People who like mantises but aren't that into entomology are always "orchid mantises" this and "orchid mantises" that. Overrated. Can we talk about Toxodera integrifolia for a minute:
(Image links because as much as it pains me I've never seen one of these beauties irl: 1 2 3)
Like how are these things real. Girl what is that thorax shape. Why are you wearing eyeliner. And the colors? Absolutely fire. This is a 10/10 insect if you ask me.
Idk how to describe it, but we knew the pope was gonna die last night
Ahhhh its so warm out, its very refreshing
Some people might romanticise or misunderstand DID due to portrayals in media and social circles. Here are a few reasons why they might think it's "fun" even though the reality is very different.
Media Influence: Movies and TV often dramatise DID, making it seem exciting or mysterious rather than showing the real struggles that come with it.
Social Media Trends: Some online communities talk about DID in a way that focuses on the uniqueness of having multiple identities, rather than the distress and challenges.
Perceived Escape from Responsibility: Some might think having different identities means avoiding responsibility for actions, which is a harmful misconception.
Curiosity About Different Identities: The idea of switching personalities can seem fascinating, like playing different characters, without understanding the serious psychological impact.
In reality, DID is a complex and distressing disorder that results from trauma. It’s not something enjoyable.

I find one big misconceptions about fictives in systems is that they are characters that you like/liked. Like I’m a Vriska Serket fictive, and our system HATED the character Vriska. And it took me a while to be myself and be okay with it, and now everyone is chill with me. Just something Ive been thinkin about. It was kinda funny cause one day everyone was like, “oh you actually chill as fuck”. Some of them still dont like the character, but we also know that im not my source.
The future should not be plural.
The future should accommodate for those with dissociative disorders.
The future should have further more thorough research in dissociative disorders.
The future should be more accepting of dissociative disorders.
BUT
The future should not be plural.
That means children are getting repeatedly traumatised at an impressionable age.
That means children don't have healthy coping mechanisms.
That means children AREN'T SAFE.
The future should not be plural, but it should be respectful and accepting to those who are.
