Some activities that help me feel connected to my kintypes:
Light entity
- singing
- dancing (music plays a major role for my species)
- swimming (because it feels like flying/levitating)
- swinging on a swingset (same reason as swimming)
- meditating
- yoga and other exercises that improve flexibility (that's the closest you can get to shapeshifting with the human body)
Cat
- playing and hanging out with my cat
- climbing/bouldering
- doing obstacle courses (you can make one at home with various household objects)
- eating messily and licking my plate afterwards
- roaming outside at night (make sure to do this in a safe area and/or with people you trust)
- doing nature photography (because it feels like you're hunting an animal without actually killing it)
Obviously I am quite an energetic and active person, so these activities won't be suitable for everyone, but I hope that someone finds this post to be of help. I might add other stuff later on
Rider In The Desert Sun by Aunt Cynthia's Cabin is the fourth track off the album Misty Women released 18 February 2020. This is psychedelic hard rock instrumental track.
I must admit that I am a bit jealous of starseeds due to their sheer numbers. You are guaranteed to find at least one starseed in every larger spirituality-/psychedelia-related space, meanwhile the alienkin community is but a tiny fraction of the larger alterhuman community which is pretty much exclusive to the internet.
I'm getting a bit desperate to find new hive-mates, but the starseed community is also rife with antisemitism and I don't want to hang out with people who think I harvest children's souls
I am saying this as someone with crippling social anxiety... I don't think they mean it out of active malice most of the time. They're just clueless and don't know how to react. They're not not the masters of social interaction they're made out to be, no one is! We're all just bumbling clowns on a circus planet
Neurotypical people have a secret, special way of saying "...okay." that saps all the joy from your body and makes you feel like an idiot, and they love to use it when you show them something you're really, really excited about
Life of a cat in the other side
Some creatures might bite me for saying this, but I think that us having human bodies is cool, actually, because it allows a lot of different species to have common ground and interact peacefully when they would otherwise have to fight for survival, eat each other, drive each other to madness, etc.
So the "every species is sentient" dilemma isn't as bad in this case as it would be if, say, humans existed along with sentient bio-tapeworms or sentient bio-wolves existed along with sentient bio-deer. And by this I mean human-like sentience, since I believe that most species are already sentient to some degree
Otherkinity and therianthropy make a lot of otherwise hypothetical moral dilemmas a lot more real, such as "what if every single species on earth was sentient and sapient" and "what if fictional characters could see what kind of art people share of them on the internet"
