- INTRO !!

welcome to my kin blog!! mostly just a post to let you know what i'll mainly be posting and a bit about me. i'd suggest reading below the cut but i get having a short attention span so just a fair warning that i block freely

last updated: jun. 16th, 2025

i'm volt/tick and go by they/it/haunt/daze pronouns + a couple of other sets. i have audhd, ocd, anxiety, and am physically disabled due to long covid. i like and follow from @loveologystudies

i'm polykin, but i'll mostly be posting about my mudwing kin silt, who you can find out more about here

i'm also mainly looking to find some other mudwings on here, since it's pretty much only rainwings and seawings posting in the kin tags here lol

i'll generally be blocking kin for fun ppl from this blog, since this is an alterhuman blog it just feels a little weird to have them here

nothing else to say other than feel free to interact!! i promise i don't bite i'm just very scared </3

tag system timeeee

[wizardsfang]

Yeah it turns out being an animal thing was so deeply imbedded into me that I just magically fit in all the fun animal subcultures

Honestly therianthropy is an under explored area in philosophy yet has some fantastic opportunities to raise questions for ontology as well as in a more broader metaphysical context

[wizardsfang]

It’s so underexplored that i actually don’t believe it’s entirely unexplored- like- I sincerely believe it’s probably just missing information and history.

We definitely are lacking a suspicious amount of information or thought or conversation on a topic thats *definitely* old

DOES THE "EVERY POKEMON IS AT LEAST ONE PERSON'S FAVOURITE" THING APPLY TO POKÉKIN? IS THERE A POKEKIN OF EVERY POKEMON?

Couldn't get the idea of ASMR Pokemon grooming out of my head lol

Straight up sheeping it.

And by it, I mean my wool.

[puzzled-pegasus]

Here's some silly little metaphors that I think the dragon tribes would use

SkyWings

“Don’t count your clutch before they hatch.” (Don't plan too much too soon)

“Gold is better than silver, but silver is better than nothing.” (If you can't do it perfectly, still try your best. Most dragons forget the second part.)

“‘Sorry’ can't suck the fire back in.” (The damage is done and now you're dead to me.)

“You been eating too much burnt meat or something?” (Are you nuts?)

“Stop all this smoke and use your fire.” (Stop rambling and get to the point already; or stop complaining and do something)

“Doesn't know his tail from his wings.” (Stupid or clumsy)

“You fly like a depressed pigeon.” (Slow flier)

“There's no fire in a rainstorm.” (Stop feeling sorry for yourself and get to work.)

“Nighttime is for the NightWings.” (What are you doing up? Go to sleep.)

SandWings

“She’s all rattle, and no strike.” (Like all bark no bite)

“A diamond in a pile of quartz.” (Like a needle in a haystack)

“You’re watering the cactus and ignoring the sapling.” (You’re focusing on the wrong thing; barking up the wrong tree)

“Everyone thinks the camel looks silly until the dry season comes.” (Don't listen to them, they don't know how unique and strong you are)

MudWings

“Crocodile tears.” (Fake crying in order to gain sympathy)

“You can only catch a trout if your mouth is open.” (Be open to new experiences)

“If the tree gives away too much, it ends up as a stump.” (Don't let people take advantage of your generosity)

SeaWings

“Happy as a clam in high water.” (Very happy)

“The flying fish feels like a fool when it sees an osprey.” (Don't compare yourself to others, run your own race.)

“Plenty of fish in the sea.” (Plenty more opportunities to come.)

“You’ve got ink in your eyes.” (You're blind to something important)

“Lobsters only die when they don't leave their shell.” (Keep yourself busy with new experiences and you'll life a long life)

NightWings

“Sleep is for the dead.” (Why waste your time sleeping when you could be productive)

“SeaWings know their fish and SandWings know their cactuses, but we NightWings know everything else.”(NightWing supremacy propaganda)

“Being nice to a deer never got one in my mouth.” (Other dragons don't matter, only your goals.)

“A prophecy always comes true.” (I told you so but more cryptic)

"You're counting the stars." (You're doing something tedious towards an unachievable goal)

RainWings

“Gray’s her favorite color.” (She's a huge bummer)

“A lemon is yellow on the outside, doesn't mean they're not sour.” (Referring to someone who is two faced or fake)

“I love honey, but I’d rather not get stung by the bees.” (I could do this, but it requires effort so I don't wanna)

“Nobody likes a rotten banana.” (Nobody likes a bummer/downer)

“Don't tie your tail in a knot” (don't get all upset)

“I have all my berries in a basket” (I have everything sorted out)

“You couldn't sneak up on a pineapple” (insult to one's camouflage skills, popular among children)

IceWings

“The seal who asks why the orca is chasing him is the first to get eaten.” (A favorite of parents telling their kids to shut up)

“Not the sharpest icicle on the roof” (kinda stupid or slow)

“Clear as polished ice” (i understand or see it very well)

“You're looking a little pink in the face” (you look sickly. IceWings can turn pink from eating too much krill; a symptom of malnutrition. This line can be applied to any illness.)

“Blue blood kills, red blood spills.” (Patriotic propaganda implying that IceWings win every fight

“The SkyWings toss their blue eyed hatchlings because they're worried they'll be as strong as an IceWing.” (More propaganda)

HiveWings

“Pretty is for the SilkWings.” (Vanity is stupid and impractical)

“If it buzzes like a bug and bites like a bug, it's a bug.” (Don't ignore the obvious)

“Clearsight works in mysterious ways.” (I don't know the answer to your question, now go away)

SilkWings

“It's not always good to know how the honey gets made.” (Don't stick your snout where it doesn't belong)

“She's got a couple of threads loose.” (Calling someone a little crazy, threads refers to weaving)

“The bee minds its flowers and the spider minds her silk, it's when they mix that bad things happen.” (Mind ya business)

LeafWings

“Flytraps only trap because the soil doesn't feed them.” (Dragons don't get angry out of nowhere)

“Looking like a leaf only hides you in the forest.” (Time and place)

“If a branch doesn't bend, it breaks.” (Be flexible)

“Even the corpse flower attracts the flies.” (Even someone who seems ugly to one dragon they can seem irresistible to another)

I've noticed a problem in the alterhuman community here that folks are making their posts inaccessible and hard to read by coloring their text excessively.

When you are typing with colored text like this

Please remember that typing like this, as cool as it looks makes things hard for some people to read, and even can break screenreaders!

If you are going to make posts in this format please add plain text, or tag your posts as not screenreader freindly.

This isnt the only reason posts are inaccessible but i feel like folks dont realize this is a issue.

[phantomofthemountain]

ALSO!!! I hate when I try to read someone's bio only to be unable to read it because they chose a background color that is just slightly darker/brighter than the text color.

I cannot count the amount of times I've had to turn my brightness all the way up (or down), bring my phone as close to my face as possible, and cover all the surrounding info with my hand, and close one eye, just so I can read their bio 😭

Squinting for forever at someone's low contrast DNI banner only to read "ableists dni"
