Every time I encounter another person who uses ey/em/eir in the wild, I'm like, "Sibling! Come to me, that we may celebrate our shared pronouns together! It has been many moons since I last met one who chose to follow Spivak and Elverson." But only internally, so I don't feel like a creeper.

If I ran into another ze, zir, zim, I would likely react very well to that sort of reaction. Does this make us pronoun cousins?

I like it! Another option might be that we're in different branches of the Cool Pronouns Club. Both would also work, of course 😉

I feel like it's at the Venn Diagram intersection of gender euphoria, gender compersion, and the Same Hat phenomenon. Like, you already get joy from your pronouns, you're happy when someone else gets joy from their own pronouns, and then sometimes they're the same pronouns!
