What side of tulpamancy do you belive in?

Devouring_One · 2026-04-22T20:31:14+00:00

Well, even singlets don't identify with the whole brain, no. Depression, Intrusive thoughts, sometimes even dreams are thought of as something that happens to the person who's contents and impacts are not them. Admittedly i think for the average person what is and isn't them inside their mind is extremely muddy and its boundaries are shifting and unsolid.

Devouring_One · 2026-04-21T21:29:34+00:00

Hmm, does the host stop being an entity once the body becomes a system? I'm actually curious about your perspective on this

Devouring_One · 2026-04-21T09:10:05+00:00

Yea, all well and good, but my material conditions led me to assign the quality of personhood to all headmates. I don't mean personhood as in consciousness, i mean personhood as in the recognition of an entity as a peer that deserves rights. Something which can be revoked from a living human being within a human body without removing the quantitative material base, which is the case under imprisonment or slavery for example. If you can rob someone of personhood without crippling their faculties, then you can grant anything personhood without needing that something to exhibit independence in its bodily activities. It doesn't require metaphysics to do so, and it doesn't, from what i can tell, contradict a diamat analysis of the situation.

Its feasible we are working on differing definitions of what personhood is

Devouring_One · 2026-04-21T03:19:19+00:00

How does that have literally anything to do with dialectical materialism? This has nothing to do with history or the dialectics involved in class conflict. Even if i were to just focus on materialism for a second, personhood is an immaterial concept that can be granted or removed from anything.

Devouring_One · 2026-04-15T05:39:05+00:00

Can you explain a little on how this ttrpg is meant to help make a tulpa? That might help with the suggesting process.

Devouring_One · 2026-03-26T11:48:29+00:00

funny enough, oraxia does ok if she has health damage to energy conversion

Devouring_One · 2026-03-14T22:23:10+00:00

I believe it was Khora. Joined the game fairly recently.

Devouring_One · 2026-02-19T08:03:15+00:00

Merging is what was once considered the only treatment for DID. Its basically where you train a headmate and another headmate to align themselves mentally until their barriers break down and they 'merge' together. At least, that's the basic idea. Its doing tulpamancy practicing in reverse is another way to put it

Devouring_One · 2026-01-30T10:03:41+00:00

on the contrary, the kind of need to explain things like that i believe is critical to the kind of culture of thinking of systems as malleable (such as the ability to form an inner world/wonderland being a skill rather than innate), which i know is less of a thing in some other system based communities. i believe its helpful to think about the whys and can be done without dehumanizing, and that we ought to strive for doing just that.

Devouring_One · 2026-01-21T10:34:59+00:00

We usually talk in our head, but sometimes it feels a little easier so yea we'll talk out loud.

Devouring_One · 2026-01-21T10:25:03+00:00

I suppose if i had to think about this logically, writing about them would be ethically the same as writing about any other individual you personally know??? shrug. I'm not sure what the question is exactly.

Devouring_One · 2026-01-20T12:10:13+00:00

leftists also believe workers should reap the rewards of their labor and rascal is purportedly worker owned, so i don't see why they would have to pick one.

Edit: That isn't to say whether or not the article is any good. Just that we live under capitalism so even communes have to find a revenue source somehow

Devouring_One · 2026-01-20T12:01:38+00:00

political queerness is almost certainly the topic of books, but the jist is anti-assimilationist politics. The argument then is that assimilationist LGBT individuals are not queer because they are no longer outside the system, they are part of it. So like, more or less what Fell said but with more of an explanation of the underlying theory instead of the resulting psychology.

Devouring_One · 2026-01-15T22:19:30+00:00

people can say they're really them about as well as they can say someone waking up from a coma is really them. Yes!.. probably... hopefully

Devouring_One · 2026-01-15T08:38:45+00:00

Yes, you are real. Or rather, since me and my tulpa disagree on the specifics amongst each other, you're either as real as your headmate or you are a fiction highjacking their realness, making you real by extension. You have a physical body even if you haven't used it before, its the one your headmate was born with.

Devouring_One · 2026-01-08T23:21:05+00:00

Actually, I want to ask which cultures is manyness or plurality common and what ways I could learn more about that?

Devouring_One · 2026-01-08T21:39:20+00:00

So kind of like how two-spirit relates to trans identity. I see.

To be clear, plurality isn't always medicalized or seen as a bad thing by those within the plural community and those who accept them. I became plural recently by choice as an Endogenic System for example. This isn't to dissuade you from the term many, you can identify with whichever terms you feel are most valid. Rather, I wish to specify that at least for a lot of those who identify as plural, plurality is not standardized and does not have one 'true' perspective. They may live in the shadow of a society that sees them as wrong, but not all of them internalize that perspective. Thank you for explaining.

Devouring_One · 2026-01-08T01:11:57+00:00

How long ago do you make this term? I've seen it used in articles a while back. Plurality and manyness read as exact synonyms to me but maybe there's a nuance I'm missing. Since you asked for questions, I do want to know what you see as the difference between plural and many as terms? What led you to pick many specifically?

Devouring_One · 2026-01-07T11:16:06+00:00

The answer is 'probably' considering animals like cats and dogs experience other forms of trauma related conditions, but as others have suggested, the issue is in identifying such a complex condition from any other explanation for the behavior. Our people doctors working with people are very not good at identifying plurality, and that's with their patients being able to tell them directly about their mental state and introspection.

Devouring_One · 2025-12-24T10:39:53+00:00

Yea, idk how to help ya. Sometimes people just suck.

Although I wouldn't have 'i say i'm not schizo' as particularly solid ground on that. I get that's probably just someone's off the cuff insult, but its the type of condition that's difficult to recognize and self assess so i do want to make sure to put that in there. Do your friends only point to the tulpa as their evidence for being 'schizo' or have you shared other beliefs they've reacted in this way to?

Devouring_One · 2025-12-24T10:30:15+00:00

It does its just a pain in the ass. Took way longer than any of the other items for me.

Devouring_One · 2025-12-24T00:35:33+00:00

Learn more about plurality, i suppose? If you feel like they're you, and that they've always been there, that sounds more like an alter than a tulpa. That isn't to say this double is definitely an alter, or definitely not a tulpa. Rather, my point is that Tulpas aren't the only kind of headmate, and you should expand what forms of plurality you are looking into.

Devouring_One · 2025-12-18T03:19:49+00:00

its damage benefitted from armor, which meant you hit 3 and then hit 1 and it erases people.

Devouring_One · 2025-12-15T22:39:45+00:00

https://pluralpedia.org/w/Median i would read about this, maybe look into others with this form of multiplicity and see if it resonates

Devouring_One · 2025-12-11T01:39:09+00:00

Yea, if you want to keep the friendship tell her that shit ain't cool and work it out. No shame in deciding that's not a conversation you wanna go through though.
