Otherkin / Fictionkin / Therians - Weirdos LARPing as animals, mythological creatures, and fictional characters

[MarineTrainedTard]

"You are all worthy, and all incandescently, illuminatingly powerful."

Xe finished typing the words and sat back in xir powerscooter, wiping sweat from xir brow. Lately even the act of typing on xir keyboard was exhausting, but xe wasn't sure why; those cishet, patriarchal shitlords tried to convince xem that it was xir "obesity" and diet, but xe knew that xe was just naturally corpulent; such size was necessary to hold in xir god-essence. Xe smiled to xirself and reached for the phone; xir SSI check had just come in, so it was time to splurge; 100% organic fried chicken, cooked in flaxseed oil from xir favorite trendy restaurant. Xe knew that it would be completely healthy, since it's 100% natural ingredients. Xe ordered the extra-large bucket, mindful that xe needed so much sustenance to maintin xir god-like form. Xie pressed the speed dial button "Yes, hello, I would like the six..." breathlessness overtook xim, the effort of xir overtaxed lungs straining to push air through xir lard-encased trachea. "...sixteen... piece bucket. Extra...large....mashed...potatoes, and a mega-sized....pepsi," xe finally gasped out the rest of the sentence. Xe smirked to xirself as xe the thought crossed xir mind once again... incandescently, illuminatingly powerful.

fucking christ typing all those made up pronouns was a herculean task.

Reading them wasn't exactly a walk in the park, either.

I thought otherkin community was just full of people who showed up at the party and were accepted because more circlejerkers is always nice

I will never get over otherkin's sense of self-importance.

 

[Colress]

a lot of otherkin are really stupid pieces of shit that are trying to act like being delusional is normal. if you believe that LITERALLY being a fucking dragon is an ok coping mechanism, you need a new coping mechanism. even i know i am NOT my kin. i'm just close to my kin. thats all.

Oldguard otherkin must be shedding a silent tear on the side of the road like that crying Indian.

That crying Indian, who went by Iron Eyes Cody, was played by an Italian actor. #appropriation #garbagekin #fakelittermate #pollution pronouns: trash/trash/trashself

Naw, it's a party that everyone just pretends is invite only, when really all you have to do is point at a random object in the house and say you identify with it.

Is it bad that I actually laughed at this one?

Honestly though, "godkin" (of any sort) are the fuckin' worst. It's just so egotistical to claim you're a fucking god. Granted, non-fictive godkin are even worse in that regard, but still.

I just love the whole "Its ok to be gay because I say so because I'm god" statement. Really paints our movement as sane on the whole.

I think that fiction kin is infinitely more bullshit than regular kin. They're both idiotic movements but it's one thing to be jace and actually believe your a wolf and to be some 17 yr old girl on tumblr who wants to be the doctor so bad she tells others that she actually is.

I know bronies have a fucked up thing where they come out of the stable like being a brony is equal to being gay. Is there anything like this for other kin?

"god says lesbians"

Magnificent.

Agreed. Not quite as bad as "factives" (people who identify as other real people), but still dumb as fuck. Especially when they claim to be characters who were relatively recently created.

Yea it's the ego associated with such a claim that pisses me off, I mean to claim to be a fictional being is one thing, to be a fictional being that commands the power of creation is another, that's not likening something cute it's a mental health problem.

What about people who are married to gods?

It's kind of mentioned in Alan Pardew's post, but a lot of otherkin think they're trans(insert convoluted identity here), with some even saying they'd get reassignment surgery if it was possible. And a lot definitely feel that then being made fun of is equivalent to actual discrimination. From what I remember, there were people talking about "coming out" to people, but then there are others who brag about randomly telling strangers they're gods or whatever.
Edit: Oh, and the whole thing with "phantom limbs" like amputees have, except theirs are phantom wings (which is really stupid because most of the time these would be animals that don't have wings) or tails or shit like that.

 

[Ancani]

Wow.

Way to invalidate the struggles of actual trans people, OP. You know, the ones who fight every day to be recognized as the gender they identify as, who deal with inadequate legal protection and societal bias, who suffer an extremely high rate of depression and have an unbelievably high suicide rate? Those ones?

Yeah, something tells me they're going through a helluva lot more than just being under the impression that they're a fucking housecat or some shit.

(Sorry it that came off as SJW-y, it's just an issue that means a lot to me since a lot of my friends are transgender.)

 

[MarineTrainedTard]

I honestly don't think it was SJW-y at all, as gender dysphoria is recognized by broader psychiatric medicine (hell, if I remember correctly, even Ayatollah fucking Khomenei recognized that some people are born as the wrong sex, so to speak, and believed that sex change operations were perfectly halaal in those cases. Of course that doesn't prevent various parties from beating the shit out of them, but still).

Otherkinism is just fucking nonsense. Like I said, it's a case of "I really like the thing, ergo I must really be the thing".
