I'm always surprised when I see someone who identifies as straight on Tumblr. It seems like the actual het population there identifies as transgay/lesbian, genderspecial (disqualified from being straight, somehow), or an "attracted to men + nonbinaries" bisexual.
I’m seriously afraid of and feel sad for the twitter/carrd population of kids currently growing up to be completely bound to this kind of lifestyle like your traditional tumblrina. They don’t come from nowhere and sadly some kids never grow out of it, especially if they don’t have any social interaction at school and elsewhere beyond social media.
No problem, I was genuinely surprised that a Carrd thread did not exist considering how batshit insane some of these things get.
Are you trying to say that's the owner of Carrd's child or something?
Most of the time, yes. 18 is still relatively young, but then again, many cows who are 18 tend to barely change.Is it normal for one person to have multiple carrds, or is this person just truly exceptional?
"Main pronouns
king/king/king’s/king’s/king"
Another question: Is someone a lost cause at 18? "Psychotic symptoms", what a shock.
Random Fun fact; Actually I've seen one proshipper carrd, which kinned...Dennis Nilsen , so yeah kinnies are wierd
I wish I could give a Semper Fi to this post. God bless you for making this. Reminds me of the glossary sticked in the Tumblr subforum when that was a thing.There's a lot of overlap between Carrd, [self] shipping, and kinning communities. Going to sit down and explain some commonly found terms - and why they're used - so people in this thread aren't lost, assuming this thread picks up. I'm not defending this shit, it's all fucking stupid, I'm just here to give the context. I'm not familiar with the KPop side of things so I won't be touching upon terms specific to KPop carrds.
I have zero clue why these spoilers are doubling up on my end, apologies.
K-POP
Thank you @alpro whore for giving me the basic terms, I'm not super familiar with K-Pop terms myself.
Oftentimes the least horrifying thing on these Carrds, most of the people with K-Pop focused Carrds are generally well-adjusted people.
ULT = someone's favourite group
BIAS = someone's favourite member
BIAS-WRECKER = someone's second favourite member
A STAN is a 'stalkerish fan', but the term has been reclaimed to basically be the modern equivalent of 'super-fan'. If someone says they 'stan BTS' or are 'a BTS stan', that means they're a super-fan.
In K-Pop groups, an ANTI is someone who doesn't like a certain group or member, or is 'against' said group/member. "DNI if you're anti my favs" means 'don't interact if you dislike my favourite groups/members"
GENERAL FANDOM
REFERRING TO [JAPANESE NAMED CHARACTER] WITH XYZ PRONOUNS
DanganRonpa related. Three(?) characters are crossdressers - not trans, but crossdressers who identify with their birth sex - and people get pissy if you don't headcanon them as trans and agree with their headcanons.
If a Carrd has "I use she/her for Chihiro" or "DNI if you use he/him or they/them for Chihiro", it's Danganronpa related.
MINECRAFT YOUTUBERS
Commonly found in Carrds. Most popular is 'dream smp', or 'dream survival multiplayer'
DREAM = Minecraft YouTuber. Notorious for having cheated in a Minecraft world record speedrun.
DREAM SMP = Dream Survival Multiplayer, a Minecraft roleplay server that streams on Twitch.
DREAM TEAM = YouTubers involved in the server. Most commonly discussed by Dream stans, in no particular order, are
- DREAM- TOMMY / TOMMYINNIT- TUBBO- GEORGE / GEORGENOTFOUND- WILBUR SOOT - 'ghostbur' is a ghost version of wilbur, commonly seen in fanart- ALYSSA / ITSALYSSA- SAPNAP- SKEPPY- RANBOO- QUAKCITY- SCHLATT / JSCHLATTThere are other Dream Team members but I'm keeping this short.
Of course, DreamSMP fans tie into kinning, shipping, and self-shipping, along with lots and lots of drama.
GENDER + SEXUALITY
"NO PRONOUNS IN BIO" = they think you're transphobic if you don't have your pronouns in your bio either because 'gender =/= pronouns' or because 'it means you don't show solidarity with trans ppl'
MLM = man who loves men
WLW = woman who loves women
NBLNB = nonbinary who loves nonbinary
can be mixed and matched, e.g NBLM = non-binary who loves men
EXCLUS / EXCLUSIONISTS / EXCLUSIONARY, BI/PAN LESBIANS
An exclusionist is someone who 'gatekeeps', AKA 'you need dysphoria to trans', thinks that asexual people aren't inherently LGBT on their own, doesn't like nounself pronouns ("pencil/pencils/pencilself style pronouns"), etc. Because how dare someone have their own opinions and not give into the hivemind!
Carrd users will typically have EXCLUSIONISTS DNI in their DNI list... along with 'ARE OR SUPPORT BI / PAN LESBIANS'
A bisexual lesbian or pansexual lesbian is someone who follows the 'split attraction model' [SAM]. Under this model, if a guy is romantically interested in men and women, but only sexually aroused by men, they'd be considered "biromantic homosexual". A woman may be an 'aromantic lesbian' who doesn't feel romantic attraction and just wants pussy. So on. Don't ask me how it works because I have no clue.
For bi / pan lesbians, in this case, this is oftentimes someone who is romantically interested in men and women, but can only be aroused by women.
Mind you, claiming to be a 'biromantic homosexual woman' is fine apparently, but not a 'biromantic lesbian woman'. Splitting hairs.
For some reason, saying 'bi / pan lesbians DNI' is not considered exclusionism, but I couldn't really give less of a shit.
ACHILLEAN VS SAPPHIC
There was drama on Twitter that sparked up a month or two ago about these terms, which had both been in use for years iirc. Lesbians, bisexual women, and other women who love women use 'sapphic' - derived from Sappho of Lesbos, an author known for her love poems directed at women - as an umbrella term for any woman who happens to like other women. Gay men didn't have an equivalent umbrella term, and adopted the term 'achillean', after Achilles and his relationship with Patroclus.
Lesbians started accusing people using the term 'achillean' of being 'actual rapist and pedophile defenders' because Achilles was an adult and Patroclus was a teenager in some retellings. Which means everyone using that term is pro-pedophilia. Also claimed the term was 'lesbophobic' for being a copy of 'their term'.
Then it was claimed that 'achillean' is violent towards bisexual people, because Achilles was bisexual and by claiming it as an mlm term it as erasing bisexual people... Even though the term was inclusive of bisexual men.
The aggressive Twitter lesbians conveniently forgot that Sappho, their lesbian idol, also wrote love poems to men (making her bisexual) and is theorized to have slept with her students and is no better than Achilles + 'achillean'.
'TOOTHPASTE'/'ACHILLEAN' FLAG
A colour-swapped version of the lesbian flag that was meant to represent gay men. Looks like a tube of crest toothpaste. Got shut down by aggressive Twitter lesbians claiming it was 'lesbophobic' for being a recolor of 'their flag', even though mlm people were reaching across the aisle and wanting to match flags.
Claimed to be heteronormative and misogynistic because 'clearly it's meant to be blue because 'blue is for boys!'' while ignoring the fact that the lesbian flag has pink for 'femininity'. Mistaken for the 'achillean' flag and falsely claimed to be a flag that signalled one as being 'pro-pedophile, pro-rape, and pro-biphobia' due to that... even though 'sapphic' could be argued to be the same. Fascinating.
It was later revealed that the original 'lipstick lesbian' flag, which the current flag is based off, was directly based on the old 'gay bear flag'. Of course, this was also swept under the rug. All flags reference each other in one way or another, but because its the gross gay men doing it, It's Bad Now.

