Therianthropy and the future

What does this look like in the future? The first step, in all good revolutionary world building, is the ability to envision a future. If you cannot imagine what a future looks like without prisons, without police, without capital, without states and without borders, how do you intend to ever see that world come to life? Someone asked what therianthropy looks like in the future on a forum I was on, and most critters said that it looks like it always has, it looks like something you hide away, something you don’t tell anyone, something you don’t explain. You don’t “come out” as therian because we live in a world where you cannot

6 months ago, I told my friends I was an animal, I had yet to identify it as therianthropy, simply rather that I am a dog, that I wear ears where my ears should be and a tail where my tail should be. By “coming out” I committed the taboo, I let people in. Since then I wore my gear (ears tail gloves and a collar) through the rest of my highschool life, I had a 3.25 gpa, I got pets from my friends on occasions and walked off stage with a diploma. One of my peers, not even a friend, said genuinely she thought I would wear white ears “to match your dress, of course, like a snow fox of some sort”. I had been understood as someone who has ears, who has a tail, it was simply part of who I was. 

I’m two weeks into college, I’ve been presenting and explaining myself as an animal pretty much always when asked, I talked to my anthropology professor and he suggested a feminist cultural anthropologist manifesto about the personhood of dogs, I’ve howled with friends at the night sky in the humid air that comes with the end of summer. It is understood that I am a dog, that I am a therian. To be honest classes are kicking me in the tail end, the food is weird, I’m breaking out for the first time in a long while.

Now I’m privileged, my animality doesn’t come in waves, I exist in a more constant state, without shifts and the like, I can control my vocal stims, I’m quite social and generally likable, I’m white, middle class, pretty. I’m trans but mostly binary, I have minimal species dysphoria, and what I do have can be alleviated by means available to me. I’m a dog, one of the most easy to explain theriotypes there is, but…

I did it! I’m living in the future, I’m living in the world that so many therians said could not happen, I’m barking, snarling growling proof that we CAN have a future, that maybe just maybe we can jam our paw in the door and let the zoo full of animals I call my friends through. Maybe if people can adjust to a dog then they can get used to a cat, a snake, a leopard, a fish, a bird, a dragon, whatever else! Maybe the way that I am lucky enough to live won’t be something we can all have in our lives, but maybe, just maybe, if we can show our pups and kits that this is a life they can demand, maybe they will get to have it too.

Run fast, bite hard, bark loud

Peace, love, and gratitude

I got a new tablet and decided to draw something on it. Let's hope this time i actually stick to drawing and don't drop it in a week (or less ;-;)

Also video of me struggling because Ibis paint does it for me so why not

I may not have known about this dude but better to avoid rather than to lament I guess. I don't want to catch a stray hateful comment just cause he decided to use the wrong tags

Alright everyone, he’s back!

Important!

Report and block @/basedhartman ! He is back with and is at it again, thank you to those who DMed me that he was back, I also got some lovely reblogs from his new account :>

He attacks, sends threats, and uses slurs towards:

- Therians/nonhumans/alterhumans

-Plus sized individuals

- Age and pet regressors

- Those who are plural, a system, have DID

- Those who are neurodivergent and or disabled

As always:

Don’t respond or interact with the blog, this is what they want + it hurts others for it spreads their posts, fight the urge to rightfully roast them!

PLEASE just report and block, you can report under hate speech

Ignore what they’ve said, their comments are meant to get a reaction out of us, let’s be better than them!!

Again, the blog is: @/basedhartman

I will NOT stop working to get these assholes gone, we’ve done it before, let’s kick them off of tumblr again. Let me know if you find other low life’s like this, I can spread the word about it for you.

Reblog to let others know (/nf) Take care and stay safe everyone! ♡

What's the most species euphoric thing y'all have ever done? I'll go first, quads with another therian in the rain. Literally the best thing ever I'm not kidding. You won't get it until you experience it.

[falaghax]

I need to know: what program do you use to draw, and what brushes do you use? Your art is so satisfying to look at

thanks!

It's firealpaca with the basic pen lol

and for the pixely brush, you can make it by disabling anti-aliasing and size by pressure

#17 - "Deity"

Smaugust 2024

Pray for me, Clearsight, for I have committed the following sins:

I keep forgetting to draw Qibli's freckles.

I keep forgetting to draw the ventral luminous patches on Seawings.

On #10, I referred to Tempest as a General, when her proper title is "War Commander"

I will continue Smaugust as my act of penance.
