She/her (singular), they/them (plural), other pronouns available as DLC Game dev, programmer, writer, musician | 22-year-old autistic transfem Currently working on: ASWTESCY (send commands!!), Inscrybed, some musical experiments
I'm Meadow, a game dev/chiptuner/writer/pixel artist who posts about that occasionally but mostly uses this blog to reblog things; a proper tagging system might exist eventually
I'm also into a lot of different fandoms, including but not limited to Undertale/Deltarune, In Stars and Time, Magic: The Gathering, and the Cosmere, there are a bunch of others but those are the most active ones, other than that I have some other niche interests that I will gladly talk about given the opportunity
I also run a little interactive web adventure, you can find it at @aswtescy-adventure! It runs on reader commands, so feel free to submit one ^^
Also I'm actually several things, more on that below the cut
System intro
👾Lux (they/she)
The one writing this whole post, I'm one of our hosts and the most active poster, I also have a sideblog at @normalest-lux-ever, be warned because it does have (tagged) NSFW and (tagged) Negative Opinions
☀️Summer (she/her)
Our caretaker, another of our hosts, and my twin sis, Summer is basically a constant beam of sunshine that everyone loves, she likes writing and art the most out of all of us, and she also loves animals and anything else she thinks is cute or pretty; she has a sideblog at @all-that-summer-had-to-say where she mostly posts about writing or reblogs anything she finds cute, be warned because she does think bugs are cute but she tags them appropriately
🍂Autumn (she/her)
Our third and final host, Autumn was discovered much later than Summer but together the two of them make up the September subsystem; Autumn's pretty similar in a lot of ways but more free-spirited and with more of a backbone, she also likes working on music and UI design, and is better at relaxing than Summer
Autumn here!!! I also like political theory and RPGs, and I have a sideblog that's mainly for posting about my interests at @autism-season (✿^‿^)
💞September (she/her, maybe plural they/them?)
We usually have one person in our sub-front at all times and switch infrequently, but sometimes we co-front and merge into a single presence in the front! It's kind of like fusion from Steven Universe, in a way?
Also, we're dating!!!
📝Jenny/Morgan (she/her)
Formerly a co-host but she's faded more into the background in recent months, Jen is great at exercise, manual labor, kissing me (Lux), and sounding like she swallowed a thesaurus; she's also pretty good at communicating with the current fronter or co-fronting, usually me but she's hung out with Summer and Autumn too
🌕Winter (any)
Our anger holder, we've had some conflicts but we're generally pretty cool nowadays, kinda the only one to have any masc leanings but ze's indicated some interest in femininity, she hasn't really had much of a chance to explore gender yet tho so he uses any pronouns for now
✨Loop (they/them)
Fictive from In Stars and Time, they mostly talk to me (Lux) and encourage me when needed, they also love talking to other Loops
💖Mew Mew (she/her)
🌼Daisy (she/it)
Fictive from Deltarune, adding myself to our pinned because I formed after it was written! I'd say more about my identity, but I don't want to spoil the game for anyone, mew...
💣Maddie (she/her)
Fictive. Figuring myself out. Ask me later.
Ouppy
💜Violet (she/her?)
Smaller version of me (Lux), she's only come out a few times, she's kinda me and kinda not, idk I just try to make sure she's safe and happy when I see her
💙Luci (she/her)
Missing person, presumed to be some snapshot of our 16-year-old self but hasn't been heard from in a while

god i wish more sources talked about "sex" hormones like this
ironically its in a book about female sex anatomy that ive come across it (Vagina Obscura by Rachel E. Gross). everyone only wants to focus on the secondary sex characteristics and not the bazillion other functions of estrogen, testosterone, and co.
every body uses both of them!! for a million reasons!!!!! aaaaaa!!!!!!!
efforts towards a "positive vision of masculinity" or whatever are so funny because what these guys are trying to figure out is literally "what's a way of being a good person that's Not For Girls™"