bear flag | lesbian flag that was cancelled | current lesbian flag
Cue 16-year-olds using the 'toothpaste flag' being told that they're 'pro-pedophilia, rape-supporting biphobes' by 24-year-old lesbians on Twitter dot com.
If someone says 'achillean / gay man/toothpaste flags dni', it's because of this drama.
NEOGENDERS, XENOGENDERS, MOGAI
MOGAI = 'Marginalized Orientations, Gender Attractions and Identities/Intersex'. Originally intended to be a successor to 'LGBTQQIAAAPPP+" to stop people from getting into slapfights over the acronym.
Was co-opted by people who think that 'incel', 'straight tomboy', and 'fujoshi' are sexualites that make you LGBT.
View attachment 1964736View attachment 1964744View attachment 1964741View attachment 1964749
these are among thousands of flags posted to this blog
Neogenders + xenogenders fall under the 'MOGAI' label - these are non-binary genders that are oftentimes specific to [self diagnosed] autistic people. They claim different things to be genders. "PupGender" "AlienGender" "KinGender", and even "AutiGender" 'a gender identity where autism plays a role'.
Some MOGAI people also claim that kinning is inherently LGBT, and there are MOGAI pride flags for certain kintypes.
View attachment 1965020View attachment 1965022View attachment 1965025View attachment 1965032
"Welcome to our LGBT support meeting, today we have a new member! Go on, tell us a bit about yourself and your identity!"
"My sexual identity is Maned Wolf-Nagito Komaeda."
'ANTI-MOGAI DNI' means that if you don't think MOGAI genders are LGBT/'valid', then you're an ableist/transphobe/'exclus'.
"PRONOUN.XYZ" is a website where people, especially MOGAI people, put in their own 'custom pronouns'. Many of them are quite... distasteful, like a set of 'autistic pronouns' being 'flap/flaps/flapself', 'sti/stim/stmself', or 'stut/stutts/stutterself", or a set of 'ADHD' pronouns being 'hype/hypers/hyperself' and 'ina/inatts/inattentiveself'. Some of them are 'emoji pronouns' like/

