accessibility info
i frequently reblog images without image descriptions and do not tag for this (i'm sorry about this /genuine). at some point in the near future i am going to try to focus more on including image descriptions in my reblogs
i do tag for flashing, eyestrain, unreality, reblog bait, and common triggers (suicide, self-harm, weight talk, eating disorders, mental hospitals, abuse, sexual assault, probably a few i'm forgetting). please let me know if i forget to tag!
i do not tag food or reclaimed slurs.
i inconsistently tag suggestive/mildly nsfw content (such as jokes, polls, artistic nudity, and sex ed posts) (there won't be full-on hornyposting or irl nudity here, that stays on my sideblog), irl insects and snakes, and politics/current events.
userboxes and decorations!
blinkies under the cut (eyestrain/flashing) as well as more about me!
about me!
(this section is a work in progress)
i'm a third-year college student studying biology in the central-southern US! my academic interests are in ornithology and ecology, as well as sociology and gender studies
i love birds and birding! birds have been my main special interest for about 4 years at this point, one of my longest running special interests. please talk to me about birds!!
my other interests include music (fav artists are cavetown and ajr, and i play trumpet and ukulele), video games (i like a variety of games but some long-term favs are genshin impact, powerwash simulator, subnautica, disco elysium, and a little to the left), crafts, collecting pins and art prints, and hanging out with my cat nova and my bf @caspergotlost!
i identify primarily as a queer trans guy (queer in both sexuality and gender). i'm also acespec, arospec, and on the polyam spectrum. i was lucky and privileged enough to get on T at 16 in May 2023, so i'm 3 years on T!
my primary disabilities include hEDS, depression, autism, and ADHD. i also have POTS and likely mild MCAS but they are both well-controlled currently and don't affect me nearly as much. i struggle with chronic fatigue, particularly mental fatigue and limited social battery, due to the overlap of several of my conditions. in my day to day life, i use a cane and knee braces. i am low support needs and work to listen to and uplift the voices of those who are higher support needs. i've hyperfixated on hEDS research (and EDS in general) several times, including an extensive class project, and am always willing to answer questions about it!
i'm a median system, which causes some fluctuations in identity and opinions as well as some memory issues. currently there's an unknown amount of asters (at least a couple dozen) that are each better at certain situations. generally i am not able to determine which aster is fronting at any given time so i don't distinguish us. i used to have more distinct headmates at a worse point in my life but they are mostly gone now.
politically i'm a leftist, still working out if there's any more specific ideology i align myself with. i support a free palestine, land back, and major prison and psych reform, among other things.
asks are always welcome! however i am not always good at answering them well or in a timely manner. you're welcome to dm as well but i'm not very good at replying due to anxiety.

12 years old: i was so cringe when i was nine, i'm super mature now though
15 years old: i was so cringe when i was twelve, i'm super mature now though. i'm a totally different person. i'm basically an adult
18 years old: i was so. (trying to be nicer to myself) fifteen. when i was fifteen. i wasn't an adult even a little back then. i'm an adult now though of course
21 years old: i was so newborn fawn taking its first steps when i was 18. i wasn't an adult at 18 i'm barely even an adult now tbh
23 years old: i was so. hey wait the others have all gone up in increments of three why'd it change
23 years old: because i'm still 23 so i can't speak to that experience yet
23 years old: do you think anything will magically change in the next few months to the point where you can't possibly imagine how you'll feel at 24
23 years old: i mean you never know. anything can happen. they're letting people born in 2002 turn 24, for instance
the mold spores in my house speaking to me telepathically: yeah that's perfect now hit post

the fact that i don't have the money to buy every fancy lego set ever is actually ableist (legos are a good activity to keep me mentally engaged while i'm physically fatigued) and transphobic (some of the flower sets are very gender)
okay i have a hypothesis but it's based on a sample size of two so i need more data
people with labia¹: are you hypermobile², and what length are your labia minora³? (clarification below)
not hypermobile; 0 cm (i have labia but no labia minora)
not hypermobile; 0.1-1.5 cm
not hypermobile; 1.6-3.0 cm
not hypermobile; 3.0-4.5 cm
not hypermobile; greater than 4.5 cm
hypermobile; 0 cm (i have labia but no labia minora)
hypermobile; 0.1-1.5 cm
hypermobile; 1.6-3.0 cm
hypermobile; 3.1-4.5 cm
hypermobile; greater than 4.5 cm
i do not have labia/results
Remaining time: 17 hours 30 minutes
¹ labia which have not been surgically created or altered. if you have had them surgically altered as an adult, such as with a labiaplasty or gender affirming surgery, and you know what size they were before, you can answer with the size they were before surgery. if you do not and have never had labia, then please choose the final option, not a 0 cm option! (the 0 cm option is for people with labia majora but no labia minora)
² for the purposes of this poll, i'm asking about generalized joint hypermobility, joint hypermobility syndrome, hypermobility spectrum disorder, hypermobile EDS, and other types of EDS causing hypermobility. localized hypermobility (in just one or two joints) does not count. if you're not sure if you're hypermobile, the beighton score is a fairly quick and easy assessment you can use, although it isn't perfect and will exclude some hypermobile people.
³ aka inner labia or inner lips. i was going to include diagrams to help with identification, but they made this post get hit with an automated content label before it even left my drafts, so i removed them and you can look up "labia anatomy" to find diagrams. a small mirror or your phone's selfie camera may help you see better down there if needed. if your labia minora are asymmetrical and/or have sections that are much longer than the rest (both normal and expected btw), estimate the average.
please reblog if you're comfortable so i can get a larger sample size, or tag other blogs who might be willing to reblog!
@v-hypospadias @certifiedsexed hope you don't mind the tags, i need more reach for science!! (i know tagging an intersex-specific blog here has a chance to skew my data, but i'm hoping it'll help the poll reach a larger sample size of hypermobile people with labia)
if your fandom/art zine needs a major crowdfunding campaign and is being printed in full color on archival quality glossy pages with a book-style binding, i'm sorry but i don't think you can call it a zine anymore

*through gritted teeth* when i do something wrong and am politely asked to change my behavior its just a simple request to fix a problem and not an indictment of my character. when i do something wrong and am politely asked to change my behavior its just a simple request to fix a problem and not an indictment of my worth as a human being
i often feel like that one jerma clip where he goes like "AH. i forgot i was streaming i forgot i was playing a game i forgot i was sitting in a chair i forgot where i was"
