Fish Tank system

Mixed origin traumagenic/quoigenic system of 7. We use I/we pronouns interchangeably, and when referring to the system as a whole, others should use he/him. The body is 25 years old, AFAB post-T, white, residing in the northeastern US. Diagnosed ADHD and major depression, possible/suspected autism.Almost all of us are hardline socialists or anarchists. Positions espoused may include orthodox Marxism, anarcho-syndicalism, libertarian socialism, Trotskyism, or post-leftism, depending on the member posting. Don't follow if you're against those schools of thought.We are not endogenic but we support endogenic systems. If you have a problem with that, kindly fuck off.


some of our blogs


partial member list

  • Garrett (jan Kelata) - 26, he/him - host, not always a people person. Current psychology major with a concentration in philosophy. Used to be a welder. Often kind of depressed/low spoons. Suffers from undiagnosed/mystery chronic back/joint pain. Gay trans man, questioning/possible aplatonic.

  • Frida (jan Wita) - 26, she/her - Very Much a people person. Loves cooking, drawing, and divination (tarot, astrology) even if she doesn't fully believe the supernatural elements of it. Always one for gossip and all things #relatable, generally acts as the system's sense of humor as well as managing most forms of self-care. Bisexual as hell. Previously known as Jenna when the system was younger, but hasn't used that name in a long time.

  • Data (jan Teta) - Unknown age, he/him - Star Trek fictive. Technically capable of emotion, but not as you know it. Logical to a fault, sometimes has trouble distinguishing the emotions of others. System's resident braniac - ask for nature facts. Sex-positive demisexual. Aware and accepting of the fact that he is not "the original," this causes him no distress whatsoever - he has full insight of his function and role as a constructed personality entity.

  • Delphi (jan Tepi) - Unknown age, they/them - Local cryptid or witch or something. System's spiritual nexus, loose gnostic beliefs with a definite postmodernist bent. Marked interest in philosophy, especially metaphysics, philosophy of mind, ethics, ontology, and political philosophy. Genderqueer alterhuman with minor seraphic traits e.g. horns, halo, multiple eyes, spectral wings. Keen fixation on the idea of truth; identifies as system truthspeaker. Likes wizardposting.

  • there are others (Cain, Liz, E), but either you won't meet them or they won't introduce themselves. you will probably only learn about others if we trust you, or if you meet us in person. For transparency, Cain and E are both minors. Only Cain is likely to engage online in any capacity - E is non-scribal and Liz is non-verbal - though he is discouraged from doing so for his mental health. The rest of the system may delete Cain's posts/interactions especially if they are of an inflammatory nature.


"nothing personal, kid" list
i.e. groups/topics some of us personally wish to avoid and might unfollow/softblock over

  • Anyone whose DNI criteria includes one or more of us (e.g. "men DNI") may be blocked preemptively, assuming we actually see the DNI (we do not go out of our way to scour bios/carrds tbh, curate ur own experience please)

  • Minors, that is, anyone whose body is under 18, will be softblocked (syskids/littles are allowed if they have adult bodies, but if your bio just says you're a minor without clarification, you're gonna get blocked)

  • Anyone who posts large amounts of shipping/fanfic content other than for media we happen to have viewed, especially RPS (DSMP, BTS, etc) and all unspoilered [X] x Reader fic will probably be unfollowed unless your other posts are really choice lol

  • Anyone posting large amounts of sexual content, especially content authored by or catering to female-attracted people, including text posts and memes, will be unfollowed, or softblocked if it ends up in my notifs. Dedicated porn accounts are blocked on sight unless they also reblog other types of posts.

  • Anyone who seems to frequently or intentionally provoke discourse and attracts a lot of harassing anons/comments and then "feeds the trolls" by responding may be softblocked for safety reasons (i.e., if your followers are likely to harass people you rb from). This is specifically blogs who do this all day every day, not just anyone who gets the odd rude person in their inbox.

don't ask personal questions unless you have been given permission on behalf of the whole system. don't ask Garrett questions about the system at all, he finds these triggering - save them for other members.
