stop romanticizing NPD, it's a debilitating disorder for people who really have it, faker."

"Trauma is the only valid origin for psychosis, people who claim to have 'hallucinated' because of drugs or sleep deprivation are either lying or they just don't know how traumatized they are"

"Well, I developed my agoraphobia from being kidnapped and tortured THREE TIMES at the age of six, so anyone who claims they developed it later in life or from less severe trauma is faking."

[thankyoumoon]

I can never seem to explain why these feel like different things to me even though they look the same on the outside

[leathersys]

if we ever take a long time to get to your ask just know this is happening behind the scenes

[raining-stars-collective]

Yeah :(

[synthesizer-system]

maybe if i scream "plurality is a symptom, not a disorder" at sysmeds loud enough then they'll start to understand

[hypnos-erus]

On switching, and being a host

[femceladonite]

Just seen a guy laugh at how a 'fake' DID system "slipped up" and said "I" instead of "we" and my god does this only go to show that these fakeclaimers know NOTHING about us or our disorder and yet they think they know better than the literal people WITH the disorder.

Like I already knew this but seeing this guy act so smug about 'exposing a faker' with the most nothing burger evidence ever makes me want to commit homicide no joke. ^^

They try to act like they're helping DID systems by 'rooting out the fakers', but in reality they're merely trying to restrict disabled people's way of expressing themselves comfortably. They don't really see any of us as actual people and are just looking for yet another way to feel superior to and suppress disabled people in a less frowned upon way.

[mindwrms]

i love you sysmates who are confrontational. i love you sysmates who are mean. i love you sysmates who are loud and opinionated. i love you sysmates who are “evil.” i love you sysmates who are angry, and hard to deal with. i love you sysmates who handle big emotions, especially the negative ones. i love you sysmates who deal with those emotions and dont deal with them well. i love you sysmates who are messy. i love you difficult sysmates.

[weatherchannel-collective]

anyone else feel the need to just

(this is about being plural, please do not interpret/tag as anything else)

[raining-stars-collective]

I know of our headmates needs this (cause of stuff I don’t wanna dive into) and I wish I could give them it -🌸

[psychodipshit-deactivated202607]

shout out to those alters that fronted once then dipped🙏🙏

[manylittleguys]

no no please worry about the "evil" alter. they're doing this for attention please for the love of god give them attention they are touch starved and in need of love. cause they're not really evil, they're lashing out. if everyone else gets compassion when they lash out, so should the "evil" alter.

stop calling people who are hurting "evil". start taking care of the "evil" people. they're still people, and people deserve compassion.

[teheggsys]

THIS. THIS. THIS. THIS.

All of our alters that lash out are parts that feel like they aren't ill enough, aren't independent enough, aren't sociable enough, aren't happy enough, aren't sad enough, aren't real enough .. THEY THINK THEY AREN'T ENOUGH AND THEY DESERVE TO BE VALIDATED FOR THE FEELINGS THEY HAVE.

Not to say that their behavior should be rewarded or validated, but to heal, to be taken care of, they first need to understand that what they're feeling is real from us, and then that there are better ways to express those things.

"Evil" implies that they're inherently bad and can never change. I can only think of a handful of people in the real world who I would call "evil." Don't apply that logic to alters.

[synthesizer-system]

do we like the custom moods chat

[raining-stars-collective]

We should probably make custom fronts…

Love the descriptions though lol they’re perfect
