gothiccharmschool: Today [April 20] is Robert Smith’s birthday! And Earth Day, so KEXP.org is playing Goth music ALL DAY. They’re calling it Goths In Trees day! According to Wikipedia his birthday is tomorrow…? (and there was me being weirded out about Bob and Adolf Hitler having the same birthday!) Also, Earth Day is the 22nd… (Perhaps this programming is “in honor...

If you like my posts...
rootandrock: Go out one night under a clear sky and a visible moon. Even if it’s just your balcony, even if it’s your suburban back yard. Even if it’s the glorious mountain-top camp-sight you visited as a kid. And lay under the dark sky until the sun rises. And keep laying there.

otherkin safe space/community center/whatever
I’m having a hard time with some of the things you’re saying here, Jarin. I am hearing anger and snideness that seem to me to be out of proportion to the idea, and condescension.

on terms →
jarandhel: silveth: I want to have a general/group term (without having to get way down into specifics) that will make people assume I am, say, some kind of magical fantasy critter. “Otherkin” used to do that and now it doesn’t. There’s still “faeborn” or “sayuneldi”… I’d go with the former, really. As a term for “two-legged point-ears”, maybe faeborn, although I think the...

A domain for Otherkin Gather Network?
chasingcaribou: A very kind soul offered to donate a top level domain to this, so, I was hoping for some suggestions.  OtherkinGathers.com is one such?  Something Google friendly, would be best. (: I wonder if “gather”, though the term most used within the otherkin community*, is perhaps obscure to people who don’t already know the lingo. I mean, what terms do we think...

Chasing Caribou: silveth: Otherkin Gather... →
(Sorry for the nonstandard formatting here. The reblogging seems to be cutting out all of chasingcaribou’s text, I guess because the original post was a link post and not a text post? I dunno. Anyway, did my best to construct a quoted-email style here.) chasingcaribou said: The reality is actually that I cannot afford to register another domain for something that might not even really be...
