do I have your attention? Good.

I’m making a pantheon for divinekins on discord!

What you can expect:

Fun

SAFE, optional worship

Roleplay

A (mostly) discourse free space

A supportive, moderated community

Screenreader friendly (ie, no fonts in names because screenreaders can’t read them)

Disability in general friendly (we will kick you if you are a ableist asshole)

We will not kick if you are inactive because that’s a lowkey shitty thing to do, shit gets busy and energy goes down. We will however check in

What you CANNOT expect:

Radqueers.

Pro contact harmful paras

Pedophiles

Toxic assholes.

T. R. A. S. H.

Bigots.

Trump supporters.

Far right.

Fat shamers.

Basic DNI

is a sci-fi mini web series created by Vultoonz. The series is described as a cartoon with elements of comedy, drama, science fiction, environment, and conservation. It centers around an ornithology theme. The series is being actively developed, with a focus on lore and story.

A deranged, orphaned ornithologist turned eco-terrorist unleashes a fleet of bioengineered Warbirds to wipe out human civilization and restore the planet to nature. Standing in her way: a human-supremacist military commander hell-bent on exterminating anything non-human. 🥼 🪶 🪽

After five years of brainstorming, my heavily illustrated mixed-media novella is finally almost here. It features a unique first-person POV that you won't want to miss. :) Stay tuned!

There's something so special, so calming, about archival work. Something so exciting about finding the history of terms (for example, did you know the earliest record I can find of speciesless is from 2011? Aspecies as a term from 2020), that get so buried and lost. Knowing that no matter how much time has past, those experiences remain.

The alterhuman community doesn't get the same rich background as a lot of other communities do. We don't have poems about wanting to be a bird flying gracefully in the wind dating back to the 1600s. We don't have diary entries of those who saw themselves in the character from Shakespeare's play, in more than a metaphorical sense. Most of our early recorded history, as it stands today, is the late 1900s. The earliest date for *anything* I can find is *potentially* the late 1960s, and confirmed somewhere between 1972 and 1974 (that being the The Elf Queen’s Daughters (EQD), the early part of the otherkin community). Therianthropy's history starts in 1992, though the term didn't come around until 1994 at the latest point. Transspecies dates back to 1994 as well. And that's most of our early history. That's as far back as we can trace most of it, to my knowledge anyways (I could totally be unaware of things).

Still, there's something special about being able to discover where a term started. Making sure a piece of history for a community that lacks so much isn't lost to time. And maybe we don't risk the lost of the history of things like therianthropy and otherkin. But what about aspecies/speciesless? Altervexo/Altervex/Alterspite? Hell even such a wide use term like Endel doesn't have the original coining post saved anywhere from our research (again, it *might* exist somewhere still, but we sure as hell can't find it). These are things that describe folks existence, their experience. In a way that's been put to words to try and describe in the most basic form something that is often near impossible to fully explain the depth of.

I do plan on making the document available to the public at some point. It's still in very early stages so I'm not comfortable sharing it anywhere beyond close friends currently. But my point is, archival is important. We don't get to choose what terms were made. And whether we agree with them or not, they matter. They describe something someone somewhere experiences. And in communities that so often have so much of their history looked over, lost, *erased*. We should strive to save as much of it as we can.

Terms I mentioned, and the origin I referenced. All links have been archived on the wayback machine as of June 2nd, 2025 or earlier, should they break in the future.

tell me if you wanna be removed

reblog for reach

New revalation!!

After a LONG time of denying and excusing my experiences, I have finally accepted defeat in this battle for identity...

I am a Dog and/or Wolf therian.

Most likely a dog though (even if I'd much prefer a wolf). I have so many urges and quirks about me that just SCREAM dog, but I didn't wanna accept it because I wanted to be, forst and foremost, a cat therian (which I still am). But somehow, someway, even though I have never even owned a dog, this new theriotype has the most evidence for it.

I love playing fetch with dad in water

I love howling

I love pets and scratches (this applies to the cat theriotype aswell)

I always have this urge to bite (also linked to the cat theriotype, but this is meant mostly in a viscious wolf-like way)

I always imagine myself as a K9 unit when watching police footage videos/compilations

I sometimes get bursts of energy, especially around my parents

I oftentimes want to "shake" water off after crawling out of a bath or pool

I usually imagine my fangs being much bigger and sharper than that of a normal feline (though since I am a felidae cladotherian, some of the cat species also have big fangs)

I said multiple times that I'd love to have a collar and leash (which can rarely be seen in cats aswell)

I also love the idea of sprawling out on the floor and getting belly rubs (out cats do that too tho)

As you may see, I am still kinda in denial and link a lot of stuff back to my cat theriotype because I just prefer cats, but I now see that despite trying to suppress it, I am... partially... some sort of Wolf/Dog.

More Alterhuman flags with the symbols being I am annoying myself that I didn’t do that >:(
