here are some polymind terms i’ve come up w, if there’s any questions lmk !

lings:

sexling: a mind based off sex and / or kink (it is neutral in nature but its job can determine whether its neg or positive)

kinling: a mind based off your kin (i wasn’t actually the first person to come up w this, i found other people using the same term)

spinling: a mind based off your special interest (autistic version of the fixling)

blankling: a “mind” that is somehow, no mind. i don’t think this type of mind would work if you have a central mind as i assume that mind would be the default, w a blankling its that there’s literally no one there to fill the body, there’s nothing stimulating enough to activate any part of the mind so you’re just in an ultimate neutral zone & just going though the motions. this happens mostly when i’m very drained at the end of the day but just stay up usually on my phone or watching something & there’s just. nada. a blankling would at most be able to have a job, type, and name. it is too blank to have any other defining characteristics. the name is just something you assign to refer to it. this includes not having empathy, emotions, not too many meaningful thoughts

disling: a mind centered around your disabilities or disorders. it may be just a version of you that has 1 of the disorders or disabilities you have as a whole, or it can be that disability or disorder as an entire being

illing: a mind that is centered around your chronic illnesses and works the same as a disling.

extra:

cover up: when a mind is too private, personal, or is only mainly activated around specific people but still wants to interact socially so you create a “persona” or a “cover up” to hind its true identity allowing it to still interact

blankslate: blankslate is technically a job, it’s to go w blankling. usually only a blankling will have the blankslate job, but you could technically create an OC that has no lore or personality to it or pick a random animal to have a visual of the mind & a name to give it and assign it blankslate. so it is possible for a blankslate to be something other than a blankling, it just needs to lack personality.

jobs:

packmate: specially w your partner and related to this flag

cheerbear: happiness, joy, good stuffs ! inspired from cheer bear from care bears

tiny: regressed version of yourself. usually to regain childhood

harm reducer: reducing ed & sh & such alike

groundskeeper: the keeper of grief & dysphoria. w grief referring to yourself, like loss of culture, never being able to develope a skill further etc

grave yard: the sponge of grief & dysphoria. the one who feels the emotions.

academic keeper: school related (or job related). mind who is active during class or work related situations

doctor: keeping info on your disorders, disabilities, or chronic illness’ or feelings towards them

teacher: role model like figure that shares knowledge (usually related to spinlings). basically professional yapper

shutter: outward shut down, usually because of feeling unsafe, attacked, going into an episode, or feeling like you upset someone so you shut down and just sort of. try to go invisible

cloud: deals w dissociation (day dreaming, zoning out, derealization, depersonalization) etc

obsidian: negative emotions sponge, soaks up all of the negative emotions. usually sad ones. similar to worry stone in the link below but more of sad, depressed, lonely, even jealousy

some terms:

netted: all the minds are connected to each other rather than connected to one “real” or “original” mind

parian: meaning each mind (or mode / state) is noticeably different from each other but not drastically (the in between option)

active: when a certain mind is active in the moment

hazy: not being about to tell which mind is active

swap: when something activates a new mind. ex: you were hanging out w your friends so maybe your jokester or butterfly mind was out but you just found out you have a test tomorrow, you swap from the previous mind to school / work mode

blankslate: something i created, but means there’s no mind there but the body is still awake so you’re sort of just. there. going through motions w no real thoughts, intentions, or emotions going on.

i hope i did it right,, sorry for how long this took i got super caught up -netted (?) -general polymind or parian,, -blankslate -swap (example used being thinking of valentines day being soon and, in turn, remembering your partner) (i think i did this right,,)

They can't, but for us, we get heavily influenced by whoever is active!

So, while we were on that walk, we were incredibly tempted to keep going deeper into the forest because Idalia was active and wanted to go deeper. We nearly did because we were so tempted, but didn't.

just learned about polyminds

shits very interesting ngl, very cool thing

i read this carrd about it cuz yea, its got the basic gist of what a polymind is.

people are truly interesting when it comes to concepts that are similar to plurality and stuff. Like damn, our brains do be like that sometimes huh

(fyi btw, polyminds arent systems nor do they want anything to do with the system community. Saying this before someone comes raging into my askbox 😭)

Why don't endos just be polyminds ? This is exactly what I have been wanting the endo community to do. A community completely distinguished from CDDs, they don't use CDD terms, nor relate themselves to systems in any way. And yet, they still are their own community, with their own ideas and way of living that isn't making a mockery of a serious disorder(s), nor spreading misinformation about said disorder(s).

Polyminds are actually so fucking cool. I genuinely do not understand why endos don't just identify as polymind. That would solve this entire issue.

No more stealing terms that refer to a disorder and muddying up the definitions, no more invading spaces for traumatised individuals, no more spreading of serious misinformation.

Hey gang!

Just wanted to stop in to give a quick update on the future of this fuckass pile of highfalutin bullshit I've been ill-advisedly allowed to call a "Music Career."

Basically, it's all a bit weird and I don't wanna commit to any specific long-term project or idea at the moment... so I'm not going to! To that end, I'm going to temporarily pause the Majora's Mask album, and instead start taking everything on a much more step-by-step, case-by-case basis. I've had so much damn fun with the last two songs and I'd be plain stupid to not take advantage of the flexibility I've been afforded, so I'm gonna spend the foreseeable future making the music I make best: whatever music I want at any given time. The key notes, however, are this:

It won't be Tally Hall, CCCC or HMS related (sorry!)

Majora's Mask isn't a priority but there's no guarantee I won't go ahead and make one or two more songs for the album. Whatever the case, the album will not be completed any time soon.

My gut says there are gonna be a good handful of originals! But again, the point is that there is no point, there may be a few covers, or some other random stuff, who knows!

The wait in between songs and ideas may or may not fluctuate (again, I don't know) but I'll try my best to keep everyone updated after each release.

New song in approximately 2 weeks! Get keen. Or don't. Idc dude it's up to you.

uuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

That's basically it! I'm going to continue working just as hard as ever, the boulder will just be a bit more amorphous and the hill a little more winding than usual.

That's all!

Stay cool, stay kind, and stay funky.

TL;DR - the next few months or so are gonna look like this:

I'm a freak in the she/ets.
