Technically A Lot Of Lizards Have A "3rd Eye", A Patch Of Photosensitive Cells On The Top Of Their Head

Well shit I guess I'm transpecies, by this definition. Like, the whole idea of pursuing different life paths that line up with your species. I'd like to actually get in shape so I can at least have some semblance of the strength I'd have as a dragon. Can't exactly teach yourself to blast gigantic beams of ice from your throat but. You can learn to build muscle.

I dunno if id do bio-hacking but some scale tattoos would be nice

Also I'm letting my nails grow out so I have dragon claws muahaha I am a danger to society >:D

Re- your question about trans-species.

I obviously can't make a lot of physical changes as I would like to, and I think people get hung up on "surgery" when there isn't much that can currently be done. for me, being trans-species is more about making paradigm changes and pursuing certain life paths/not hiding aspects of non humanity. I'm an alien and basically I'd say my "transition" was about recognizing that aspects of my life are so terribly distressing to me because I'm just not human and then making a choice to change those things to suit being an alien. It felt like getting more serious about actually accommodating being non human.

An example- I don't have a normal circadian rhythm anymore, I hacked it over time by not forcing myself to stay in bed when I inevitably wake at 3 am. I support this with naps when I need them but my kin dysphoria lessened when I saw aspects of human living as societally constructed. It's controversial, which is why I'm on anon, but trans-species can mean a lot of things, but it for me is about making the choice to allow aspects of your kin self to be more physical or be more visible. be that body mods or some other kind of bio hacking.

Some of this, yes, is not good for the body. Like toe-walking for the feeling of digi legs for example. I make sure to stretch after spending time doing something like that. It's all a risk assessment kind of thing.

It's just people think it's about physical ears and tails but it can be about lots of aspects of one's lifestyle.

this answer was actually so fucking perfect, thank you so much, im so sorry it took me so long to respond, i had no idea what to say

i had been ever so slightly questioning if i was perhaps trans-species when id posted my question, thanks to all the answers i got ive come to the conclusion that im not as i dont have the desire to transition into my species. i already am my species :)

thank you, my fantastic alien anon, and thank you to everyone else who responded to my post for all your great answers, and please, by all means, keep sending me stuff!! i wanna learn about yall, ur so cool :)))

SO MAD RIGHT NOW.

Lately I've been trying to sleep on my stomach, like how a dragon would. I do this by putting a pillow down beneath my hips when laying down, to simulate the feeling of laying on top of a treasure hoard. This is also more healthy for someone with a human-shaped spine. Sleeping on your stomach can mess up a human's back without that.

A few nights ago, I slept like that and woke up with no back pain AT ALL. Like .. LESS than the usual amount of back pain. Which gave me a ton of kin euphoria. Sleeping like a dragon actually helped me feel better. I could hold my head high, and I felt stronger. One of the most powerful feelings on the god damned planet.

So I tried again last night. Got comfy.

And then FOR SOME REASON, I SHIFTED THE PILLOW IN MY SLEEP SO IT WAS BENEATH MY HEAD AGAIN.

IT WASN'T EVEN COMFORTABLE!!!

So now I've just got back pain again and my neck is so sore that I'm positive it'll give me a headache later. So mad. Why did I do that in my sleep. Sleep-Ninian is an idiot.

Unhinged 30 Days of Otherkin Challenge: DAY 13

DAY 13: hey, how's it going

Honestly, fucking amazing right now. Today was great. I ran until my lungs nearly gave out, and caught my second wind. I think this is what they call a runner's high? I could literally feel the wind under my wings. Gliding across my scales. It was breathtaking.

ok this wasnt very unhinged but im happy rn ok

#something something on the Internet nobody knows you're a dragon

the beauty of online anonymity in the alterhuman community is that i don't know what any of you look like irl, so when i read your posts and picture you speaking them aloud, i imagine that a wolf, or a crow, or a dragon, or whatever creature you may be, is the one speaking

trans women don't listen to the haters. hrt will make your body hair thin out and your skin smoother and your teeth sharper and your sense of smell better and you'll start growing scales and wings and a tail and you'll be able to breathe fire

The strong desire to fly above the trees in the middle of the night, wind stirring the thick fur that keeps me warm. A gap parting the trees for a river flowing away from a basin at the foot of a waterfall. Thirsty, I dive down, and before I hit water, I transform from a winged wolf into a water dragon. From beneath the water I swim to the waterfall and surface. I relish the way the water falls onto my scales. The underwater currents swirling around my body. The water from the waterfall is cool, crisp, and tastes so refreshing, befitting the thirst of a creature as majestic as I.

So I tilt my head up to drink from the falls, open my mouth, and GAWSGAHRWGLRASGH that yummy wator.
