Cron fronting the most on Monday. Out of context fucking funny to me.

Talk about how many of us are abandoned not just by broader society, but by our own communities because our experiences are considered "too weird," "too cringe," or too inconvenient for respectability politics.

Talk about how some plurals will happily throw us under the bus in hopes that sacrificing us will make them appear more believable, more legitimate, more acceptable.Talk about how being told "that's impossible" or "that's just psychosis" is often treated as an acceptable response, even by people who know what it feels like to have their own experiences denied.

Talk about how "endogenic" became a catch all category for wildly different experiences and beliefs, flattening an enormous diversity of perspectives into one caricature that people can easily dismiss.

Talk about how countless communities and frameworks that once tried to give language to the breadth of plural experiences were mocked, demonized, or abandoned because they were deemed too strange, too embarrassing, or bad optics.

Talk about the way people treat plurality as though it must have one acceptable explanation and one acceptable narrative, and how anyone who exists outside that narrative is expected to either lie, stay silent, or leave.

Talk about how many cosmological and metaphysical plurals feel forced to choose between authenticity and community, because speaking openly about our experiences means risking ridicule from singlets and exclusion from other plurals alike.

Talk about how treating trauma based plurality as the only legitimate form of plurality reinforces the same rigid ideas about personhood and consciousness that have historically been used to invalidate all plural people.

Talk about how "I don't personally believe that" too often becomes "you are dangerous, delusional, or hurting the community simply by existing."

Talk about how respectability politics have never protected marginalized people. They have only created new outsiders.

Talk about how some of us spent years hiding, not because we were ashamed of who we are, but because we learned that even among people who understood multiplicity, there were experiences they considered unacceptable.

Talk about how disagreement does not justify dehumanization.

Talk about epistemic humility. Talk about the limits of human understanding. Talk about how nobody possesses a complete theory of consciousness.

Talk about how plurality has always been more diverse than any one framework, diagnosis, belief system, or community would like to admit.

Welcome to the Interli Plural blog.

This blog is dedicated by the android app for plural systems.

What can the app do?

Interli Plural got front tracking, mood/activity tracking, to do lists, notes, an intern social media, (push) notifications. front notifications. Entirely customizable colour palette. Export data in PDF's, calendar. The best: You can see statistics/notes/to do's individually per member !!!! but also globally system wide.

There are a lot of other items on the list to be added in the future.

For who is the app?

Interli Plural is in the foundation for plural systems. Me; the developer is not going to moderate who's using it. If you can use the app cause you need a free mood tracking app. Won't be stopping you. If you're a writer and want to use this for worldbuilding, go ahead. The foundation is to make this app the most useful app for plural systems to encourage communication, daytracking, discovering roles and just to make life easier for them.

What about the privacy?

Interli Plural runs offline, stores data on your device directly. (you can manually upload it to a cloud, but that doesn't happen unless you do it all by yourself). Default backups are made on the device. Interli Plural doesn't connect to internet, except if you've picture links or other links added to your pages. Your own data does not get send anywhere. which also means if you delete all your data. I can't do anything for you. You had to make your backups and store them somewhere save.

Only an android app?

Yup. If you want an ios version or have it on a website. You either need to find a developer who can do that or learn to do it yourself. With that said. You can literally find the code on Github (be aware it is Kotlin and Kotlin-code is pure android)

Does it cost money?

Interli Plural is 100% free to use and will stay that way in the future.

If you want to drop a donation, you can.

Who's the developer?

The name's Rey. Full it's Royal-Rey. You can call me Royal or Rey, whatever you like. One of the two parts' enough to grab my attention. The rest of the sys has nothing to do with the app, Cron might advertise. This is my project so if you hate it. Don't go after them. You got to face me.

Why am I (Rey) making the app?

To say in my own words: Got pissed off that SP quits and there weren't decent alternatives around that got the stuff our system want to see in an app. What we missed in other apps were the front notification. But we also had stuff we just generately wanted to be able to see: Like tracking how members in the system actually are doing, what their purpose might be.

Since when did the app development begin?

It's been slumbering for a while, but since April 2026 it's made more serious turns and May 2026 the first public discord releases.

The github app releases started in June 2026.

Great! Great! how can I help improve the App?

Most recent App releases happen for now through the discord server. The app is in full development, discord gives the option to stand close to the users, act quickly on bugs/questions. And generally is a good way to interact with the users.

I don't want to spread it all around the internet meaning I'd miss signs of what I could improve. So: Discord for improvements, bug mentions, general app feedback and questions

(also please make your tumblr review posts to spread about Interli Plural, positive/negative/be honest!).

Download the app?

download from the Discord server is recommended (for development reasons)

Download from the Github page (if you don't want to use discord, I recommend Discord for the latest version and general latest news and interaction)

Drop by in the asks for questions or dropping reviews.

Spread the word and let anyone know about Interli Plural

When I discovered my system almost a decade ago I referenced older resources, and dabbled mostly in the DID/OSDD community. We called ourselves "multiple" at the time, because that's the only term we encountered. We dipped from tumblr for a long while and when we came back "plural" was ubiquitous, especially in the inclusive spaces we now gravitate to. I picked up using it myself because I do actually prefer it, but like... was that a sudden event (that I may have missed by being offline or in the wrong spaces) or a gradual change?

Ironically, both plural and multiple have a long history in the community, it seems. We mostly know of plural history things thanks to old websites (and web archives of old websites). We didn't really dive into the plural community until about 2010-ish, and aspects of the plural community may very well could be older than even the otherkin community even. So there is a lot of history we ourselves just don't know (or we don't have the sources to backup our thoughts, which is something we always strive for when we say/write things).

What we can say is that "plural" has existed alongside "multiple" since at least the early 2000s.

A few examples of things we have on hand include:

2007: An article titled, "Divisions in Plurality, 1.0" was written by Kerry Dawkins for the Ex Uno Plure website. In the article Kerry describes the make-up of the plural community at the time, noting there "seem to be three ‘camps’ – the MPD/DID camp, the natural multiples’ camp and the soulbonders’ camp." Throughout the article the word "system" is used for the different kinds of plurality regardless of origin, for example using the term "soulbonding systems."

Dawkins, Kerry. "Divisions in Plurality, 1.0," Ex Uno Plure, 2007, https://web.archive.org/web/20150306082026/http://www.exunoplures.org/main/articles/divisions-in-plurality-1-0/ .

2004: The webpage, "Multiplicity According to the Qilora," includes the use of "plurality" both in the url and in the text of the page itself; the first question in the FAQ even starting off with "What Is Multiplicity / Plurality?" Qilora, " "Multiplicity According to the Qilora," 2004, http://web.archive.org/web/20041102054238/http://qilora.com/QILORA_POPULUS/plurality_faq.html .

2001: An instance of a webpage from Astraea's Web with the url including “plural” dates back to October 2001. This webpage contains use of both “plural” and “multiple.”

“Astraea's Web Multiplicity Resources & Controversy,” Astraea's Web, 16 October 2001, https://web.archive.org/web/20011021152719/http://www.astraeasweb.net/plural/ .

The plural community's always been very spread out, nebulous, and flexible, but our longstanding vibe and perception has been that plural is the umbrella term describing practically any experience of being "more than one" whether that be DID, DDNOS/OSDD spirit possession, mediumship, tulpamancy, median systems, and more. Whereas "multiple" is more specific to experiences where a body contains more than one distinct and separate persons; a description not all of the formally mentioned things fit within.

BUT! Other people's mileage may vary. If the plural community has been consistent with one thing, its always been consistent on having different opinions and perspectives on what terms mean what (sometimes even in the same system...)
