Preserving Mogaipedia Using Carrd

Two days ago, I created a post to inform everyone that the information hosted on the hellhole that was Mogaipedia has not been entirely lost. While this is great news, the method in which it was preserved is not very accessible for the average internet user. In other words, actually accessing the information is kind of a pain in the ass and said access could certainly be streamlined, and quite easily. I decided to take it upon myself to fix this issue.

Basically, I am going to attempt to preserve and archive Mogaipedia.org using carrd. I am currently getting a list of all the terms that were saved by the Wayback Machine. I can confirm that at best, 80.8% of the articles were saved, leaving approximately 19.2% of the terms “lost”. I am going to use a few search tumblr tag search engines, go through @/mogai-watch-poems and one of her “personal” accounts where she wrote her poems before the creation of her infamous website to see if I can fill some of that ~20% gap. At the time of writing, I am on my initial sweep of the site and have archived 4.76% of the terms, not yet including a glance at her other accounts.

From there, I am going to use carrd to list out the terms and their definitions, along with any other relevant information found on mogaipedia. However, I will be doing fact checking and fixing any definition, attribution or categorization errors I come across and am aware of. This carrd will not include her shitty poems or her blithering bigotry. It will be all info; none of the offensive garbage. I’m going to be writing in the style of an alphabetical masterlist as opposed to a wiki. This is going to take a little while, but I consider preserving that website to be important due to how expansive it was, how long it existed and how much information it held.

I will continue to update the community on this endeavor as the situation evolves.

TL;DR: I’m archiving mogaipedia using carrd, but this, time, it will not include any of the petty bullshit. This is being done to preserve the information so that it can still be utilized, while also eliminating the vitriol the website platformed. 80.8% of the terms have been confirmed to be preserved using the Wayback machine, but I may be able to uncover more if I dig deeper. More to follow in the near future.

Some Advice for Gender Neolabel Coiners

Here are some pointers for those of you who are interested in coining new gender labels!

1. Keep it simple. You don’t have to mash up four to five different parts of words all into one to make a word that fits all aspects of your new term’s definition. You can simplify it to keep it short, or you can include non-gendered concepts like nature or space or mythological creatures. This is very common when people create systems of gender terms. Keeping terms accessible and easy to remember is very important!

2. Start in a place of familiarity. A good way to start coining labels is to come up with some new terms based on your own personal experience with gender. You can combine different aspects of your identity into one term and give it a solid definition. If you’ve always wished there was a word for your gender, try making one for yourself!

3. Look at other languages. A lot of the English language consists of Latin and Greek root words. This is a good place to start when coming up with new terminology because it’s what we’ve always done. Try looking up “Latin word for X” or “X in Greek” (X is the descriptive word you’re trying to use in your new term.) You can also use other languages as a basis for coining terms - French, Hungarian, German, Portuguese, whichever!

4. Make sure someone hasn’t already coined that term. There are a lot of people in the neolabel community and because of that, there are a lot of terms out there that describe many different experiences with gender. Take a look online or on social media to see if someone already came up with a term. You can also ask your peers if the label you’re trying to coin already exists. While it’s great to have many different flags for the same term, it’s way easier when we don’t have the same kind of label being coined by multiple sources.

4. Try making flags for your terms. It’s nice when a new label has a flag for it, especially when it fits the term in color and theme. If you want to try your hand at flag making, start with making them for terms you created yourself. Try not to overthink the colors or make the flag too complicated to reproduce - you want to keep things accessible!

6. Dabble in the abstract. There are many terms for fluid, masculine, feminine, static, void, and neutral genders out there. There are plenty of terms that combine these ideas together. It might feel like it’s hard to make a unique term that someone hasn’t already thought of. Try, instead, to come up with a word to describe an abstract feeling of gender. Common themes include celestial bodies, plants, animals, mythical creatures, elements, weather, and many others.

7. Keep a database of your terms. Archiving information is how you keep queer history alive. Find a place to put all of your newly created terms and allow others to have an easy way to find them. This is how we learn when terms were coined and what kinds of terms someone has coined. It’s almost like writing yourself into the queer history books, even if you feel like you play a very small part in them. Your part is still important!

Now go make some cool new terms!

disclaimer at bottom PLEASE read it

Obsesslovein

Your love is obsessive and all consuming. You might feel as though the only way to describe your sexuality/romantic orientation is as “obsessive”.

This includes acknowledging the harmful aspects of obsessive behavior.

