I AM THIS SONG.

Non-therians with a big online presence don't talk about therainthropy without doing research challenge IMPOSSIBLE???

I want to make it painfully clear that I am in no way trying to "cancel" Pukicho and frankly I'm not even that upset with this post. With that being said, I do still feel the need to acknowledge that people outside our community are still painting this picture of us just being "kids just having fun playing pretend." Which is just...so incorrect...so very incorrect.

We don’t have enough disabled therian representation.

It’s true. We don’t. Since the therian community is mainly online, we don’t get a lot of disabled therians. That is mainly because the algorithm pushes mainly quads and masks. It also kinda ties into my last post about the therian community being very quads and gear centered.

Many disabled people (myself included) aren’t able to do quads. And in a world that’s already not made for us, “coming out” as a therian can place unnecessary pressure on us to be able to do quads and wear gear.

I’m gonna be real with y’all, I can’t live my life without being in pain 24/7. I have multiple disabilities and while i’d love to have gear and do quads, my body just doesn’t allow it.

TLDR: even though disabled therians are underrepresented in the therian community, please don’t discount our existence.

Thanks for reading!

I think certain nonverbal and even nonhuman-adjacent shows of affection are just. so much better at conveying what feelings are trying to be gotten across than words do.

Words can be ambiguous in heat of emotion. If I snarl at someone, they get it and back off.

Nothing quite shows affection like pressing up to someone and letting out a hearty purr, or giving them a good nose-nuzzle. Biting them gently as a show that your fangs might be sharp, but you’d never hurt them.

And, of course.. yelping or yowling when someone steps on your paw. Always does the trick.

if you were a loom kid did you grow up into a Kandi kid cuz same

my gender is funky, like I don't feel like there was really anything there when I was born (gender wise), but because I'm also physically not a human, my gender is like a man who doesn't know what a man is and is really trying but is still confused, just trying to fit in but sometimes I find things that make me feel really good about being a man

that's basically what manhood is to me

do you have sensory issues and hate forks? me too!

• this one is always a hit or miss but just use your hands !! now this obviously won't work for everyone, or for every food you eat, but it works for more things than you expect! I personally also do not care if I get messy hands while eating, but I know a lot of people do. almost all snack food I eat with my hands, of something has like bread or lettuce with what I'm eating I'll pick it up with that and eat, etc

• chopsticks !! now I know not everyone knows how to use them or can learn how to use them but they make these things called chopstick helpers, you can get the basic plastic one or ones shaped like animals, then they are basically just an extension of your fingers. once you get used to them it becomes pretty easy to use and quite effective

• something I recently started using is Japanese soup spoons, they have a big handle so easy to old and a bigger "basin" for food and liquid so it doesn't spill as easy as normal spoons. they come in SO MANY designs and colors they also have a BUNCH of like designs and shapes, some have a deeper or more shallow spoon part, different shaped handles, and they aren't super expensive to buy a set of them either

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

• another type of spoon is a spoon from Russia! I am not entirely sure of their origin other than they are functional art pieces, from just an observing point of view they also can serve as the same function as Japanese soup spoons. I've heard a few names for them and I'm not sure which is the correct one so I'll just list what I found :') (khokhloma, lozhka, melchior, cherkassky) these also tend to be on the more pricey side. remember! they are also art and part of a culture, same with Japanese soup spoons

THERIANS AND OTHERKINS ALL OVER THE WORLD!

I'm going to host a THERIAN and OTHERKIN Minecraft server! You will be able to become your theriotypes and play Minecraft with them!

For now, the server is still going under maintenance. I'm adding mods to make sure the majority of therians is included.

I'm also adding some fantastical creatures so that otherkins can join too!

Please share so that when the server is complete, others can play too!

otherkin haters are stupid man.
