#otherkin rambles

[otterwithatophat]

Just watched How to train your dragon for the first time in a while, and omg I forgot how euphoric that movie is. I can feel the hyperfix coming back already.

[hyp3rk3l]

Did anyone else watch videos like 'How to Become a Fox' when they were like 4, or was that just me not realising i was a therian

[npd-enigma]

it's so funny how I can meow more realistically than bark, if I try to bark it's just high pitched like a tiny dog, and if I meow, I sound like an old ass cat

I cannot growl or do other stuff though, I can do a cats "mmmmmmmm" when angry, and can hiss when scared (i don't do it on purpose actually) but other than that I still can't get the other noises yet 😭

I can do a bird sound tho

[humansconfusemeletmebark]

Kinda nonhuman because mental illness, kinda nonhuman because not being properly socialized as a kid, kinda nonhuman because queer, kinda nonhuman because angry at humanity, kinda nonhuman because longing for the unconditional love of a pet and it’s master, and kinda nonhuman because secret sixth thing.

[cheetahtism]

having irl therian friends is kinda funny cause whenever we meet anywhere its just like

[mewos-laptop]

Dude I need ppl to get real normal abt mental-illness born alterhumanity real fast

"Oh well alterhumanity is smth you're born w/ and there's all these rules !!!" No lmao

There are literally no rules, and I NEED ppl to stop spreading that false info online lmaoooo

Literally if you feel like an animal (nonhuman) in any way shape or form, then literally use the label.

Ppl irl will try their best to understand, and literally no one outside of the internet cares abt sum1's identity as much as you think they will.

Tbh just live true to yourself, and dude, shoutout to my alterhumans who are non-human in whatever way because of their neurodivergency/mental illness. I see y'all, and I love y'all.

I love how tumblr is so over the top compared to other platforms, in everything else alterhumanity feels so watered down.

In other platforms, I see otherlinks constantly being shat on, nonhuman traits that aren't just vocals being considered a bad thing, physical therians being erased or any discussion regarding them becoming a forest fire , and the only alterhuman content around just ends up being quads and masks with a dash of 'remember, therians know they're physically human and many/most therians only partially identify as an animal, not fully'

Tumblr?? I see people making long text posts about how everything is valid! Physical therians run wild! People are proud to bite, scare people, and be fully nonhuman! You see the terms transspecies , holothere ,nonhuman thrown around without much argument against it!! There are multigenic nonhuman collectives all over the place!! You can post about whatever the heck you want, you can be fully nonhuman, your alterhumanity can be a kink, your alterhumanity can be related to pet regression, your alterhumanity can be whatever the heck you want!! You're a creature!!

I dunno. I love tumblr it's the only place I've really managed to be nonhuman properly.

Sometimes you just… mourn your true self. I feel like I’m wearing a fucking human skin suit, and it sucks. Like I don’t always hate being human, but sometimes it just really hurts. I’m supposed to be on four legs, have paws, pointed ears, and a most definitely not human body. Everything just feels wrong, and I want to whine, and cry, and tear my belongings to shreds to get rid of the pain.

[raysrambles]

walking by my therian friends in the hallway is like. there's secretly a wolf right there and a fucking dragon just down the stairs... but only we know about it. we're undercover agents

Honestly y'all need to chill with the "nonhumaness needs to be involuntary!"

The only reason you're saying that is due to wanting to present 'valid' enough for outsiders. It's not a choice so they won't bully you, like they do furries or other people.

And I hear you cry "but KFF!". KFF aren't nonhuman, they just relate. If someone comes over to me and says "I choose to be nonhuman today, I am nonhuman no matter what other ppl tell me. I genuinely identify as nonhuman." That isn't KFF, that's a nonhuman.

Truly, I'll just go "woah...that's so based". Because truly, what are our differences? We both genuinely identify as nonhuman....and yeah that's about it.

You might say, "they don't experience shifts!" There's nonhumans that don't experience shifts. And there's humans that experience shifts, we call it the "shifter's disease". Basically when a full human researches or is around nonhumans and begins feeling phantoms or feeling nonhuman, despite not being nonhuman. So it isn't exclusive to us.

"They don't have noemata!" There's nonhumans that don't have noemata.

"They don't suffer species dysphoria." Theres nonhumans that don't experience species dysphoria. Also cool transmed rethoric.

"They weren't born with it!" There's nonhumans that become nonhuman later on in life.

"They didn't wish their whole life to be a different species!" And? I can imagine there's some nonhumans that didn't even realize they wanted to be/were a different species.

"It's disrespectful to nonhumans that suffer due to their identity!" Another cool transmed rethoric. It's only disrespectful to you because you're up your own ass and believe that anyone who didn't suffer like you did, that didn't have it as hard as you isn't as valid as yourself. But what you don't realize is by having that belief you are excluding such a large portion of your community.

There's involuntary nonhumans who don't suffer from their identity at all and they're still part of our community.

The line between voluntary and involuntary can get blurry very quickly and hard to describe. But truly, you are no one to say who can use a label that rightfully describes their experiences.

Get real and truly think about why you're so upset at someone having a good faith identity.

[dinocanid]

There are people who's self perception is a human. Like if they were to imagine themselves in their head, it's a human. That's fucking bonkers to me and blows my mind legitimately

[npd-enigma]

Call me grr boy with the way i be grrin (why do ppl enjoy my shit)

[puppiemomo]

autism that makes you a dog.

[plaguedoesart-xp]

fictionkin sleepovers/hangouts

fictionkins exploring each other's sources and getting giddy when they refer to each other as their kins.

fictionkins explaining their past lives to each other, and maybe finding sourcemates.

fictionkins making cosplays of their kins and talking to people as them.

fictionkins drawing what they looked like/what their sourcemates looked like and showing each other.

fictionkins running through the woods together and being asked what it reminds them of.

fictionkins feeling valid and appreciated for who they are. <3
