The black and white have been swapped for light-to-dark greys, to symbolise nuance instead of extremes, the colours flipped to the face the opposite direction, and filtered to not be a replica of the radnormal flag.

A list of some things an antinormal opposes includes: allonormativity, amatonormativity, bigotry and discrimination, censorship, cisnormativity, cringe culture, harassment, heteronormativity, mononormativity, perinormativity, racism/colourism/xenophobia/etc. (yes, this counts under "bigotry and discrimination, but I know topics of race and culture tend to go unmentioned, so I think it deserves to be highlighted, not as different, but to not be forgotten amidst "more queer-centric" forms of bigotry and discrimination), radnormal/radqueer, T/SWERFism, transmedicalism.

A list of some things an antinormal supports includes: being "cringe" and free, "contradictory" labels like lesboy/bigay/FTF/etc., fetish/kink/paraphilia (not necessarily as "queer", but as partner communities which have helped one another), intersex, LGBT+/LIOM/MOGAI/NCWOB/QAI/etc., neopronouns, otherkin/adjacent, recovering in your own way and at your own pace, transandrophobia theory, xenogenders.

These lists may include more, per antinormal. You may assume that unmentioned stances are considered neutral, are viewed with more nuance, or vary per antinormal.

Me:

When I can’t sleep, or breathe from the fear and grief choking my mind...

I like to make pancakes.

Pancakes are normal. They’re what every good wife and mother make for their family. Right, pancakes.

I beat the lumps out of the batter, my frustration with you, with normal, becoming fever pitched.

I’m not normal.

On mornings like these, I like to make pancakes.

I like to pour myself into the mold of the face you present to the world. I like to pretend that you actually love me, like you said all those times when I made pancakes before, before, BEFORE.

Before I realized that I wasn’t normal.

The beating of my heart is constant, my love infinite. It’s not a whisk to be put down, a syrupy treat to be enjoyed on the rarity that someone makes the effort to...

Enjoy me. I am extraordinary.

On mornings like these, I like to make pancakes. They aren’t perfect. They mock me, and I smile.”
