“Otherkin”?

This faith called “Otherkin” made the front page of Kuro5hin today. I must admit that I, like probably every other science-fiction fan on the planet, occasionally play with the idea that if I just think harder I can really make that pencil on the desk move with my mind (heck, there’s a training course you can take to teach you how), or that I’m really the malevolent god Hastur. Or whatever.

But building a faith around it? Well, no accounting for taste, but stuff like this is one of the reasons I avoid religion.
