y’all, please don’t forget to check which requests are open before sending them. i’m working on the backlog of gender/pronoun finding requests, i don’t want to add a ton more to the pile, so those are closed.

(edit: i don’t mind you sending things looking for a single specific term that you can’t remember the name of or something, this only applies to requests like ‘are there any [insert thing]-related genders?’)

i think i’m gonna queue up some validation/affirmation edits (like these) tonight, y’all lmk if there are any specific identities you’d like me to make some for!

(forgot to mention - i’ll be interspersing these in the queue so it’s not just a few straight days of positivity edits and nothing else)

i think i might add a page to my carrd recommending other mogai/queer blogs… still thinking about it, but i like the idea of it!

merry christmas to my followers who celebrate it!!

so i’ve had the ideas for these two gender systems for ages now and i keep putting them off - i’m gonna start on them soon and try to get them done within a week or so, i’m posting this so y’all can yell at me if i put them off again jfkldgs

i’m going to

• coin genders related to the playable races in dnd (and perhaps their subraces) to go with tiefleic
• coin genders based on types of gems from steven universe (pearls, rubies, peridots, etc - i’ll at least do the gems of the main cast and may do more)

really not enjoying the recent push for xenogenders to only be used by neurodivergent people,, it feels like so many genders coined in the twitter mogai community are listed as neurodivergent-exclusive for no reason other than the fact that so many people now think xenogenders can’t be used by neurotypicals. it’s perfectly fine to coin neurogenders or to want a gender to only be used by neurodivergent people due to certain characteristics of the term, but if you’re just coining a general xenogender, please don’t make it neurodivergent-exclusive.

like, yes, it’s very common for xenogenders to be coined by and used by neurodivergent people, but we are not the only people who benefit from these terms. spreading the idea that xenogenders can only be used by neurodivergent folks is going to harm neurotypical trans people. it makes me sad to see neurotypical questioning people asking if they’re allowed to use xenogenders because they’ve seen so many younger/newer community members claiming they can’t.

(not to mention that the idea that only neurodivergent people can have ‘weird’ genders is. kind of ableist.)

so i just noticed i’m 15 followers away from 2,000! i was happy enough when this blog just had 100 followers, and absolutely shocked when i hit 1k, since i’d never had more than 800 on a blog

just… thank you all so much.

love when t3rfs reblog my posts so i can expand my blocklist

to the arovaguian anon - actually, i am doing identity flag requests right now! the requests i’m not doing are in-depth pronoun and term searches (single-term searches are fine, just not things like ‘are there any space-related genders’ and the like) and pronoun flags. flags are the main requests i’m doing atm, so dw, i’ll get to your request fairly quickly.
