🦅Gryphon screams and starry wishes🌠

Starlight // She/her // Gryphonkin // Neurodivergent // ✨

[starlight-feathers]

A temporary introduction to my starlight-feathers page:

Ok a bit about me:

- you can call me Starlight

- my kintypes: Gryphon, fox, wolf, and there's something else that I'm trying to put into words. I'm some kind of ...being. from beyond the known universe. The best way I can express it currently is stars and infinite colors. 🌠🌌✨🎨 but it's not quite that... and I've been told by a friend who exists in the spiritual and unseen that there's a universe within me... perhaps that's why I have been thinking of stars... what shall I call this? I'm Cosmic? I'm...?

- I also have a plural system. Idk how active they wanna be here with me yet - I might not talk about them too much currently. Most of them are birds or gryphons. EDIT - 🐦‍⬛ The Raven: I might post sometimes

- I get really nervous and insecure and I second guess myself a lot so if I disappear it's probably because I got overwhelmed emotionally

- I tend to write at length.

- know it means a ton to me if you engage with my content in any way. I cherish words and connections and interactions and emojis, etc. 💖💖💖

- I'm autistic and ADHD

- body age is adult

- I'll add more as I think of it.

Rules for my page

((🦊 Hehehehehe this is MY SPACE hehe (my page). Of course, I'll follow everyone else's social rules too - I get so nervous about making sure I'm following rules - but here, well, I just wanna be myself 🥺. I just wanna radiate starlight and do my fox giggles and spread my wings. Ya know?)))

- I just want this to be a positive space for us all to be ourselves.

- (emotionally/psychologically) safe vibes please 🥺 respectful, kind, etc. And If you encounter something new that you think you might not like (like if you're new to alterhumanity) - remember you may gain more from listening and learning than from jumping to conclusions.

- please feel free to spread your wings here too and SCREEEE and ✨✨✨ and use unique creative writing styles and express yourself and be nonsensical. And keep it safe for others to do so.

- Let's be ourselves, shine bright, and stay positive! ✨ (Unless you need to vent or something 🥺 sometimes we need to reflect on the negative ya know)

- I'll add more rules/boundaries if/when I feel like it's needed. This is all a work in progress

Hi, I hope you’re okay and well

Thanks for asking! I'm just ok. Not thriving, but...not terrible either. Kinda burnt out ngl. Frustrated by how little I've progressed in life. Spending too many hours just playing games to make time go by. Unsatisfied by any small ideas to move forward. I wanna do something meaningful...and I don't feel meaningful. It would make me depressed but I'm too numb for that now. I'm just kinda...stuck?

Anyhow, it does pick me up a bit that a stranger cared enough to ask how I am :)

Remember to take breaks.

Your paws are tired, little beast. Rest your legs.

Your claws have put in their work for today. Let them be idle if they must.

Your wings have carried you far, flying friend. They need to recharge.

Your teeth have brought you through tough times. Rest your jaws, as their job is never over.

Your eyes have shown you the world and beyond. Show them solace if just for a few minutes.

If not you, who will care for your body? And what of your soul? Your entire being needs its time. Don't deny it.

#felt this on a spiritual level #really calling me out here #my wings are so tired #my jaws can't rest #how do I even rest anyway

Wolfkin looking for some new songs? I got one for you! "Fangs" by Zayde Wolf

Oh and also "Running With The Wolves (WolfWalkers edition)" by AURORA

[watcherwingedcat]

I made alterhuman propaganda for my friend, who's questioning alterhumanity. Everyone can be nonhuman if they want to. This includes therians, otherkin, nonhuman, alterhuman, otherlink, copylink... Made this in canva instead of listening in class haha whoops.

Inspired by @fluffy-kale's meme. Original idea under the cut

🐦‍⬛The Raven: To anyone else who is a helper or caretaker or some other role that involves tending to the emotional and physical needs of the host/system (like if they need to eat/sleep or if they feel sad):

Do you ever feel like you'd really like to reach out for outside help for something, but the host or others in your system won't let you and they won't reach out for help themselves?

Currently the host in our system has had very very little social interaction in the last couple years and she's too scared to reach out to friends and I want to for her but she won't let me. All I can do is watch powerlessly and support her as best as I can as she sinks into loneliness, anxiety and discouragement....

The Raven (main helper in this plural system):

Within our system, everyone is fine. But Starlight (the main/host who pretty much is always fronting)? It crushes me how she's always caring so much about others, feeling so much, wanting to help everyone in new unique ways and do the most she possibly can, and carrying way too much weight from wanting to do so much and caring so much....and... feeling the way that she is. Discouraged, unwanted, different, unloved, alone, even as she wishes well on everyone.

I just realized this is really the only platform we're active on that I can say anything. Everywhere else, I basically just........don't exist? 😖

Idk what this post is even gonna do or if anyone will respond. You know what I REALLY wanna do? I wanna message some of her friends (most are in another state which she moved out of and wants to move back to) and state who I am and ask that they please talk to Starlight cause she needs friends. There's so many times I wished I could reach out to others on her behalf. Times when she REALLY needed help.

Also our system needs a name ahahahah

✨You are unique✨

Your voice is one of a kind

Nobody else writes, blogs, thinks, etc. just like you!!!!

Which means ...

You're important

If you don't feel that way or don't think your reality reflects any of this....let it start with you and me. Say it to yourself!

Tell yourself:

I'm important

My voice has value

I'm wonderful

I'm beautiful in my own ways ✨✨✨ (YOU ARE!)

