trans people, please remember that not all of us are 'human'. every time you put down the otherkin community, you are affecting transgender nonhumans who occupy trans spaces. You are telling us you think our identities are ridiculous, crazy, and simply a transphobic strawman. I see a lot of nonhumans who are also transgender, including myself, so it's not just catering to like three individuals; when you fight transphobic talking points, it's important to not step on the toes of the otherkin/nonhuman population. I cannot state this enough.
Im havin such a hard time makin Therian & Otherkin friends, i have no idea who’s ok with messaging & inbox rambles & who isn’t!
that's basically how it goes, yeah
Fish-rice integration is exciting. You harvest both fishes and rice on the same land. Do you like it?
too many stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for pretending to be something you aren't and losing yourself in the process. not enough stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for choosing to openly embrace yourself even if it's strange to other people

The idea of dragons in modern times is so fun because imagine a hot summer day on your vacay and go to use the hotel pool and staff is like "valued guests we regret to inform you that the pool area is out of service at the moment, we apologize for the inconvenience"
And people like "wtf why" looking out their hotel room window and there's this. This dragon just curled up in the pool chilling, literally, cooling itself down
Some of the staff are trying to gently shoo him away and the dragon does a soft little "rrrrrr" like a grumpy cat and a warning puff of smoke and they're like "fuck it i don't get paid nearly enough for this" and no ones using the pool today sorry!
a cute but disastrous old habit between a dragon and her foster knight
