being a system is the silliest because i will be literally having a breakdown sobbing on the floor but the right thing triggers me and suddenly fluttershy is cleaning my kitchen
Thank you caretakers but also can you be productive sometime else
If you can't handle me at my worst (really bad) then you don't deserve me at my best (slightly less really bad)
No thoughts only technoblade giving his cape to tommy to keep him warm but the cape is a bit too big bc Technoblade is a BIG GUY and Tommy isnt SMALL exactly but he’s definitely not technoblade-size so hes trying very valiantly to wear Technos cape all cool-like and pretend that he’s intimidating in this long flowing cape but also he is. Being drowned in the fluff. And hes tripping over the cape. Hes faceplanted in the snow. Techno wonders if he might’ve been better off without the cape at all, and he’s like “i can take it back” but Tommy is like NO NO I GOT IT and then he trips over it a second time
Having media literacy is more important than being good at math prove me wrong
"This language can be forced on plurals and systems in an invalidating way" and "this language is extremely validating to some plurals and systems" are statements that can coexist. I think so many people are familiar with the first that they forget the second. The harm comes from pushing parts language onto people, not from people choosing to use it because it resonates with them. It's equally as harmful to discourage someone using parts language for themselves because of how it makes you feel.
This is by no means a 1:1 comparison, but think of how some people find being called queer validating and empowering while others feel the exact opposite and would rather not. That is a choice they make based on how it makes them personally feel and what it means to them.
Hot take but we HATE how parts language is always talked down on, attacked, and torn apart by the plural community. Just because you don’t use it for yourselves doesn’t mean it’s bad or wrong!
Those who identify with parts language aren’t “less than whole.” They’re not “less than a person.” They’re not less than anything! They are systems and they are deserving of dignity and respect just like everyone else.
We use parts language and we are dismayed and greatly pained to see the plural community, OUR community, so quick to bash and tear down the language that we find affirming. It makes us feel left out of our own community, downtrodden and cast aside.

We have a separate sort of pocket dimension we call fragspace that's full of loose fragments, and that's generally where headmates form. They're not entirely mindless but they're relatively simple-minded and can generally be reduced to a personality trait or two. They are all managed by two people but it used to be one until we managed to get her to coax some fragments into forming an assistant for her. They're essentially waiting for a "foundation" to build on which is why we have so many introjects, so they kind of do take suggestions. I think it'd be more accurate to say it's an invitation? If I scrolled through a bunch of "build a sysmate" type posts we would probably get a ton of them.
Our original fragment manager is slowly going insane managing what are functionally a bunch of rowdy kids (from the little I've seen and heard at least) and we really need to strongarm her into taking another break... the last person to take over for her barely lasted a few hours.
Since they have basic personalities and tend to think out loud there's somewhat of a way to tell what kind of person they'll be. I remember her saying she stopped some from forming JD (Heathers) because their reasoning was wanting destruction and violence which isn't great.
Kind of wild to think most of us formed like that, since nobody remembers fragspace. Well, no one I've met anyway.
Questions for systems: What's something unique about your system?
I’m done w diagnoses there’s nothing wrong w me. I’m just a bit peculiar and eccentric
Finally looked into what radqueers are because I've been seeing the term everywhere and by gods I need to bleach my brain what the actual fuck
what came first the chicken or the egg except it's "was this OC based off an alter i didn't know about or is that alter an introject of said OC"
YEAHHH SYSTEMPILLED ORIGINMAXXER FLAG LET'S GOOOOO
