i know i’m a human but i feel like an animal. a human animal. i’ve never gotten on with my peers, i’ve never understood why we live the way we do or why we treat each other this way. we’re supposed be a community. i do not belong in this solitary world.

thank you! i love sociology ehe. and also ik humans are animals, but we often hold ourselves to this “civilized” standard- which isn’t actually civilized at all. what i’ve seen of “civilization,” it just means not caring for others, consumption, and destroying the earth. i just feel like an outsider.

oh sweet, I’m a domestic cat 🐾 it’s not something I take super seriously but it’s fun to give myself permission to do a little harmless “magical thinking” definitely a useful tool for coping with that sense of alienation amongst humans imo, + in my case it’s a playful way to avoid needlessly beating myself up over chronic illness-related issues

as in like, “of course I frequently wind up needing a midday nap, I’m a cat 🛌”
