literally plurality:

"WHOEVER BOTCHED THAT TEST I SWEAR YOU'RE GETTING SLIMED"

slime introject: it was me

"oh"

I didn't think I'd have to say this, but if these so called 'tolerant institutions' make disabled people have to jump through hoops like providing mountains of proof, dogpiling waivers and documents to sign, and asking for doctor's notes at every absence, no matter what institution they are, they are not as 'accepting' as they think they are.

Pretending you care is worse than not caring at all.

"DID is rare!" Try and figure out 1-1.5% of 7 billion. That's a huge number. It's not rare, just often misdiagnosed and neglected. "Isn't it weird how cases spike as soon as it gets representation??" Duh, because then people find out about it and get the treatment they need. "No, they're just faking it!" Okay? People can only fake being a system for so long, and if they are faking, it's usually because they don't get attention or proper care at home, among other things. Stop judging and start helping. "Only traumagenic systems are valid!" This exact mindset is the reason Octocon shut down on us, and why we're losing more plural tools by the day. Stop harrassing people for their acceptance; Plurality is a beautiful, varied concept! Not every valid system is traumagenic. In fact, mixed-origin systems have been around for so long that they're even seen in religions like Buddhism (the higher self concept)!

I'm sure we've all watched or heard of KPDH by now. I wanted to point out a quick thing that got my attention in the third or fourth watch!

One of the things that stood out to us the most in the song "This is What it Sounds Like" was the bridge: " Why did I cover up the colors stuck inside my head I should've let the jagged edges meet the light instead "

Y'all seeing what I'm seeing?! Colors = Alters. Jagged edges = the parts of plurality that often go unnoticed in plural joy; the dysfunction that occurs as a side effect when there are unruly, persecutory, or abusive alters. Rumi struggled with accepting the demon part of herself, and yet the more she denied it, the more it grew until it started to take away the one thing that mattered to her most - her voice. (I know, my quote integration skills are amazing. Thank yeww)

Anyway, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

Onyx signing off ‼️

There are so many characters in Ninjago that have SO MUCH potential. Akita, Harumi, Skylor and Seliel (from the comics) are characters that I personally felt could've brought a lot to the show, but nobody really bothered to point out that their stories were left incomplete.

We know in the last season of Ninjago, Harumi ends up joining forces with Lloyd to defeat the Overlord. We also know that DR is all about the original plot being interrupted by the Merge and all that.

But COME ON, at least add SOME KIND OF FORESHADOWING OR INDICATION WE'LL HAVE CLOSURE?!

I've given up all hope on Akita and Skylor atp but PLEASE at least let Harumi have a chance bro 💔🙏

YES, THAT'S RIGHT! We are a system i.e., multiple people in one body. Yes, it's real. No, I'm not faking it, and yes, I'm certain and professionally diagnosed. And in case you want to flood my comments to ask our system origin (highly invasive, but whatever), we're fully traumagenic. But don't go spreading your exclusionist rhetoric anywhere in this blog or I'll be forced to put into action the ancient, highly regarded wisdom of all internet users (block and move on with my life).👌THANK YOU!! Anyway, now that all that's out of the way, I suppose an introduction is in order. This blog is a documentation of my experiences with plurality as someone who masked for 8 years (but in the nice, entertaining format I've written this intro in. You're welcome.) Expect to see:

Random memes

Anime rants

A LOT. Of. Ninjago. Like, way too much. Like, genuinely DNI if you don't like it. (All jokes, I'm practically impossible to offend)

The Dragon Prince! I'm obsessed with it, PLUS we have two fictives from the show, so...Umm...Yeah. Expect that.

Cooking

Facts, statistics, and some little trivia about plurality:)

Anyway, thank you for reading this far! I'll post more in the upcoming days!
