This is a thread to post anecdotes, laughable Carrds, strange posts and so on of the kin community.

This is one of the most bizarre things I've seen. I would like to believe this is some regression weirdo rather than a literal 11 year old with it/its pronouns and thinks they are a toilet ghost

this is definitely some age regression weirdo. The baby talk is so fucking creepy. Idek who that character pictured is but I've noticed all the freakiest fucked up weirdos are into him

Probably the former. I always think it'd be funny to see these people seethe if someone reported them and got them banned from Twitter or Tumblr for "being underage", but that'd require actually knowing them on a different platform.

From my experience in stan communities, those are most definitely tweens with neglectful parents.

I remember back in the day when it was always people who legitimately believed they were the "reincarnation" of anime characters or whatever. Now it seems like "kins" are just characters that people relate to (or at least I see people posting about them like that). Like they don't actually believe they are the character.
I guess I'm just old, but it was really weird when I started seeing younger people posting about "kins" on instagram. It seems like it's totally different from what it used to be (ie the final fantasy house and shit) and viewed as normal-ish? That leads me to believe it's not longer viewed as something as intense.

Anyway, feel free to school my old ass if I missed something. It seemed to come out of nowhere recently.

Where did you get that from? That's exactly what it was all about when I was still on tumblr, you had brats calling each other out saying "I'm kin with Komaeda which means that I'm him/his real life version/his reincarnation and this one tumblr user is also kin with him and it's identity theft!!" on a regular basis at some point and it was just ridiculous. I did see way after that people using the term "kin" sarcastically just like you said but it was only sarcasm to make fun of how absurd this is.

I guess it's kinda like the word weaboo, it came from the word "wapanese" and was about white people being otaku and wanting to be Japanese just because they're obsessed with anime and jpop, people started using it as a hyperbole or for sarcasm and it just means "someone from the west who likes anime and jpop", who knows

oh god a while ago i was posting a lot of spongebob yaoi on my tumblr (it wasn't even tagged ffs) and this girl was kept messaging me saying that she was squidward-kin and i was making her uncomfortable and asking me to stop (i checked her blog and actually listed squidward as one of her kins). i ignored the messages and for like two weeks straight she'd send me passive aggressive messages like "okay good to know my opinion doesn't matter lol" "guess i should fuck off then hahaha" before she finally got the hint that i wasn't gonna respond to her so she could play victim

i still randomly post squidward porn in case if she's following me but this was like 8 months ago so i doubt it, people are so fucking weird

i just realized this sounds like a shitpost but i swear to god it's not

Could you post her messages? Even if you censor the name, just picturing how the conversation went is making me kek.

Isn't that criedwolves/Oliver trans "bounding" with a Jojo character or something?

Also I remember a few years ago I stumbled upon a fat girl on Tumblr who pretended to be Misa Amane reincarnation

Nayrt but when I lurked tumblr half a decade ago I only saw the "past life/alternate universe" kinnies too. But most recently I've seen a lot of more casual kids on Instagram who basically take it like >>595266 said.

(Somebody explaining it as, "a kin is a character you personally identify with and relate to…" So if this had been the definition when I was a teenager, I would have been kinning edgy anime characters left and right lmao)
