Hi! friendly alterhuman reminder
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!
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
uncomfortably scrunching up my wings to fit in a small space but then remembering I don't have wings anymore

‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾ Complex stuff: Divinekin. I am not divine from a certain religion (although personally I practice Hellenistic Polytheism). I was born in the stars and from the stars. My identity works more like a memory. Fictionkin. From Warrior Cats, but I'm not a named cat from the books. I'm one of the warriors from Riverclan that were never mention, so it's kinda weird to think about. Idk much else about it for sure yet besides that I was a Riverclan cat. ☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙

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!
for me, it was similar.
from my 'fallen angel' side, my wings were ripped from me as punishment for not being the ideal angel, to which i was banished away from heaven, almost pushed off from there. however, rather than being sent to hell, i was sentenced to a "purgatory" of sorts, which is here, this place on this earth.
from my 'god/deity' side, it was a similar story, with the only difference being that i was seen as an unworthy deity, one that's corrupt, with others not liking me
neither of these had corrupted me (maybe because i was already corrupt?), rather it only scarred me.
i still have retained parts of my divinity, though i am still stuck in this purgatory
hope this makes sense!
alright so fallen angel describes the fall from grace. Though to some individuals its taken literally - angels falling through the sky. Some art depicts broken/burnt wings
Me personally - i didnt fall. My wings (my holiness) were ripped from me as a punishment and it corrupted me, changing me from my angelic form to my demonic, and i was banished to "Hell."
how did yall experience your fall from grace? (Both pychological/spiritual/etc kins welcome to share)
A message to the younger members of the community, and those who doubt there place in it:
Beings don't care.
I went to a therian meet up over anthro northwest. And it was NOTHING like the current online spaces, especially all the discourse.
There was no fighting. It was beautiful. Beings were freely using whatever labels they wanted, no one cared "why" someone identified as something, mental, spiritual, physical. Everyone was like "Hey, cool!".
Older folks talked about their time in the community while the younger ones did quads. People howled, played with squeak toys. No one cared. And most importantly, everyone agreed the infighting was pointless.
You WILL be accepted irl. This discourse doesn't matter. You are going to find your beings, and none of these online pissing contests mean anything once you meet others off the screen.
It's a beautiful place out there.
I know i have said it before but I GOTTA SAY IT AGAIN 💀🙏
(Again, this is meant in a more lighthearted/humor way, if something actually bothered me THAT much i would try to give it no attention so-)
But those folks that say stuff like "Trust me you don't."
"You would NOT want that"
When ANYONE says just ANYTHING about wanting to be an animal or creature or live in a fantasy world go on my nerves 😭
I just saw another video where someone talked about how they wished we had dragons, super powers, zombies, vampires etc. And like, hell yeah!?
Half if not all of the comments were "But we have Wifi!"
"But we have cars which is pretty cool"
"We have the universe!"
"You would NOT want zombies to be a thing"
I have so many questions like, What happened to joy and whimsy??
Why would you compare a dragon to a CAR?? Like i get where they're coming from like, yeah i mean it's cool humans came up with that! But it's definitely not a HTTYD situation lol
I even saw a comment saying some shit along the lines of "If you wanna be in a fight with a wild creature so badly, why don't you go to a zoo and fight a lion?"
SAME DAMN VIBES AS "If you identify as a wolf, why don't you go outside and live in the wild"
Maybe because that is impossible, not the same AT ALL, and also illegal af ⁉️ and just overall awful???
And who says it's not me who is the dragon or zombie??
"You would get killed immediately if an apocalypse happened"
Ok yeah? I wanna be a zombie on the outside anyway so? Yeah?? Please???
"You would not survive a dragon" Like i said, what if i AM the dragon lol
And like i said in the other post mentioning this, it's worse coming from other Alterhumans. Like, you're supposed to understand me, why are you saying stuff like this. Or when other Alterhumans deny your identity in the way of "Only i can be that!" The amount of times i saw someone be like "I'm a wolf, and trust me, you would not wanna be a wolf irl" I even saw some folks indicate that they would be or are stronger than you?
"I was a wolf in my past life and it was hard, you'd have to be strong and idk if you are" type ahh comments you know what i mean??
Oh like, i get it, only YOU are allowed to wish you could get your life back, because you are SO special compared to other Alterhumans 😀
It's always the same damn argument, "You'd die" "you would not want that it's awful" "what if you get hurt" "what if you suffer"
Which is funny because, what about this reality? Do people not suffer just because we don't have zombies and werwolves? So many folks including myself have or have had phsyical stuff that made or make it hard to live, why are these users acting like you only suffer physically when you live in a fantasy world 💀?
If anything, a fantasy world would be so much better?? Imagine a world like in HTTYD, ofc there would still be some kind of war, but in itself you're pretty much free from suffering, or if anything it would be EXACTLY like this reality but with dragons you're able to train?? Is that not better?
I'm sorry for the long post but i just can't wrap my head around it 😭
One thing about me is that, almost as soon as I realized I was an angel, I felt incredibly detached from my mortal vessel - and I began mentally separating myself from it completely, but most of all, it made my childhood memories "blurry". Because this body isn't mine, I barely view my kid self as "me", because hy was so unaware of hys divinity. He and I are not the same.
On one hand, my childhood is the only thing I enjoyed about humanity and I wish I could still live as a mortal without feeling so out of place. But on the other hand, I do not want to be ignorant about my real nature (like i was back then) and all I feel towards my younger self is a need to protect him.
And what if I glued multiple pairs of biggg wings to my wheelchair
to me an angel is like. a servant of (a) god. but not just that. something crafted from the god’s very flesh, something ripped out and formed into a live creature. like gods tend to create living things, sure, but an angel is. closer to the god, I think. something divine but not on the same level as one. I’d almost call them demigods, but that has the wrong implications - part god part something else, or that it’s a god at all. angels to me are something unique and divine, not as powerful as a god, and usually chained to one.
Crazy how I'm meant to protect all kinds of creatures and that's probably the reason why I was sent to Earth in the first place, yet humans would label it all as a savior complex
