theres a cosplay day at school and its like. for tv show characters. does asscastle count cuz a lot of cate's works are basically referred to as shows and shown to be shows in some odd way and they talk about budgets and shit. is it tangentally related enough for an asscastle cosplay.
Found this new game that I really enjoy! It is called "マイ・ゲーム [M̵Y̶ ̴G̸A̸M̷E̵]", by the roblox group Project Spheroid.
[TW: this game can cause unreality feelings and is horror based. It also has distorted images, eyebleed, and a jumpscare if you die on the last game. And as always, spoilers.]
The game starts off with this friendly geometric blorbo introducing you to the 3 games you have in store. As it continues, the game gets more and more distorted and you start to see eyes in the backrgound. This is an overview of my intial experiences and opinions about this game.
I was not very good at the frist game, which is the classic "guess which cup has the coin in it" game, but if you win all 3 rounds you get the "カップシャッフルマスター" badge.
The second gaem is Rock Paper Scissors! The game will only go 3 rounds if you win back to back to back, and then you will win a "賢明な選択" badge. If not, you get a few more chances.
Finally, the third and hardest (in my non professional opinion) part of the game is a matching game. By the point of your first playthrough of the game, it should be pretty distorted by then. When you go into the final game, it will go to a black screen with a white cresent shape in the corner with japanese text over it, as it was with the rest of the game. And as it continues red japanese text will start to overlay everything.
Then, when you get into the game, it will look like several rows of boxes with red and black question marks on it, that will be very grainy. The backrgound will be black with grainy red japanese text.
When you try and Match, you will probably find it telling yout to "move your cursor away from eye pieces". When you hit a card with an eye, the game will kill you. I have not gotten past this level. However, if you do, you will earn yourself the "勝利の記憶" badge.
Other notable badges:
A game over badge titled, "ゲームオーバー", and a badge I am unsure what it is for titled "オーバー".
Other notable things:
While trying to get the Rock Paper Scissors badge, I chose scissors too many times I suppose and it turned my cursor into a scissor. This stayed the same throughout the rest of my several playthroughs.
As well, when you join the game again, the geometric friend will be surprised that you returned. When entering the Matching Game, they will say you are making a mistake and it will be cut off before going into the game.
And finally, when you die in the matching game, you will have to leave the game and log back in. The geometric guy will stay sad for the remainder of the time after this. I do not know currently if there is a way to reset the game to it's beginning. Nothing else is notable, however this is my first review of the game. If I find anything more as I deep dive this game, I will update you all with a P2!
Closing Thoughts:
One of the better games out there today for sure. I enjoyed it a lot and hope to see some people with more of a platform cover it, because I think it deserves some recognition for how it is doing. I don't know if the maker was Japanese or if they are just using it for the aesthetics, which is so I am unsure how much I jive with that, but overall from a game aspect it holds up. I do not know Japanese so maybe there is stuff I am missing here with the words in the back, or maybe the character who is saying that text being Japanese is incredibly important! For now, I have no clue. All I can say is I reccomend you try this game for yourself and see how you feel about it. And maybe even share with me your own thoughts/opinons!
Anyways, overall, very nice game. Hope to see more of stuff with interesting elements like this in the future. Sure, it is cliché, especially in today's horror game scene, however I think it is well-made and had the effort put in to make it great at what it is. I have noticed the group Project Spheriod has more games to it, and I plan to cover them in the future. From what I can infer by this game, I think these games will be promising.
(should preface this by saying that being otherhearted, strongly relating to something, and otherlink, choosing to identify as something, are cool. Kff i'm still iffy about but i think most aren't weird about otherkin anymore)
this is fascinating to me because it's almost exactly the same as what happened with kff (kin for fun). taking a term and using it wrong. then mocking the community, that they took the term from for using it correctly.
idk if it was ever a big problem on tumblr but i used to see people post kin-lists and then act like actually identifying as your kins was bad, usually with lots of ableist language. (crazy/insane/delusional/etc.) it got to the point where i saw a couple posts that said they were 'reclaiming' the term when they learned about genuine otherkin??
i don't frequent tik tok or youtube, so idk if it's gotten to that point but hopefully things chill out quickly.
