Caretaker

An alter who takes care of others, be it headmates or those outside of their system.

Exasperated Cartaker

Similarly to before, an alter who takes care of others, whether ir be headmates or those outside their system. However, this alter is usually irritable and fed up with their job / role.

Overview of some topics when it comes to drawing characters who are burn survivors.

DISCLAIMER. Please keep in mind that this is an introductory overview for drawing some burn scars and has a lot of generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. I'm calling this introductory because I hope to get people to actually do their own research before drawing disabled & visibly different characters, rather than just making stuff up. Think of it as a starting point and take it with a grain of salt (especially if you have a very different art style from mine).

Talking about research and learning... don't make your burn survivor characters evil. Burn survivors are normal people and don't deserve to be constantly portrayed in such a way.

Consider supporting me on ko-fi if you find this to be helpful.

Edit: How are people seeing this post where I specifically talk about burn survivors being normal, real people, and still tag this as "TW body horror"? Not a single one of these drawings or pictures is a fresh injury. All of them are healed. How the hell would you feel if someone tagged a photo of you as "trigger warning: gore"?

literally how does not respecting characters' pronouns make it easier. how.

[ID: Two flags with seven stripes: dark grey blue, grey blue, pale sea green, off-white, peach, dark rose pink, and dark mauve. The second flag has a black graphic of two crossed swords in the center of it. End ID]

A flag for incestophiles who are also anti-consang. Crossed swords can be used a symbol. ⚔️

(Consang = Consensual Sanguinamory = Consensual (IRL) incestuous relationships)

This should go without saying, but this is also against nonconsensual incest as well. This also isn't referring to incest in fictional works, as the fictional characters do not actually exist and cannot be harmed.

Please do not put my terms on radqueer archives. This is an anti contact, anti-consang flag.

THIS IS ANTI-CONSANG

[PT: This is anti-consang]

Idk if this counts. I'm just kinda pissed that there are no safe spaces for me to talk about my issues with OCD/para (I'm not sure which it is) without "NO!!!!! ITS IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO THINK ANYTHING SEXUAL!1!!1!1!1!1!1!1"

This is paramisia and ageism.

Also, are my asks getting eaten by Tumblr, or is there just a long backlog?

This is paramisia.

I remember quite a while back I watched a YouTube video about this girl who was an adult, but due to a disability (I think a tumor on the pituitary gland, something that interacted with hormones), she physically still looked like she was 7. She was talking about the struggles with people infantilizing her. Often getting dirty looks because she liked doing things that women her age often liked doing (ie wearing makeup, wearing skimpier clothes, drinking alcohol, ect).

In the comments section, there were so many people saying things like "Its sad she'll never be able to date or get married since she looks so young. Anyone interested in her would be a pedophile" or "shes gonna have to remain single forever, anyone interested in her would be gross."

This is physiableism, intersexism, and paramisia. It's deeply rooted in infantilization specifically. @this-is-infantilization

First and foremost, adults who don't go through puberty are still adults. I am sick and tired of the infantilization of people with growth disorders and intersex people with severe forms of hypogonadism and/or androgen/estrogen insensitivity.

Second, so what if an adult who has not experienced puberty decides to date a MAP? It literally isn't harming anyone, and it's not "creepy" if the non-pubescent adult is aware of their partner's motivation for dating them. They're both adults, they're both capable of making their own decisions.

" ACOMMUNAL "

(trm.) a term for those who do not feel a sense of community, or are repulsed by it.

coined for @drunkencombatmedic

I'm not the only one who just saw those videos as blatantly exorsexist, right? The people who posted them said they were just a joke, but it really came off as mocking the "weird" nonbinary people.
