Upon reading a variety of blogs that ranged from silly to offensive in the past... whenever blogging became a thing, I decided to post:

A. The sort of blog titles I see. (Noting that they aren't always as horrible as the title implies - although really, you still shouldn't start off with your readers ready to punch you in the face.)

B. The sort of blogs/articles I've read.

This is image heavy.

LOL - this is the best. (And accurate!)

Off to google ghostkin because that caught my curiosity ... LOL

ETA: Welp. You're right. That's a thing. Not even sure what to make of it but it's a thing. XD

The first one was totally inspired by that xoJane shitshow, wasn't it? :p

Of course not! :P

(Yes. It totally was. Also the last one a bit, since apparently that blogger's written things like that before, which makes me think she just likes the attention.)

Yep. Apparently it's an offshoot of 'otherkin' - people who think they're part fairy, dragon or other mythological creatures. Sounds like something from a movie or a book to me but these people seem to really believe it.

Yeah, that's what I was referring to with ghostkin... I can't believe even that's a thing. Though apparently it's not so much that they think they're half-ghost as it is they think they can take on the characteristics of other ___ kin. Or something like that, I didn't devote too much time to researching it, as you can imagine.

I thought it was a joke at first. I mean - I guess if they're not hurting anything but it seems ... bizarre to me. I can't wrap my mind around being half of a ghost or dragon or whatever.

I hate these the most. And they always feature comment sections where people try to use common sense and actual facts and get dogpiled with angry comments full of conspiracy theories and questionable citations.

I know, right?!

And you aren't even allowed to have a side-point when you do agree. That drives me nuts as well.
