so we are a system without RAMCOA/OEA/TBMC trauma, but we have an alter that uses a number (not as a name usually, more of an assigned number) based on an ICD code
i won’t share the actual code, but a similar one (that i made up) would be D35 or something like that
we were wondering if this is offensive to systems with number name trauma? his number is based on some of our own trauma but it’s tied to medical trauma, not TBMC
sorry if this is a bit rambly
It’s not offensive to us. It takes the target off our backs and other survivors are able to hide in a crowd.
Yes, there’s trauma related to those number names, but it doesn’t just have to ramcoa/tbmc based.
The one thing I hate the most is people constantly saying that ramcoa systems are the only ones that can use numbers as names. It separates us from the crowd and makes us easier targets if people remember those numbers.
Use it, it’s a name.
That’s like others using colour coordination and stuff being offensive because of programs revolving around colours. No, it’s helping you organize.
I will always say it’s okay for any system to use a number name to help survivors hide and to make sure that there’s no separation to where people can find survivors easier. I might get attacked by other survivors or something but I don’t really care lmao
Use what’s comfortable.
Stares at @k9emote,,, we're not mutuals but this made us think of y'all /silly /pos

Dear humanity,
Please Help Me – My Son May Die at Any Moment.
I'm Amal, a mother of three children, living under the weight of the genocide taking place in Gaza. 🍉
Here’s my story, and I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart 💔✨, hoping someone will feel what my family and I are going through.
My son is suffering from a severe and life-threatening injury after being shot by Israeli drones. He urgently needs medical treatment outside Gaza.
Time is running out, and we are facing a critical situation. I am asking for your generosity to help us save him either through a donation or by sharing this urgent plea with others
I beg you, i kiss your feet, to help my son. My son may die at any moment
I lost most of my family. I'm afraid to lose my son too 🥺
Mohammed deserves to live a happy and healthy life, just like every other child on this earth.
So I humbly ask you to donate even a little or at least reblog this appeal.

Hehe we've been here since twas just a tiny blog, since the first post.. The orange text.. All those fun things, also lead me to remembering this masterpiece, which I still absolutely love
shock
Shhhhh I was mostly trying to find when we first requested anything from you, or the first post we followed you off of, it turned into- liking whatever we hadn't already- and found out we've been following- since you posted your first intro
when I drew this comic 3 years ago I had NO idea how far it would reach. I'm happy to finally share a corrected version with proper abbreviations, and even MORE state names of indigenous origin ♥️
however, the goal of this comic was to inspire people to do your OWN research on indigenous history. To question everything we have been taught, and everything that has been pointedly left out. This erasure, this “forgetting”, of history is not just of the past… it is happening now. - Across so-called Canada, the US, and US-occupied islands, native women are victims of murder at 10-12x the rate of non-native people, and are the most likely to go missing without being searched for by the law. - Native reservations have the highest rates of poverty in the US, with over HALF of tribal homes with no access to clean water (with more joining this list by the year) - Native people are 6-10x more likely to be unhoused than the rest of the population, and native teens suffer suicide rates higher than any other demographic. This list of modern day genocide goes on (thank you for compiling @theindigenousanarchist <3) and yet take a look at those environmental stats!
Native people manage to do SO much for the planet as a whole - thanklessly - and with all this stacked against them. Don't even get me started on kin fighting in south america. Could you imagine if there was help? #landback is resistance to genocide, and it is the key to saving our warming earth.
So look into it and the other hashtags, cuz a cartoon goose ain't a substitute for a proper education. Love to my grandparents who always kept a map of tribal territories of turtle island on their wall, to speaking on our Tsalagi & Saponi heritage. Love & solidarity forever, happy research, and happy #indigenouspeoplesday

(Also, if you care to support the artist, I'm publishing a book ! and writing another - a fantastical afroindigenous graphic novel - that I post exclusively about with tons of other art on my patreon.)

PAJAMA FACTZ RAAAHHHH 🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️
He's so zilly goofy cute, i luv him 🫶
Pajama factsssss!
So so like we said, it uses
- It/Its
- Shi/Hir
-Rot/Rots
Pajama's two nicknames are PB and PJ
Shi has insomnia, has one of those little nests of pillows and blankets BUT! When rot sleeps, it's ontop of the blankets, and using the pillows as blankets
Its little nest is in the back end of a closet
Oh oh! So Pajama doesn't have a mouth, and was made that way because our autism causes us to have an extremely hard time talking to the point where sometimes we just feel it'd be easier to communicate another way!
Oh! And maybe the most important! Pajama has a sibling named Quarter made by @thetetrisco a good friend of ours!
This is so painfully us
[Text: This system has a lot of fictives fronting at times.]

But in all seriousness, it's our birthday, we're 19 now, and man do I wish we weren't, we're too traumatized to be an adult adult