The thing about the way people talk about the "cognitive effects" of AI use on this website is that 9 times out of 10 the way they do it leaves me thinking "damn friend you were *really* itching for a largely uncontroversial way of calling people 'retarded' huh"
rn I can't find the screenshot I took, but the other day I saw someone (who as far as I could tell had never even mentioned using AI for anything) say they didn't understand something only for another person to reply with something like "this is what you get when you're unable to read anything without getting chatgpt to summarize for you" and like sorry but at that point what would have been the actual difference between that and just calling them the fucking slur?
The post in question wasn't even about AI at all, nor did person A mention using AI anywhere, so it's clear person B is just bringing it up out of nowhere as one of their go-to ways of insulting people's intelligence. Which like. When you get down to the underlying implications I don't think trying to insult someone's intelligence by invoking the idea of them having an atrophied brain from using too much chatgpt is meaningfully less ableist than doing so by invoking the idea of them having a developmental disorder.
Tumblr users will see a post about how you shouldnt try to come up with a new way to call people retarded and comment all the new ways they've come up of calling people retarded

Fun fact for anyone who does this, being a misogynistic man isn't funny just because you're trans or you think the idea of treating trans women like women is inherently funny, how funny do you think she finds your "ironic" misogyny when you punch down on the women that don't have cis privilege over you
#reblog
#trans inclusive misogyny is one of my favorite bits
#i love doing it to one of my girlies like sorry honey the men are talking
#why don't you get us a coffee babygirl
#and its like a group of tboys and nbs saying this
#its so dumb and it cracks me up immediately
#i love dodging slaps and jabs like a looney tunes character
I've been watching this post blow up, and it looks like it's getting at least one transmisogynistic subtweet now. (@_@;)
[ID: A Tumblr post that reads as follows:
absolutes are boring
yes i can say heinous shit to my friends i would NEVER say to anyone else bc there is CONSENT and my friends and i have existing relationships and trust and boundaries and ongoing conversations about this language and what it means to us in various contexts (not just humor)
and quite frankly it pisses me off and makes you irrationally angry what conversations me and my friends have that you can't even fucking hear ... good
if you have your head that far up your ass to ensure you're the center of your universe, you may need to get a whiff of something other than your own bullshit
#purity politics #cancel culture #absolutism #oh my god shut up #politics #this is about a lot of things #but it was specifically inspired by prejudice against trans men #youo're [sic] not edgy for hating trans men just bc they're men #omg #unfollowed immediately #only didn't block because i kind of hope they see this #text pst #txt post #text post #text only #thoughts]
i joke but let's make this clear, this is quite literally the opposite of the truth. i have seldom if ever felt welcomed into the "trans community" as a trans woman. i felt much more welcomed when i was in the closet, whether it be when i was calling myself agender and was reluctant to ever explore femininity even while i was taking estrogen, or when i ran fully back into the closet and was presenting as a queer man.
this is such a clear example of the phenomenon of delving so far into a niche community that you forget what the actual status quo of the rest of the world is. these people are so committed to stalking and harassing a small group of transfeminists that they've forgotten that, in every other queer space besides niche tumblr friend groups, TME queers are the dominant voices. everywhere. it is so easy to find "women and fems" spaces that exclude trans women, it is so easy to find "afab only housing," it is so easy to find books and papers and studies and panels that include "trans voices" but never trans women. informational videos about hrt will be made promoting misconceptions about feminizing hormone therapy because they didn't include any transfem voices to talk about our own experiences!!
i actually firmly agree that there is no "trans community," i have felt that way for a long time. but it is not TME trans people who are reluctantly allowed to sit silently at the table, and you all know it. stop pretending that trans women have any institutional power under any circumstances, you're just mad at feminists on tumblr because you're a fucking misogynist.
I know this might be wild news to TMEs who love weaponizing antiblackness to "disprove" transmisogyny, but Black cis women don't stop being cis because they're Black (and to believe otherwise is just misogynoir tbh).
Black cis women benefit from transmisogyny just as white trans women benefit from antiblackness. For people who love whining about "oppression olympics" these people sure do love viewing intersectionality as a ranked oppression leaderboard rather than in gradients.
What would you do if you were scrolling through recommended tumblr posts and one was from someone you don't know and it was just a picture of your dad captioned "fucking hate this guy" and it had hundreds of notes

Hey, if you’re disabled (of any kind), Mad/Insane, or “undiagnosed but there’s definitely something happening”, please come read this.
Especially if you’re a disabled transfemme. I know that as of writing, we’ve had a shitty couple days.
And if y’all can share it otherwise, whether that’s reblogging this or sending the link to the disabled/mad/whatever we are people in your life, I’d really appreciate it.
People who hate on TME/TMA terminology love to use the "is a homeless white man more privileged than Oprah" argument but slightly rephrased and act like this makes them more aware of intersectionality
