Can I Please Have An Cottagecore Alienkin Moodboard

I selfship with Zero not in a pedo way but in a "we're besties and we solve jigsaw puzzles and go to escape rooms and do other nerdy shit together" way

this clip makes me so emotional. i feel like this sometimes, at night especially. That the whole wide world may swallow me whole. That i’m wide-eyed in the face of god. that I’m not a victim of smallness but rather its loving disciple.

I think this type of hierarchical thinking is the same reason people look down on angelkind, divinekind and technologically advanced alienkind, because they interpret these identities as an excuse to say "haha I'm better than you!" I'm not your superior bro I'm just chilling

I feel like the reason as to why many therians (mainly on apps such as TikTok) exclude those who identify as animals more strongly, or are fully animals, is because of their inherent belief which is basically "human > animal". From birth, they have been taught that man is above animal, and that reducing oneself to an animal is inherently portraying yourself as less. Many of them, consciously or not, believe that it is an insult to refer to others as animals, and still regain big portions of their humanity—just because, in the end, they believe that animals are lesser in intelligence than man, therefore considering yourself an animal is making oneself lesser than human, therefore inferior. Of course, I do not share that belief. As an animal, I hold the opinion that we are all equal on Earth's soil. It doesn't matter who dominates—as land can't be owned by any being. I wholeheartedly disagree with things like "human superiority" or the belief that "man was meant to rule the Earth". Of course, humans are animals too. However, over the years of evolution, they have separated themselves from the labels of "animals" and "mammals"—because they believed themselves to be above those. And, that brings us to why many therians, young or not, look down on those who identify more strongly as animals, or are completely animals. In the end, they may feel some superiority over those beings, because they think that since they're still human, they are the superior beings. Of course, that is all merely speculation—still, even if their lack of acceptance is due to not being educated on the matter, it still comes down to the belief that other humans have ingrained in them. That "man is superior to animal". It's a belief that has been drilled into the minds of humans for generations, therefore separating them from a connection with animals, and the connection with Earth herself. They subconsciously look down on animals, and those who identify as animals on a deeper level. It's a sad thing, since now many humans are beyond saving—as many have completely turned on mother earth, and are now destroying her.

I do hope that at some point, humanity will open their eyes, and realize that we are all as sacred as the soil—thus proving that "inferiority" and "superiority" doesn't exist in terms of who should be allowed to roam the earth, and who should perish. Of course, humans still remain on top of the food chain, since in the end one thing that is natural is the existence of predators and prey. However, humanity has exploited their own capabilities, turning their role as a natural predator into the role of artificial destroyers, those who barely follow the laws of nature anymore.

Hopefully, those who hold all the control will be eradicated, and humanity will once again reunite with mother Earth. I am happy seeing so many people take actions nowadays, helping the planet to the best of their abilities. It gives me a light of hope.

Please, if you are a human, do go out once in a while. Pick up some trash, and gaze at the sun. Breathe in the air, and realize that as long as you love and care for her, mother Earth will love and care for you as well. On the planet's soil we are all equal.

I want to run, but with my own legs. Human legs feel so clunky. And I need to CLIMB. frick :( I miss those jungle gyms what we had as kids. The need to climb and hang and traverse elevated areas is strong

I really thought that keeping my claws sharp would help me climb better 😭

All they did was break and get in the way

This was me 2day

let's glow serenely with mama
