#day in the life of a therian

[c4fin4t3d-f1sh]

Day in the Life of Me... A Therian who has Given up on Caring. (But isn't a freak about it :])

Before school: I put on my tail on my back belt loop because fuck school bullies.

Period... TEST: We had state testing, womp womp. Had to write an essay about building a town monument. Nothing exciting.

Period 1 ELA: We literally had a test break the entire period. I ate salsa chips and kinda just scrolled on Pinterest.

Period 4 Science: Our school day was out of order because of testing lol. We got our rats which we have to dissect tomorrow. I was the only one super happy (I'm a taxidermy enthusiast) and named my rat Timothy. One kid barked at me, I don't really care.

Lunch: My friends started making fun of me and calling me a furry and screaming skibidi toilet shit at me.... I ate a PB&J, strawberries, lettuce, and a granola bar.

Period 2 ELA: We were reading for debate and just doing research.

Period 3 History: We learned about the temples in San Bartolo and about H. Hurst, who was the lady who started the San Bartolo excavation groups.

Period 6 Math: We played this weird game called Rollo, and also played a jeopardy about completely unrelated stuff. Pretty fun class today ngl.

Period 7 Studio Art: Just worked on my clay tic-tac-toe board. Made some of the custom pieces in the shapes of crescent moons.

Period 8 PE (This is where it gets funny): We didn't have to change today and had free choice (luckily) but two girls started barking at me and took pictures of me while I was turned around, which kinda ticked me off? I don't know, didn't matter for long. We had to at least run a lap, so everyone ran off to the track and some girls we're whispering about me behind my back then started barking and awoo-ing at me, which I quietly refrained myself from asking if they needed a treat. The rest of class was pretty chill except some kids tried throwing balls and frisbees at my head.

Well, that's my daily life as a therian. I don't do anything weird, I don't walk around on all fours, I don't shit in litter boxes (or the school bathrooms tbh). What a shocker.

Dang, being nonhuman really is just like being trans, where I look back at my life and go, "Ohhhhhhhh, so THAT'S where it came from." It's easy for me to fall into the habit of thinking, "Well I just found this new label but I don't want it to infiltrate my whole life." But... it already has. All those moments pretending to be a cat on the playground, making fake "dog packs" with my friends, wrestling with my dog and laying next to her as if I was just another pup, attaching to my dog and cat stuffed animals, making dog-like noises to supplement my words, pretending I had (and still have) a tail to wag when I wanted, shaking out my "fur" and huffing just because I "liked mimicking my dog"—those were all my nonhumanity shining through. Me identifying with the nonhuman/therian label isn't an outliner, it's just the trend.

dog boy date: going to the park together and getting distracted and excited mid sentence whenever you see a squirrel (there are many squirrels in the park)

as a dragon, i'm a hoarder, am i right?

well, i don't really have money to spend on trinkets, buuut i tend to keep every small thing i find and like, for example pretty wrappings, crops of trees, rocks, pieces of machines, and i am always fooling myself with "oh but i'll use this later for a project, this gonna look so good in my srcapbook". no it of course won't, cause i'll keep it in a safe place and sometimes look at it with pride, like heck i don't even use up the stickers i have because i just LOVE SO MUCH having them.

but like, me and my girlfriend prefer our place tidy; so they brought me a "sorry trash can" to place there my treasure that is questionable to keep. the trash can is reviewed every 30 days, so i have time to decide if i need that item to be part of my hoard or not. so i guess, lifehack achieved–

(plus i don't know if anyone else is doing this or not, but my hoard is absolutely hyper arranged; i even have a group of things for gifting away if needed. like if a knight walked in my cave, i'd have an offering to give them so to make friends with them!!)

Happy International Wolf Day!

i genuinely believe that anybody who hates on or just generally hates gacha kids shouldnt be allowed to speak until they go head to head with one of them to make a gacha video. especially a full length song. hell i'll do it, i havent made a proper gacha video in like a year and i could still do a video smoother than your face.

there are bad people in every community. why is it that one of the ones that is most hated on for that is majority preteen girls? and kids?

seriously guys get your head out your ass and let kids have interests. and if thats hard, i want you to make a gacha video. i want you to make it smooth, atleast 10 seconds, and with a character you made. with audio and captions. that's how you get your ticket to hate Ɛ>

Unhinged 30 Days of Otherkin Challenge

Day 5. Do you like sticks?

Aether does, like with moss. We all like playing with them, but Aether would eat them without hesitation if this body let us do anything we wanted. Personally I would like nibbling on them, like with a bone but vegan.

Not a collar proper but as a stand in that was just laying around, its nice to finally find one. Feels very very nice!

*Slams my fists down on the table*THEY BELIEVE IN CONSISTENCY!!!!!!!

[biohazard-inevitable]

What I see when I wake on the other Side

With my bones too large for my body

My skin too taught

My flesh will rot

And I forever reach for something I’m not

My dreams are filled with terror and dread

I scream within how I

“Wish for Death”

And wake knowing I dont.

The shadows I see stretch across the floor

I search and I search forevermore

Until I tuck against myself and see

Yet another version looking back at me

His face so long

His bones so white

Moss clings to him and his eyes shed light

He stares at me through a curious tilt

His tongue snakes out and words are hissed

“You are me and I am you

Fear not, for I am what awaits beyond

I am everything and nothing and whatever inbetween

I’m exactly what you want but never what you need

I am time and space and endless breath

I am you you’re me

We are endless death”

His fur is an inky curtian

His spines jutt out across his back

His neck snaps and creaks and wails at me

He reaches down, claws spread out

He picks me up and pats me down

“Your sun has yet to set

Your dusk to come

Live on and rot

So you return to sand”

He is I and I am him

Our flesh is different

Yet our minds are Kin

Also here's the fit for my first day of summer classes! If you think this is my usual style, nope, I will be back in my hawaiian shirts by tomorrow, but I've gotta keep the people on their toes!

They say to never trust how you feel about your life after 9PM but it's always before 9PM somewhere. Anyway I think I might be a therian

[werebeastbones]

was wearing my therian gear out yesterday and had to walk past a large group of people and when I did I heard the kids/teens excitedly go "look! Its a dog! Arf arf!" And the way I had to contain my excitement to not bark back and go "yes!! yes I am thank you!!" Im in TEARS

Winter brings with it the lupine urge to fling myself into a snowdrift and play. And then the realization that I don't have fur anymore hits and yeah. No rolling in snowdrifts. Spring is now bringing with it the lupine urge to just drop whatever shit I'm carrying, flop to the ground, and roll around in the grass. I swear to god, my wolf instincts consist of "I can eat that raw, right?" and "I'm upset, time to howl" and "roll in the snow/grass/sand/whatever" and nothing actually remotely useful.
