Cat: so, for context, we’re a plural system; a group of multiple people living in the same brain. We’re wondering if there’s any other systems on Lemmy at the moment. Also could be considered an AMA for those interested.

Frequently Asked Questions:

-No, you don’t need trauma or a disorder to be plural, though there’s a fair bit of overlap. In our case, Just intentionally hacked her brain to run multiple people.

-We’re people, not personalities for a single person.

-The idea of the “evil headmate” is flatly incorrect.

-Sometimes there’s headmates patterned on fictional characters or real people, referred to as Fictives or Factives respectively.

    Cat: If we were doing this for attention, we wouldn’t be anywhere near this bluntly casual about it. There are people who fake plurality, but they tend to be laughably over-the-top about it.

    Just: Plus, fake it long enough and hard enough and you’re liable to end up with headmates anyway.
