My System naming plushies:

This is Smidgen. She’s a precious little lamb and is the purest bean in the known world.

This is Mildew. He knows only how to create mischief and if you harm him I will detonate you.

…oh yeah and that’s Twitch Chat.

Are you supportive of endogenics it doesn't say anywhere and I can't tell if I need to ignore the blog or not (no offense I just don't fw endos)

Hi there, anon! We are a traumagenic system and we believe that plurality only develops through trauma. We do not police what kind of trauma is “enough” to cause plurality. We also don’t believe that all “endogenic” systems are faking (they may not have access to the memories of the trauma that they went through or they may be experiencing other forms of dissociation or mental health concerns), so we don’t go out of our way to attack anyone based on their system origin. I hope that makes sense.

We’re bodily 35 - it can be hard to find other systems about our age. But we will keep trying!

Adult Sysculture is looking for system friends that are youre age and arent freaks.

Oh that one likes kids!

Oh that ones an endo!

Oh that one doesnt know how to communicate and doesnt want to learn-

WHERE ARE ALL THE COOL SYSTEMS WE CANT BE THE ONLY ADULT SYSTEM THAT HAS NO INTEREST IN CHILDREN

We are technically an adult system but we're still only 19 so it depends how much you count that as an actual adult lol

But we get that struggle. We get it very much

OP might look into nail rings for 🌺! Just a thought - I didn’t even know they were a thing until recently!

silly system culture is some of us wanting those really long pretty bejeweled fake nails and the rest of us who would fight anyone who tries to put them on /silly

(🌺 really wants some but I, 🍃 cannot have my nails long at all)

Make a poll to decide and the looser shall start the silly kingdom /pf

Hope you can decide soon and that doesn't become a big problem, good luck!

I guess we have a BMO fictive who’s like a translator for headmates who don’t speak or don’t speak English.

The thing about being an autistic system undergoing a host change is that now all our former safe foods don’t taste the same and we have to figure out safe foods all over again…

The entire system tonight. Even Fiasco.

Our partner and I joke about this by saying “Stand users attract stand users.”

We’ve noticed over the years that plurals tend to sorta… flock together. Even as egg cartons/pre-syscovery. As an egg carton we had a friend group that was mostly other plurals; initially all of these plural friends were unaware of their plurality, but slowly things became unveiled and they came out as plural. There were also singlets present, but A WHOLE LOTTA PLURALS TOO

Later when that friend group inevitably began to fall apart (~60-80% our fault, we got better though I swear), we branched out to other communities and interests for reasons that would likely de-anonymize me, and the rp we joined was populated nearly entirely by plurals and egg cartons.

Apparently, according to our mentor system, they have a habit of, as they put it, “accidentally hitting people with the plurality beam.” (Or, discovering a person they met was masking as a singlet, or being the snowball that leads to someone abruptly realizing they’re plural.)

So, is this something you’ve also noticed?

haha, honestly? we've noticed it too, in the past. our closest friends for about 3-5 years (a long time ago, when we were pre-system discovery as well) turned up to be plural, last i can remember. we had a best friend for about two years who was also a system, like ourselves, that we met coincidentally. in high school, said friend had a bit of experience with others questioning whether or not they are a system as a result of knowing them. we were never too public about our system, so i can't speak for us. maybe we are all like magnets. /j

but it is definitely interesting to hear of similar experiences. thank you for sharing your thoughts!

We’re rapid switching and blurry so we aren’t sure who is who in the following. So everyone is just “me”

THE TALE OF MOVING HOUSE: PART BATHROOM

Way Past Me: I will gather all the bathroom items in a handful of bags so it will be easier to get that room functional again quickly.

Past Me: I need more bags than I thought. I’ll need to empty a few. Good thing the bathroom stuff is all together! I’m going to dump it all INTO the bathtub so that I can’t avoid putting stuff away in here when I want to bathe.

Slightly Past Me: CURSE YOU, PAST ME. I JUST WANT TO BATHE BUT I HAVE TO PUT ALL THE BATHROOM STUFF AWAY FIRST.

Current Me: (in the bath, having plowed through everything in about a half hour) …Okay, Past Me. You win. That was smart.

Oop

me a few years ago: why do i feel like i just came into existence when i was 12 or 13? why do i not really remember my childhood very well? why do i have such a horrible memory in general? why do my identity and behaviors vary so drastically?

me now: oh

[galacticquiltsystem]

Talking to one of our dogs while we’re having a bath triggered some memories of pre-system discovery things that make so much more sense now.

Let me explain.

Valor very much enjoys stealing my towel while I’m bathing. He’ll dig around in it to make himself a little nest and then nap in the towel while I bathe.

So today I’m getting ready for a bath and I say “Oh boy, Valor! It’s time for your Favorite Thing!” referring to stealing my towel. But I know this is not actually his Favorite Thing. It is probably not even in his Top 5 Favorite Things. But because it’s something he definitely enjoys, I call it his Favorite Thing.

But that’s not what “favorite” means. A favorite implies a single thing that is liked more than all other things. People have favorite colors and movies and books and meals. And this struck me today. Examining my use of the word, I realized that I have always treated “favorite” in this way - as a way to describe something I “really really like” not necessarily more than all others. I’ve always had “multiple favorites” in just about every area of life. And I’ve always just written it off as an inability to be decisive or a quirk. Other people, at their worst, have described it as me being weak-willed, wishy-washy, or conviction-less.

But it’s none of those things.

It’s the fact that I’m plural. Of COURSE we’ve had multiple favorite movies for as long as we can remember. “The Care Bears Movie” has always been Madison’s favorite movie. That didn’t make Howl’s Moving Castle any less Aina’s favorite movie. Nor did Leigh developing an obsession with Frozen 2 make Aina’s favorite movie and less her favorite movie. But before we knew we were plural, it seemed and felt like we had multiple favorite movies. Or multiple favorite songs. Etc.

Now I’ve got thirty years of using “favorite” inaccurately to undo in myself. 🤣
