I Hate When People Get Mad When Others Take Naps. Like, Im Literally A Lion And I Need 18 To 20 Hours

I hate when people get mad when others take naps. Like, I’m literally a lion and I need 18 to 20 hours of sleep, let me nap you foolish human!

I really want to tell my best friend about me being a therian, I think ai’m going to do it today. I’m pretty sure they’re accepting but I’m TERRIFIED. They keep making jokes about me being a dog, so I don’t think they’ll be that surprised, but I don’t want this to change anything.

Edit/Update: APPARENTLY THEY ALREADY KNEW?? I mean I’m not super subtle in terms of my very nonhuman actions but they knew! Which means they have been “joking” about me being a dog for months ON PURPOSE!! Oh my stars. Honestly I’m super happy about it, but I want to tackle them.

Reblog if you're not human

Wearing my tail to Theater rehearsal and no one calls me a furry or weird and people just say it looks cool and the species euphoria is amazing

YES!! YES YES YES. This is what I’ve been saying.

Almost all posts I see about having violent or gross instincts as an animal focus on them being intrusive thoughts you're disturbed by, something you're ashamed of and wouldn't actually want to act on.

But for me that's usually not the case at all when it comes to most of it (I guess the only thing I don't like is seeing my relatives' pets as prey sometimes). I'm not disturbed or ashamed by any of my instincts, even if they're "ugly". It's all natural to me. I've always been an animal. In my case I mean it in the physical way too, not just psychological. All of those urges are completely normal to me.

But I still know I shouldn't act on them, even if I really want to. I know I shouldn't attack people, mark territory in unsanitary ways (unless I'm alone in the woods or something.) , hunt animals that I view as prey, eat and roll in roadkill, or do all the other stuff that's unacceptable around humans or would involve hurting someone/something. Do I want to do those things? Yeah. Will I ever do them? No. Because I have self control.

So what I'm trying to say is you're not evil or disgusting or whatever for having unsavory instincts and urges, even if they aren't intrusive thoughts. As long as you know when you should and shouldn't act on them.

I hate when I’m having a bad day, I’m angry at the world, and some prick decided it would be a good time to try me. Or that “friend” thinks its an okay time to start their shit again.

Like, no. I am not your pet, I am not here for your entertainment. Back up. I swear I will tear you to shreds.
