It's so sad that there are very few places anyone can go that provide that perfect secret little hideaway somewhere in th woods. Everything is someones property, public parks that are just grass, or housing developments now. I just want to be able to take a short walk from my house to some (not even that deep) woods and find a cool tree and make it my hang out spot and to walk along the naturally forming paths from other people and animals taking time to actually enjoy nature.
You cannot spend your whole life attempting to appeal to people who dislike you. You do not need to make your identity palatable for those who refuse to understand.
There is nothing wrong with believing you are actually an animal. If others say you are crazy or delusional for that, then so be it. Their opinions do not matter.
Just because they want to contort themselves to fit into the ideals of anti-kin doesn't mean the rest of us have to.
And if you think I'm crazy for believing I am "actually" a coyote? Take it up with someone who gives a shit.
I need some nonhuman friends 😭
I wanna bark at you for hours, I want you to pet my head, I want to nudge you and bite your arm affectionately
I want to switch and give you pets, I want you to make your animal sounds, I want you to nudge me
I just wish we could be animals again </3
╺⃝⃤ Welcome!
My name’s Five! I use any pronouns, but my main ones are it/its.
This is my blog for pretty much anything. I basically just fire my brain into this space and see what happens. Mainly this will be for my nonhuman stuff, mental health, and pets.
FUN FACTS
I’m physically nonhuman. I am a changeling in the form of a snake, a deity/angel, and a wolpertinger.
I have schizoaffective disorder (bipolar), ADHD, and DID.
I’m aroace.
I have three pet rats <3
I’m an adult (19), but this blog is completely sfw, so minors are free to interact.
Zoophiles, pedophiles, homophobes, transphobes, racists, ableists, etc. do not interact.
Totally get this, I constantly shift into species dwelling in tropical regions like why??? There are snakes in my area that I could be, and then I wouldn’t feel so out of place in my environment.
It's one of the "why can't i be a snowshoe, brown, arctic or mountain hare why do i have to be a physical jackrabbit? Why of all things must i be the lagomorph that feels so alien in my own birthplace's climate and environment" days.
Get me out of here it feels like biological species edging with being so close to those hares and yet so far. Worse yet i have not been able to physiclaly morph into another lagomorph so far at least, making the whole ordeal worse
relationships are so weird sometimes cause like, my friends were discussing how girls are hot and im just over here like “anyone wanna hear me recite stay calm from memory?”
(kitten-of-bast) Hi I am booping ur snake snoot with a single large toebean

I really relate to the eating quickly thing. I don’t understand social meals. I eat fast and then eating time is over and it’s time to go. Humans make eating into a social event instead and spend long portions of time talking instead of accomplishing the task at hand as I see it. I think some other animals have social meals as well. I doubt it’s an exclusively human thing, but it’s not something my species does and so I find it very odd.
I also have to remember to chew my food since I forget I’m not supposed to swallow food whole.
I tend to forget to eat until food is actually in front of me at which point I must eat it all. Which I assume is due to me being an opportunistic feeder that doesn’t have to eat very often.
This might be one of my "weirder" rants but I think I came to a realization that the way I eat has been a pretty big sign my therianthropy.
Ever since I was little, adults in my life have been nagging me that I "eat improperly."
The biggest thing I got told off for (and still get told off for) is that I eat too fast, or a I take too big of bites when I eat. I never have understood why people thought this was such a big deal. I'm eating the way that is most comfortable for me and somehow that's the "wrong way."
I am eating like I should .
To me, this has been part of my disconnect from "the human experince." I don't eat like a human, I've always been eating like an animal; even without realizing it. Subconsciously eating as fast as I need so that my competitors don't take my food. Big bites, like a bear would. Sometimes even large portion sizes, like a bear would.
I would like to know other alterhuman's experience with food and/or eating habits. Does anyone else feel like they were eating a certain way or only eating a certain type of food and not realizing they were doing it?
Humans are so scared of realising they're animals like all the rest of us, that they have to make up some excuse as to why they're different. Those excuses basically boil down to experiences that are universal to most life and assuming it's exclusive to them. Like no, love and compassion are not uniquely human. Most social animals share those traits. Art and beauty aren't either. Nor is language. Humans are animals like the rest of us. And that's okay. Nature is a beautiful thing, and you are part of it
