Resource sites!

These are some sites we use, they have symbols, templates, etc! Link list under cut

Emojis and Symbols!

emojicombos -> our go-to for finding symbols, you can upload you own combos too!

emojidb -> our go to for emojis we can't access on mobile

i2symbol -> symbols organised by category/type

coolsymbolsio -> symbol combinations organised by category/type

[plural-simply]

Addition to this, we use the invisible character [⠀] / Unicode U+2800 as well for an effect as if the main folder is open and showing subfolders (it is a larger character than a space) Image below!

These folders are made to look like you've opened the "Sub Systems" folder and can see the two sub folders.

The main folder uses a space [ ], and the subfolders use U+2800 [⠀]

Of course there are other "invisible characters" and all of them will be different sizes, so you can look for smaller or larger characters as well!

friendly reminder to everyone who uses simply plural that you can have no folder icon!

If you leave the "custom emoji' section blank, it shows a picture of a folder to the left of the text. But, if you put a regular old space in there, that section is actually blank!

It may not be the most significant thing, but it certainly looks much better imo

Just some thoughts on system organisation

I've seen a lot recently about whether or not systems have detailed knowledge of alters and inner world, or lack there off, and I'm of the firm belief if it works for you great!

I think for us noting and finding out as much information as possible on everyone possible was incredibly important. Novum had always needed that control, most aspects of the system he can't have it, but noting down things we know was one of them. Looking back even years ago when we were a small child, notebooks full of drawings of "ocs" or "imaginary friends" writing about what they looked like, ages, likes, dislikes so much detail

Novum spent a lot of time after system discovery translating as much of it that was relevant, while being incredibly observant about the alters fronting in order for us to have the insight we do, Gray continued this with organising the information to make it readable.

It allows them both to feel some resemblance of understanding and control over who and what is happening within ourselves. I fully believe that you do not need as much knowledge as we have to function well, similarly I gave no doubt we know very little in the grand scheme of things. Always something new coming up.

Still, I understand the comfort it brings, and I admire the work both of them put it into helping us heal to the point where this mostly possible, I hope our communication continues to develop, while most revelations aren't exactly nice, I'm excited to learn and to better out position further.

*I open the Simply Plural and I suddenly forget everything about the system and also lose every ounce of creativity and organisation skills*

[narcissisticpdcultureis]

npd culture + did sys and autistic is constnatly looking at how you organised your simply plural, pluralkit, pinterest, system term documents, and pronouns.cc because it looks so nice and everyone should be complimenting me on it. im the best at organising (thank u autism).

(@ruckus-collective thanks for tagging me)

This is what we use, if it's interesting or helpful

(things like TheBook Signoff, Wing Measurements and Status Lines obviously might not be useful, but I'm sleepy and I can't be bothered making this a proper and edited list)

Another idea would be "intros" (we use descriptions for that, but having like an "about me" paragraph)

oh yeah while im in front and lurking on tumblr... i got a question for all yall who use simply plural: anybody got some ideas for custom fields? like not just templates. i mean like fullblown what do you even put in your custom fields. what kind of custom fields have you guys made

weve been wanting to overhaul our simply plural for a lil while now and thought about using custom fields for extra info that didnt fit in the descs/extra info we didnt want mucking up the descs but we have like... no ideas what custom fields to make beyond like birthdays or something

so if anybody sees this post im kinda curious to hear what you guys have. i want some ideas

Post Images!

Postimg cc(linked) is a great site to store images; we upload all of our profile pictures there!

You can create multiple "galleries" to hold different things; we have one for gifs, one for profile pictures, and one for decos!

Each upload provides you with a few ways to link/insert the file in different places!

Keep in mind at around 100 images in one gallery is when that gallery may start to have issues loading; nothing big, but images you have linked in places will load a bit slower!

We also recommend the browser extension Download all Images(linked)! As post images will ask you buy premium to download a whole gallery at once. With the extension you can download all images on a webpage and you can set different parameters for what does/doesn't get downloaded!

We use the Reddit markdown option as our default because you only have to add an exclamation mark to make it work on Simply Plural ^^

Simply Plural Custom Fields (To Prioritise Functioning)

In our last post I discussed the pressure we felt to present our system a certain way, something I'm sure is prevalent in online spaces as well. So as part of undoing this belief system we've been redoing our simply plural.

