WTF IS NO KIN, ID, F/O TAGS? PLS. I DON'T GET IT OR HOW IT WORKS AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZZZYYYYYY
IDEK IF IT'S RELEVANT BUT SO MANY POSTS HAVE THIS AND I'M LOSING MY MIND. MY BRAIN GENUINELY SHUTS DOWN WHEN I SEE IT & I HAVEN'T A COHERENT ANSWER UNTIL TODAY.
CONGRATS ON LAUNCHING THIS BLOOOGGGG!! BOOTIFUL LAYOUT, COLOURS & AESTHETICS! I HOPE Y'ALL WELL WITH THIS ONE :D LUV YA MOOT/S (used to be moots with both of y'all but only one now, haha. But y'alls are awesome sauce regardless! Luv ur edits & y'alls energies :p GLHF with the blog!)
HI MOOT! Lemme see if i can summarize it well:
Kin: character you relate and/or see yourself as them, like “[bob] is so relatable and [bob] is just like me”. This is different from IRL’s since you are aware you are not actually them
Id: character you identify as. Pretty sure the term enters on delusional attachments/IRL’s, as in you don’t just relate to them, but believe you are them and have memories of them, like “i am [bob] irl and i believe we are the same person”
F/o: fictional other, a character you yume/riako or in more simple terms, you selfship yourself with or are attached in a romantic or platonic way, like “i am [bob’s] partner”, “i am married to [bob]” or “[bob] is my best friend/family”
(If that’s not obvious [bob] is a placeholder for any character you can think)
I don’t personally have delusions so i kinda suck at explaining the id perspective TwT the terms can get more complex so let’s just go straight to the point:
When people say “no kin, id, me or f/o tags” means they don’t want other people who “share” (either kin or yume this exact same character) interacting with that post, or their blog in general.
This can be for reasons such as attachment, personal comfort or disliking others saying “oh me too!” There’s no problem with that as long as it’s done respectfully and doesn’t justify competition or harassment between others!
I hope i explained it well, and thank you sm :D
