Does Anyone Else Really Like To Wear Headphones / Noise Cancellers? I’ve Found That I Always Wear My

Anyone else grew up in an overly religious household that disallowed you from playing pretend in certain ways? For example, I was not allowed to pretend I have magical powers.

Also, being banned from saying normal words? I could not say I hated something. "Hate" was treated as a curse word and I still struggle to this day with saying stuff like "I hate scratchy socks" without feeling like a bad person somehow.

Another thing: thinking it's okay if you slack off in class because your parents say you're all going to heaven this year anyway (the rapture). It's crazy thinking about how fucking normal such a terrifying statement was to hear. "But will God let me bring my teddybear?" "You won't need him."

So many innocuous things were treated as satanic. Anything referencing magic was automatically evil (unless the creator was a 'professing christian' aka lotr, narnia) which meant everything from D&D to Lucky Charms were banned.

Such made me very afraid of things like demonic possession, not reaching adulthood before the rapture, getting in trouble for having friends who like Harry Potter, my brother going to Hell, some random new rule being pulled from the bible, etc etc.

definitely feeling like a ball python lately. I just want to curl up in a ball and hide away from the world.

If I created a discord server for alterhumans, one that is very inclusive of transspecies identities, IRLs, clinical zoanthropes, physical identifying nonhumans, etc etc; would anyone be interested? I've noticed a severe lack of alterhuman/nonhuman spaces on discord that tends to exclude the aforementioned beings - they tend to only focus on therianopathy (which isnt a bad thing) it'd also be 15+

gotta love the perpetual "BUT WE KNOW WE'RE PHYSICALLY HUMAN!!!!" from the therian community. You know, instead of just saying "..identifying as an animal to varying degrees".

Gotta love it. Have fun making yourself pallatable to humans who see no distinction between us either way i guess./s

A quick reminder: your nonhuman experiences are your own. They don't have to be 'cute' or 'fun' or 'aesthetic' and don't feel weird if your nonhuman behaviours aren't like the average experiance.

There is no average nonhuman experience, don't think too much about how others perceive your behaviours because it's no one else's business.

People with ADHD be like:

I hope any endels, holotheres, clinical lycanthropes, or any other physically identifying nonhuman reading this has a very good day

Hiya :) you're valid if you still partially identify as human. You can like drinking a perfect coffee while also like running free through an open field. Human things are enjoyable just as animal things are enjoyable! :)

Made a meme about my experience with autism, and it seemed to resonate with people on Reddit so... here ya go.

its so weird being angelkin and wolfkin bc on one hand im like "release me from this flesh prison, you foolish mortals aren't worthy of my Holiness" and on the other hand im like "grrr awoooo!!! woof grr :3"
