We made it. Barely. But we made it. The weekend won’t be long enough. But hopefully it’s enough to get us through another week.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Look buddy, i’m just trying to make it to Friday.
We’re rapid switching and blurry so we aren’t sure who is who in the following. So everyone is just “me”
THE TALE OF MOVING HOUSE: PART BATHROOM
Way Past Me: I will gather all the bathroom items in a handful of bags so it will be easier to get that room functional again quickly.
Past Me: I need more bags than I thought. I’ll need to empty a few. Good thing the bathroom stuff is all together! I’m going to dump it all INTO the bathtub so that I can’t avoid putting stuff away in here when I want to bathe.
Slightly Past Me: CURSE YOU, PAST ME. I JUST WANT TO BATHE BUT I HAVE TO PUT ALL THE BATHROOM STUFF AWAY FIRST.
Current Me: (in the bath, having plowed through everything in about a half hour) …Okay, Past Me. You win. That was smart.
plural culture is i’m so tired of all this drama with another system but there are so many relationships between us and so much anger to get out and it’s all so frustrating

Someone was panhandling at a stoplight I always get caught at today. And when I handed over the couple dollars in cash I had in my wallet to him and he thanked me, I realized something.
I wasn’t afraid at all.
I had to think back. Because there was a time when I was so unreasonably afraid of homeless people that I unintentionally taught my Sheltie to bark at them because I would get so stressed out if I even got stopped next to someone panhandling.
And that was when it hit me.
That fear isn’t mine. It’s a former host’s fear. And her fear was because if people she knew could hurt her the way they did, she couldn’t even imagine what a stranger might be able to do to her.
I empathize with her fear. But I’m glad that I don’t share it. It feels like growth. In some small way.
Our partner and I joke about this by saying “Stand users attract stand users.”
We’ve noticed over the years that plurals tend to sorta… flock together. Even as egg cartons/pre-syscovery. As an egg carton we had a friend group that was mostly other plurals; initially all of these plural friends were unaware of their plurality, but slowly things became unveiled and they came out as plural. There were also singlets present, but A WHOLE LOTTA PLURALS TOO
Later when that friend group inevitably began to fall apart (~60-80% our fault, we got better though I swear), we branched out to other communities and interests for reasons that would likely de-anonymize me, and the rp we joined was populated nearly entirely by plurals and egg cartons.
Apparently, according to our mentor system, they have a habit of, as they put it, “accidentally hitting people with the plurality beam.” (Or, discovering a person they met was masking as a singlet, or being the snowball that leads to someone abruptly realizing they’re plural.)
So, is this something you’ve also noticed?
haha, honestly? we've noticed it too, in the past. our closest friends for about 3-5 years (a long time ago, when we were pre-system discovery as well) turned up to be plural, last i can remember. we had a best friend for about two years who was also a system, like ourselves, that we met coincidentally. in high school, said friend had a bit of experience with others questioning whether or not they are a system as a result of knowing them. we were never too public about our system, so i can't speak for us. maybe we are all like magnets. /j
but it is definitely interesting to hear of similar experiences. thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Tired. Exhausted. Overwhelmed. No one wants to front. It’s hot and muggy out today so the body is disgusting and sweaty - even more so than usual. We’re feeling socially claustrophobic but there’s nowhere we can go to be alone. Can’t take a bath cuz there’s only one bathroom and two other people in this tiny ass one bedroom apartment. Can’t be in the bedroom alone cuz partner is there. Can’t be in the living room alone cuz temporary roommate is there. Can’t dissociate with headset on at the computer because one dog is whining nonstop and I am unable to figure out why he’s having such problems today (we’ve had multiple walks, he’s done all his business, he’s had food, he’s had water, and he’s had play time) - and the whining is something I can’t ignore - it’s like when … I don’t know. I’ve run out of spoons for ranting even.
