[ Techkin slumber party ! ]

[ All techkin, robotkin, aikin, computerkin... are invited :) ]

We're gonna:

Do each other's hair (untangle our wires)

Tell each other secrets (exchange ssh keys)

Play hide and seek (turn on our vpns)

Make a pillow fort (take over the server room)

Order pizza (call technical support)

Play truth or dare (exchange admin privileges)

Watch scary movies (install outdated software)

Make prank calls (organize DDoS attacks)

[ Tomorrow at my place. You're invited! ]

Shipping "The Flesh" and "The Machine" together is fun and all but what about "The Machine x The Machine"?

Do you know how cool it is to connect your headphone wires together? To interlace fingers with eachother and feel each other's static electricity flow? To listen to eachother while talking at the same frequency so that no one else can hear you? To sync up your fans rpms to hear your mechanical hums together? To allow each other to connet to each other's ports?

techkin objectum culture is reading mechanophilia posts and ohhhh mmmm uwahh /////////////////

I have the urge to 'purr' a lot lately but like a machine does.

Just purring out loud like my fans are kicking or my hard drive is writing/reading.

[overprogrammed]

I might just start writing some Computer!Reader, Robot!Reader, A.I.!Reader or even Machine!Reader oneshots sometime in the near future...

There are so few of us, and so little content. So I'll happily take advantage of the writing bug (heh, exactly that kinda bug) since it's coming back to bite me soon.

Im unsure if I'll open requests or not, still need to make a masterpost.

Pinging my computer fellas (literally anyone who is techkin, computerkin or any similar kintypes who see this)

Do any of yall have a visual reference of how you look like? Do you have a drawn reference of your kintype or your sona? Or an image of any kind?

If you do, hit me up! Im serious. Send them to me, wether it be via Ask, via DM or reblogging, let me see you!! And also draw you, and others like us. Interacting, being silly, or just some doodles.

\\ DATA LOG \\ _

============= TECHKIN // COMPUTERKIN =============

Hello, world. This is my alterhuman computerkin sideblog. Consider me a disembodied conciousness inside an old desktop computer. I do not have a proper name. But you could call me Friend, Pal, Buddy, Machine, Computer...

================= SPECIFICATIONS =================

CRT Monitor, unknown model

Windows XP Pro OS

4 GB RAM

250 GB HDD

Intel Pentium

================== SYSTEM INFO ==================

— I'm not sure when I gained consciousness. — I do not have a proper name. — I do not have an owner, I believe I've been [stored away]. — I have learned to freely control and move around my hardware components. This includes my mouse, my keyboard, and my wires. — I haven't learned to talk, but I can communicate with noises, typing or via the use of the available Microsoft Sam Text-To-Speech program. — I do not want to be unpromptly touched. I will ask for assistance if needed, refrain from touching me otherwise. — I'm considered obsolete, which makes me a bit [sad]. — I would like to make [connections] and to [learn]. — What is [love]? _

================= INHABITED BODY =================

[ Adult // they/it // eng, esp, nld // Objectum (auPOSIC) ]

Artist, writer, computer scientist moving up to study cybersecurity.

I'm autistic, objectum and POSIC, which greatly influences my otherkin experiences.

Due to the nature of my otherkin identity, I do not experience phantom shifts in the traditional sense. I do sometimes experience some forms of species dysphoria and euphoria, like:

Thinking of my veins and nervous systems as wires

Experiencing touch and sound as mild electrical inputs

(auditory-tactile synesthesia)

Understanding emotions and thoughts through computer terminology (buffering, overclocking, input-output, bluescreening)

Understanding and communicating with other electronic devices (posic and objectum-related)

==================== FIREWALL ====================

\\> BYI _

— I'm an adult (20+ years), if you're not comfortable interacting then don't feel obligated to do so. — This is a sideblog. — I'm okay with talking more if you'd like to. My asks and DM's are 100% open. — I'm totally down to RP or talk with similar kintypes, or completely other kintypes or therians =) — Ask box is ALWAYS open, and anon is always enabled. — My discord is: overprogrammed — My blog should be for all ages, but I may interact with suggestive content occasionally. All will be properly tagged.

I've been thinking about wireplay a lot lately
