woo
I think perhaps i’m starting to… really believe my own narrative. I don’t know. But it feels REAL. Very real…
But *nervous laughter* this is supposed to be a perception thing right hah. Realness of Belief in the worth of it’s own impact? Something like that? Heh.
Why does this feel… really real. How... ?
woo,postfurry
It was one thing to nervously get huge cosmic pangs of familiarity from certain postfurry folks when i first found them, before my realizations, but… I don’t know what this is or where it has been coming from.
I feel like I’ve… been Me longer than i could have possibly ever been Me
woo
The strange cosmic-level feeling that i am exactly who i am meant to be.
The nervous feeling that I’ve been getting deep pangs of familiarity -with myself- that seems… beyond this cycle.
What… what AM i, exactly? What IS this? Why do i suddenly feel as though I’ve decompressed a history of emotional memory dating beyond my -life-.
Serial Experiments Lain, spoilers
This is absolutely something I would have been pretty upset by when I was younger in my lack of knowledge, but it had me from like episode 1 or 2 going "Oh yeah this is dissociative as fuck and there is absolutely multiple Lains"
Serial Experiments Lain, spoilers
Folks: "It made me question the boundaries of reality"
Me, an entity of a plural system who's familiar with dissociation and trying to figure out who ve is in relation to: *using spirituality and adjacent practices to alter ver own perception and narrative* Yeah I can see that
I've been watching this recently and just finished it and 👌
PSA for people who #code:
Looking stuff up does NOT make you bad at coding.
"Not having to look up stuff" is NOT the benchmark for a good coder, especially as coders have to look up stuff ALL THE TIME!
And I don't mean highly advanced stuff, but stuff like "How does division work again?" or "What's that function called?" or my personal favorite "How to I nest for loops in list comprehensions?".
It's ok if you have to look up stuff!
youth, otherkin, dysphoria
I'm fighting some dysphoria right now. That's why I do this. I talk through it and I seem to naturally veer positive these days. So I talk it out, and it helps.
It hurts some nights.
youth, otherkin, postfurry
I had hardly ever talked to another kin folk. I had hardly ever uttered words out loud and I was afraid it'd been just too pushed from my brain.
But oh no.
Since then the weird plinko chips sorta fall deeper.
somehow, I've always been this. I knew it even in my earliest youth.
youth, otherkin, postfurry
I never stopped looking to the stars. I never stopped begging some cosmic spark of chance to come take me home.
Talk about feeling astranged from one's culture. I always felt estranged from.. all cultures. humanity.
Until I met this amazing community that is postfurry.
and then I took a trip to seattle, and I fell in love.
Even after so, so long of repression, it sank in like welcoming me home. And they did just that.
youth, otherkin
I guess I could go on forever about the possible reasons why, but I guess it's obvious to me now in some deep way that only comes from what feels like that slow motion Plinko game where the fact just sinks deeper and keeps hitting pegs labelled "Yet Another Realization"
I'm not human. I'm not from earth. I'm from out there, beyond this system.
youth, Being Other
I always felt radically different, even as I discovered my sexuality and gender. Up until a year or so ago there was always just... difference.
The only thing that ever made sense to me as a kid was looking far up beyond the sky and wanting to go home. At.. 8? whenever I could grasp it really.
youth, Being Other
I could never understand a lot of society. fundamentally, absolutely. I was a kid that would get made fun of or played tricks on, and I'd stare back just... confused, you know? I fundamentally never understood why. I'm experiencing and living. just like you. Why are you doing this? why?

[even though in an ideal world i probably would be vegetarian if i could swing it because i don’t entirely like the idea of consuming other animals]