I AM VALUABLE 💖

I love myself 🥺

I love all the stuff I've worked on and the words I've written here

WHERE IS THIS DEJA VU COMING FROM

Anyway uhhhh back to listing random thoughts whenever my ADHD cooperates....

Even if there's something you don't like, that's okay. It's okay. IT'S OKAY, OKAY?!?? (Partially just screaming at myself to convince myself) You're okay!!!! It's gonna be alright. 🥺😊

Here's a smiley face for you 😊

And here is sparkles and loving kind vibes ✨💖💕 to send you on your way ✨

[starlight-feathers]

IT'S ALL OKAY!!!!! SERIOUSLY!!! (still screaming at myself)

AAAAAAAAAAAA - (I proceed to run off into the distance, still screaming about things being ok. The irony of this is that it probably makes you question if I even am okay...am I? I guess I will be once I've convinced myself. Lol)

Hey, wanna know the ultimate trick to help you explain alterhumanity?

Saying that you "identify" as something can be really, REALLY hard to grasp for a ton of people, so just use a different phrasing with the same meaning!

For example, if you're in a situation were you have to explain your identity to someone who's a bit less open minded, instead of saying

"I identify as a fox"

just say

"I see myself as a fox" or "I feel more like a fox instead of a human"

That has the exact same meaning, but is much easier to understand!

"Yeah, I just kinda see myself as a fox. When I see images of them I kinda go 'hey! That's me!', and doing things a fox would do makes me happy"

Boom. Your chances of being understood just went up by like 80

[starlight-feathers]

Sometimes I think of explaining myself as 'I imagine myself as a Gryphon. It makes me feel fierce'. And ...that's how I do indeed imagine myself.

Feel, think of, imagine...yeah.

[starlight-feathers]

🌌🌠 I'm currently screaming into the universe for everyone to be free to exist in ways beyond darkness and pain and into boundless light and delight and love and...all those ideal things you could never possibly dream of but...well, I dream of it. I dream and envision....so much....🌌🌠

I'm like a 🌠shooting star🌠. I exist as wishes and dreams and I send little ✨sparkles✨ down to earth that crash down and echo....

💛 And I won't just dream. I'm a fierce Gryphon. I will find ways...💛✨

[starlight-feathers]

For too long I've been hidden. But I may have found a place to start shining. I've taken a liking to the #alterhuman community...you all are so open minded to those who are different. And I believe those of us who are alterhuman have unusual gifts that the outside world hasn't really realized or appreciated....

I think alterhumans:

Are more sensitive to their true identity (or identities)

May also be more sensitive to other conscious beings in some way or another (plurality)

Are aware that there's more than these eyes can see

Are incredibly, beautifully diverse in our identities

Are so incredibly brave and strong inside

Have a unique kind of intelligence

Each alterhuman has their own unique gifts

I can't think of anything else. Maybe I'll make a part 2 later. Y'all feel free to add ideas

Hopefully I didn't say anything wrong. I'm new to actually saying stuff here so I'm kinda nervous 🥺

Trump administration backtracks on eliminating thousands of national parks employees

Following a loud public outcry, and relentless media campaign from outdoors enthusiasts, the Trump administration has reversed course on a p

[jpierrepontcriss]

"The memo addressed only temporary seasonal employees. It said nothing about the roughly 1,000 members of the National Park Service’s permanent workforce who were fired Friday."

great progress has been made and there is still work to be done! the NPCA has a form email you can send to Congress. you can also use this text as a script when calling your reps. here is another script you can use, and another from 5calls.

[starlight-feathers]

This is something I'm currently very passionate about. 🏞️🏞️🏞️

[wizardsfang]

[starlight-feathers]

I just wanna lift others up and spread positivity. But my voice got stifled... there is so much I fear. But still. A Gryphon must scream. A bird must sing.

If you're reading this, know and remember you are:

- valid

- amazing

- strong

- magical!!!! ✨✨ Everyone has an inner magic 😊✨

- sending starry colorful magical vibes your way ✨💖🌠🌌

Tell me more about yourself in the comments and maybe I'll give you even more starry words ✨✨✨

Ok I didn't mean to make the below in question format. It was supposed to be rhetorical lol but I can't figure out how to change it so maybe it's a happy accident.

(can anybody hear me... (🎶lyric from: Astronaut by Simple Plan🎶))

✨✨✨ yes

echoes in the void... answerless...

Stop wishing to be. Just be. Just do.

I look at you kindly. My Gryphon form is glowing like I am made of starlight. My wings radiate warmth and ribbons of light and color flow out of me and swirl around. I am magnificent. I am me. And just who might you be? Show yourself...

[starlight-feathers]

Y'all. I found a way to feel like my kinself without doing anything physically.

It's all a matter of perception.

Right now, I feel my front talons, I know they're beautiful and shiny, I feel my fluffy wings, my tail to the point where I don't even really feel my human self.

It's more than imagination. I daresay that's not enough - if anything, I personally think it would leave me longing for more.

To do this, ...well, currently, for me, it's natural and thoughtless. It's just there and I can tap into it whenever I want.

....I don't know, how did this start? How do i do it? It's definitely spiritual or metaphysical or some advanced form of mind/being...and tapping into awareness of it. This feels different... it's more real, it feels like I'm made of starlight and energy....It's also letting go of the physical and making room for higher things. The path is likely personal to you. I'd be happy to answer any questions
