@budgiebin@snouts.online my bad
re: Cultural Appropriation (Native American) (Help!)
@budgiebin@snouts.online I mean yeah but not on Purpose or anything?
And when it Was on purpose it was like 'Shit, I need to make sure I get this right and don't say or do anything Impolite'.
Cultural Appropriation (Native American) (Help!)
Guys, I'm having a bit of trouble here and if I had more time I'd go and talk to the medicine man we know Directly.
This has been happening for a while, and because I was chasing being an Engineer, it was a non-issue.
But I've been having to be a Shaman more and more, been trying to be as Pantheistic and Pluralistic as possible, and most of it is Fine, except one troubling thing.
I'm Irish and Polish, living in Massachusetts. I never questioned why native american spirits could talk to me. I figured I was basically in Their living room, so I minded my manners.
This year though, I had several supernatural experiences that could only be Native magic. I've been Around the real thing, see above with the Medicine Man.
So like, uh... Is there like a Native American version of a Janissary? Because working Celtic magic is Way harder than doing the same thing with Native magic.
I dunno, maybe you get Fae-Born somewhere way too far from the Mounds, they have to find locally-sourced Fae for you. In my case, that'd be the Puckwudgie.
And Tohri was always kinda "Ox, but Dragon"
...Doesn't take a lotta imagination to think if you dropped a Buffalo spirit into an Irish kid's head, he'd get interpreted as a wingless dragon.
@photophoregirl@octodon.social If you need a bunch of Crystals and shit to pull off magic, git Gud.
And Agreed on the Homeopathy, anti-vax and all that. I only get mystical after I've read what Science has to say, and found their explanation lacking Detail.
Gender shitpost
Currently feeling very boyish herm captured by the Korps or some TF villianess who gets the usual treatment.
And 4 hours later they check back up on me, I'm back in my original shape, and I'm using the pink headset to get Uber Eats delivery.
@sashakovich Props, we always set ours off so we just keep it greasy. XD
re: Why are men
@sashakovich Well, I think the next step is that we actually have to get these guys to Fix Their Behavior.
Like I'm AMAB, but that's just On Paper. There's nothing stopping these guys from being Reasonable Human Beings, except maybe Testosterone.
@sashakovich Also, big mood, I've been driven out of Jobs because the men were too awful.
re: MH (?/+)
@Thaminga Keri: Thank you! We weren't totally sure an alter could Subfracture, but here we are.
Good news is, Tohri's already been upgraded to high-functioning median system, and just gets doublethink in some circumstances.
We're getting close to it being down to Quirkiness.

My father taught me that men would treat me badly, and that I would be better served to pursue the things that interest me and ignore the men as best I could. In many ways, I have - my interests are all over the map in terms of traditional "girl" and "boy" interests. But I've still been driven out of places because the men were too awful.
So dudes, every wistful reflection on the people who made open source into what it currently is? There's a woman taking notes about whether you're safe.
re: MH (?/+)
@LexYeen@snouts.online Ur-Tohri: Helps I took a look at my Twin who's been running things, slumped, and felt rotten, then when I came around to finding out that Keri's one of the Good guys now, I got right up on the Mad Science rack and told her to hit me with as many lightning bolts as it TOOK to get me looking like Him.
re: MH (?/+)
@LexYeen@snouts.online Well it's like finding out the main bearings are shot.
But you already knew that, you've done mains on this model five times already. Just not This Particular Serial number and Year.
Fun thing. When you've taken a thousand hours to build a perfected prototype, doing it Again, even on a different but fundamentally similar machine, or with a modified design, takes a Quarter of the time, and results in a Superior Product.
So, we've got a bone stock '02 truck with a blown engine, so what? Haul that old pushrod V8 outta there and dust off that Big Block with the double cams and blower we've been tinkering with on the stand for a year and a half.

So, a bunch of my issues ended up being caused by a whole sector of my primary personality (Tohri) coming back from the dead, and staggering around in the world of 2019, having last been active in 2003 or so.
"Once in a Lifetime" by the Talking Heads doesn't Begin to cover this one. He has a bunch of the pieces we've been Missing from Tohri proper. And he wants to re-integrate, but keeps running up against Steve Rogers level culture shocks.
Some are Funny, some are Illuminating, and some are Tragic. The cool part is that most of His issues and neuroses are all about getting abused for compulsive autistic behaviors. We know how to Fix That.
The rest is just re-wiring the self-esteem circuits away from 'Authority Approval and Support' and towards 'Peer and Self Approval and Support'. Poor fucker just wanted his mom and dad to understand and love him. :/
@thatwingsy@snouts.online I'm not really gonna go looking for any more, I'm uh... Happy to share my stuff with the folks here but TBH I just encountered more of that macho alpha male shit there than anywhere else in furry and I'm straight up allergic to it now.
@thatwingsy@snouts.online They were defending Milo Yannawhateverpolis and I'd been sick of their 'Good Ole Boys' act.
Just left the autofurs Telegram Group because they're a bunch of Right wing, Bootlicking fucks.
