Hello!! Second post about this, sorry!!(PLEASE REBLOG !!!!)
Im "writing" a book called "The Alterbeing Experience"
My goal is to finish this and have it published by 2026~2027 !!
This book is meant to encapsulate the experiences/stories/poems etc of alterbeings/otherkin all around!
The book will be published, edited and formatted etc by me!
The cover art will also be by me,
However this book is largely submission based, as i want to show the experiences of many. Ideally 150 things.
So far we have 12 submissions.
If you'd like to submit please read this!
THIS BOOK WILL BE PUBLISHED. YOU MUST BE OKAY WITH YOUR EXPIRENCE/POEMS/ETC BEING SHARED TO THE PUBLIC EYE.
I will gain no monetary value from this, i do not want to gain money at all.
Any money needed to advance this i will fundraise/make myself!
You can choose, if you are over 18, to state your name-state/city/country. Only if you 18+, i will not allow minors to post their name or location in anyway to public eye.
Thank you!
REBLOGS APPRECIATED, THANK YOU SO MUCH ā¼ļøš«¶š«¶š«¶
reminder that's okay to not have theriotype's animalistic behaviours and just identifying as certain animal because it feels right and feels like real you. It's okay because, how are you supposed to behave like your species, little creature, when nobody taught you to? Animals in the wild are learning from their parents and surroundings, not just from being one. We were raised by humans, taught human behaviour even if we aren't one.
little creature, maybe your instincts are deep inside of you because of your own safety? little creature, your identity is valid because it's you
I have to admit. I like the "therian masks".
I like it as a trend on tiktok, esspecially for younger alterhumans.
BECAUSE IT CONSEALS THEIR IDENTITY.
Way too often before the trend i would see little kids plastering their face online. Announcing their age. Basically posting their location.
I knew people who got hurt from it.
Is it annoying that people think it's a "requirement" for therianthropy? Yeah.
But at least it's serving a better purpose of safety with an added benefit of species euphoria.
Hihihi!! Could I have some tips for a tv kin pls?? Ty and have a nice day c:
tips for a tv
pt: tips for a tv end pt
make a tvhead! there are tons of tutorials on youtube!!
get an old tv, or collect them!! they may not work but they're super neat to keep around!
use technology/tv/etc themed neopronouns!

if youāre an older tv, wrap some wire around a headband to make some antenna gear!
wear lots of clunky or boxy/ square shaped clothing!
try doing some pixely/square/tech themed makeup!
watch some of your favourite shows or movies!
wear something holographic to look like tv static!

Sometimes, The way you experience alterhumanity can be explained by what you see when you look in a mirror
(I had this thought at 2am, does this make sense??)
tiktok is actually killing me
i posted a video about wanting some weird ass gear (muzzle + literal dog food) and the whole point of the video was poking fun at me being strange about what i wanted and.
there are so many comments like "um i'm a therian but this is weird :/" or "i'm a therian but like i'm NORMAL" or "i'm a therian but i don't actually think im an animal lmfao"
OHBMY GOD AHUT UP IM GOING TO START HITTING PEOPLE WITH HAMMERS. like. OH MY GOD.
i'm actually gonna TWEAK i genuinely cannot do this anymore any time someone posts about therianthropy and they're not wearing a mask or doing quadrobics or something aesthetically pleasing that doesn't imply they actually identify as an animal kintok throws them into oncoming traffic

pro tip its legal to make a den in your room out of blankets and pillows and plushies and sleep in it
it also costs zero dollars to hide in the darkness of your newly built den and make unsettling noises to ward off intruders
Sorry for the off-topic posts recently guys ā¦ trying to get on track soon!
Until then, my requests are still open! I can do moodboards, find playlists, make helpkits, give names / titles / pronouns, make themed outfits .. and probably more! Donāt be afraid to ask !! :D
OKAY guys i am embracing the warrior cats phase. this will probably be the last time i talk about it just cause i dont want it clogging up this blog (unless you want to hear me yap about it) ā¦ now i just have to figure out what to name the clan
Theriantok is very heavily centered around ableism and fatphobia. Transphobia and racism too but thats a conversation for a different time.
Much of theriantok is based around quadrobics and masks, not that this is a bad thing by itself! But it leaves open little room for people trying to spread information!
The algorithm pushes out people with pretty scenery, good quality, a nice mask, skinny body and very good quads.
This leads younger therians, (who are oft3n actually otherhearted) to only see that side! Only seeing past lives and connections, only seeing skinny bodies doing perfect quads with very palatable feelings.
Animal urges are demonized, doing messy quads is ugly.
Being fat gets you nowhere, your just cringe.
If your delusional in any way they hate you, and say your promoting delusions.
You must be sane, you must be skinny, you must be pretty.
I hate this culture on tiktok, i want to SEE my fellow freaks and creatures, animals who arent fully sane and their therianthropy stems from delusion. Animals who run around in the mud and growl at strangers.
I want animals like me.
No little therian don't post your age online!!!! Don't even put your grade or what level of school you're at!!! It's not worth it!!! Little therian!!!!
just redownloaded clangen onto my computer. what have i become.
I hate hate hate how our community recieves so much hate form outsiders. For a while now I've been wondering about telling my roomate about my winged cat identity. Not just because I wanted her to understand, but mostly because if I have shifts it isn't weird. But a couple weeks ago my friends and I were eating and for some reason therians came up. I felt like my ears perked up, my tail wagging, my claws flexing. I sat there completely ready to mentioning lightly that I'm a winged cat.
But my heart immediatly dropped, because they only see us as "crazy kids that need therapy and are delusional". I was devastated. Because I thought they would understand, but they are just the same as everybody else. They are good friends, but they would ever understand. No human would
Friendly reminder that fat therians are literally so cool and awesome and valid, and being fat doesn't make you less wild, less free, less animal, etc.!
This goes triply so for fat therians who can't do stuff that's "expected" of therians these days, like quadrobics.
Look, I spent most of my teen years feeling like my body size invalidated my nonhuman identity, and it both sucks and is NOT TRUE AT ALL. I know it's hard when human society pushes fatphobia so much, but try to see past that if you can. Healing starts with recognising that society is wrong and that fatness is natural and beautiful. <3
And for non-fat therians: remember to try and be welcoming and considerate to therians of all body sizes! c:
