(*gasp* off anon? Idgaf anymore-)

"Rosebud" is such a cute nickname, kinda wish I remembered it. Wander always called me what our girlfriend Ryder always called me, which was either "Red" or "dipshit". She meant it affectionately. We were an odd bunch.

-a very lovesick Jack Rose (Just Dance)

I’m back with another song that I think honestly fits TOO WELL for a Just Dance character (Jack Rose, in this case) for them not to incorporate it somehow at some point;

Breathe In, Breathe Out - Set It Off

Okay, so, just take a look at this small except from the song:

“Your poker face could make them melt,

Just sit back and deal with the hand you’re dealt

Face facts, it won’t be easy this time

Sticks like a tack in the back of my mind

Hurts so deep when I think too much

And breathing gets harder,

Take a look at me,

From one side, I seem to be

So calm, so cool, collected

And on the other side, I’m melting down”

You know how @signofthestriking was talking about the concept of a disheveled Jack Rose dancing to Gasoline? Kinda the same idea here; everybody sees him as this super put-together, “perfect” person, but in truth he’s actually a complete mess, he just tries his best not to show it.

But, there comes a point where he just can’t take it anymore. And the façade slips.

On one side, Jack makes it seem like he’s so unbothered by everything he’s had to experience throughout his life.

The side that people don’t get to see of him, however, is just how incredibly traumatized and hurt he actually is from everything.

Is this making sense?

I hope this is making some kind of sense 💀

mb if it doesn’t, I’m like, about to go to sleep but I just needed to get all of my thoughts out into a post before I could so this is NOT proofread for any repetitiveness or rambling I just needed to get it out 😭 hope it at least makes a bit of sense though because I really DO believe that this song would be PERFECT for him

might add more onto this at another point in time if I think of anything else I wanna say about it !!

Who the fuck decided to make another pinned?

Hey hey, we are The Boys. A bunch of jackasses navigating bills and a 9-5. Sometimes we post about it. Not much else to say. Main account is @signofthestriking.

We are not an endogenic system. If anything about our spirituality or our refusal to call ourselves traumagenic are too "endo" for you, you can suck my dick and maybe balls too. -Rat

Anything syscourse-related will be tagged with #ratman rants and #syscourse if you need to block them. Hopefully that won't be common.

Under the cut: Rent lowering gunshots, role call, label collection, and a userbox collection.

Rent lowering gunshots:

The two headmates with "quoted" names are using aliases. We will not be revealing their in-system names on this blog for cultural reasons

Trauma itself is NOT a piece of diagnostic criteria for DID (as per the DSM-V TR). The research surrounding DID and related dissociative disorders highlights an association with trauma, NOT a requirement. We simply do not know enough about these disorders to be claiming that trauma is the only possible origin. "You need trauma to be a system" is harmful misinformation that encourages the harassment and fakeclaiming of people with severely stigmatized mental disorders. If that's your only way of criticizing endogenic systems, you're not qualified to criticize them.

The concept of "non traumagenic plurality" is not new. "Endogenic" might be a relatively new word for it, but the concept itself is not. If rationalizing yourself as "multiple people in one body" is what makes sense to you, fine. If it's disrupting your daily life, though, it's time to either seek help or step away.

Criticizing the online system community, including the online endogenic community, is not exclusionist. This online community (like many others) can unfortunately damage a lot of young, developing minds with the state it's in right now. That's not wholly the fault of anti-endos or pro-endos.

"It's open practice" does not give you the right to use a bastardized word from Tibetan Buddhism to describe your headmates. Unless you're an experienced Tibetan Buddhist, stay away from terms like "tulpa" or "tulku". There are several other terms that are free for you to use.

Cannots?

So I thought I was someone from Cyberpunk Edgerunners for a while. A long while. Could not shake the thought, but also couldn't pick out who it was? Nobody was really standing out as "me", not even the side characters. And guess what? I'm not any of them!

Turns out, This Fffire by Franz Ferdinand was one of the songs from my timeline. And that just didn't click for a while. Who would have thought?