In very few posts have we seen advice on sorting simply plural and custom fronts or profile layouts to prioritise communication and functioning. So here's the changes we've made, if anyone wants well share an example of a whole alter profilem

Main Things We've Added To Custom Fields:

More private sections, to detail roles and take related to it, triggers, fusion, dormancy and etc updates

A system to categorise general amnesia barriers between individual alters and everyone else (taken from the BASK structure of memories as seen in a post by @granulesofsand)

A section for wants and needs, to highlight anything that people need externally (mainly physical items)

A section for goals. These are three questions people answer as they want. We also added a "clearance" section to specify who can view this part

1. What are your goals for yourself?

2. What goals do you think the system should work towards?

3. What is something you think needs improvement?

Of course, you can do whatever kind of questions you need, but we found it a really helpful section

A section for coping skills, and any safety plans in place for the alter

Disorder Info, all of us have the same mental health issues but in this section it gives an opportunity to specify which aspect may affect someone the most/least to help specify what someone may need

Limiting what people can pick as an avatar. We had problems with people purposely changing them, or being uncomfortable with them as they tried to make them attractive to others especially our irls. To prevent this we've limited the picrews they can choose and are encouraging picking it like a pfp, with a section for alternative face claims (which can be anything they want) in cf

Example screenshots are below the cut!

Once we've organised our folder situation we plan to do a post on how were sorting that, and what custom fronts we create. I hope this is helpful to someone! Pleaseeee send asks related to it, or anything I'd love to answer questions

[the-fox-collective]

This is the personal account for @coining-system-terms and @saltyfoxes-artist I'm gonna talk about whatever I want here but here's some things you should know:

Basic:

We're 18, we mostly use singular first person pronouns to refer to ourself but sometimes use plural to reduce confusion about collective vs individual alter.

We use the terms alters, headmates and sysmates for Most of the system. There are certain areas where the inhabitants are parts but do not refer to us as parts by default.

We have medically recognised dissociative disorder and plurality but a diagnosis is a struggle to get and we're working on it. We are physically disabled and will complain about it.

Stances:

Literally couldn't care less if endos exist or not. I'm not them, I have no idea what their life has been, I'm also not a psychologist specialising in plurality, and certainly not their psychologist. I do not want to talk to endos about their plurality because I will not be able to relate to them, so I don't want them adding things to my posts. It's easier to say anti endo.

I believe everyone should access therapy/counselling about their mental health, even if they have had bad experiences because not all professionals are evil incarnate. I think these are good first steps into introspection and can lead to getting the right support when needed. Pro recovery, psych critical (institutions should be improved with the actual well being of patients in mind, nonconsensual "support" is more harmful than good).

I believe transmisogny and transandrophobia are both real and I believe that when people of a marginalised group coin terms to describe their OWN oppression you should use their words instead of making your own FOR them. Intersexism is also real and therefore using AGAB and TME/TMA is not useful in a majority of discussions. They're also not identity terms.

I don't hate anyone based on their identity, but I believe some identities are used ignorantly. This means I am pro contradictory labels, pro mspec monos, pro multigender, pro xeno, pro neoprns.

I am neutral mostly on radqueer stuff because it's a complex issue, for example transrace being used by POC adopted children who were put into white families and felt they had to rebuild(?) or reconnect with their race. I think there could be better terminology that doesn't end up conflated transitioning and reconnecting though. Again, it's complex.

War shouldn't happen and in the current political climate is a tool of capitalism and imperialism. Be nice to all people. Prison abolition. Harm reduction. Socialism. Pro abortion. Libertarianism is fucking moronic. Literally "Treat people with kindness and let them do as they wish to their own body." Government as it is is corrupt but more democracy could lead to big governments, high taxes and support for everyone.

I use the term OEA (organised extreme abuse) instead of RAMCOA and the term ITBC (intentional torture based conditioning) instead of mind control/programming

My life, simply:

I was born into poverty, into a high control group and was kicked out as a preteen for a multitude of reasons. I have experienced neglect, lack of privacy and many types of abuse. In the high control group there was a lot of ITBC. I am not in a place to talk about it online in detail.

As a teen, I was not a kind person. I have been working on that for a long time, sometimes I become cruel again and I am working not. Radical acceptance of other people has been key to this.

I cut off contact with my blood relatives a few years ago and have been stalked by one. I have very few friends because I fear human connection that leads to being perceived. This account is to help with that, as my therapist has advised.

I currently live with my wife. She is a singlet and has a supportive family. Her family know about my suspected DID and I have had no issues with them. I do not work, I have taken a gap year to work on my physical health.

we hold 28 members, with room for potential addition in the future;

DISCLAIMERS :

WE ARE SELF AWARE. We do not claim to have DID/OSDD/PDID or similar conditions, but have it be known we do suffer from depersonalisation/derealisation/autism/age regression/pet regression/chronic depression, anxiety and paranoia/etc. There's a reason we call ourselves "the imaginaries," we seek organisation and methods to cope with our own mentality/trauma. Professional help is not an option for us financially speaking, it could be entirely possible our experiences are trauma based, however we have no idea and no way of knowing/finding out. We're aware of the severity of individuals claiming to have DID or similar conditions etc. and in no way are we in this category. We don't even like using the terms "system" or "endogenic" or "tulpamancy" for ourselves in fear of misuse/miscategorisation. We're simply documenting our thoughts, feelings and experiences. If you want to discuss our experiences by means of helping or just chatting, please DM us or drop an ask.

[the-colours-system]
