You Dont Exist To Make People Feel Comfortable.

You Don’t Exist To Make People Feel Comfortable.

Your identity doesn’t exist to make people like you.

You don’t need validation to identify with something.

If that were the case, it wouldn’t be your identity.

Do what makes you happy, what makes you comfortable, what makes sense to you.

The days highlights

- kid at fair had gear(mask), my friend brought theirs so we waved at them and they got VERY excited over meeting other therians

- went TO the fair

- howled out at night

- accidently barked at neighbor

About this wolf

I'm guessing I should probably do a small introduction to myself for this blog, now that I've decided to use tumblr. I'm Chase. I'm an alterhuman educator and someone who is nonhuman myself. I use the labels therian and non-medical lycanthropy, however I am just nonhuman in my own eyes. I am inherently wolf always, even when I have a different species' shift.

In the therian community, I am a polytherian and suntherian. This means, one, that I have several nonhuman identities. Two, I am in a constant state of shift. I am never fully human and never have been. I awakened in 2014, but I have always known I was nonhuman. I have been apart of the therian and alterhuman community on and off since then. I have watched it changed heavily and I have found my place in it as someone who wants to educate.

Now, to get more personal- as you know I'm Chase. I will go by the name Lycan time to time as well (testing that one out on the tracks, I suppose). I'm about to turn twenty-one this October. I'm an artist- I work with many different medias and I enjoy it immensely. I'm majoring in zoology and hope to either work at an accredited zoo or to be a traveling zoologist. I'm transgender FTM and on October fourth it will be two years since I have started testosterone. I hope to get top surgery soon as well. I use he/him pronouns and only those at the moment. I am very proud and open about my transgender identity, especially being in the southern US. I collect vulture-culture items and have a fascination with anything to do with death. I am also a big horror fan, but moreso psychological horror. Take that how you will.

I am very loud and proud about being nonhuman. I do not skirt over questions (they are actually my favorite thing), and I will talk about alterhumanity for far too long. As said, I've been awakened since 2014. I view myself as vaguely wolf-like, always. Imagine seeing a creature on the tree-line. It looks like a wolf but you can't exactly tell what it is. It almost has an uncanny vibe to it. That's how I view myself.

It may be obvious but my main identity is wolf- specifically the Iberian wolf. After that comes domestic dog and African wild dog. I have lesser identities as well, such as lioness, Sumatran tiger, and dragon. I do not experience these identities as much as my canine identities however. I am a psychological therian/nonhuman, besides for my Sumatran tiger identity, which is spiritual.

This blog is for me and for me alone. To talk about whatever alterhuman education, happenings, and more. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I don't bite unless provoked.

Therian/nonhuman stories

This form is going to be used for a book of alterhuman short stories/experiences. Please specify IMMEDIATELY in your response if you do not

Kinda hate the current state of tumblr alter/non humans. I understand not wanting your identity being trivialised, but some of you are spewing the same shit as "tiktok therians" just against differnt members of the community. I am a partially spiritual therian, and every time you guys bring up past lives I lose my MIND. Sorry my beliefs and causes for therianthropy are common among tiktok users, but I don't want to be put down every time I read rant posts. I have vivid dreams of my death, and you are going to say that only dumb little kids experience that. I have heard better, more inclusive opinions on YouTube, by someone who wears masks and does quads. Stop putting down members of the community to try and distance yourself from the " nasty fake tiktok therians". Hating on certain ways of getting species euphoria doesn't make you better. I swear, your problems are made up. I follow some fat quadrobists on yt and stuff, and nobody is hating them or putting them down, only people who would hate them anyway. I follow black therians and nobody hates them for that. People talk about issues with trends that misrepresent therianthropy, people are inclusive to otherkin, people are NICE but you just can't deal with expression. Sorry you can't deal with people in masks and tails doing quadrobics with past lives. Sorry you can't deal with me, and the way I express myself. I get euphoria from doing quads and wearing a tail and mask. I am a spiritual therian with past lives. Stop trying to exclude happiness to feel superior.
