Say it with me everybody “you can’t pick your kintypes” Louder for everyone outside of the community.

Um, hello! Sorry that this isn’t relatively on-topic with what your blog is honestly about, but I just want to say that I’m terribly sorry for you, about the rude anons in this case. I don’t think you deserve those crude words, and so far, I’ve only seen nice people in this wonderful community, so I really don’t understand why people just feel negative emotions towards kin. But I’m apologetic if this was completely off-topic, but I hope you don’t let their words get to you, or any other people.

Hey there. 🙂 I appreciate you taking the time to send this and thank you for your kind words. Thankfully it isn’t all rude anons…

Different anon, by the worms picture did you mean that the question is a big can of worms, or were you answering the question as no? XD

The question is a big can of worms, anon, and I’d rather not get into it. I hate intellectual property debates XD

I was wondering, are there any blogs that so kin calls that allow psychological kin and copinglinkers, as well? I want to talk to some people who would be okay with me letting my kin out and chatting with them, but since I don’t have exactly the same experience as most kin, even though I fully respect spiritual kin and don’t think they’re invalid, that I’ll be scolded because I’m not spiritual enough, or because I RP my kintype (partly because that’s the only way I can let him out). Any advice?

You’re certainly welcome to share your views and such on this blog, anon. Other than that, I don’t know of any particular blogs. Chime in/reblog…

Do you believe that a request blog should source every single image they use (not just the art, but the photography as well)?

Can we just declare “you can’t be kin outside of your race” (and all possible variations of it) trolling and summarily dismiss it as the nonsense it is? I have a hard time anybody seriously believes that anyway. They’re just saying it to stir shit

Agreed, anon. Either that or they’re from outside the community and have no idea what they’re talking about.

old tumblr postsJune 28, 2016

in relation to being told to repress kintypes—I once saw a multiplicity blog tell someone to try and suppress one of their headmates bc they weren’t the same race as the host..which is honestly just terrible advice.

Yeah, that’s fucking *terrible* advice, especially to a multiple. As if they had control over their alters???

Don’t act like being uncomfortable with fictionkin/otherkin and being uncomfortable with factkin is the same thing, though. Like, let’s not forget that factkin shouldn’t be open about their identity FOR A REASON.

Asking with no disrespect to the fictionkin community: I’m trying to understand how someone can be fictionkin? If the character is literally made up, how can someone have memories from that life if they never existed in the first place?

I’m feeling very confused about my identity and was wondering if you could help me? I recently realized I could be fictionkin but I kinda fluctuate in and out of it. Sometimes I feel like I am them and other times I’m just myself. Is this normal???

On that post about canon calls, I just wanted to add that it can be particularly bad if youre villiankin because you may feel like you owe it to canonmates to do what they want and just take whatever shit they throw your way because you ‘deserve it’.

Very good point, anon.

Does your website include getting info from outside tumblr? I find your website quite easy to read and organised compared to some.

I like to think it does, anon! And thank you for the compliment! 🙂

Seeing all these people saying they’re afraid to be factkin makes me want to ask: is it okay to be uncomfortable about them? I wouldn’t go around harassing them, making blatant posts on why they should or shouldn’t exist, and besides being uncomfortable with them, I’m a bit indifferent to the entire thing. Is that okay?

Its okay to be uncomfortable with factkin, as long as you’re not harassing or badmouthing them. Remember too that some people are uncomfortable with fictionkin…

Factkin anon- it’s something i’d be interested in doing, but i get so anxious thinking about it because i know just admitting im factkin at all will get me in deep shit with a lot of people in the community ^^; maybe one day, when i care less or figure out a way to do it that wont call upon a bunch of hate

Hi, I’m also going “lol wait?” at personakin because hi I’m also kin from the Persona series lol. I thought it might be “I’m kin with my OC” or something tho, because that’s what a persona is. /shrugs

I think we’d be more likely to see fursona-kin 😉

I’m factkin but very very very very secretly (this is my first time admitting it at all anywhere to anyone) and i can completely understand why people uncomfortable with us, and those people being assholes isn’t helping at all. I don’t know of any places i could talk about my experiences without being judged, but tbh there’s a reason for that. Lots of reasons, which you already covered. I wish other factkin understood that too

Thank you for writing, anon. 🙂 I feel for you, I really do. Having to deal with being factkin must suck way more than being…

I’m going to be so livid if that network blog deletes because of some bad seeds in the Personakin and Factkin community. They seem really nice and made something I haven’t seen before to help the community it really boils my blood that Factkin and Personakin with their already bad reputation would think harassing someone is the proper response to someone being uncomfortable with them.

I agree with you anon, it’ll be a shame if they delete, especially because a) a nework catalog is actually pretty useful b) its probably…

idk if this is the right place to go to for something like this but I just started following this brand new blog that catalogs kin networks (networkcatalog). the problem is they’re getting harassed really hard by factkin and personakin right now and I’m scared because I think they’re low on spoons that they’ll do something bad to themself. could you and your followers send them some love maybe?

Personakin are kin of “characters” that are heavily based on real life people. For example some people are kin with characters that the video game group Achievement Hunter plays in GTA. The problem is they aren’t characters, it’s literally just a bunch of dudes playing GTA that creepy fans have turned into an AU to ship/fetishize real life people.

Thanks for the info, anon.

In response to the “how long should I wait” question, I have found that once you realize what these feelings can be called and look into one, others start appearing as if they all just waited for you to know what to call them. It’s almost chain-reaction like. Those are my 2 cents, though.

That;s true, but I’ve found that trying to ignore them once they have decided to keep poking your brain just drives you to distraction.I tried…

How long should you wait between realising you have another kintype? I already have 5 kintypes, and I’m really against the idea of having another one, although I’ve been having strong feelings for awhile now that I do have another one.

There’s no rule of thumb, really. It sounds like its something that’s on your mind so I think you should pursue it. Do some introspection…

I remember you reblogging something onto here, it was this art/comic thing that was about how someone would shift into a mix between their kintype and their current body (so, a humanoid version of their kintype) and just realized the same thing kind of happens to me, except my kintype is already humanoid. I often mentally see myself as looking like my current body, except parts of me are from my kintype (parts of my head and the ends of my limbs, mostly).

That would be this post (link) by @lizardywizard which is an awesome post. I’m glad my reblog helped you realize that!

This isn’t purely fictionkin-related, but I was thinking on the argument anti-kin make about how “all otherkin are always glorious animals, nobody’s ever a slug” and how “all fictionkin are always main characters, never somebody non-notable” and… it occurred to me that most people who ARE kin of, say, a slug, aren’t going to be vocal about it. It’s embarrassing to admit. People mock us for being “cool” stuff; imagine how much worse they’d treat us if we admitted being a chicken or something.

This is absolutely true, anon. Also, the people who say that always forget that there ARE people who are things like snails, goblins, unseen characters,…
