He's always so flabbergasted... I think he tends to forget I can do that ♡♡♡

Us 🥺💖

people always have a lot of rude things to say about tumblr users, how we're antisocial or what have you, but don't believe a word of it. i personally have noticed a lot of people on this website are actually deeply involved in their campus greek life and i applaud them!! i don't personally know much about Theta Delta but they seem like a very positive force in students' lives, and very committed to inclusivity <3

"racecar" being a palindrome is so fucked up

aro culture is being in a semi-qpr with your aro best friend. we've talked about it before and the general conclusion is this: were not in a qpr, but were not-not in one either. honestly it just depends on what works best for the bit lol. get weird with it!!!!

yes! get weird with it!

i like the identifier "overhuman/humanmore." i read it and immediately thought of myself. i am a coyote. i am a jackrabbit i am a dragon. but at the end of the day, i still participate in human society and have human goals. i still find importance in my human body and mind even if it's uncomfortable. it's okay to not be "totally" animal; it doesn't make you any less valid or less alterhuman. we are all different in different ways, and that's what i think is so incredible about this community

Beware of the "I wish I was a cat" to "I am not human. This body is not mine, it's just an illusion designed for suffering." Pipeline

coming out of my cage and i been doing just bad. going back in my cage because i like my cage

Being a ranger I spend a lot of time alone in the wilderness for hours in the company of one of four co workers.

One such worker for the purpose of this post we shall refer to as Dave.

Dave is a very quiet man. He confesses that if conversation happens too quickly and for too long he gets tired so we often work in silence. He's very polite and good natured but it's obvious that he would happily live and work alone for the rest of his life given the option.

He's very much in the previous generation of ranger, a practical man in his fourties or fifties happy to be kept physically busy for a day and then be sent home with some pay. I had to show him how to use a work issued smart phone.

Meanwhile the rest of the team is made up of the current generation of rangers; openly nurodivergent queer women in their twenties or thirties who work this job because it's the only setting where we can vaguely look sane.

So Dave sticks out a bit. It's really nice when he opens up though because he's an impulsive individual when left to his own devices and has plenty of stories to tell if the mood takes him. I really like working with Dave.

Anyway, one day we've got a job that takes a three hour hike to get to and early on the topic of deer comes up.

I hadn't realised this was the first time we had discussed deer, but blatantly it was. Dave's entire demeanour changes, there's a bit of passion in his voice, but it's also hushed as if he's talking about something sacred.

"Deer are my favourite animal." He says.

I'm also eager to hear Dave talk about himself, so I encourage him to say more.

"I'd love to be a deer myself."

And more

"If a genie offered me the opportunity to become a deer I'd take it. I wouldn't even stop to ask what the price was."

And more

"Sometimes I feel like I'm a deer having a dream about being a human.*

And there I am, a long time commuter to the therian/otherkin community keeping up the encouraging face of someone being politely interested, knowing that this man is straight up a therian with no frame of reference.

And I decided that I wouldn't push the subject outside of the bounds of what Dave is comfortable with, I wouldn't try to teach him the terms "Therian" or "Otherkin" but absolutely I would talk with this man as if he's a deer.

And it's a bit magical really. He's an impulsive individual so I have to talk him out of some risky choices every so often and "this is why deer like you keep getting stuck in fences" has become this magical phrase that allows him to step down from a mistake with a bit of a smile on his face.
