    DID Diva asks: I feel as though I’ve noticed a recent influx of DID systems on social media, especially TikTok. I believe that these disorders exist, but I’m not convinced many (if any) of those online actually have the disorder.

    In Arkansas once, by Justin Hamm

    In Arkansas once,  near the Buffalo River. You might remember. The loneliest bull elkleft in America slowly lifted his racked head and looked around a vast, empty field. It was nearly dark,the first faint starsblinking to life above.A rare moment of quietin our car.

    HYPER/TEXT: Pining Pizza Boy

    I have it bad for my coworker at the pizza place. We’re both gender non-conforming, and we hit it off immediately.  I thought they were cute when we first met, but I brushed it off, since I typically don’t date coworkers.
