Okay so Saturday uploads, today its one short comic later today and this: Juniper and Valerie... The characters my lovely followers named!
Tumblr media
Juniper and Valerie are a stand in for things i don't feel like i can express myself, they are both me and neither are me, they are all my friends and my romantic interests, my fears and my desires. They are whatever i need them to be for now...but maybe one day they will get thier own full stories, who knows?

plural culture is the euphoria of being called your name for the first time. (YOUR name, not the host or singletsona's name!)

do you think plurality will become widely accepted any time soon? i fear that my plurality will have to be hidden from most people my whole life. i wish i could tell our parents but i feel like they would immediately take me to a mental hospital..
i wish plural education could move faster lol
Widely accepted? I wouldn't count on it anytime soon. Sorry.
As Ghandi never said: "first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win”
While the quote isn't from Ghandi, it is still a pretty accurate one for how movements tend to go. And the problem is, we're still in the ignoring stage with a side of mockery.
Before we can get widespread acceptance, we need widespread awareness. And when we get widespread awareness, the biggest roadblock we'll encounter is direct opposition. Because then we'll be a threat. We'll be trying to change things. We'll be demanding our headmates be acknowledged as individuals and called by their names, and that's going to make certain people, especially on the Right, extremely uncomfortable. I'm sorry to say that they will lash out.
When Tulpamancers are being smeared not by randos on Tumblr or r/systemscringe, but by Sean Hannity, that's when you can know that the real fight for plural acceptance has started. And everything we've gone through before that has just been a prelude.
And then it will probably drag out for years after that.
But while that prospect is scary, I think it will be necessary for getting to where we need to be.
...
But just because society isn't there yet and won't be for a while, that doesn't mean your parents won't be. Plenty of people have come out to their parents successfully. Others came out unsuccessfully, and then their parents warmed up to the idea later.
I would advise waiting until you're an adult if you aren't already, because parents have a lot of power over minors in their care, and things could go very badly. Best not come out, if you think they would react badly, while they have power over you. Additionally, I don't know if your system is traumagenic or not, but if it is, coming out to parents who may have been involved in that is probably a bad idea. Caution is advised.
...
One more thing, while that quote wasn't from Gandhi, I really love the speech it's believed to have originated from.

Plural acceptance may not come quick! It may not come easy! But it will come, and we are all a part of it just by being here and being ourselves!
The future is plural!
No matter how far off that future may seem!

A fun fact to anti endos who I know probably scroll these tags!
Someone you think is anti endo, too, could be endogenic themselves! We would know, we have anti endo friends we made before realizing our origins! We love them deeply though and just play the part instead of losing them. That doesn't make us any less non multigenic now does it? Exactly >:)

plegg culture is having an imaginary friend when you’re 11 and then finding out about plurality four years later and still taking another year and a half to figure out that your imaginary friend was never quite imaginary

Prompt #1,599
Character A writes fanfiction, often taking experiences from their own life as inspiration for what to write about. While reading the comments on their latest update, they happen to notice a trend... But what on earth is a system, and why are so many readers talking about how the main character sounds like one?

Here’s some positivity for proxy systems!
According to Pluralpedia, proxy systems are “where one functions as a singlet (or approximately close to one, such as a median system) due to a frontstuck host, yet all members of the system are completely distinct in the headspace.” Many systems may find that they function in this way! This post is for all the proxy systems out there!
🧡 Shoutout to willogenic, paromancy, imagian, or other willfully created proxy systems!
💛 Shoutout to systems who are writers, artists, or other creators whose headmates are characters who are unable to switch or front!
🤍 Shoutout to proxy systems with headmates who wish they could switch!
💜 Shoutout to proxy systems whose members often cofront, blur or blend together, or are coconscious!
💙 Shoutout to proxy systems who love, embrace, and celebrate the way their system works!
🧡 Shoutout to protogenic proxy systems, or those who have always been plural even if no one but the host has fronted!
💛 Shoutout to proxy systems who identify as specutien or have some other specific labels for their experience as proxy systems!
🤍 Shoutout to proxy systems with vast, complex headspaces, and to proxy systems with no headspace whatsoever!
💜 Shoutout to those who are questioning whether or not they are a proxy system!
💙 Shoutout to hosts of proxy systems who work hard to help their headmates live the lives they want to live, even if they can’t fully front!
🧡 Shoutout to proxy systems who prefer to present as a singlet in their daily life for their own comfort and/or safety!
Proxy systems have always been and will always be valued, cherished, and integral members of the plural community! To any proxy system who reads this, please know that your system is real and you are valid, regardless of how you experience plurality or the ways in which your system functions! It’s okay if most of your system members interact with the world through your system’s host. That doesn’t negate the validity of your system in any way, shape, or form!
We hope that every proxy system out there can have an amazing day today. Know that you are so loved, and you make the world and our spaces a better place simply by existing in it! Regardless of how your system came to be, you are special, your system is beautiful, and we are so pleased to be able to share this wonderful, diverse community with you. Please keep you chin up, have some pride in your system and how it works, and do you best to take care of each other!

personally we really dislike being part of a system, we all kinda wish we had our own individual bodies and that having to share a brain with others, especially knowing half of us don’t get along, is something that we wish we didn’t have to do.
we wish this wasn’t our reality.
i see very few systems talk about feeling this way publicly, but this is how we feel about it.

Questions for Sophie and Ghost. The first one for him: Do you ever feel guilty for identifying with the body and being able to go by your name when your systemmates cannot? In the real world, people get to experience you as yourself but your systemmates can't have that in most circumstances. Now for Sophie: Do these circumstances upset you? How do you cope? Our body's frontrunner always feels bad about this fact. Systemmates have to mask as HER irl for safety reasons because she is in meatspace most of the time and as such people are used to her personality/name/mannerisms/etc. She---and all of us---wish there was a world where we didn't have to hide themselves.
Ghost: I've felt guilty for Soph not getting much time sometimes. But I try not to feel guilt for things that are out of my hands. I feel bad that she doesn't have a body of her own to be part of the world, but not guilt.
Sophie: It is what it is.
To be honest, we don't really have many IRL social ties outside of the family. And that's something we're totally fine with. Maybe our brain is wired weird, but we don't have much desire to make physical friends. Aside from that, I feel my social needs are met on the internet.
There have been times when I wished I could interact with the family a bit. But then, it's my own fears holding me back. The family knows I'm here. And they seem accepting enough. I'm just not comfortable with it. My host has severe social anxiety when dealing with other people, and it feels a bit like I got something like that with his family.
So the only people outside of the system I want to interact with as myself, I could... if I were stronger. But I'm not.
If I'm honest, I sometimes feel like a hypocrite. Because for all the time I spend trying to spread awareness of plurality so that we can eventually get to that world where plurals won't have to hide anymore... I don't think I would be brave enough to be fronting and be myself even then.
But with that said, I think I'm comfortable with how things are for the most part.
...
As for you all, I just want to add that singlets are probably not as observant as you think they are. Even if you have to mask and use her name, unless they know you're plural, you can probably get away with a lot before they notice anything off. And if they do say anything about it, it's easy to brush it off, and they'll probably accept whatever explanation you give. "I'm just not feeling like myself" is a fun one. 😜

grown-ups want more tattoos, littles want more tattoos (they're like stickers that last forever), everyone wants more tattoos so that sounds like a win-win
time for more tattoos
