Friends, I made a thing!

We’re Not Really Humans

A Non-Human Get-To-Know-You Game

(based on We’re Not Really Strangers)

The game features 3 levels of questions, each “deeper” than the last, all to open up a dialogue about the nonhuman experience.

And, you can play with strangers or long-time friends alike!

Download a PDF of the full game or enjoy it on Quizlet!

The PDF version includes:

• All 150 question cards

• Card backs for printing purposes

• Blank cards to add your own questions

• A small rulebook

This is intended to be a community resource, so if you have any questions you’d like me to add in the next version, or any changes you’d like to see, please reach out!

This was a labor of love, I really hope you all like it! There are also some mistakes and flaws, but don’t worry, there will be a new and improved version next year!

Hey alterhumans, need ya help. Would it be crazy to say I’m a puppy with wings?

For a longggg time I’ve yearned for the sky and have felt phantom wings similar to when I feel a phantom snout, I think, pretty much since I was very little. I’ve been trying to go through all kinds of creatures with wings to see if I’m kinning anything else, but I really just don’t think I’m anything other than a puppy. Nothing else feels right. Can I kin smth like that? Kinning a puppy with wings? Is there a name for this??

(Sorry if any of the terms I used are wrong, I get a little confused sometimes!)

Alterhuman question time. This question is not meant to start discourse or drama. You're completely valid if you also do this. As well as if you don't.

Do you give names to your theriotypes? Why, or why not. Some I do, others I don't. I do this for a few reasons actually.

I'm a polytherian, so one is usually more dominant then the others. Since it switches, it's just easier for me to reference the name as opposed to saying "I'm currently my brown/grizzly bear again." As an example.

It's like a secret code almost. So I can be stealth about it! My younger sibling is also a therian, so I usually use this system with her.

It kinda helps me feel closer to myself in a way? I know it sounds silly, as I'm still me regardless of my name. But I feel so much more like myself as Ol' Reliable (my bloodhound theriotype)

Hello, I want to talk about something I’ve been thinking about relating to otherlinks and otherkins.

So, otherkins identify involuntarily and otherlinks identify voluntarily right? But, what if you could voluntarily be an Otherkin by being an otherlink first?

For example: let’s say someone chose to identify as a crab (either for coping or for fun). Later on, they stopped choosing to identify as a crab. But, they start to identify as one involuntarily. Is that Otherkin or otherlink?

I wanted to use another example, but I completely forgot it. But, thanks for the likes and comments on my last two posts!

Hello alterhuman community! I need everyones help ;w;

I am currently trying to figure out if i am a physical therian or not but i don't really have a strong enough grasp on what it even means. So if you're a willing physical therian, please share your experience, it would help me out a lot :>

Got a little curious so I figured I'd make a poll on this...

Hyperphantasia is the opposite of aphantasia It describes being able to very vividly "see"/imagine (realistic) images with your mind's eye On top of this, hyperphantasia includes being able to experience other senses with the image, such as taste, texture, sound, and smell

[READ ABOVE] Do you experience frequent and/or intense phantom shifts, and do you have hyperphantasia?

Freq &/or intense phantom shifts; Have hyperphantasia

Freq &/or intense phantom shifts; Might have hyperphantasia

Freq &/or intense phantom shifts; NO hyperphantasia

INfreq &/or vague phantom shifts; Have hyperphantasia

INfreq &/or vague phantom shifts; Might have hyperphantasia

INfreq &/or vague phantom shifts; NO hyperphantasia

NO phantom shifts; Have hyperphantasia

NO phantom shifts; Might have hyperphantasia

NO phantom shifts; NO hyperphantasia

Other? (Please explain!)
