Aangelous [A (without)-Angel-Ous (possessing the qualities of)

A term connected to one who is supposed to be an angel, where one died but could not go to heaven for some reason, being trapped and changed and now unable to be a 'real' angel.

This can be a gender or species term, or even an orientation if you're feeling it like that.

Colours are based off of 'traditional'/'common' colours associated with angels/heaven fading into darker colours to symbolize the disconnect from one's formerly angelic nature and how it has been 'corrupted' or altered so one is not 'perfect' or 'correct' anymore.

Generalizing Communities and Harassment

[PT: Generalizing Communities and Harassment /END PT]

I don’t really do discourse [Not that this is discourse, I’m just not sure how to refer to this situation.] but I have opinions and need to share them.

I would like to preface this with I do not know Till/idwl or really anyone in mogaiblr personally but I’ve interacted with faer on multiple occasions (on anon) and even if void did something wrong [which, let’s be clear, I don’t believe void did], it’s not okay to harass void or anyone else accused of unfounded or even founded bullshit. I, admittedly, am a person who, when I get especially upset with things I see, has said that mogaiblr sucks, but I acknowledge and know that I meant that the parts that condone harassment and the people who harass suck.

Harassment even if ‘deserved’ is never okay. If you have a problem with someone, just talk to them, because it’s often a misunderstanding, but harassment and bullshit ‘callouts’ ESPECIALLY when there is LITTLE TO NO EVIDENCE supporting them are bullshit and will just hurt innocent people. Being a cunt to people, even if those people are actually bad, which they often aren’t, is just an excuse to hurt people and be a cunt without feeling bad about it.

Why can’t people be given the benefit of the doubt anymore? In the US, which I know a fair chunk of mogaiblr users are from, it’s innocent until proven guilty, so why in this community is it guilty even once proven innocent?

The fact anyone has to say harassment isn’t okay is ridiculous. It is not and has never been okay and it never will be okay no matter who it’s directed towards.

I do my best not to hate people because of my belief system, but I have no problems saying that I hate the choices that people have made to harass Till and anyone else who’s been driven out of the community or hurt by it in any way. These things are not okay and even if the accusations were true [Which, clarification, again, I don’t believe they are.], it wouldn’t excuse harassing faer or anyone else.

Obviously not all of mogaiblr supports or condones harassment, in fact, most of it doesn’t, but I do understand why people would think that way and sometimes I myself even think that way because of just how loud and pervasive harassment and hate can be. [Not saying that I or anyone else /should/ think that way, but I feel it’s important to not act like I don’t or haven’t.] But we should all at least acknowledge that most of the community aren’t like that and it’s not okay or right to act like it is.

TLDR; Harassment is bad even if someone did actually do something, especially when the person being harassed didn’t do anything wrong.

Time to figure out how the queue thing works-

Doctorian

A gender where you are a doctor. Not a boy, not a girl, not nonbinary, just doctor. This gender can only be described as a doctor, the user of this gender is a doctor.

This can be a gender umbrella term, but it is initially a standalone gender. Tag me if you make a gender stemming off of this one.

this is not inherently a xenogender, but it can be
