    As someone with fair skin, yeah, you cannot tan- only burn. Whenever our partner sees too much skin they’re like “WHY ARE YOU SO WHITE?!” Lol

    Think next time we’ll reply “how else are we going to be Gondor’s beacon in their time of need?!”

        From @GarboDog@lemmy.world’s profile:

        A silly girl filled with silly things. She/Her/They/Them/We/Us Yes we’re a system lol garbodog.neocities.org

        They are multiple entities in a (girl) body. Sometimes only one is speaking, sometimes all. More about systems and other plurals: morethanone.info / pluralpedia.org

        Some plurals use pronouns.cc for their interaction preferences but I couldn’t find such info for them. Many prefer not to be addressed “you” but “y’all” and in chat rooms with plurals, using “beings/folks” and “everymany” rather than “people” and “everyone” for inclusivity.

            to much work

            to

            For you? Sure. They will likely correct you the first time and not consider occasional slip-ups (I make them too) in bad faith. If you don’t demonstrate good faith, no wonder they won’t want to keep talking to you. The reason I highlighted pronouns.cc pages is because they offer clear and concise info on interacting. Examples: Appie / Starlight

                    This is fine. Y’all don’t need to list all headmates (or any, for that matter). Folks come there mostly to check interaction preferences, such as name(s), pronouns, nouns (being/person/dog/system etc.), preferred/abhorred terms by level of closeness and similar, not the inner workings of the collective unless apparent from outside.

                    Matrix is a nice Discord alternative, there is the Genderverse space by folks at Blåhaj.zone, and both aforementioned pronouns.cc users are very active on it. FluffyChat is the client generally recommended there.

            You can just refer to us as she/her or they/them. We don’t mind people not using our individual pronouns (they are complicated) but y’all is super appreciated :3

            Either way, we don’t care as long as you play nice so the “ew” is kinda uncalled for

              I don’t mind referring to people’s gender presentation. What I’m not going to do is the “now I’m a girl, oops now a boy.” Extra pronouns. All that bull is. You get one the one your presenting and that’s it. Asking others to do all that is just self centered and not thinking of others.

                We’re not asking that though, but ok??

                Like we said before, you can refer to us as she/her or they/them that’s up to you with one you want to choose that’s what she/they means. No one’s asking you to jump through hoops dude, it’s just pronouns-are you like scared of them or something??

                  Sometimes I feel like yall pretend like yall don’t have silly people like that. I’ve literally met someone like that.

                  Also if you actually read my comment then you’d understand that I don’t mind playing along with 1 gender you’re present. It’s all that extra shit I ain’t doing.

                    We very much read your comments, you’re basically saying that we’re only allowed one gendered representation because you can’t be arsed to choose yourself a she/her or they/them. -Lily

                    “What I’m not going to do is the “now I’m a girl, oops now a boy.” Extra pronouns. All that bull is. You get one the one your presenting and that’s it.”

                    You however haven’t seem to read ours, as the previous person From our system (think it was Basil and Olive) who commented to you said:

                    “We don’t mind people not using our individual pronouns (they are complicated) but y’all is super appreciated”

                    Not once, but twice now. No one is asking you to do what you’re accusing us of??? Only people who use our full list of pronouns is ourselves and some really close friends.-Lily(she/Her)

                    “ I don’t mind playing along with 1 gender you’re present.”

                    Ok so you actually don’t fucking care, so why should we care about your Snow flake feelings??

                    Also on our last note:

                    “Sometimes I feel like yall pretend like yall don’t have silly people like that. I’ve literally met someone like that.”

                    Dude you’re so fucking cringe dude eww we don’t have to prove our DID especially to a loser like you.-Loki(He/Him)

                    We were pretty nice up to now but that was just gross 🖕 -Lily/Loki/JaySun

      Wow, i never know people who can’t get tanned exist. It just never crossed my mind that some white people are white because they can’t get tanned.

        Albinos can’t tan. Everyone else should be able to, to a greater or lesser extent. It may just be the difference between a lighter shade of pale and pale, though (and now that song is playing in your head also).

        Some people tan. Other people freckle until they’ve got so many that they connect. Other people burn, peel, and then get darker. (And of course, most people are some shade of brown to begin with, but still get darker if they spend time in the sun.)

      Went with my Canadian ex-gf and her cousin to Barcelona. They were peeling after a full day in the sun, felt so bad for them. I never really understood it because I would always tan.

        YEOUCH!!! We haven’t had a sun burn like that since we were a kid, and it was so bad we had to get examined at the dermatologist. Though normally now we burn even with the highest spf sun block so we tend to always stay in the shade ^^
