You know you're a true friend to our system when:
We openly switch in front of you
We don't keep our differences hidden and covert
We don't keep all the internal commentary to ourselves
Varyn sings around you
And you're especially a true friend if:
Doc fronts around you and uses his natural accent
=====
Feel free to add your own!
I feel like the funniest person on earth

Remember that role labels are descriptive, not prescriptive. You do not have to be nothing but your role. Not every plural has every role, not every headmate who performs a task falls into said role. It’s fine to not use role labels at all, even, or only some headmates to use them. It’s fine to make your own terms if you feel they fit better or just don’t like the more common ones. It’s fine to remain completely unlabeled. Role labels exist as an optional tool, they not define headmates or plurals in their capacity.
More Plural terms
We weren't satisfied with how "all or nothing" fragment is as a term since it's more of a scale for us so, here ya'll go, terms utilizing the gemstone scale from Genshin. Free to use just credit us if posted somewhere else. Sliver: An unsentient bit of forming matter. Not 'aware' but technically 'alive.'. Can grow into a fragment with time and resources Fragment: A scrap of forming material a bit more alive than a sliver. Can start to express selfhood, thoughts, and feelings. Still very incomplete and hollow though. Chunk: A technically fully formed member. Exists on their own and has full memories of their life and identity, but a weak overall prescence in the system. Gemstone: A full form filled with matter and memory. These members often draw in all other forms of member existence to fill out even further, resulting in subsystems and facets that would not otherwise exist.
As a psychotic system who is quoigenic, please do not use psychosis as a scapegoat for your anti-endo sentiments. You do not get to sit there and say "endos are just psychotic, not actual systems". Our system experiences do not come from our psychosis, but even if they did, would that mean we deserve to be harrassed?
Delusions and hallucinations are worsened for a lot of psychotic people by active harrassment and/or denial. If someone actually is a system due to a delusion, they are just as real as anyone else because you know what? They feel like they are, and that will not be changed with any amount of yelling at them or putting horrible asks in their inbox. Their percieved reality is altered but they feel the experiences of being plural and we are not qualified to go around accusing people of being less real. Feeding into delusions can also cause harm and every psychotic person is different, but harrassment will not help anyone.
You let your hatred of a community of plurals just trying to exist bleed into ableism toward others who are already so stigmatised. You do not care about psychotic people or disabled people at large, you only care about pushing your hate forward. We are not your "gotcha" card.
Shipping off! Crystal-K001 headed your way!
Your crystal order is under the cut!
Been seeing some stuff in #systempunk. Just wanna say: the DSM-V does mention cultural and spiritual plurality as a thing :) it says that should the plurality stem from something other than trauma, to not diagnose with DID. So... Guess what, antis? The DSM-V says we exist, just that we shouldn't be diagnosed with DID because we didn't stem from trauma :) the DSM-V is more accepting of non-medical systems than you fuckers :) it also means that we are NOT stealing resources from traumagenic systems, we are NOT spreading misinformation by saying these systems stemmed from something other than trauma, and we are NOT invading your spaces.
You cannot be punk and an exclusionist. You cannot be punk and be against self-determination :)
That's just my two-cents though lol
