Quite honestly, otherkin identities make no sense to me. I have no idea how a person comes to realize they identify as a vampire, werewolf, or any other identity. I have no idea what it’s like to identify as any of those. Same goes for multiple systems (or multiples… I’ve been bitched out for…
-Today I had a very deep conversation with my close friend and partner about sex workers, their mental health, and their rights. They brought up many points that inspired me to think further about some issues, and so I decided to do some research when I got home. Unfortunately, sex work advocacy…

There are many things in life that don’t go as planned. One is anything to do with animals. The other is illness. Put the two together and you have all the ingredients for a panic attack, an ulcer and an inability to envision anything but the worst.
I have five tiny kittens living in my…
This was written in response to a FetLife post. The poster was wondering why no one was responding to his profile or his entreaties to be invited to parties.
You want to meet a girl that you can explore your kinky side with. That’s wonderful.
Let me ask you something:
- Do you have a…
lothie asked: As of right now, I'm not aware of those responses, but knowing some of the people I do, I don't doubt that those sorts of things were said, so I do apologize for that. As for the frustration it's not really that bad, nor really that much aimed at you as I know there's plenty more people in the world with the same name, lol. I hope you have a nice day today~
Thank you, you too.
lothie asked: I feel like what you posted was a bit overly-hostile towards me. My original comment about it all was that I was amused; I didn't know if you knew about me until then, and I was just making a lighthearted statement about how I couldn't use my name. I never said it was unfair, and I've never asked nor told you to stop using the name so I'd appreciate if you weren't putting words in my mouth, please? And finally, my name actually is Lothie. =/
Also, incase you were wondering, I've changed this username temporarily because I was being stalked and harassed by someone, so I had to change things around to get them off my back.
I probably would have taken it less seriously if I hadn’t seen one or more responses indicating that you should kill me. It’s hard for me to have a sense of humor about that, as an abuse survivor, but I s’pose I should. :-/
At any rate, I’m sorry for my reaction and also, sorry for your frustration that I’ve grabbed the name pretty much everywhere…it’s not my birth name but it IS what everyone calls me.
So I noticed that the girl at http://lothie.tumblr.com complained that she can’t use the name Lothie on a lot of sites because I grabbed it first, and it’s unfair that I’m using her name.
I’ve been using this name since before she was born; I started using it in 1981. So um…sorry, but I’ll keep on using it. I’ll probably still be using it after she reinvents herself as something else, since I’m sure it’s not the name on HER birth certificate either.
Sheesh.
Love is never in vain.
You never step in the same river twice.
I know what it feels like to be denied like Peter denied Jesus. It hurts, a hell of a lot, to be cut dead like that, to be essentially told that something you’ve depended on, like the sun rising, was all in your mind…even if you’re pretty sure that that’s not really the case, and the denial is really a lie, a self denial as well as a denial of you. But it’s kind of funny to hope you’re being lied to, isn’t it?
It’s just another one of those things to let go of. Remember the love, but forget the hurt.
Release. Release. Release.
