i feel like more people would realize they might be xenogender and/or alterhuman if "cringe culture" and the concept of whats "socially acceptable" didnt exist.

because i was talking to someone and they were describing how their behaviors relate to vampires and how connected they feel to them and its like. DUDE.. CMON. OTHERKIN. ITS RIGHT THERE. YOU **ARE** A VAMPIRE.

it took me forEVER to realize im zombiekin, zombiepupkin, plushyzombiepupkin, and sharkpupkin and i literally could not be happier.

(i literally realized im the aformentioned kins like a week ago)

anyway. cringe culture isnt real. societal expectations/standards arent real. we shouldnt let either be defining factors of how we live our lives or how we identify. each person is unique; with their own beautifully unique identity. why should we place limits on identity when its such a beautiful and limitless thing? normalize being yourself and unapologetically expressing your identity because no one deserves any less than that if our identities arent harmful and they make us happy.

Yukio Mishima has been trending this week for uh, reasons. He was a world renowned Japanese author and all of his work is overshadowed by his actions on November 25, 1970. You might not want to read more about this guy because he is horrible and disgusting, but he's utterly fascinating and the movie about him is brilliant.

He's a really interesting character, to the point that he sounds fictional. He's gay, obsessed with ritualistic death, a right wing lunatic, led a private militia that was halfway to a cult, and also was a legitimately great author. His life is covered in the film Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters and it's easily the most beautiful film I've seen in my life. Look at the stills I posted above; every frame of this movie looks like that. It's all just a series of beautiful paintings with people living in them.

The way the film is structured is that it tells the story of his life in three ways. His past is told in black and white flashbacks with static cameras. This is closer to how a movie from the 50's would look like (specifically ones directed by Yasujirō Ozu). The events of three of his books are told with this beautifully stylized look, with sets that look like stage plays. The events of November 25, 1970 is told in an almost normal fashion, with regular colors and competent camerawork. The past is nostalgic, the present is mundane and only in fantasy can you truly come alive.

Through this movie we see the ideology of Mishima coming through. His nationalism, his sexual feelings and his thoughts on beauty and death all come together. Death isn't just a violent and tragic end, it is in itself a beautiful act. Beauty is the only true goal of life and creating beauty brings honor. Growing old and ugly is an act of hate; to die at your peak is to give love back to the world. It is therefore treasonous to live long enough to die peacefully. He pities what heaven must look like now; when men died young and beautiful it was paradise, but now it is filled with old men.

This is an objectively insane way to view the world but it is also fascinating. How much of this was what he believed, and how much of it was just begging for attention? In one instance when asked why he moved to the right politically he said "because the left was full". It was a joke answer, but he clearly wanted to be in the spotlight. His shield society was a paramilitary group dedicated to living a virtuous life of beauty, honor and old ideals. It was also a group of good looking, athletic young men led by a (barely) closeted, conservative gay man. So much of his life could have gone differently but also he was pretty much in control the whole time; he was independently wealthy and revered on the world stage. He could do whatever he wanted, and apparently the way his life went *is* what he wanted.

What's special about Mishima, both in the film and in real life, is that he's a smart and eloquent guy. In films the guy with a crazy worldview is someone like Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver or D-Fens from Falling Down. Travis couldn't understand the alienation and loneliness he felt and he couldn't find any healthy solutions. D-Fens was smart enough but not emotionally strong enough to confront his problems or deal with them maturely. These are people that could benefit greatly from therapy (other examples include Joker from Joker, Rupert Pupkin from the King of Comedy, Frank Murdoch from God Bless America, Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, Tyler Durden from Fight Club and so, so many more).

These are either 20 something year olds that are lost in the world, alienated and lonely, or 40 something year olds with a mid life crisis when they realize that everything has fallen apart. People who don't know where to go, or realize it's too late to change things. Travis Bickle had basically no friends, no family, no charisma with women and a lot of rage and anger. D-Fens lost his job, his self respect and was estranged from his ex-wife and daughter. These are people who's lives are shit at best (Patrick Bateman is a bit of a subversion. He is rich and successful, but his life is completely hollow, his relationships are shallow and he personally is very, very pathetic. I need to write about American Psycho later that film is great too.).

Mishima is different. He's smart enough to understand his issues and how to find help. He's got the money and means to do so. He's famous and rich enough that he could basically get away with anything weird or eccentric so long as it was harmless. On the world stage he was a popular author, and at home he led a life of political activism. If he was unhappy he could easily find healthy ways to fix it. His self destruction was the most avoidable of any of them, yet he's the only one that existed in real life. You expect these people to have serious personality flaws and unfixable (or seemingly unfixable) problems, not to be poetic writers that adhere to healthy living and regularly journal about their emotions, while enjoying respect from their peers and fulfillment in their work.

It's a hell of a film. Paul Schrader has not written or directed anything better (he actually wrote Taxi Driver too, so he had some experience with this type of character before) and it stands out as an incredible experience to watch. Like, Mishima's life is public knowledge and you can probably guess how it went, but I've purposefully not said what happened on November 25, 1970 because I don't want to spoil it. It's an event that actually happened but it's better for you to find out via the film than some wikipedia page.

Miscellaneous Sketches and Further Explanation of Headcanon Below Cut (Heads Up! Slight Blood and Depictions of Semi-Consciousness)

Typed Out Description of my Written Words Verbatim:

Text Box 1 (Above):

"I'd imagine coming out of possession would leave Ford in a LONG state of limpness/grogginess (I wouldn't be surprised if Fidds found him slumped over his workspace, phasing in and out [of consciousness]).

Random Blurb of Text Connected to Text Box 1:

"Like I get the frenzied state, but I'd love to see the state of numbness that comes w/ possession."

Text Box 2 (Bottom):

"In my head, Fidds would probably check on Ford, making sure his heart rate was regular (for lack of better term), and make sure to properly accommodate him after a 'bender' (again, for lack of better term). But take my interpretations with a grain of salt, I have a LOT of lore to catch up with. (Smiley face)."

thinking about making an alterhuman server.......

edit: heres the finished server

[irreverententity]

does anyone else have an an animal kin but an anthropomorphic body? im a german shepard and I have the fangs, the animalistic tendencies/impulses, the ears, and the fur. I see pictures of what my kintype looks like, fully dog form, and I see myself but quadrobics feel unnatural. I feel most like myself when acting with more ‘human’ body movements (like walking on two legs and doing other human anatomy needed things) just still with the above animal physical attributes, but I don’t consider myself to be human.
