CURRENT QUESTIONING IDENTITIES I just wanted to make this to not clog up my pinned lolz, I also saw someone else do it n it inspired me. Otherkin Types Zombie!! Ive been questioning this for awhile...it just feels right, idk how to explain it any other way haha..honestly might just be me being a chruch grim tbh.. Ghost!! I've been back and forth on this one for awhile, I can't tell if this is just conntected to me being a chruch grim or not !! Dragon!! I like to collect things and I feel very reptile like sometimes...that's really it haha..maychance... Robot/Automaton!! I've always felt very machine like and very uncomfortable with being made of flesh tbh... Alien!! This once again might just be related to me being able to be ANY canine...cuz I feel like a canine alien type beat whenever I feel like this. However when I was a kid I wanted to be an alien haha Angel!! I have been considering this the longest, it comes and goes and I don't really know where it fits in my life, especially because I am not religious in anyway. Siren/Harpy!! This is the second longest!! It just would explain alot about my life and my attraction to others. Therian Types Hare!! This is the newest one I have, I've been questioning everything else for years at this point, but this is very new, I dunno how to feel about it Dinosaur!! I've ALWAYS been conntected to dinosaurs, it may just be a hearttype, but when I was a childern I was convienced I was a dino.

Bands like Steam Powered Giraffe and The Mechanisms really help getting into the Automatonkin mindset.

(For the record, it was due to SPG that I discovered I am an Automatonkin, but that's a story for another day.)

Look at these guys and tell me they didn't have some kind of influence on you whilst discovering your Identity. ⚙️🩶

[futuristic-vampire-witch]

hey!! you seem super coll and i love your blog so far :] always cool to see another vampirekin and computer/tech-adjacent kin (as an automatonkin i feel the solidarity here)

-cecil the cowardly

Heyy!! You seem really cool as well :3

A part of me is like, "Be an all knowing being!! Immortal!! Be super compassionate to those who stumble upon my decrypted body! Read books to the kids at the library!! Teach them things nobody else can!! :D uwu"

the other is like "Monster robot. Body horror. Be something unimaginable. Be awe-inspiring and fear inducing. Make them beg for forgiveness. CLAWS. Sharp teeth. Show them that even if you no longer give into mortal needs, you'll still tear them apart."

And both are a mood tbh

Sometimes you're broken. But that's okay, you'll get repairs.

I made this with a pixel art app. I think it's pretty cool and it came out really cute!

new shirt!

Robotkin how do you deal with shifts like this, I’m in one of mine and it is so...

I don’t know how I feel

[automaton-bag-of-bones]

Things I've noticed I do as an automatonkin:

Manually thinking of every step that needs to be done when I drive a car, like "step on breaks, oops too hard, gentler next time" or "shift gear, turn blinker on, slow down, turn, now gas, etc"

Mechanical, stilted movements when packing the dishwasher.

Random pauses during walking to recalibrate my balance.

Paying too much attention to my limbs when in public to ensure I'm doing 'fluid' enough motions so I don't attract attention.

Putting my hands behind my back like Rabbit does in that one song (gif for reference)

(full video on YouTube called Honeybee by Steam Powered Giraffe, if ya wanna go look it up.)

Now that I think about it, most of my physical and vocal stims come from her!

Robotic pantomime when I'm bored.

That is all, thanks for reading!

Check out some of Steam Powered Giraffe’s other music, too! Their music and characters are also in DLC for a really cool game called Steamworld Heist, which I also recommend!

[just-a-lonely-bot-blog]

I've been listening to more of Steam Powered Giraffe and they're so good!
