being a canine is a spectrum
edit: the post this was inspired by
I'm not going to lie, I've been kinsidering kining Shadow Milk Cookie from Crk (Cookie run kingdom). For literally 4 months, but this month has been kind of constant of thinking about it - cause in some way it feels like me?
This happens too many times 😭
I've had a temporary one of a horse and sheep - but I don't believe they're official 💀.
polytherian culture is trying to figure out if the thing you're looking at is a newly discovered theriotype or just a temporary flicker

I just noticed that whenever I laugh, I kinda sound like a fox. And that makes me so euphoric :]
Somedays, I love being human. Sometimes, I have visceral hatred for being human.
Sometimes, I think maybe I could've been born in another universe where it was possible.
Figured out that I am a dhole, not a fox - I haven't felt a connection to being a fox. I did feel once in the very beginning, but it didn't feel accurate. The connections I had I felt them fade extraordinarily fast, which actually scared me.
This is actually me.
"You don't seem like you'd be a coyote-"
Identities are much more than surface level appearances and behaviour, and no one has to "look" or "seem" like one of their kin/kith types.
Animals, mythical beings, fictional characters, etc etc, can have different personalities and traits that make them unique.
A lion doesn't have to be strong and courageous. A dragon doesn't have to be big and powerful. A rabbit doesn't have to be meek and fragile.
How we experience our alterhumanity and nonhumanity is unique, and it's not solely dictated by what we are and who we identify as.
Just because I don't "seem" like I'd be a coyote doesn't mean I'm not one.