'neopronouns'
Some are 'fandom based'. An example might be a Dawn Pokémon kinnie using "Dawn/Dawns/Dawnself", "Poff/Poffin/Poffinself", "Pip/Pips/Piplupself", or "Pachi/Pachis/Pachiriself" pronouns.

View attachment 1964996View attachment 1964998
pokémon-based pronouns - 'cipher' is a team in one of the GameCube games.
the star and moon pronouns belong to someone who 'kins' the character Nebby, who is a starry moon bat Pokémon.
In Homestuck, different in-universe characters have different 'quirks' when they type. One character might replace all their 'E's and 'I's with '3's and '1's when they type. "Th3y typ3 l1k3 th1s". Another character might replace their 'S's with 'Z's and capitalize the last letter of every word. "theY typE likE thiZ". Some people, typically HS kinnies or DID fakers who like HS, will claim to have a typing quirk...
So they adopt their typing quirk into their pronouns.

emojiself pronouns

homestuck typing quirk pronouns
'hope' and 'despair are both themes present in DanganRonpa - it's safe to assume these are 'fandom pronouns'
SHIPPING STUFF
"ANTI-SHIPPER / PRO-SHIPPER / ANTI-ANTI" = shipping drama.
If someone is ANTI-[specific ship], then similar to K-Pop antis, they strongly dislike or are actively against it. Can either be due to general anti-ship reasons ['problematic ship!!!'] or due to general fandom shipping wars (Dawn x Ash is better than Dawn x Barry!!!) If a Pokémon fan is "anti-twinleafshipping", then that means they're against the pairing of Dawn x Barry.
- An anti-shipper thinks that shipping or writing something bad means you condone it in real life, and they'll frequently attack others instead of just blocking them if they post something they don't like. Will cancel you for shipping a 15 x 16 year old for 'pedophilia apologism'.
- A pro-shipper defends people's rights to 'ship whatever you want, even if it's problematic, it's fiction.' Does not mean they ship these things themselves or are comfortable with it, but it means that they don't care if others do. Still, most likely to ship a 9 year old and a 25 year old.
- An anti-anti thinks 'just don't harass people and send them death threats over ships'.
These are seen in pretty much every 'DNI' list. Either no anti's or no pro-shippers.
Also commonly seen is FUJOSHI'S / FUDANSHI'S DNI.
FUJOSHSI = girl who likes yaoi, male x male, or gay ships. Frequently are considered to be fetishizing gay people and a menace to gay men and are 'gross' and 'iredeemable parasites' due to this.
FUDANSHI = guy who likes yaoi, male x male, gay ships. "Do not interact with me if you're... a male who likes mlm" because how dare gay men look at other gay men and fetishize them!
90% of the time the people saying FUJOSHIS/FUDANSHIS FUCK OFF!!! are FtMs, cis gay people really don't care. Conveniently, none of these people care when men get off to yuri, fxf, or lesbian ships. It's all about protecting their uwu pwecious soft boys.
View attachment 1964915
'basic dnfi stuff (homophobic[...]) [...] you are fujoshi/fudanshi"
because shaming gay men for looking at mlm media isn't at all homophobic in their eyes
SELF-SHIPPING.
Self-shipping is effectively the lovechild between kinning and shipping.
It's basically saying "Oh, Lusamine from Pokémon? She's actually my wife. She's actually dating me." It's a step up from just finding a character 'hot' or reading visual novels/dating sims, and a step up from just shipping your OC with them. These people legitimately think that such-and-such character has the hots for them and only them.
FICTO / FICTOSEXUAL = 'i'm only attracted to fictional characters'. Some people try and argue that fictosexual is on the asexual spectrum, and therefore liking fictional characters makes you LGBT.
F/O / FICTIONAL OTHER = normal people use 'signifcant other' for their partners, these people use 'fictional other'.
SHARING = people will frequently claim a character as 'their own'. "Lyandre is my husband, do not reblog my Lysandre art if you also ship with Lysandre! Lysandre is mine and I don't share!"
Some self-shippers also take shipping 'their F/O' with other characters as an attack on themselves.

