>>> I’ve seen quite a lot of tips for therians and otherkins online, but I don’t actually see a lot of advice towards robotkins. So here’s a list of some stuff I think can help if you want to feel more connected to robots or just feel more comfy in general. :)
>>> [DISCLAIMER!!] These tips are NOT a must and are only suggestions! You do not need to follow a specific standard to be considered valid in your identity and self. Your identity is what’s in your core and you should only do what feels right. <3
>>> It is also important to note that you shouldn’t cut yourself off from real needs or feel like you have to “detach” from humanity to be who you are. Remember to stay safe and healthy! [+]
>>> Personalise your surroundings! Maybe put some cool LED’s in your room, surround yourself with pieces of tech and little gadgets, maybe keep your items sleek and organised according to your algorithm, get some wires to hang around.. it’s your preferences. Get yourself comfortable.
>>> Decorate yourself! Don’t be afraid to get creative. Wear some metallic chains / jewellery, put that USB stick on a necklace, maybe find some little pins or hairclips that are computer / robotic themed, gloves and rings can feel nice too. If you’re rich, you could even get a hollowed out CRT to wear as a mask, or buy one of those cool robotic masks or some other pretty techy things you can find.
>>> Find media online that resonates with you! Games (e.g Ultrakill, Portal, Machinarium etc…) or movies (e.g Electric Dreams, 2001 A Space Oddesey, etc…) with robotic characters/themes, gifs or videos of robotic parts and machinery, cool robot character designs.. you name it. It can feel nice to observe what you relate to.
>>> This one is based purely on personal choice and will be unique to everyone, but if you want to, don’t be afraid to refer to yourself with robotic language / pronouns. Calling yourself something like a “unit”, giving yourself a robotic name or nickname, using pronouns like it/itself or other neopronouns etc that you feel close with, using words like “recharging” and “overclocked” etc to describe your emotional states. You could even do what I’m doing and use computer-like fonts and characters in your messages! Do what feels most like you.
>>> Take part in creation! This could involve making robotic OCs / designs, write about the way you feel, draw out how your body or system feels.. maybe you could even go as far as to create something like a cyberdeck, or play around with something simple like a microbit!
>>> That’s all from me for now. If you have anymore tips, feel free to add onto this list. Don’t let anybody make you feel ashamed for who you are, embrace what’s in your heart 💚
