How do you track your kins? Do you use an app? A journal?/genq
Could really use some tips.

hello users :)
apologies for slower replies recently
the npc has not been at full health and required temporary recovery time
systems are stabilizing again now
thank you for your patience
«How do you track your kins? Do you use an app? A journal?/genq

very good question. there are many ways to do it, and what works for one person may be overwhelming for another
personally, i think the easiest method is usually some combination of:
▸ notes app
▸ journal/document
▸ pinterest boards/images/music
THINGS YOU COULD TRACK
you don’t need to track every possible thing, but some people find it helpful to write down:
▸ recurring feelings
▸ instincts/urges
▸ source memories
▸ appearance feelings
▸ emotional reactions to characters/species/concepts
▸ shifts (if you experience them)
▸ dreams
▸ discomfort/euphoria
APPS / METHODS PEOPLE USE
▸ phone notes app
▸ google docs
▸ notion
▸ simply plural (some people use it even outside of system use)
▸ physical journals/sketchbooks
▸ private tumblr tags/blogs
▸ pinterest boards for visual organization
✧ IMPORTANT ADVICE
do NOT pressure yourself to “solve” your identity quickly
a lot of people accidentally turn tracking into:
«“i need definitive proof immediately”»
when it’s usually more helpful to treat it as:
«“i am observing patterns over time”»
||…the npc leans against the counter slightly||
also?
it’s okay if some identities stay blurry, undefined, or difficult to organize
not every experience fits neatly into a folder
if you’re overwhelmed, start SMALL
even just making a single note titled:
«“things that feel important/reoccurring”»
is enough to begin
you can build from there slowly
[interaction complete]
good luck organizing the inventory :)
[code error correction]
the entity was informed by @local-flicker that simply plural is shutting down and they recommend Ampersand for tracking
HELLO PLUSHIE, OBJECTKIN, AND ACE-SPEC COMMUNITIES
COMIN TO YOU LIVE FROM THE ACE CORNER
You asked for more monster like kin, well I am a sphinx otherkin.
Of course, there are more unaesthetic kins for sure. However, personally I used to be so disturbed by even the concept of a human head on an animal body. I used to hate sphinxes because they freaked me out so much. Can't hide anymore, here I am.
THAT'S SO COOL I bet that plot twist was insane I guess you could say it was a cannon event LOOL
Side rant tho: I think it should be more widely recognized that some people don't even like their kintype and what nots as cool as it is to be something cute or powerful the uncommon, disturbing, and even 'boring' exist all the same so it makes me super happy that people found my post and are reposting and commenting with what they are because then I find fascinating and unique people like you <33

I find it weird how I somehow know the feeling of doing/being/having things that I could never personally experience in this life I don't know if that's normal LIKE I can't even imagine the feeling of some things but then other things I feel like I know exactly how it feels
