Non Human - Blog Posts
A list of my nonhuman/regression gear but it slowly turns less and less stereotypical:
1. My masks and tails. I love making masks and currently have 2 that I kept for myself. I also have a crow one I bought. I have 3 tails; wolf, coyote, and raccoon. Most I got from a renfaire I work at sometimes but I got the raccoon one from my partner because she's the best :3
2. Collars. Nuff said. Very dog. Very good.
3. Paw gloves and fingerless gloves :p
4. Chewtoys. I like biting stuff.
5. Stuffies. Specifically my raccoon and frog ones. All my stingray ones, too.
6. Small paw print blanket. Very soft. Good thing to just hold. Also my big knitted blanket. Good texture
7. My journal. Nice leather journal, my brother got me that I just fill with random thoughts and recipes. Helps me feel more creaturey.
8. Trinket shelf. I love trinkets and cool rocks. I also got a lot of bones.
9. Sticks. I have sticks everywhere from walks.
10. Paper crown and flower crown. Feels creaturey.
11. Compass necklace. There's a lot of misc. jewelry I consider gear but this one stands out.
12. My converse. All my converse. They feel like paws. I will only ever wear converse or my docs. My main 3 shoes are my glow in the dark bug converse, black converse with doodles all on em, and my brown converse specifically decorated with therian stuff.
13. My jacket and shirts. My green jacket is hgh. Me. It's me. I love that jacket. My color is green and it makes me feel like I'm me again. Its very soft too. Also, a shirt my girlfriend made me that has cut off sleeves and a bleached ribcage design that's really cool. Also have two sweaters that are very crittery and my Gorillaz shirt with their first album cover on it.
14. Anything minecraft related. I have a lot of minecraft stuff. One because I really like to play the game but also cuz it's home and I miss it.
Anyways, gear can be whatever. Have fun. (Also please talk to me about your gear that other people wouldn't really consider gear I love hearing about it.)
Throwback to this poem I wrote a while back
Plain text:
There was at one time,
A man I knew who spoke
With the crackle of a fire
Who had a cough
Like the devil himself had curled up in his lungs.
Who took me places
No wicked thing ever dared to trot.
He who stood so mighty,
The king of a southern summer,
And composed of the cicadas sympathy.
It is from him
I acquired my dirty paws,
These blood fangs.
From him came this wagging tail,
And hanging tongue.
Where my king of summer lies,
With the worms in his oldest home,
I stay his heir.
I haunt this town like an unmuttered curse.
And when they dare speak my name,
As if some insulting thing,
I think fondly of the man who gave me claws and teeth.
So that their insolence is not so easily forgiven,
And just as he,
Never forgotten.
I wanna hold this up to all those ass hats that get upset at stuff that dosent even affect them!!
When I adopted this mentality a year or so ago I felt so... free! I felt way more creative and happy!
People always say the world would be a boring place if we were all the same but I've seen the same people who say this, put down neo pronouns or plurality or any identity that doset fit neatly in a box.
I know it's a cliche and has been turned into a derogatory term, but I truly believe we are all like snowflakes. We're all made from the same stardust just shaped differently.
No human being is the exact same! And isn't that SO FREAKING COOL!!!!!
We, all of us, sentient meat bags are each so unique in our existence that most can't even comprehend each other!
It also costs NOTHING to be nice. To do as OP said and just say, "Cool." COSTS U NOTHING!!!!!!
Plus it feels good to be nice. And not just nice but curious.
I want people to stop insinuating that asking someone about their identity is a taboo thing or offensive in some way. NO!
As long as ur are respectful and genuine in ur curiosity and want to expand ur understanding then don't feel like ur gonna offend anyone
I know people are scared or prefer not to ask in public which is commendable because we all live in a shithole society. But the number of times in private I've had to repeatedly reassure my cis het friends that it's okay to ask, it's alot.
IT IS OKAY TO BE CURIOUS!
It is not okay to be an asshole or faint interest only to make fun of people behind their back! And if u don't get it and don't want to get it. That is also cool. Just leave people to themselves if they're trying to be comfortable in their own skin.
Can't express how stress free being open minded is.
Some lesbians use he/him? Oh cool.
Some people have people inside their head and sometimes it's fictional chars? Sick your brains like a pirate ship they're all working to run.
Some people like being treated like a pet dog? Bark bark bro.
Being fat isn't unhealthy but a perfectly normal type of body to have? Kinda beautiful how different we can all be.
Something doesn't make any fucking sense? Cool an opportunity to learn. And even if I can't figure it out it's cool we still have mysteries today.
So it's my birfday so I decided to do a little self-indulgent vent peice. I'm in a drawy mood, so if u wanna send suggestions, I'm all ears.
Like I said before, "The Last Unicorn" is my favourite animated movie because I really relate to the Unicorn. The scene this is referencing always stuck with me.
And as of late, as my existence is outright denied, and I'm being pushed out of a place I once called home. I feel this pain that only others like I understand. I'm forced to pretend and be what others perceive me as.
But I am not a white mare. The world of man is so easily deceived by what they want to see. They refuse the truth that stands before them.
Huh, I don't think I've ever actually thought about the true why, I thought I made art out of a want for love but looking back on it, this is actually right I always just felt so out of place except for when I was alone. When I showed off my art, people said it was good, but they always felt disturbed.
