#introduction
So I've written this out before and I got to 900 words before the mastodon app crashed and got rid of all my introduction.
Attempt 2
__Basics__
Hi! I'm Elliott, the host in this system: The Fox Collective. We are a moderately sized system of 30 ish, however many alters preform internal roles instead of fronting, for example trauma holders and caretakers.
We are autistic and have physical illnesses as well as a list of mental ones. We struggle a lot with communication and emotional permanence and so this account is going to be a journal-style for headmates to improve communication.
If we are going to talk about our struggles, they will be cw'd correctly.
We are 17. We will turn 18 in March. Do not interact with us if you are a "Minors DNI" account.
A lot of us are also trans, and the body will be undergoing medical transition when we can afford it. Our collective pronouns are it / fox / he, in order of preference. Please do not refer to us as they / them, even in a plural manner. It makes many of us very uncomfortable.
__Interests__
We really like foxes if you couldn't tell. And most other animals, especially those with a lot of personality.
We are a very creative bunch with a love of learning, although I do not like being bad at things. Art (both traditional and digital), poetry, design, and knitting are the things we are good at but we also dabble in sewing, baking, coding. We like listening to vocaloid music whilst we work and would listen to video essays if it weren't impossible to find people with "process-able" voices talking about interesting subjects that aren't triggering.
We use Linux. I think that deserves its own paragraph.
We tend to have many wips at one time, and tend to finish them sporadically.
__Etiquette__
We are in the GMT +1 timezone.
We try to respond to things but aren't strong in communication skills across text, we apologise for any miscommunication.
Don't flirt with us. We are a minor and we are taken by our girlfriend.
We sign off posts with the headmate's name and preferred pronouns. Eg: "-Elliott (it/he)"
Interaction welcome, please talk to us
Gonna say it again: WE ARE A MINOR ! Minors DNI please DNI :)

Demi Lovato changing their pronouns back to include she/her, because they got so tired of being misgendered is so bleak. But it's so common.
Who else has done that? Changed your pronouns just so you weren't 'technically' being misgendered anymore.

I plant my HRT in soil and water it to grow new pronouns

You can download these from the web archive here! They're free to use as icons, or to print and make your own buttons or shirts: https://archive.org/details/varigated-canna-pronoun-pin-anemone-caps-locked-80-white-border-vi-vir

it's really funny that people say #neopronouns are impossible to learn how to use because literally if you practice you will start picking them up with zero effort, even pronoun sets you've never used before.
I use a random number generator and a list of over 2K neopronouns to pick which pronouns to write next for my compilation of short stories, and literally within five sentences I don't even have to think about it anymore.
Once you actually *properly* learn the grammar rules that govern pronouns, neopronouns become second nature.
The problem is that, if English is your native language and the only language you speak, you've just never actually thought about the rules before.
He/him, she/her, they/them, and it/its all use different grammar rules. You can't just swap them out 1:1 interchangeably!
And once you Really learn those rules? Neopronouns are not a problem at all! :)

f you're not cognitively disabled and you think neopronouns are difficult to use I promise you you literally just have to practice.
You are not going to instantly learn how to re-aply grammar rules you've probably never had to think about before to new words, and no one expects you to. You'll have to practice, just like with any new thing.
If you put in the effort to practice, you will eventually start using neopronouns, even new sets you've never heard before, like it's second nature.

I'll never remember your #neopronouns If you look like a dude it is sir, if you look like a lass it is miss.
That's it.
If you are a feminine dude with a dress you are still a dude to me. And if you are a manly woman you are still a woman to me. I'll treat you both with respect but how you perceive yourself is not how I perceive you. Nor is it the reality of the situation.
When I first joined the furry fandom c. 2001, it was just standard practice for people to have #hermaphrodite characters with shi/hir pronouns. That was just as normal as using he or she to refer to someone.
So it's been interesting seeing people recently comment that using #neopronouns for Shira is a remarkable thing, even though some of those same people (understandably) recoil at someone being described as a #herm

@mchristinebd Try going to the Submission Grinder (https://thegrinder.diabolicalplots.com/), Advanced Search(Fiction or Poetry), select the Market Genre(s), then in the keyword search box enter LGBTQ and click Search.
Markets self-identifying as LGBTQ (so likely more open to #nonbinary and #neopronouns) will appear at the top of the search results.
I have a writer friend looking for #spec #mags that take short (#flash and longer) #sci-fi, #fantasy, #horror #submissions but who won’t ask them to limit #nonbinary and #neopronouns because they are “speed bumps” for readers. ☹️ What are your favorite nonbinary-friendly publications? #WritingCommunity

Finally added my #neopronouns:
A #HumanoidUnicorn has no #gender, and yet, has all genders at the same time. I call it the "schrödingers" gender.
So it simply is ( any / any ).
It's deeply rooted in my unsatisfactory with the male-cis gender. In particular I dislike this Mr / Sir thing. However, I have always identified as a boy.
Some people called me already by my female version name and I actually don't care. I like it though.
But I actually don't belong to any stereotyped gender norm. I am beyond.
But to make it cristal clear: I seek so abolish all gender stereotypes. And afterwards there will be no gender identification possible.
That's how I understand #deconstructivism as an answer to #PostStructuralism.
I call this: #GenderLiberation in my #AnarchoUnicornism theory.