Platonicobsesslovein

Your platonic love is obsessive and all consuming. You might feel as the only way to describe your platonic care/love for people is as “obsessive”.

When you make a friend you may feel as though you’re obsessed with them.

This includes acknowledging harmful aspects of obsessive behavior.

Faultobsesslovein

You identify as obsesslovein and feel guilty, upset, or otherwise bad for having obsessive behavior.

This is NOT romanticization of obsessive behavior. This is NOT related to yandere in ANY WAY. You must acknowledge the negatives of obsessive behavior, and understand that it is not related to yanderes before using this label.

[left image ID: The obsesslovein flag, it has a bright pink, magenta, and light red/pink stripe. In the middle is a heart with darker versions of the colors.]

[middle image ID: The platonicobsesslovein flag, it has a red, pink, and orange stripe. In the middle is a heart with darker versions of the colors.]

[right image ID: The faultobsesslovein flag, it has a purple, light blue, and light purple stripe. In the middle is a heart with darker versions of the colors.]

I spent too much of my life being angry, obsessive, rude, and even bigoted. I wish more than anything to move past the person that I used to be. To stop expecting the world to revolve around me and forcing myself onto other people (as in idealistically, not physically!) Healing sucks. Being kind after being a vile person sucks. There's always a feeling of doubt in the back of my mind that the amount of good I put out into the world does not ever make up for my past. I want to mean something. I want to change something. But it's hard for me to believe that's even possible.

I was one of those white vegans who refused to analyze why veganism for me is an entirely different experience than that of vegans of color and how veganism can harm a lot of communities of color. My vegan stances hurt someone in my community. I was one of those people who would scour someone's blog to find something that was "problematic" and harass them about it - and this was without even checking this person's age! I harassed minors for no good reason! When someone didn't want a coined term to be connected to my blog, they asked me to take it down and I refused to do it (and to this day I'm still hoping that person can tell me what term it was so I can finally have it removed.) I used to harass people in Discord servers over what I thought was something problematic when nothing bad was even happening. I was incredibly reactive, even though I considered myself to be "on the good side" (but my side was very white-focused and aggressive.) I caused a lot of trouble and harm in the neolabel community and to this day, I'm still paying for it. It still feels like there's a wall between myself and the people I want to make content for.

How does someone with such a vile past move forward and actually prove that they've changed and grown? How does someone find a way to reach out and be good to those who still want to be around? How do I know if what I do matters? After the therapy and the healing and finding a better place for myself, what happens after that?

Even this post is all about me, how I feel, what I want, how I can benefit from all this. Everything I do that is good scares me, because I'm always afraid that maybe I'm just trying to make myself seem more important than I actually am.

hi haven't touched this sideblog in a while ^_^" unfortunately i think i've lost interest in coining and collecting mogai labels, but i haven't lost interest in the general community just yet... i want to continue this account but may take it in a different direction!

i've been honing in on my art lately, and my idea is to take requests for certain labels/flags and design characters based off of them! they'd mainly be nonhuman/furry characters because i enjoy drawing those the most (you can peek at my art account @dariberri if you'd like examples of how that'd look)

lmk if this interests anyone! if not then my second idea would be to get a sysmate to take over (ivor and fraiser in particular both have a strong interest in coining and neolabels) so either way the account would still be running!

this infodump is brought to you by [ this poll ] by @lostlovepunk that asks whether one considers it/its pronouns neopronouns or not.

short answer: i don't! it doesn't fit the category of 'neopronoun' to me.

long answer: as an it/its user who has been around neolabel communities for over a decade, i don't! here's why:

in my brain there are two categories of neopronouns: archaic & contemporary/'true'.

archaic neopronouns (for example: e/em/eir, sie/hir) generally predate the modern concept of pronouns as personal gender expression and were often created to serve the same purpose singular they/them does today— neutral pronouns that can be applied to anyone, especially if an observer cannot label them as 'she' or 'he'. archaic neopronouns are only thought of as neopronouns because they are human pronouns that aren't binary ones.