I'm glad I've moved here. I've made some great friends who lessen that isolation and alienation, but I don't think anyone who also isn't a nonhuman/althuman will understand.
If anyone else wants to try this(I recommend it), here's the website: https://uquiz.com/quiz/p0u5c3?p=1099743
Creatures who have told their IRLs your nonhuman identity: how did it go? I’m currently considering telling my partner, but I’m just curious about other’s experiences!
(We have a really good relationship and I’ve already explained that I’m more of a snake than a human, but I want to tell her more about the alterhuman community in general.)
I WANT SOME NON HUMAN FRIENDS AAA
(reblog if you want to be friends/moots, or even talk!! <Dm me if you want to talk :3>)
Wish I could do quads, but alas it is very hard to move like a snake…
I need some nonhuman friends 😭
I wanna bark at you for hours, I want you to pet my head, I want to nudge you and bite your arm affectionately
I want to switch and give you pets, I want you to make your animal sounds, I want you to nudge me
I just wish we could be animals again </3
Hi! friendly alterhuman reminder
your identity isn't static.
no one's is, neither our nor our human friends, we are forever changing, and this includes your kins. It is okay to gain an identity later in life, it is okay to lose one, this isn't static, this isn't forever. Ans that's okay. That's normal. Thats a part of life, your life.
do not feel guilty for losing connection with your older kins, maybe they were spiritual and you outgrew the age they died and there's no one to follow you anymore?
do not feel like you're faking for gaining connection to a kin later in life, maybe they were psychological and formed due to a recent experience?
do not feel guilty for experiencing any fluidity, not only your kins are fluid, your favorite color, your favorite band or animal, it all forms your identity, and that is forever changing, any and all experiences form you and your kins are not exempt from that! let them shape themselves, let them grow with you, theyre a part of you after all.
Let yourself grow.
ALTERHUMANS! preferably those who know a lot about labels and microlabels!! i neer ur help!
is there a name for when you want to be something REALLY BAD but you dont feel like you Are? like, you dont identify as that thing, but you really really wanna be it. is that a thing??
thanks!
had to reblog this comment in hopes more folks see this. i couldnt have said it better thank you @birdgirl22
Alterhumans! is there anyone else whose kintype is a carnivore, but you yourself are a vegan??? I'm a dog that never liked the taste of meat and went vegan for environmental reasons! lol
(that doesn't make me any less valid of a dog btw! >:3 my feeding preferences don't alter my identity!)

anybody just hates the usual human body care needs? hell, even animal ones, like no i dont wanna eat, sleep 8 hours a day, exercise, go on walks, and then also work for minimum of 8 hours and have to find 3 hours for relaxation and also shower and brush my teeth and
i wish i could just. sprout. photosynthesize. and just grow there, chilling, no nervous system, no brain, just grow and reproduce. and die in like a year, then get composted, god I'd love to get composted...
hey is anyone else just a furry alterhuman?? and i don't mean it like you're a furry (hobby) AND alterhuman (identity) i mean it as a furry alterhuman (identity). like my fursona IS ME. thats how i look like. thats ME. i AM an anthropomorphic dog and there's NOTHING you can do about it
This is your friendly otherkin reminder!:
You do NOT have to behave like your kintype to be it. As long as you look in the mirror and think to yourself "yeah thats a ___" or "this should be a ___" and feel good with it, you ARE that kintype!
hey uh is the strong desire to become moss normal or is that another one of my alterhuman identities i need to become aware of /genq
do not forget who you are.
Since my childhood I feel non-human, like a step next to humanity. I was aware about that feeling but I didn't know that a all community existed. I only discovered my alterhumanity (and the community) like 3 years ago, in 2022 and I accepted it the next year.
Hello alienkins , robotkins, monsterkins, vocaloidkins and otherkins in general!! How are you all?
Back with the questions!
One thing I've been curious about is, how long have you guys been aware that you're an otherkin? Like since you were a kid or did you only find out when you got older?
I don't really remember how long I've known I'm an otherkin, but I think it's been at least 4 years, I'm not sure!
11,15,16,18?
HELLO these might not be in the right order but ty for the ask <3
11. Strangest thing you do to affirm your kintypes?
I guess it is considered weird to fill my storage with pictures that remind me of home ?
15. How does being alterhuman affect your day to day life?
Well, it's certainly not pleasant to miss home almost all the time, but I try to deal with that. The real issues come with my interactions with humans. They're just so difficult to talk to and to please, but I don't want to put all the blame on them, because the feeling of inadequacy is the biggest obstacle that keeps me from functioning properly. It makes me really sad sometimes
16. Does being alterhuman affect your religious beliefs?
I'd say yes.
This is about my personal experience as an angel who used to serve certain deities, one of which I remember the most vividly. It was a god of time and healing and a protector of (mainly) small children and animals. My feelings of gratitude and devotion to this specific god are the strongest. In a way, this is what shapes my religious beliefs, right? I just never know how to label them because they're far from the concept of "religion" that humans have.
18. Does being alterhuman affect your gender?
Not really, no. I was assigned female at birth, but by the time I discovered my angelic nature, I was identifying as a trans demiboy. In 2022, I realized I was actually agender (and i also use xenogenders), but it was unrelated to my divinity.
