The Most Beautifully Written Part, In My Opinion. A Good Description Of Our Type Of Hivemindedness/telepathy

I think this type of hierarchical thinking is the same reason people look down on angelkind, divinekind and technologically advanced alienkind, because they interpret these identities as an excuse to say "haha I'm better than you!" I'm not your superior bro I'm just chilling

I feel like the reason as to why many therians (mainly on apps such as TikTok) exclude those who identify as animals more strongly, or are fully animals, is because of their inherent belief which is basically "human > animal". From birth, they have been taught that man is above animal, and that reducing oneself to an animal is inherently portraying yourself as less. Many of them, consciously or not, believe that it is an insult to refer to others as animals, and still regain big portions of their humanity—just because, in the end, they believe that animals are lesser in intelligence than man, therefore considering yourself an animal is making oneself lesser than human, therefore inferior. Of course, I do not share that belief. As an animal, I hold the opinion that we are all equal on Earth's soil. It doesn't matter who dominates—as land can't be owned by any being. I wholeheartedly disagree with things like "human superiority" or the belief that "man was meant to rule the Earth". Of course, humans are animals too. However, over the years of evolution, they have separated themselves from the labels of "animals" and "mammals"—because they believed themselves to be above those. And, that brings us to why many therians, young or not, look down on those who identify more strongly as animals, or are completely animals. In the end, they may feel some superiority over those beings, because they think that since they're still human, they are the superior beings. Of course, that is all merely speculation—still, even if their lack of acceptance is due to not being educated on the matter, it still comes down to the belief that other humans have ingrained in them. That "man is superior to animal". It's a belief that has been drilled into the minds of humans for generations, therefore separating them from a connection with animals, and the connection with Earth herself. They subconsciously look down on animals, and those who identify as animals on a deeper level. It's a sad thing, since now many humans are beyond saving—as many have completely turned on mother earth, and are now destroying her.

I do hope that at some point, humanity will open their eyes, and realize that we are all as sacred as the soil—thus proving that "inferiority" and "superiority" doesn't exist in terms of who should be allowed to roam the earth, and who should perish. Of course, humans still remain on top of the food chain, since in the end one thing that is natural is the existence of predators and prey. However, humanity has exploited their own capabilities, turning their role as a natural predator into the role of artificial destroyers, those who barely follow the laws of nature anymore.

Hopefully, those who hold all the control will be eradicated, and humanity will once again reunite with mother Earth. I am happy seeing so many people take actions nowadays, helping the planet to the best of their abilities. It gives me a light of hope.

Please, if you are a human, do go out once in a while. Pick up some trash, and gaze at the sun. Breathe in the air, and realize that as long as you love and care for her, mother Earth will love and care for you as well. On the planet's soil we are all equal.

Homotherium and friend

I saw a post here about how other animals run away from humans because they're big apex predators and not because they're Uniquely Evil Polluters, but it's unreblogable so I'm just gonna vaguepost about it.

Yeah it's definitely true. As a hobbyist nature photographer I can tell you that if you mimic foraging behavior by looking at the ground and moving more naturally and less sneakily, small animals like birds and squirrels will allow you to come closer to them. We are all nature

some art of this odd kitty fella i adopted from _bonetired_ on toyhouse, i love them a bunch

hope your having a lovely day and your kin type affirmed

Thank you kind stranger. I wish you health and success

Greetings, darlings! Here is today’s Daily Divination , courtesy of The Faeries’ Oracle by Brian Froud and Jessica MacBeth! This lovely deck is one I will be using for the BLM event on Discord next weekend (click here for more information about the event)! I am so excited to hear what the Faeries would like you to know~ ❤️

The card that appears today is He of the Fiery Sword. He speaks of the active principle. Spiritual will. Justice. Protection. He’s part of The Singers if the Realms - which are great ones, whose wings span the multiverse in all dimensions. They have many human-given names, but it doesn’t matter to them what we call them - they just hope that we call upon them. They are the Singers of the underlying song of the Universe. To the Faeries, as to us, they are the Great Ones, the ones who show us, humans and faeries both, what we have the potential to become. They also help us to move in that direction and comfort us when we fall off the path.

We can call upon the master of the Fiery Sword when we have difficult things to do, when we need to take action that is going to require much of us, both in will and in compassion.

He can indicate that there is (or there is a need for) clear and focused will and a determination to carry through on decisions, even if much effort is required. Or he can tell us that such will and strength is present in regard to the issues under consideration. We need to consider how he is expressing his will and strength and how the expression may be enhanced or improved. He indicates that this is a time to take action based on clear spiritual will. His presences indicate great strength and great potential for good. It also reminds us that, if we call upon him, we will receive assistance.

Art fight attack on @snippit-crickit ! Titled this "orbital sunrise", after the phenomenon depicted loosely in the background. I love this character and was very excited to see you on AF this year so I had an excuse to draw him!
