[ID: A set of four symbols, two black and two white. It depicts a small circle with a dot in the middle and two small lines coming off of it. It is surrounded by a diamond. In the top images, a circle surrounds the diamond at the end, while on the bottom, the circle is smaller and links together with the diamond from behind. End ID]

This is my proposal for a nonhuman symbol; for people who identify as nonhuman in any sense. I couldn't personally decide which version I preferred, with the outer circle on the end or linked with the diamond, so I went with both.
The symbol is meant to represent many varieties of nonhumanity, and include different experiences and communities within it:
The outermost circle represents nonhumanity as a whole- the broad nonhuman community in which anyone can be included, and one's personal experiences with nonhumanity.
The inner circle with a dot represents those with psychological experiences of some kind, as it resembles the disability sun. Not just those with psychological origins- it is for anyone with psychological experiences, or something similar.
The two lines protruding out represent external experiences, such as spiritual, metaphysical, or otherwise outside experiences. This, too, represents anyone with these experiences, not just someone's origins.
The diamond represents multiple things: It can represent one's body, whether it be their physical one or otherwise, it can represent one's personhood and sense of nonhuman identity, and it can represent those who feel a desire to have a nonhuman body / nonhuman body parts, those who already have them (such as in headspace), those who have phantom limbs or otherwise, and so on. It is also a vague homage to the term aldernic.
Anybody who considers themself nonhuman, regardless of why they are nonhuman or in what way, may use this symbol for what they'd like. This includes subterms, such as ahuman.
Do not put discourse on this post.
EDIT: I merged the two symbols together, and I got these:
[ID: A set of two symbols, one black and one white. It depicts a small circle with a dot in the middle and two small lines coming off of it. It is surrounded by a diamond. There is a ring behind the diamond, and then another ring at the very edges of the diamond. End ID]
And I really love them. So I'm going to add these as yet another version of the symbol.
I get nicies when I'm awesome like a good dog ^-^ I want to jump into greeeeen meaaadowwwss

the lesboy and mspec lesbian tags have been flooded with so much negativity recently! I'm so sad to see the influx of terf ideology in a space that is meant to be safe for us. Remember to uplift eachother and spread queer joy! Exist and be loud about it!
Here is a great resource to learn about queer history:

The whole idea that forcing shifts is bad and something you shouldn't do really irks me ngl. Like yeah, if you're using it as a way to determine kintypes that's definitely not the best route to go down, but with already confirmed kintypes idk what everyone's issue is. Personally, I don't get shifts of any kind too often, so by forcing them, specifically in the case of phantom shifts, I'm able to relieve some of my species dysphoria that I may not otherwise have an outlet for. If anything, I think actively trying to get yourself to shift rather than passively waiting for one to happen (not that there's anything wrong with that) is further proof of your desire to be connected to your nonhumanity.

πΎ β€ Yes and no. For my wolf and coyote theriotype, yep I live in the same environment! Coyotes hang out a lot around where I live and there's a wolf pack about 20 miles from my house I think. It's super nice and makes me feel very at home. As for my other theriotypes no, and the only one who's environment I'd like to live in is my otter type, since the other two live on the savanna and I don't really like excessive heat/dryness lol (I also would enjoy living in the northwestern region of Europe which is the environment i associate Wolfbloods with, but idk if that fully counts since technically Wolfbloods can live anywhere lmao)
π¦· β€ It's a combo of spiritual and psychological for me. Some of my kintypes (like wolfblood and wolf) stem from being autistic and "imprinting" on these creatures when I was young or from multiple kintype experiences mushing together to make smth new (wolf + wildebeest + human = coyote), whereas others (like AWD and otter) I view as past life experiences. However, I also believe that my neurodivergency allows me to better connect to spiritual aspects of myself. So while some parts of my nonhumanity are spiritual in origin, they're all through the lens of neurodivergency.
