gillman @handle.invalid · 23/09/2026THAT BEING SAID none of these places seem to really... care what you do outside of these spaces so long as it's not illegal, yk? I would be shocked if it becomes a problem. I'll DM you the link to otherconnect when I get it! 110
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/09/2026Yeah! You should be fine. I know OKP + Otherconnect have 18+ specific spaces. OKP does allow NSFW content. Otherconnect I'm not 100% on. I honestly haven't bothered to get the 18+ role for the channels as of yet but it does exist. Otherkin.net I'm unsure about. 110
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/09/2026very privileged to say that ive never been targeted online by anti-kin. i HAVE, however, been told that i deserve to be put in a psych ward by a fellow nonhuman because i uhh. said calling psychotic breaks "funny" was not nice. so. current state of affairs rn, i think. 020
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/09/2026+ nonhuman national park is also good! less discussion heavy last I checked, but friendly and welcoming and full of folks I enjoy 110
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/09/2026i can send a link to the server if you'd like! the other two should be easy enough to get to. the discord server for sure has a ton of adults who felt out of place in the older community, its a topic I see spoken about often ;] 110
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/09/2026I enjoy otherkin phenomena forum, otherkin.net, and the otherconnect discord server. none of them are super busy or overwhelming (the discord being the busiest), mostly adults (r 30+ for sure, but there are def teens), and I know other unconventional/uncommon folks who are regulars! 110

gillman @handle.invalid · 22/09/2026i crave bsky but every time someone calls it "theriansim" i have to close the app. therianthropy is such a beautiful word. i dont know why so few use it. i never see it used off of bsky which leads me to believe those who use it only learn about the topic via bsky which is a subject of its own 061
gillman @handle.invalid · 22/09/2026there is thunder and im in a steamy, dimmly lit tub. last night i had the most vivid meditation for my fiction in years. good evening. 020
gillman @handle.invalid · 22/09/2026therianthropy + otherkinnity are similar phenomena that spawned from two different communities. There are some differences in framework/theory around the two just due to their different origins. Otherkin can be anything, therians are often more animalistic in nature :] Very basic outline lmao 021
gillman @handle.invalid · 22/09/2026Two of my close IRL friends ended up being otherkin or therian, and I have a new friend who I REALLY suspect is a selkie.... always an odd situation. 010
gillman @handle.invalid · 22/09/2026odd! i've always seen those used as a fun shorthand for questioning/confirmed. out of all the discourse I've seen for contemporary use of "kinning", I've never heard anyone speak poorly on kinsidering/kinfirmed. I'm assuming KFF origins? 100

gillman @handle.invalid · 17/08/2026maybe look into copinglinks! other the otherkin umbrella, generally about how portraying yourself as something/choosing to be something brings immence amounts of comfort. I am a xenomorph 'link :] it makes me warm and fuzzy inside! 100
gillman @handle.invalid · 17/08/2026I know of a bipoc alterhuman discord server, if that seems like something you'd benifit from? I'm not in it so I can't vouch for anything, but it does exist! 100

gillman @handle.invalid · 31/07/2026going from a place where "holothere" is a term associated with medical trauma, a medicalized experience, and anti-psych stances to a bsky where it is just a "more mature word for therian" is disorienting and off-putting. it feels like a superiority thing and i dislike it. 020

gillman @handle.invalid · 24/07/2026it makes me cringe, too. im not going to go around correcting others but... "therianthropy" is such a beautiful word to me, "therianism" just seems silly in comparison 020
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/07/2026i have SO MANY opinions i love to share but SO LITTLE ROOM to explain them all while also not trying to come off as an asshole . 000
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/07/2026i get threads are very easy but i hate threads it make comments hellish. and i am laughing because i ran out of space in the post where i was complaining about running out of space. this is terrifying how do yall do this. 110
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/07/2026i worry i sound mean on platforms like this. i sound friendly by using a ton of words to diffuse tension. character limits make me scared, i get very short and curt because i want to utilize my space correctly. please don't take me as being snarky. and i didn't have enough space to finish this post 100
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/07/2026is there a reason we are calling therianthropy "therianism" now or is it because people are unaware of the word therianthropy 130
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/07/2026there are a ton of labels in these three dictionaries, you might find something more accurate here! www.beyondhumanity.net/alterhuman-d... alterhuman-dictionary.neocities.org otherkin.wiki/wiki/Main_Pagebeyondhumanity.netBeyond Humanity - Alterhuman DictionaryA | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z | Home 130
gillman @handle.invalid · 23/07/2026therian and otherkin both have very specific meanings, whereas alterhuman/nonhuman are more vague and perhaps less loaded. Otherheart IMO is a bit more complicated that "therian but less" but I don't think most really agree with me there, lol. 130