IREDEEMABLE MEDIA
Many Carrd users think that if you consume 'the bad media' that you condone everything to do with the bad media. 'If something makes an ableist or homophobic joke then it means that you, the viewer, agree with that and hate disabled and gay people.'
People forget that most media has problematic elements in it. Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad to Crash Bandicoot and Pokémon, all of these things are 'problematic' in some way, but they single out these specific ones for.... who fuckin' knows why.
Of course - do I agree with blocking someone because they watched Attack on Titan 5 years ago when they were 15? Fuck no lol grow up
- Hazbin Hotel / Helluva Boss
- A gay trans pornstar drug addict is a demon in hell, the latina lesbian character is characterized super aggressive, etc. Which clearly means that anyone who has ever watched HH thinks that all gay people, trans people, pornstars, and drug addicts should go to hell, and that the creators are racist and lesbophobic.
- With the latina lesbian character, they conveniently ignore the fact that VivziePop is a latina bisexual woman.
- The same lesbians claiming that the aggressive lesbian stereotype is offensive are the same ones who were calling 'achillean' 16-year-olds 'pedophile rape apologists who should kill themselves' over some stripes. Just saying.
- Steven Universe
- Handled some POC + butch lesbian characters poorly, now one cannot watch the show without being racist lesbophobes themselves.
- Attack on Titan / Shingeki no Kyojin
- There's references to WW2 and Nazism in it, the creator is a Japanese imperialist(?). Therefore if you like Attack on Titan you actively support Nazis and genocide.
- Hetalia
- Same as above. Nazis in my anime? Okay Nazi supporter.
- Killing Stalking
- Violent anime with torture and abuse = you support torture and violence and abusive relationships in real life, you abuse apologist!
- South Park, Camp Camp, Family Guy, Clone High, Rick and Morty, etc.
- Raunchy offensive humor = clearly you agree with everything being said you gross racist homophobe.
- Riverdale, Big Mouth
- Above + minors Have Sex which means anyone who watches it is pro-pedophilia because teenagers never have sex ever guys
- Homestuck, Hiveswap
- Hussie is a racist cuck, therefore Homestuck fans are all racist bigots!!!
- Harry Potter
- J.K Rowling TERF + the... house elves? being Jewish allegories = anyone who has read or enjoys the books are transphobic Nazi white-supremacist.
"I CONSUME MY INTERESTS CRITICALLY"= 'I can't enjoy any media because I spend the whole time talking about how problematic my favourite shows are and beating myself up for enjoying this thing to make up for the fact that I like such an awful, awful show!" aka Steven Universe fan who doesn't want to admit to just being a fan.
KINNING STUFF.
Generally, kinning in these communities is less "I am the reborn spirit of a fox... I am foxkin..." and more "I'M LITERALLY KARKAT FROM HOMESTUCK REBORN NO DOUBLES"
KINNING = some people use 'kinning' as a 'just for fun' thing and don't actually think they're said character, but many people do use it with no sense of irony.
FICTIONKIN = someone who kins a fictional character
KIN MEMORIES = "kin memories are basically something from your senses that originated from the life of your kintype." stolen definition from some kin blog.
NO DOUBLES = "I won't talk to you if you kin this character who I also kin. I'm the only X of this character and you're fake."
SELFHOOD / ID = "I literally am this character, I don't just 'kin' this character I AM this character". Often paired with 'no doubles'.
PRIMARY / SECONDARY / TERTIARY = how 'strong' that kin is to someone
Sometimes kinnies will get defensive of the character they kin, which is why they claim 'no doubles'. They'll oftentimes refer to a character as themselves, and may claim that photos of their 'kin' are photos of themselves. I've seen people be chewed out by others for having their profile picture be of one's kin, because "that's weird! That's me! Dawn Pokémon is me! Why do you have a picture of me as your avatar?"
View attachment 1965007
"my me [?] is kagami kuro. not putting a kuro pic on here
cuz ppl who put selfies on their carrds r weirdos"
Kinnies may also refuse to follow fan accounts or roleplay accounts of their character, because 'you're roleplaying me and it's distressing'

