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.

Not very active on here atm with work + big life changes + random illness flares. Feel free to reach out if you want my discord or whatever. Hopefully I’ll be able to be around more soon.

arcanes tepid liberal politics of colonial apologia is awful but mostly made up of tired beats i am long since numb to—what made me genuinely angry enough to quit watching entirely was the show decisively taking the position that viktor should have just sucked it up and died from his illness instead of Going Too Far and Playing God

Scientists have found that if you get 8 hours of sleep and are still tired during the day it’s because your soul is cursed and your body doesn’t think you deserve happiness. There is no cure or treatment

Does anyone have a reason for why plurality is included under the alterhuman umbrella that doesn’t a) verge into ableism/saneism or b) define “normative human experience” so narrowly or broadly as to be completely meaningless

Annoying (side?)effect I experience of the whole nonhumanity thing is occasionally becoming overwhelmed by disgust at regular human things I have to do or see. I try not to pay the feelings much mind but sometimes they make things difficult. No one wants to feel revolted by brushing their hair.

People on this site cannot stop equating the material conditions with the analysis of them. “You’re equating being a woman with suffering” you mean misogyny??? You mean they’re talking about misogyny??

while im on the topic of antikin behavior can we pleaseeee stop acting like antikin discrimination by itself is to the same level of discrimination based on race or gender or ability. like no actually antikin discrimination is not the same as racism, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, ableism, and the systematic oppression of groups that has been ingrained our society since the beginning of fucking time. yeah, kinnie is a hurtful word but stop acting like it's a word on the same level as fucking racial slurs. yes, it hurts when people are antikin, but it is not the same as systematic oppression. most of yall are apart of other marginalized groups so i would hope you would understand this yet somehow yall dont! yall grasp for straws for any way to be viewed as marginalized bc in yalls eyes being marginalized is another point in ur book for being seen as cool on tumblr. if you really want things to get better for otherkin, stop focusing on dumb shit and start actually reading theory and learning how to apply it to the community. a lot of yall run on "vibes-based" politics! anybody saying "umm this group isn't actually as oppressed as this group" is seen as a personal attack and a statement saying "this group isn't actually oppressed" which is just like. not the same fucking sentence at all. seriously, i know a lot of yall didn't learn shit beyond what your teachers taught you in middle school about being nice to others but if yall want things to get better for otherkin, stop dicking around and go actually read some theory by real activists that talks about liberation of groups that have been oppressed for hundreds to thousands of years. maybe apply some of their thinking to our own liberation! and maybe figure out how to actually acknowledge who is more oppressed than you without it being seen as a personal attack on you because if you can't cope with that your activism is worthless, because if you can't figure out how to help those who are less fortunate than you then it is not actual liberation in the long run that will help everyone, ur just trying to help urself.
