As weird as it sounds a big perk of being nonhuman is the cognitive dissonance. Like yeah I’m in a human body but I’m not really a human at all, and when that feeling of disconnect is the strongest - but not actively painful - I can sit back and watch that, despite everything, humans are good. Most humans want to help each other thrive, spread kindness, and bring joy to the lives of others. They love people in their lives so deeply. Sometimes they give me that love, too. Even if I am not one of them, they do not mind. They’ll care for me as if I was their own kind. There’s something indescribably beautiful about that, that I don’t think humans really see.
My dog therianthropy is really weird. Like, normally when I'm calm and stuff I'm just a big gentle dog. Just a house pet who loves pretty much unconditionally. I'll feel my ears and they'll be floppy, ya know, the natural ears for a great Dane. But when I'm angry or nervous I'll feel a lot more aggressive and like I wouldn't regret hurting someone. Like it's my job. I'll feel my ears and they'll be docked. And sometimes I'll get herding urges?? I don't think I have a herding dog theriotype I'm just a great Dane that's sometimes a herding dog?? Pretty sure this is from me being around my grandparents a lot when I was younger and they have chickens so I just grew up chasing them and "Herding" them. (Anytime I go there since they still have chickens I'll herd them <33 I recommend herding chickens to everyone who can it's so fun omfg) It's like a spectrum.
I have now added otherhearted and will be taking suggestions on what else to add until the end of May. If anyone has any suggestions whatsoever of what symbols to add to the journal, please tell me before May is over, so I can get all of the symbols onto the cover . Thank you
my irl friend just downloaded tumblr and i'm really nervous because they might find my account (i use the same username for all of my socials) and they will find out i'm otherkin and i know they won't accept me for being alterhuman :(
oh, you're sad? *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you* *wraps my wings around you*
Therians who mock Therians (young or old) for wearing gear are stupid. I saw a post of an adult Therian mocking two CHILDREN (aprox 11-12) for wearing tails and masks.
The Therian community is already hated enough, for someone to think they are better than another Therian for expressing their Therianthropy differently is moronic.
They also remarked them being “tiktok” therians and “fake” for it. Seriously what the fuck. People like this bristle my fur so much, just no. No.
This goes out to all the Newly awakens. If you wear gear, you are no less or more than a Therian who doesn’t. That goes for the opposite as well. Express your identity however you wish, stay safe out there <3
