    Only the truly deranged and complete assholes refer to themselves in the third person. Which are you?

      This one is truly deranged, and it doesn’t think that it’s an asshole, although it does admit that it possesses one, for the sake of transparency.

      Anyway, it doesn’t think that you ought to bother others on proper pronoun usage. Doing so might draw the fire of those who wish to build a better world.

      Neither. Xi referred to dragself in the first person. Xi has first person neopronouns, xi/drag. Xi’s pronouns are person-independent, so they apply the same way in first, second, and third person.

      Most people have first person, second person, and third person object, subject, and possessive pronouns. That’s 9 pronouns! Xi only has 2 pronouns, so xi’s pronouns are much simpler and easier to remember.