avoiding the problem doesn't fix the problem, it only makes you more averse to it buddy
Fictionkin is a form of 'otherkin', though some fictionkin refuse to accept this fact and tell otherkin to fuck off, despite being otherkin themselves.
View attachment 1965012
"do not follow if
-you're from school
- you're doubles with [kin]
- you're otherkin"
FACTKINNING
Fictionkin is kinning a fictional character, factualkin / factkinning is kinning a real person. Commonly seen with YouTuber stans, such as "I AM Dream" or "I'm Markiplier kin". Generally frowned upon by kin communities. Factkin will often claim that they're 'canon divergent', e.g if Dream... I dunno, says a slur on stream, then the factkin will say "well in my memories I never said a slur, so I'm timeline-divergent".
'Factkin' is frequently misused by people who don't like factkin. "I'm actually Dawn from Pokémon and if you kin Dawn you're actually factkinning me and you're fucking disgusting. FACTKIN DO NOT INTERACT YOU'RE FUCKING GROSS."
DELUSIONAL ATTACHMENT
'Psychosis kinning'. Most people who kin know that they're not actually the character, but people with delusional attachments refuse to admit that. "I'm actually Dawn Pokémon, this is legitimately me, and if you refuse to support that then I'll block you." I have seen some people with DA's claim that "It's scary how accurate this character is, the writers had to have been watching me and stalking me and wrote this character based on me therefore I am this character", completely self-aware and unironic.
Oftentimes faked by people so they can claim DAs and be 'more valid' than other people who kin. It's frequently combined with factkinning as a way to justify 'being someone'.
View attachment 1962894
FICTIVE = DID kinning, basically. It's like an 'alter' but your alter is Naruto and yes, 98% of the time it's faked and forced.
View attachment 1962853
DNI IF YOU LIKE Z CHARACTER
This is often related to kinning. 'User kins X character, Z character was mean to X character in canon, therefore everyone who likes Z character hates X character! And because User kins X character, clearly that means that they're hated by people who like Z!'
View attachment 1962692
"I kin Dawn, and Paul in canon was mean to Dawn, so don't talk to me if you like Paul!"
Some people refuse to use these terms to describe their kins, and insist 'These arent kins or delusional attachments!!! these are me!! I am these characters!! This is my IDENTITY ACTUALLY' because not using these terms makes you 'more valid' or... some shit. I don't know it's just a big validity dick measuring contest. There are some Carrds where people say "these aren't kins these are literally me", I'll have to dig for them, tamer examples below.

OTHER STUFF
TONE INDICATORS.
View attachment 1965047
- Tone indicators are added to the end of posts to mean different things. Made for autistics. Some people use them, some people don't use them because it feels belittling. Google for a full list of them, but you know how some people on reddit and the like would add /sneed to the end of sarcastic comments? It's like that only with 30 of these things. /ly for lyrics, /neg for negative stuff, /srs for serious stuff, /pos for positive stuff. People get fucking serious about these things and will cuss others out for misusing them.
you're supposed to remember all of this, and if you don't use them then you're an ableist autism-hating shitlord, according to Twitter
You forgot adding their race to their carrd (for some reason), but overall this is too accurate.

maybe i should blindly throw my faith into the next thing that comes my way.ssaannttii.carrd.co
I guess race also fits under the listing of pronouns and other shit, basically what they would have in their normal twitter bio for identities but on their carrd.
I suppose. I remember that becoming more common after the BLM riots, I think? Because, according to that one Twitter user, it was so "POC know not to interact with you". Sounds like segregation with extra steps, but okay.
Aww thanks man. I'm more familiar with these things than I should be, so I may as well share the context for it all. Easier than having it spread across 30 highlights by different people trying to piece together the puzzle.
I'm not sure how worth it archiving Carrd URLs beyond screenshots of noteworthy things would be, unless it's a notable cow or a notable eyesore Carrd. Lots of the Carrds that I've been finding have been linked to dead accounts and wouldn't be much use for finding cows. I know KF's whole thing is 'archive fucking EVERYTHING' but most things can be covered with two or three screenshots in my opinion.
