I'll go first;

"Humans aren't special, they're just apes that got lucky and made fire."

Just apes? Fuck you, apes and all primates are cool as shit. The intelligence that primates display is fucking awesome to witness, and that includes humans. The stereotype of apes being nothing but violent monsters is absurd and immature. Shove your misanthropy and primate-hating up your tail hole.

Hello, greetings.

Can I request a female gorilla moldboard, please? No must ofc. If you decide to make such, I'd love to have it heavily nature based with greens.

Thank you.

thank you so much for your request!!! i hope you enjoy :3c

🐶🧡🦍

"Nonhuman" not because I don't identify as human in the slightest, but rather because I don't identify as the kind of human you're expected to be nowadays

Ooga booga caveman time‼️‼️‼️‼️

Did some lemur-style quadrobics! I picked up the walking gait really quickly considering I’ve never walked like a quadruped primate before I’ve always walked like a canine. I mean I am a biological primate as well so I guess that makes sense! Practiced balancing on a log and a low stone wall which also felt good but I need better shoes. The jumping-style fast gait felt really fun but wore me out really fast. I only did like five minutes total it’s quite a workout but I look forward to improving!

I ran around on all fours when I was a younger kid (like over ten years ago now, wait it was fifteen years ago I feel old) anyway I did it a Lot, like on walks around the neighborhood and stuff. Anyway I was good and it didn’t feel hard but today, moving more like a primate, it’s the most natural I’ve ever felt doing quads. Which makes sense because my proportions and joints are right for that kind of movement!

i was camping last week and had what i might consider a "shift", and i've been thinking about it ever since

i got this very visceral mental image of my entire body growing medium-length brown fur and my nose becoming dark and slightly damp, like how most caniform's noses are. it honestly seemed like the typical sasquatch or really oldschool werewolf portrayals

it felt like i had stepped away from human society and "unleashed the real me", even if only in my mind's eye. this is not the first time this particular shift has happened to me, and this form is one of my earliest shifting memories back in childhood

so now i'm considering if this is some novel way my gorilla theriotype manifested (since it does share many characteristics with my gorilla 'type) or if this is a different 'type entirely. one of the first 'types I thought I was was a werewolf - and I'm wondering if this is still true, but perhaps mine is a different form than most werewolf otherkin seem to be (which tends to be much more wolf-like than the classic "wolfman" archetype)
