I Saw A Comment On Tik Tok Asking About How To Know If You Really Kin A Creature That You're Questioning

ive been seeing a ton of people do this so... heres some things i want to do to feel more connected to my kintypes i suppose :)

> longer hair, dye parts of it blue + get an undercut & bleach it white (fictionkin)

> angel fang piercings (i already have naturally sharp teeth but ive wanted these for a while!!)

> top surgery & get rid of my nipples

> get/make gear (tails, ears, wings, etc)

> minoxidil for more body hair growth

> get jewelry of my kintypes (fox/dog/etc)

> get more chokers (to imitate collars)

> wear more green

How many of us are there...........

idk who needs to hear this but having a super negative reaction to someone coming out as therian/otherkin/alterbeing/etc isn't normal, yes, even if they are uninformed.

i saw a post that was like "parents don't accept therians. my dad is super nice and accepting but if i told him i was a therian he'd (literal child abuse)" just so we are clear that isn't normal

my mom wasn't super informed about therianthopy and when i told them they were like "oh. cool! :)" because even when you aren't informed, you can still choose to approach the unknown with compassion.

if your friends and family don't approach your unknowns with compassion, they are not treating you how you deserve to be treated.

you know what? I'm gonna ignore my anxiety and post this

been procrastinating making this but "here goes nothing" as they say for some reason

worried this is obvious, or everyone has been subconsciously meaning what I fear they mean

But, it's true so...

Here's to the otherlinkers

Not just the copinglinkers

But the funlinkers

The aeslinkers

The supportlinkers

The otherlinkers who are in-between those labels

The otherlinkers who feel none of those labels can describe why they link/they link for another reason

To ALL the otherlinkers

It seems like (this could just be me, idk) in a lot positivity posts saying that otherlinkers are valid and no lesser then therians, otherkins and fictionkins, there is a switch between using the term copinglink and otherlink, as if they are synonyms. But they aren't. One is a subset of the other, which includes alot more in it's definition. If you only mean copinglink, and are excluding the rest of us linkers, then say so. And if you aren't, then be a bit more careful on your wording, please. I am losing it slightly with this, my anxious brain can't handle the fact I have no idea over where everyone stands on this, yet I want to know

Otherlinkers are extremely valid and awesome, and are no less then voluntary identities. No matter why they link, only the linker gets to decide if they are any less then, with there link types, just how polykins can have kintypes that are more important to them than others, etc.

Been meaning to say this for a while, but here's a not so gentle reminder that you don't have to be skinny, white and able bodied to be part of the nonhuman community.

Racism and ableism is sadly rampant in this community and I want this blog to be safe for the beings that feel excluded! If you want to, you can interact with this post if you are or your blog is safe for: fat, POC and disabled nonhumans. I wanna show some support, even if it's just a follow or a reblog here and there.

the beauty of online anonymity in the alterhuman community is that i don't know what any of you look like irl, so when i read your posts and picture you speaking them aloud, i imagine that a wolf, or a crow, or a dragon, or whatever creature you may be, is the one speaking
