the mobile phone museum is a online museum featuring over 2000 types of old and funky phones that’s amazing for seeing old phones and getting info about them for stuff like writing/art or just because they’re so cool and i love them look at them

behold! some of my favourite silly creatures :3

My piece(s) for the Star Trek: TNG zine Little Treasures, by 1701D Baker Street! I’m sooo proud of this 🥹 Lore and Data based respectively on Alphonse Mucha’s “Lorenzaccio” and “La Dame aux Camelias”.

Check out the zine here:

can you recommend any posts that explain what fictionkin is? we want to discuss fictionkin with people we know, but they are mostly only familiar with "kin for fun" versus "delusional attachment" and we don't how to explain what fictionkin truly means.

Here's a list of links for ya:

An explanation of one individual’s fictionkin awakening, along with a comparison to being fictionhearted, from @/indornaga

On the difference between not being fictionkin until the source media emerges, versus not having a label for the fictotype until the source media emerges, from @/angelic-polar-fox

A perspective on being fictionkin, specifically OC fictionkin, from @/liongoatsnake

A more in-depth explanation of fictionkinity from @/shadowfae

A more general guide on questioning a kintype which has some very good general information/explanations, also from@/shadowfae

A thread of someone asking questions and fictionkin answering“Isn’t being fictionkin disrespecting the creator?”, from @/anti-kin-cringe

On fictionkin and how there’s no real “line” between fantasy/mythological creatures like dragons (hi) and fictional characters/creatures, also from @/anti-kin-cringe

On the history of fictionkin, from@/liongoatsnake

How do I drop a kintype? I'm tired of being harassed for having been a terrible person in a past life. And when I ask people not to harass me, they tell me, "If you don't want to be harassed then don't talk about it" but it's a major part of me, so never speaking about it anywhere is honestly pretty exhausting. Can I get rid of it?

I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through this. I want you to know it is not your fault for existing and there are places you can be open about this without being harassed, I promise.

I honestly don't think trying to suppress or "drop" this kintype is the right answer here - you'd be trying to cut out a major part of yourself to make other people happy, and that's rarely if ever a good idea. And historically, trying to get rid of kintypes rarely works and almost always does more harm than good - you could try to separate yourself from it, deliberately stop thinking of yourself as this person, avoid thinking about it by directing yourself to other things, but I can't promise that it would work.

I would instead recommend just... block people who are assholes religiously, and eventually you'll find yourself only surrounded by people who aren't. Weed out the people who don't know how to behave. They're loud, but that makes them sound more numerous than they actually are. I know there's a server or two specifically for "problematic" fictionkind out there that might be helpful to you; the Fictionkind Dreamwidth is also a place that would be free of harassment. I promise these spaces exist - it's just a matter of finding them.

(If anyone has any recommendations, please drop them in the notes - I'm not finding links to the aforementioned discord servers.)

EDIT: AH, nearly forgot! The lovely @goratrix-betrayed ran a panel about this very thing at Othercon a while ago; the script can be found on his system's website here. I highly recommend taking a look.

Is there any sort documentation on (possibly even a term for?) the phenomena of writers' OCs "writing themselves" where the character has traits and interests that the author didnt chose for them and at a certain point you can even suggest something for the OC and it will be denied by the character themselves??

Because this I've seen is such a common thing within OC communities and such but only ever discussed in a "haha i do that" type way and never a "what is it, how does it happen and how common is it?"

Ive had stories I've had to partially rewrite because the characters themselves went "nuh uh that didn't happen" ?????
