I JUST SAW A THERIAN OUT IN PUBLIC?????

Okay so my school has this cafe nearby that during the school year I’d frequently go to study and work on stuff. I went for the first time during summer break today with my mom for a nice outing and while we were checking out I noticed that the barista (who was wearing short sleeves today instead of the average long sleeves) had a tattoo on his upper arm that was half covered up by his shirt. A tattoo of the theta delta, but I was thinking “heyyy maybe I’m wrong, but couldn’t hurt to ask” so when my mom walked off to sit her bag down I asked “Is that a theta delta?” And this dude’s face LIT UP. So my mom was walking back so I just hurriedly went “Me too me too! Wolfdog.” And he replied “Grizzly!”

So in short: the barista at the cafe I got o everyday is a grizzly bear. I love my life.

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

Realizing that it's not a "normal" thing to visualize your animal self tearing into a dead carcass when you having BBQ ribs for dinner

tumblr therians who hate tiktok !!!!!

i dislike tiktok . it's weird and i think any platform with short form content is bound to piss people off

however, i personally would like to say a few things !!!!! no that u have to hear me out lol

ALSO PSA THIS IS MOSTLY ABOUT YOUNGER THERIANS (like under 16)

anyway plsss keep in mind :

therians on tiktok are 80% children (from like 8-14) (have you ever seen a child talk about something important to them? they scramble their words and make it very self centric!! they do not quite understand social media, information gathering, communities and safe spaces like us older people do) (my foster sister is 11 year old is a therian and she's still figuring out how to work with it) (also their whole lives have been spent living as human, unlike some of us older creatures who have had therianthropy under our belt for years)

i've also deleted tiktok! but instead, i literally watch those silly therian tiktok compilation videos on youtube. they're usually hand picked and recent! avoid the drama and watch fun little videos online !!!

also please remember some therians can be more connected to their humanity than you could be ! sure, they shouldn't claim every therian "is human", but if they're a child, children seem to apply "if this is my experience, then it's everyone's experience duhhh". if they're older with a bunch of experience in the community then go ahead n sick'em i condone that LOL

OKAY RANT OVER

sorry no one is gonna read this lol

i think we need to teach our tiny creatures before being like "RAWR U DONT EVEN KNOW HOW IT WORKS !!!!" they r little puppies guys

Therian joy is such a beautiful thing, I know people can be awful about us but please don’t let that stop you from experiencing the joy of being yourself

buggiez yay :D🪲🐛🐞

buggie stimboard while u guys wait for me to be out of school

[bearfools]

i fully support therian kids, yes even the ones who are like 9 and younger.

no i dont think they should be on the internet making videos (for safety reasons) but i dont think theres anything wrong with identifying with therianthropy at that age

i was always a therian. i didnt know what the label was until i was 17 but as a kid id always known i was a bear. i used to get told to "stop eating like an animal" and wrinkle my nose up in a snarl and bare my teeth. Or id be told to stop running around on all fours because id hurt myself, i was told to act "normal"

ive been like this as long as i remember. So why would i ever deny someone else the right to be themselves?

[forest-essence335]

I have a very chubby and hairy body, and while usually ppl will say they don’t like that about themselfs, especially ppl my age, I just look at my body and go,

“hehe im a big bear :]” and then my therian side gets all happy :3

*sitting on the bus*

nobody here knows that there is a black bear on the bus. there is a black bear. on the bus. it is listening to music and nobody knows that it is there.

‘Blaming’ everything on my kintypes because it makes me feel better;

Difficulty getting out of bed in the mornings recently? Yeah, this bear is supposed to be hibernating

Constantly having to sweep up hair that i loose? Yeah, this dog is just shedding his coat

Dry flaky skin because of the cold? Crocodile scales…

Getting defensive of my interests? I’m a wolf, thats like my territory

Showing clear symptoms of being creature…

I generally encourage everyone to recycle and therians are no exception.

It is a beautiful experience to make something new out of what you already have. Cardboard, cans, soda tabs, plastic, boring and/or damaged clothes.

General tip: You can mix laundry softener and acrylic paint to make fabric paint. It may fade over several washes, but the paint keeps very well if placed in a container in the fridge.

I am starting a youtube channel called UrsaCanid where I will be giving tutorials on some of this list as well as video essays about therianthropy and hopefully therian interviews down the line.

Here are some ideas for ways to create joy out of junk:

1. Masks. Thin cadboard like from cereal boxes are perfect for masks and BirdyDogs has youtube tutorial on both feline and canine cardboard masks.

2. T-shirt yarn tails. Look up how to make t-shirt yarn and keep the strad thin. Then follow the typical yarn tail instructions minus brushing it out.

3. Claws. This can be made of either just cardboard or cardboard and metal from a soda can. Either method uses a good bit of hot glue. It is difficult to explain over text, but generally you make a ring out of cardboard for each of your fingers (marking which one is which) then you form the claw with your chosen other material. You then apply it and build it up with hotglue. Fingernail polish works really well for coloring them afterward. I will have a tutorial for this up soon.

4. Make your own kin plush out of t-shirt material and put something important or meaningful inside like at build a bear. You can then paint it or sew on buttons or random trinkets.

5. Paint. Your. Clothes.

6. Collect tiny junk like soda tabs, bread clasps, bottle caps, etc and make jewlery or a sensory jar. This is a particularly scavenger aimed activity.

7. Put packaging that has your theriotype on it up as wall decorations. If it's plastic, sew it onto stuff like a patch.

8. Be resourceful. Nothing, and i mean NOTHING, has only one purpose.

Sploot wide, kick hide, take pride
