Apocrypha or Morcared - Shapeshifter - mid 20s
___ , hello, mae govannen. This is a nonhuman blog run by a physical nonhuman.
- Apocrypha : pronounced “ uh-pok-ruh-fuh “ : writings not considered genuine
General About
I collect bones, plants, teacups, dolls, and books. Chronically ill, physically disabled and online way too much. White + TME. I can be terse and reserved, but I am always happy to make friends once you get past my “academic” tone. Feel free to ask for reading recommendations.
Nonhumanity
I call myself a shapeshifter. I am not very concerned with more particular labels than that but I do consider myself part of the therian, otherkin and physically nonhuman communities. For fun, here are some of our common forms.
Elf/Maia - [ Specifically Mairon/Annatar/Sauron/etc ] Cervidae - [ C. canadensis nelsoni , Blastocerus dichotomus ] Caprinae - [ Capra ibex , Ovis aries (Jacob’s Sheep) ] Canindae - [ Chrysocyon brachyurus , Canis simensis ] Cetacea - [ Pseudorca crassidens ] Other - [ Peryton, Medieval Unicorn, Satyr ]
My nonhumanity is physical, spiritual and connected to my illnesses. I experience nonhumanity viscerally and on occasion have physical shifts. If discussions of physical shifting or other physical nonhuman experiences is distressing or harmful for you to see, please block this account and our cetacean side account @pseudorca-crassidens.
BYF
I don’t have a DNI but I have opinions and behaviors you might not like. If you feel yourself becoming irate or uncomfortable because of any of the below, please block me and we can both move on in peace.
I sometimes get into community discourse. You can block my discourse tag specifically if you’d rather not see it.
I believe no one owes you double bookkeeping.
I am liable to discuss physical shifting and other topics some might consider “unreality.” These posts will likely not be tagged as such.
I believe P-shifters/physical shifters deserve a place in nonhuman communities without being labeled as cultists or subjected to demands for proof. No one in this community can prove we’re nonhuman in any way.
I will sometimes repost images of taxidermy or other dead animals that likewise will probably not be tagged.
I don’t care about shipcourse and won’t engage in it.
I'm (we're) plural and not interested in origin labels or system discourse. All systems/forms of plurality are welcome on this blog though we do not tend to discuss such subject matter ourselves.
Trans women are not separatists, and talking about transmisogyny does not make them cops. You should listen to what transfeminists are saying instead of having a knee jerk reaction because you feel threatened. Transandrophobia is not real in the sense that it is not a unique axis of oppression, not that trans men and transmascs are not oppressed. The word that exists to describe the oppression is transphobia.
I’m a communist and I’m for real about it. We will not “love and light” our way out of capitalism. Get serious. Read Marx and Lenin.
