i understand the therian tiktok community is filled mostly with children but i'm so tired of people there saying "you're not an animal". yes the fuck i am. literally who are you to say?? and who is teaching you this hatred for anyone who is an animal physically?

life update. Once again!! me and my fiance moved out into an apartment about 3 weeks ago so we're been busy unpacking and working, but tonight the species dysphoria has been hitting so i wanted to check up on the community over here. desperately craving for going on a hike with my tail on or something when we're less busy

hi guys, i have a PSA today unfortunately,

DO NOT buy listings like these on Etsy.

it may be obvious to some, but these sellers are buying sticker packs with stolen art from Temu and are reselling them for way more than they got them for. i have censored out their shop names as i don't want hate sent their way, but no one should be reselling people's art. i personally can recall some of the artists' art in the listings, but not their names.

if you happen to know any of these artists, please let them know! if you happen to BE one of the artists they're stealing from, i suggest you report the listing!

more below vv

here is some of the listings on Temu that these people are buying from. DO NOT BUY THESE EITHER! these are ALL stolen art. unfortunately i don't know if you're able to claim that your art was stolen on Temu :( if you could, i'd imagine it's a hard process.

you could also say "what if the people selling on Etsy don't know that the art is stolen?" considering they bought it off of Temu, an app notorious for stealing people's art and selling low quality products, this is hard to argue. i personally think they know what they're doing.

there is also the fact that people reselling things they have bought for a more expensive price is common practice (maybe not good morally), but these listings also HEAVILY affects people who ACTUALLY sell THEIR therian stickers on Etsy. (AKA me and many other small therian bussinesses they have stolen from.)

TLDR: DO NOT buy listings like these on Etsy (or Temu), they are FILLED with stolen art. please go support the actual artists who made these designs!

if i ever find or am told about the artists that were stolen from, i will add links to their shops down here!

fl0atingtherians redbubble!!

okay again, sorry for not posting since *squints eyes* fucking March.

i think i have had so much happening in my life that it's difficult to keep up with my nonhuman side. i hope to be able to post more soon, me and my fiance and family are about to go on a trip to Texas next month so maybe i'll have some free time! (me and my fiance are going to a Garden concert!! so fucking excited man)

also, i did transfer ownership of my therian discord server due to me being super busy and not fit to run servers right now

[tanukipaws]

Hello! I hope it’s alright to ask here, but will you be restocking the plain black theta delta charms?

YES i am waiting on the restock right now :) though my shop will be on vacation mode for a lil bit!

and for those who are interested, all of the sold out therian pride keychains are also in the process of being restocked! just waiting on the manufacturer

[tanukipaws]

it's really late here but it's raining Really hard and i'm having the Biggest animalistic urges to go frolic in the rain bro

[tanukipaws]

(life update kinda)

sorry i've been so inactive omg, i had gotten sick and now i have a lot of hours at work and i also learned yesterday that i may be some form of intersex, so!! there has been a lot going on and it's been especially hard to connect to my nonhuman side considering it's winter and cold outside!

[tanukipaws]

i found this tanuki plush at target yesterday!! it honestly surprised me so much qjvdb

[tanukipaws]

BIG SHOP UPDATE - MOST of my therian pride keychains are back in stock! (YES, including lesbian! i'm so sorry lesbians /g)

i now also have just plain black therian/theta delta keychains up on my etsy!!!!

i've been waiting for those and the pride keychain restocks for a while and i'm super happy to finally have them! (reminder i also have a discord server for all my etsy updates, including voting and pings for just about everything!)

honestly i've seen a lot of people talking about it recently but what's wrong with being a p-shifter?

like i've only seen critters with psychosis call themselves "p-shifters" or "physical shifters" yet a lot of people say they're "manipulative" or something. no they just have psychosis?? (and i do too) that doesn't make them a bad person

(please correct me if i'm wrong! /gen this is just my line of thinking based on what i've been seeing recently)

[shapeshifting-stray-deactivated]

a little wrong but i see the intention (pos)

clinical zoathropy is (technically)a “delusional” belief and is just something you are born with, you are a animal/werebeast all your life.

but (most) p-shifter consider themselves non- delusional and p-shifting is something that you can learn to do, not the way they were born.

the p-shifting label is being reclaimed by people with good intentions but unfortunately did have bad manipulative people before (and some now) not all p-shifter are bad, how could a whole community be?

the main point is tho both communities have overlap with ideas and people/ beasts we are different and separate 

[tanukipaws]

OHH okay thank you so much!! i understand now! was just very confused lol

(as of posting) yesterday was my 21st birthday and i had a lovely time with some friends and fiance <3 about to go to sleep after such a big day though and i'm having just the biggest wolf shifts ever omg. not sure if it's because i also have psychosis but i can just feel huge wolf teeth growing in and the bone structure of my paws. super weird!

[tanukipaws]

me and my fiance watched the studio ghibli movie pom poko (surprisingly i just heard about it for the first time the other day) and i honestly loved it so much, it gave me big tanuki shifts and i loved seeing all the japanese folklore!! although the english dub did call them "raccoons" the whole time which is sad.. but it's okay!! amazing movie and def will watch again
