Welcome to our blog!! (Note to selves: update pinned post.)
We are a median pluralflux endogenic collective.
DNI: meanies, p3dos, z00s, h0mophobes, pr0shippers, anti endos, anti plurals, nsfw blogs, 3d and SH blogs, vent blogs, people aged 20+ etc.
Note: Our DNI is built on what will keep us safe, if that includes you please do not interact with our blog, even if some of the things listed aren't inherently "bad" it's on there for a reason. please respect our boundaries.
I’m kind of always in front? Like, other people are there too sometimes, but I’m never fully not there. As far as I know, I’m the only one like this in my system. However, I can almost always talk to my headmates. Does anyone else experience this?
It's sorta like that with our main host, except it happens in co-con instead of the front.
Bet it happens to others who have shell headmates or similar types of headmates.
coming here to remind everyone that yes, endo systems are real system!
yes, endo systems are ACTUALLY plural!
yes, endo systems are backed by science!
yes, endo systems are valid and allowed to exist in any plural space they see fit!
no, endos are not stealing your resources!
no, endos are not “faking”, and even if they were, you have no right to harass or threaten them!
no, endos are not “glorifying abuse”!
no, endos are not just seeking attention!
no, endos are not taking over traumagenic spaces!
i’m saying this as someone who was at one point VEHEMENTLY anti-endo. i know both sides of the coin, and i know that one perpetuates more hate than the other. and yknow what i did instead of continuing to hate people i knew nothing abt? i did research!
and you can read some research i (and other systems) have done here and here!
do anti-endos realize that being endogenic isn’t all fun and games. like just a person’s plurality isn’t related to their trauma doesn’t mean it doesn’t effect them negatively.
also endogenic systems can have trauma… shocking… sowwy for scaring you anti endos 🥹🥹🥹🥹
An Individual is a headmate/person that is the “pre-plural self” but for whatever reason they have stayed even when a system has formed. Individuals are separate from system/s in a body. Plurals who have an Individual may shift between a system and Individual being more present/closer to front.
An Individual may view themselves as part of a system or they may not. Plurals may use the terms Systemflux or Pluralflux to describe the experiences of having and/or shifting between systems and individuals.
The time between shifting can last hours, days, and longer. This time period is called a Transition Period. During this time, it can feel as if the system/s and the Individual are blurring together.
An Individual can form their own system/sidesystem via Tulpamancy or other headmate creation methods. Furthermore, the brain can also form other headmates resulting in a sidesystem including the Individual. Whether or not the Individual continues to identify with the term, in the case that this happens is up to their own preferences.
This term is not a role but can be used as one if needed.
This can be seen as a subterm or label of Singlet.
Transition Period
Transition Period (Also known as a Transition Phase) refers to the time period when shifting occurs. Depending on how long shifting takes it can last anywhere between a few minutes to days, weeks or even longer.
Shifting
Shifting refers to the process that takes place during a Transition Period. It can cause blurring to occur between system/s and an Individual. Shifting may be quick or slow, lasting anywhere between a few minutes to days, weeks or even longer.
Shifting is similar to switching but Shifting is between system/s and an Individual, rather than between headmates of a system.

We have what we call “transition periods”. Where the system becomes more or less present and can be replaced by the OG guy/pre-plural self in a way. (Its weird idk man) During transition periods, things can be a bit crazy. Jacob/Jakob appeared today, during the current transition - closer to the system side of the spectrum.
They just randomly thought of the name while thinking they were nobody and everybody all at once and felt it fit them. And then now we have to a while till the next transition phase to see if they’re only around during those periods or if they’re even real :[
Does any other alterhumans/nonhumans get a sort of, feeling that they aren't supposed to be here? In the way of life expectancy?
Today I was thinking how it feels weird to be alive. Wolves have a life expectance of around 13-15 years on average. As we are bodily close to that age, it's kinda weird to "be alive" in way. It just weirded me out earlier and wanted to know if anyone else shares similar experiences.
I think its good to share more obscure way of experiencing therianthropy and alterhumanity. :]
Here’s some positivity for those whose plurality fluctuates along the plural spectrum!
Not every system looks exactly the same or functions in the same way. For many folks, their plurality may shift, fluctuate, or change over time or in different situations. These folks are still just as plural as anyone other system, and absolutely belong in our spaces and communities! So here’s to those whose plurality fluctuates across the plural spectrum!
🌈 Shoutout to those who identify as systemflux or pluralflux!
🦋 Shoutout to those who feel more or less plural when they’re around certain people or are doing certain things!
🌤 Shoutout to systems whose fluctuating natures make them question whether or not they’re actually plural!
🪷 Shoutout to dualconscious systems who sometimes forget about or have to hide their plurality for any reason!
🌈 Shoutout to gateway systems who are only plural when they have walk-ins or other visitors!
🦋 Shoutout to systems who split and fuse easily, causing them to sometimes identify as a singlet and sometimes identify as plural!
🌤 Shoutout to systems with complex dissociative disorders whose understanding of their own plurality shifts over time or causes them to use different labels at different times!
🪷 Shoutout to systems who blend and blur easily with each other, making it difficult to tell sometimes whether or not they’re plural!
🌈 Shoutout to those with imagination-based plurality whose system only manifests when one member imagines the rest of their headmates!
🦋 Shoutout to systems whose plurality fluctuates between median and singlet, median and multiple, singlet and multiple, or whose plurality shifts along some other kind of continuum!
🌤 Shoutout to those who worry that they’re “not plural enough” due to the way their system changes, fluctuates, or shifts!
🪷 Shoutout to systems who often have all of their members except the host or primary fronter coming in and out of dormancy!
Every system is beautiful, special, and unique in their own ways, and this absolutely includes those whose plurality fluctuates along the plural spectrum! If your multiplicity tends to shift or change over time, whether drastically or subtly, please know that you are still a valid and welcome member of the plural community, and we are honored to be able to share this space with you!
We hope that every system with fluctuating plurality can have a fantastic day today. Remember that your system is perfect and lovely just the way it is. Please know that we are rooting for you, we believe in you, and we are wishing the best for you in all that you do! Thank you so much for reading, and take care!
A note for those who have trouble measuring butter with a spoon as I do: one cup I am sixteen tablespoons. Butter/margarine bricks are usually a half a cup, so just cut one eighth of that amount
These are really good! And yes, for the love of god, if you have it use white sugar and brown sugar, add just a pinch of salt, and as many chocolate chips as you darn well please. Great with icecream, whipped cream on top, or a tall glass of milk (keep in mind you gotta eat it with a spoon, you can’t dip it in milk)