It's exactly what happened to the otherkin except this time the word isn't being shortened to something else (otherkin to just calling it kin).
It's a real shame that the moment 'identify as' alterhuman identities become popular enough to be visible many people decide for themselves what the term means. The decision always being, of course, that identifying outside of ones visible species is too weird, too wrong, to be real.
Otherkin meaning you identify as something nonhuman or a fictional human? No, it just means you relate to it or like it a lot.
Therian meaning you genuinely identify as an animal? No, it just means you relate to an animal and enjoy dressing as one and doing quads.
They're not even specifically against physical therians, they're against the very core concept of being therian - genuinely identifying as an animal. Because it's weird. Because it's abnormal. Because it's not immediately physically obvious. Because it's unusual. Because if it's strange it must be delusional and being ableist is fine if you're mocking weird people right?
Otherkin turned into a synonym for 'stanning'.
Therian is becoming basically a synonym for low-key/casual furry (the irony being that the term Otherpaw exists for those who enjoy therian-coded activities but aren't therians).
And there's basically no way to stop it. All you can do is make videos explaining the actual facts with sources. Countering it with your own posts and videos is going to be more useful than commenting on videos where everyone there is already convinced they know what it means. You have to be there spreading the correct information so that genuine alterhumans know they have community.
The person in this video probably got their ideas from others. They may genuinely be a bat, they may be a bat furry who likes doing therian stuff and is a little confused. Either way, I hope they listen and allow themselves to be educated in the future.
Shaking the alterhuman and fictionkin community by the shoulders, your advice is good but please remember there are individuals who literally function on how they're perceived!! Remember that there are literal pwNPD and other personality disorders in your circles who may not be able to benefit from your advice due to things like this!!
I have NPD and I have to constantly worry about how others perceive me to gauge my own ego, and it's upsetting to me when others tell me to stop because I literally can't function without it! I need to know how others perceive me so I can fuel myself. It's why a lot of my headmates also get upset when others don't perceive them 'correctly'.
This stems to my kintypes too! Like I need others to perceive me in the way I perceive myself. I am so many bats, a few pearls, and other things and I want others to perceive me that way.
I feel like some alterhumans are so willing, so excited, to have an opportunity to cast others out for approval. We've (on here, at least) normalized clinical lycanthropy and other forms of physical nonhumanity now, so they can't go for them anymore - they have to find another target. Isofic folk. Nonpeople. Factfolk (+isofact folk.) You say you're done with respectability politics but we all see you're not.
additionally, i have now seen them watering down these labels. i had someone tell me physical therians don't actually think they are animals they just say they are physical so people see them more as their theriotypes and that actually physical identification was CL x/
like how hard is it to conceptualize the fact that the community is diverse. weird. unpalatable. you will not have a nice answer of what a type of alterhuman is prettily packaged with a bow on top. there will always be the "weird" ones. there will always be different experiences, experiences you havent heard of or don't understand. and that's okay.

We need to embrace the 'weird' parts of therianthropy/otherhumanity
I'm sick of seeing people in the community get shamed for very real urges and feelings. I shouldn't be shamed by other therians for wanting to pee to mark my territory. I shouldn't be shamed by other vampkins for wanting to drink blood. I shouldn't be shamed for wanting to bite people as a zombiekin. I shouldn't be shamed for wanting to growl, maul, scratch, ect. It's what I feel, its me. I shouldn't be shamed for it, and neither should anybody else.
Hello people of tumblr! I've made a short survey for anyone who identifies as nonhuman to help me with a research project I'm doing for school! Any and all responses are helpful!!
I created this survey as a way to gain more knowledge about those who identify as nonhuman and their experiences for a research project I'm
