#Kin positivity

[whenjustdancehitsdifferent]

Sending some love today to fictionkin, particularly from superhero, sci-fi, or fantasy settings, who experienced kinds of trauma that have nothing in this universe to compare it to:

Injuries (both major and minor) that came from magic

Death, perhaps even more than once if revival magic existed in your source

Illnesses that don't exist in this world

Mind control/possession (might make a whole other post about this one)

Combat/getting in life threatening fights that involved magic or fictional weapons

Various spells, curses, or potions

Being stranded away from home in another planet/dimension/timeline

Apocalypses

Your trauma is real, even if it didn't happen right here, and you're not 'crazy' for feeling upset by it, even if there's no equivalent in this place. I know your non-kin friends might not always get it, and it's not typically something you can seek a therapist about, but your pain isn't 'stupid' no matter what anyone else thinks about it.

Shoutout to adults in the kin community, whether you also identified as kin from a younger age or not. So often this identity is seen as a phase or something only younger people identify as, but there are those of us out here in our 20s, 30s, 40s, and older living our lives and existing out in the world.

To those of us who grew into it, to those of us that grew with it, I see you and love you.

Honestly I love the alterhuman community because even in smaller subcultures you have WILDLY different experiences yet everyone finds solidarity among each other. It's so cool to see how diverse the world can be yk

[timberbark]

i love being a canine alterhuman!

i don’t care that it’s common to have a canid theriotype. i love the freedom to feel like me, to feel so canine-brained and experience happiness as a dog.

it makes me so happy to see other kin appreciate and love their theriotypes too — your identity is yours for a reason! don’t let people make you feel shame for it 🤍

I was really into being otherkin for a while, and while it never left me, I felt distanced. I'm dragonkin, can I have some positivity?

hey! i get it, i feel distanced from my otherkin self sometimes too. it happens to the best of us. try to remember that you will always be who you are, no matter what. you will always be a beautiful, majestic dragon, and the people around you will sense it. hang in there :3

[kincalloutsandotherstuff]

You kin Alastor?

Tbh you guys are hard to read but if I had to guess...

1. You suppress your emotions

2. You use dark humor to cope

3. You have ADHD(idk, it's just a hunch I have)

[bizarreaizen]

every time i stutter when i'm talking that means i'm glitching and every time i get confused that means i can't process it or there's an error in my code [typing this as i'm currently charging :3] /gen

[toxi-kins]

Hello fellow otherkin. To those mourning their wings. Their old home. Their past. It's okay. A kiss from an angel to you. These things, they aren't an exact science, you see? You aren't cursed with this pain, loss is just a consequence of life. Without this pain we wouldn't know joy. Celebrate with me. Celebrate what you've experienced. What you have yet to experience. Your perspectives. It's beautiful. It's part of you. Don't give up, okay? There's still so much more to see.

[yourfavoritemenace]

can I get a kin acceptance for a Canadian lynx who sometimes smiles w/ teeth to show mischief instead of as a threat? Someone said I'm invalid for it ):

Sit super te luceant stellae

Oh of course dear !! /p

invalid? Nonsense !! Your fangs are so beautiful, who wouldnt want to flash them to show a little mischief? You are valid no matter how you show that toothy smile!! It doesn’t matter how you act or present, you are valid as long as you believe you are! So even if you grin to show mischief or a threat or whatever emotion you are feeling, remember that you are who you are, and that’s all that matters !

[kintype-khronicles]

Step 1. Take a deep breath.

Step 2. Think about yourself.

Step 3. Focus on your memories (if you have any), no matter how fuzzy.

Step 4. Allow yourself to feel all the feelings you have. Soak in it.

Step 5. If you still don't know who you're shifted to, know that it's okay, and that you're valid and beautiful.

Step 6. Love yourself.

Have a great day, everyone. <3

[k1npositive]

It's okay to not have any kin memories. They're not required to be valid.
