I SEE NO GODS UP HERE, OTHER THAN ME

🇬🇧 THIS BLOG IS GENERALLY 18+. You can follow if you're 16+, but make sure you've got the tags '#nsft' and '#minors dni' blacklisted. Cover both of our asses if the good folks at HQ get trigger happy.

✱ He/him, or wer/wol/weres/wereself if you're feeling fancy.

Werewolf, Shapeshifter, Clado-Black Dog, walking suit of armour with a vendetta. You probably haven't heard of me.

>>> Welcome.

Local beachcombing werewolf. Basically just a blog to have all of my alterhuman stuff in one place before I make a dreamwidth. Also so people have an actual URL to tag in stuff. Possibly also for archival purposes.

Base blog is @exojaws. Trying to keep them semi-separate as that's front-facing and my alterhumanity is a little more private.

My tag organisation list is here. It needs an update.

On occasion (i.e. if I get an ask), I'll make a flag or term for experiences like gender and orientation that are affected by alterhumanity. An old blog of mine is @liomdog, which I might revive if things go well and I can find it in me to excavate all that bullshit.

No DNI, but the block button is my friend. I genuinely don't give a fuck. Curate your online experience.

JE VOIS AUCUN DIEU ICI-HAUT, SAUF QUE MOI

🇫🇷 EN GÉNÉRAL CE BLOG EST 18+. Vous pouvez me suivre si vous avez plus de 16 ans, mais vous devez bloquer les tags '#nsft' et '#minors dni'. C'est pour nous tous et notre calme si les modérateurs veulent faire une autre répression. Merci!

Si ce n'est pas évident, je ne parle pas couramment le français. Je vais faire de mon mieux, mais je dois encore utiliser les apps de traduction. Mais svp parle en français avec moi! Je veux améliorer.

✱ Il/le/lui

Loup-garou, métamorphe, cuirasse vivant. En anglais il y a le terme "cladotherian", qui signifie l'identification avec tous les animaux dans un clade. Je ne sais pas si il y a une autre phrase en français pour ce chose, alors... voilà. C'est moi. J'identifie avec tous les Chiens Noirs.

>>> Bienvenue.

Loup-garou de la plage. Un blog au sujet alterhumaine pour mes pensées et écriture avant de créer un Dreamwidth.

Mon blog de socle est @exojaws. Je veux les garder demi-séparés, car mon alterhumanité est plus privé et ce blog est plus public.

Je n'ai pas une liste de ne pas interagir (est-ce que c'est la phrase en français?), mais le bouton de bloquer est mon ami. Je m'en fiche - conserver vos aliments à votre plaisir.

Cette section est encore un travail en marche, merci pour votre patience!

Zine submissions for Draconity 2025 close in one month

There's still time to get your writing or artwork featured in our upcoming draconic zine for alterhumans and nonhumans!

Let’s come together to create something for the community. Whether you got scales, feathers, fur or otherwise we want to hear from you. What does draconity mean to you?

Submissions Must Fit the Thematic Criteria of:

About draconity / being draconic

That’s it! Go wild.

We will not be policing what is or is not considered “dragon.” If you self-identify as draconic you count! No portfolio or prior zine experience is needed to be included either.

Info post here!

In my country... CREATURES HAVE DECIDED TO CREATE AN NATIONAL ALTERHUMAN MONTHLY NEWSPAPER!!!!!!

(I live in France so I'm sorry for those who aren't here, but it's still a good project idea for a motivated creature!)

For French speakers (and others who know how to use subtitles), see the video on YouTube channel "la terre des kins" for more information. [no forcing]

Drink water(it is important) and see you next time!

[weywulf]

Je veux parler (et écrire) plus souvent en français, alors je pense que je vais créer plus d'ecriture au sujet d'alter-humanité. Peut-être je peux faire un répertoire multilingue entre français et anglais pour les éleves de français alterhumaines. (Et aussi pour moi mdr Je suis mauvais pour utiliser les moteurs de recherche en français)

Aussi maintenant j'ai un tag pour mes postes français ↓ en futur je vais utiliser ça pour tous mes publications qui sont dans deux langues (ou seulement en français, naturellement). C'est tard maintenant, alors je vais chercher des tags alterhumaines un jour de plus...

En attendant, est-ce qu'il y a quelques de mes abonné.es qui parlent ou étudient le français?

have you ever heard of primal, the old therian/furry conlang? do you have any thoughts on it?

I hadn't until now and I'm shocked to see that it was created in 2001. Those are the old days! There seems to be very little information left on the internet. The website is down, but, more importantly, the url itself has been excluded from the internet archive, so you can't pull it up on the Wayback Machine. That's really a shame. It means that the owner of the site has requested specifically that the url be excluded. Now, that's the top level domain, so it may be that there are other things on the site the owner didn't want archived, rather than the language specifically, but the upshot is we can't seem to get direct information on the language.

It did have a Langmaker profile, so it looks like the wider conlang community was aware of it in one form or another.

Hey, BlueSky to the rescue! Apparently there's another internet archive called Archive Today and they have three snapshots. Here's one. Unfortunately the links on that page no longer resolve.

So yeah, there's not much to say. From the example on the page on the furry wiki it doesn't look particularly groundbreaking, but it's certainly an older conlang worth recovering, if at all possible. Perhaps we can start here.

Is there anyone around that ever purchased a copy of the grammar? They were selling physical copies at the time. Maybe we can get something from the language and put it up on Fiat Lingua.

UPDATE: Before I even posted this someone pointed out that the site had been rescued, but in download format. You can find it here.

[deviltriigger]

werewolves and werebeasts! I’ve always considered myself a werewolf therian despite it technically being fictional and I wanted to see how werewolves categorise themselves within the community

PLEASE reblog if you vote for a larger sample size

(do not count other animal types in ‘multiple’ im looking specifically for werebeasts here)

What ‘type’ are you as a werebeast?

therian werebeast

otherkin werebeast

nonhuman werebeast, all the time

nonhuman werebeast, only when I’ve transformed

alterhuman, otherhearted etc werebeast

other/multiple of these (in tags)

[sable-dream]

this might be a bad take, however: The reason why therianthropy feels 'fake' and 'like a trend' is not because of masks/tails/quadrobics it's because of the way content creation and social media erode identities into an easily marketable and consumable list of things to do.

[prokopetz]

Yes, you're right, "I'd kill for you – please, ask me to kill for you" is a fun relationship dynamic, but where's the love for the classic attack-dog power dynamic reversal? I'd have thought Tumblr would be all over that one, too. The old "I'll kill for you – and kill, and kill, and kill, if needs be – but first you have to tell me exactly what it is you want. You are not permitted moral distance. Tell me what you need from me and admit your soft hands are just as bloody as mine. Say it. Say it."
