Finally caved and made a Tumblr account for this, and it's probably a question you get a lot, but what was your experience of self-discovery like when it came to the raccoon part of your now iconic username?
Like the more therian/transhumanism side of things.
Cause like, with where I'm at right now I kind of don't really feel "human", or like in the sense that I'm not content with "being human" and want something else or something more, but can't really articulate what.
I mean, I'm pre-transition MtF and also have kind of the Exodia of mental disorders (Anxiety, Depression, OCD, ADHD, Autism) so maybe once I do actually lock in and transition I'll be comfortable in my own skin enough to be comfortable "being human", but at the same time I think I just have a fundamental discontentment with the limitations that a conventional physical form in this universe is bound by, and idk if it's just I haven't found the right form yet or what, so I really want to hear your story about your journey of self-discovery and form augmentation both out of genuine curiosity and because I might be able to learn something from your experiences.
Like I'll be the first to admit that I'm a furry and also have a fetish when it comes to transformation art, but historically when I was younger I had a similar interest in those gender transformations where a character becomes a girl and here I am now wanting to do that irl now that I know it's both possible and actually feasible (potential family drama and politics aside) so I wanna learn from someone who's not only more in the know about who/what they are and how they got there, but also someone who would actually understand what I'm talking about because of how potentially insane it would sound otherwise.
This got a lot more long-winded than I wanted it to, but that's kind of just how I type, so apologies if I jumpscared you with a wall of text.
Hey thanks for reaching out! I’ll admit that I’m currently getting pretty sleepy so I’ll inevitably forget someone and follow up later, but I’m on a roll replying to things so I can keep it up one more time :)
As far as how I became who I am now: I was working in a top secret laboratory and got this strange black goop on me. Things have never been the same since then.
…Ok I’m very much over simplifying that, but it’s kinda technically true. Basically, I got this black grease all over my lab gloves and some furry I knew made a Puro joke. I didn’t know what they were talking about at first. Then I found out about the whole furry transformation kink thing how there was like a whole ass group of people who were into it.
And like then I slowly kind of got to know therians and other alterhumans and learned that there were people who like irl wanted to be able to do this kind of stuff. After a few months, I found this sort of niche within those communities by being willing to go out and try this kind of weird shit.
There’s more to it for sure, but the main point is don’t feel bad about whatever your path to self discovery ends up being. You can find that out through kink, profound meditation, strange chemicals in a lab, or all three if you’re feeling brave :)
As far as augmentation capabilities, I feel like I’ve accomplished a decent amount for the resources I have, but as you said, having a physical body that limits you can be a real drag. Still, I think over time things will get better. It always feels like new tech is hundreds of years away until your neighbor gets it.
On that note, I’ll just say that if things work out the way I’m hoping, I’ll be getting some mods done that will blow everything else I’ve done out of the water. I’ll talk about it more when I can :)
In the meantime, feel free to follow up if I missed anything. I’m probably rambling a bit.
