OTHERBLOODED - Coining post.
Otherblooded is a less problematic replacement for the offensive term “mutant”.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF PEOPLE CALLING SEA DWELLERS "FISH"?
I believe it is offensive. Just because they have harmed us, doesn’t mean we should use the same tactics against them. That is like calling a farmer a cow for cutting the grass.
FOWLO ME @imhrosny

Does anybody remember the base of our horns being quite itchy? It would . flake? I suppose? Old horn fragments chipping off as the new permanent part grew in. I remember it was nice to get the base of your horns scratched or “preened” basically.
This.. from my old blog.
Tr9lls are amazing and all, especially transTr9lls, 6ut if y9u are g9ing t9 j9in us, y9u sh9uld educate y9urself 9n 9ur hist9ry and culture, al9ng with p9litics and just av9id using slurs. Als9, enf9rcing caste system prejudice is a quick way t9 get 6l9cked. It is a h9rri6le thing that leaves many 9f 9ur kind suffering everyday.
What do you do to feel euphoric in your blood color? Do you have any tips? I feel weird and clockable wearing my symbol in my desired color, and have been mocked before for "that Homestuck shit", so if you have anything a little less overt I'd really appreciate it.
Also, what was your exploration like? I was and am afraid to be hemophobic, both internally and to trolls of other castes. How did you discover you were pink blooded?

Hm! I supposed smaller things like jewelry or maybe clothes or even a blog theme in your desired color could help? As our clothes typically correspond with the color of our blood. As does our internet presence (unless hiding it). makeup, can help. Also! Try and look into the specific caste type and any differences they had from the other castes. Try to mimic those things! Maybe make a blog?
It was.. scary, to say the least. I had always prided myself on being otherblooded, it felt like i was throwing it all alway. I understand the fear of being hemophobic, but the best way to overcome that is to be open to correction and learning. That’s the best anybody can do. It was quite a easy thing actually, I remember once, letting a friend dress me up head to toe in fancy clothes, it was mostly pink because she didn’t have.. red. But, I liked it. I’ve decided since then that I felt pink blooded, and I wasn’t going to give that up.
