Calling all angelkin, godkin, devinekin, aviankin, dragonkin, and any other flying kin out there: here, have some photos from my "pictures of super cool clouds I took on my flights to the main land" collection. My treat :3

Hope you enjoy <3

Sincerely, your fellow flying creature, Cadence ^w^

[bizarreaizen]

y'all need to realize that people's identity doesn't harm you, like bro who cares if someone named bug, who uses cat/it pronouns, identifies as a fox and has xenogenders? like it's not harming you is it? let people live their life, if they are happy and they're not harming anyone or themselves, who the hell cares?

[wildlycalmotherkin]

reblog this post (/nf, you don’t have to!!) if u have an alterhuman blog (stuff like otherkin/hearted, therian, fictionkin, etc) i want to find more alterhuman blogs that i can maybe follow

(edit as of march 17 2024. i literally almost never use this post to find blogs i can follow fjksfjfjs)

[malicexnull]

For other therians/otherkins/alterhumans:

I see a lot of posts about phantom limbs, which is fair. It's upsetting when people can't see your limbs! I understand

BUT I also wanted to tell you all that a few weeks ago my irl friend Onyx was happy and I was sitting next to them and they had a phantom tail and I could feel THEIR tail wagging. I could see it even if I couldn't SEE it. I'm also autistic and can't read body language so it isn't that I just saw that they were happy, it was SPECIFICALLY their tail that made me recognize that they were happy

Humans may not always be able to be as on-level with us but I like to think after that that they can feel it sometimes, they can tell your tail is wagging!! They just might not understand how they know or what that means

Can we take a moment to appreciate forests?

I went out to the forest next to my city with my mom today, wearing my tail

It was the best experience I've ever had, there were barely any people, the weather was perfect, my siblings weren't there to complain, I was just walking around with her

It was amazing

Forests are majestic and magnificent, people don't appreciate them enough

I don't care about the bugs, or the annoying small plants, or even the people.

Forests just make me feel so... Alive.

Reasons someone may identify as alterhuman/otherkin:

They believe they are spiritually anchored to their 'kintype

They believe they have been reincarnated and were their 'kintype in a past life

They feel like they are a part of their 'kintype in a familial way

They feel as if part of their soul is their 'kintype

They have been dehumanized in the past and now their 'kintype has attached to their identity

They have non-human system members/headmates

Their neurodivergence causes them to associate themselves with their 'kintype

They experience clinical lycanthropy

They find peace when they ID as their 'kintype

All of these are valid and important parts of our community. Spiritual and psychological alterhumans are important and the reasons for your identity as alterhuman are often complex! They are equally welcome here. :)

average alterhuman just chilling:

[canidbrained]

smth about how therianthropy and transgenderism are similar and yet also pitted against each other yet at the same time so many therians are also trans and so many trans people connect their identities to animals in some way

[inhuman-onhuman]

[*] Applicable to all nonhumans/alterhumans- otherkith, systems, voidpunk, etc.!

[**] Not when you found out about the terms. But when you first started to relate to things other than humans

My own experience (feel free to share your own in the comments/reblogs! id love to see it!):

Ever since I was young, I almost only consumed content about inhuman things. Robots, zombies, animals, nature… you name it. Warriors Cats, Transformers, My Little Pony, basically anything David Attenborough was in.

When I watched Pokemon as a kid; I didn’t want to be a trainer, I wanted to be a Pokemon. When I read about animals from the books in the library; I mimicked what they did, imagining myself as a cardinal flying through the trees or a serval stalking through the grasslands. A sundew curling around its prey, a werewolf’s painful transformation.

And well, I always had an active imagination. When I was in elementary school and preschool, you weren’t allowed to go back inside during recess if you were cold. So I just sorta taught myself how to perceive things differently! I could make my body warmer just by thinking of it. Then, later I could manifest the feeling of wings, animalistic legs, sharper teeth, horns… yeah.

This definitely led to where I am now. A both spiritual and psychological connection to who I am deep down. I am human, yes. But over a lifetime of being unable to relate to others led me to find kinship in unlikely places.

Hi

I would like to know what types of alterhumans are the most present on Tumblr ✨

If you are fictionkin and therian, for exemple, vote for the dominant kintype and if you don't have a dominant kintype, press other.

Eeeee yes I have forgot the t in plantkin 😅

[bizarreaizen]

me when listening to music:

[cozy-kitty-corner]

something that I’ve found recently on YT is a startling number of people speaking about ‘fake therians’ and I don’t understand it. Does it really matter if somebody’s not therian but believes they are? Maybe they’re some other kind of alterhuman but they only know of therians, but even if not, why does it matter. If you have a reason, then tell me why it matters. Because if it’s not harming anyone, leave them alone. If it’s actively harming somebody then that’s a different matter, but. Why.

[ballsalsda]

Unpopular opinion: let people have fun and be cringe. Let that 11 year old therian identify as a crow. Let that 14 year old on tumblr use 🍁/🍁self pronouns. Let that middle schooler be obsessed with undertale and be asrielcharic. Let that random person on pinterest have a board of xenogenders and catgenders. A random internet person identifying as a hairbrush harms absolutely NO ONE. Period.