'true' neopronouns (for example: nounself pronouns like sprout/sprouts, though not all are nounself pronouns), by contrast, are made in the context of very current understandings of gender & pronouns as gender, and chronologically are literally new-pronouns. neo-pronouns. neopronouns. that's why i think of them as 'true' neopronouns.

in both of these cases there is person-focused intent. in the case of 'true' neopronouns, there is a necessary time limit on their creation. it/its pronouns are most often applied by observers to non-persons (whether because the subject is an actual object or animal, or as a method of violent dehumanization). it/its has carried that usage for centuries, all the way back until you get to when he/him was ungendered and used for the same purpose. it/its has a history unto its own, and its current place in language leaves its intent up to the speakers.

now, all of this aside—

i have some pretty stringent criteria in terms of what i consider true neopronouns. not everyone thinks this way (re: the poll). so, how are neopronouns generally defined?

from what i can tell, "neopronouns" colloquially are just, sort of any pronouns that aren't she, he, or they. and i guess under that definition it/its are neopronouns. and i think that's bullshit, so...

surprise poll!

Some Advice for Flag Makers

Hello! I’ve been making pride flags for a while now, especially for identities labels that haven’t existed before. I’d like to share a few pointers on how to make some good flags that stand out.

1. Simplicity is better. You don’t always need an intricate flag with lots of symbolism and colors for every single type of experience under that label. You can use fewer stripes, less detail, or a simplified symbol. This makes the flag easy to reproduce or edit, but it also represents the identity a lot better. Remember: You can’t cover every single experience within an identity label. Have you seen what the Gilbert Baker pride flag stripes represent? It’s not gender or orientation.

2. Don’t make the colors so obvious. You don’t have to use blue for boys or pink for girls. You don’t even need to use blue for masculine or pink for feminine. Colors can represent all sorts of different ideas and they shouldn’t be tied to just one experience. Have you seen the stargender flag? It’s very blue, but it doesn’t represent boyhood or masculinity!

3. Make sure your colors don’t “bleed”. Eyesore flags don’t feel too good to some people. This doesn’t just refer to super saturated bright neon colors, but also to flags with stripe colors that “bleed” into one another as if they’re blurred together. You want colors with great contrast. Two colors that are notorious for bleeding are gray and red, but it’s also easy to work with these colors if you know how to tweak them to work better.

4. It’s okay if someone else already made that flag. Yes, even if someone already made a flag that’s been widely accepted by the community, putting your own spin on a flag is super fun. This is a type of art after all, and creating your own version of a flag is like expressing your own interpretation of a concept and letting it reflect in said art. The lesbian flag has dozens of different versions, but that’s okay!

5. Practice. Try recoloring flags with different themes to practice working with colors - colors based on seasons, on feelings, on pronouns, on favorite characters, on something you’d find in nature - anything at all! Combination flags are also good practice - that’s when you take two or more flags and merge them together into one. You can also take requests from people.

6. Keep a database of your flags. Archiving is incredibly important because information is important. People want to see the history of a flag or term. They want to see what identities were coined when, and why certain colors were chosen for the flags of those identities. They want to see how many people were identifying with a term at a specific point in time. Keeping a database of flags you’ve created and giving people an easy way to find them all is a good way to establish yourself as a creator and an important part of queer history - no action is too small in our community!

Now go out and make some flags!

Genuine question, what do you have against other mogai labels? Also... What do you even *count* as mogai labels, pansexual usually isn't counted as such?.. Tbh I hate how the acronym MOGAI has somehow come to mean neolabels instead of what it was intended as and it isn't even always clear what counts and what doesn't

mogai grew out of a collective ignorance of lgbt history, out of the now populist belief that lgbt elders were limited in who they "counted" as bi, lesbian, trans and gay. for example, It ignored historical bi texts like anything that moves and the bi manifesto which always defined bisexuality as being attracted to more than one gender.

Mogai was deeply rooted in lesphobia and transphobia too. If you don't experience attraction to men, but wanna call yourself anything but a lesbian, that's lesbophobia. The word lesbian is one of the most censored words in history and MOGAI just made a whole fucking glossary out of ignoring lesbianism. Also, the very idea that you have to come up with a whole new identity because you like someone whose trans is transphobic and isn't rooted in the solidarity that the lgbt movement advocated for.

Also, I was on Tumblr when MOGAI was at its peak and when I tell you that I'm still dealing with some of the internalised homophobia and biphobia encouraged by the "discourse", believe it!!! I'm sure MOGAI was helpful for some individuals and good for you, but it can be directly connected as a contributor to the rise of transmedicalism, and to the disintegrating solidarity within the queer community. MOGAI was A movement that only encouraged separation, individualism and exceptionalism - 3 ideals that inherently work against everything the lgbt community and movement was established to rail against.

You can get mad at me for saying this or go learn your lgbt history and learn that you're not special, nor are you alone. OR watch these because they're great breakdowns of why MOGAI was and is problematic:
