"Grilling"

Krin 🌐

Does anyone remember "grilling"? It seemed to be popular in my Amino days back in 2019, but I haven't found any resources as of recently to use to grill myself with new 'types I am questioning... If anyone is familiar with the concept, could you leave some of those questions for me to read over and think about? 

If it is called something different now (or even previously), could you let me know what as well? So I can dig up more questions to sit on..

Wow it's been a while, I'm out of practice. 

I guess the first question would be what are you actually experiencing and why do you think it might be a kintype? 

Has there been anything recent that might have triggered it?  Exposure to new media, etc? 

Have you ever previously felt drawn to this thing in any way? When and how? 

Does it stay somewhat constant over time? I'm not saying no variation, but as Philip K Dick put it,  "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."  I think that's a reasonable standard to apply to something we accept as a core feature of our identity, of who and what we are. Does it actually persist in any real sense? 

I'll stop there for now.

How did you come to your conclusion as to your 'kin type?

What sort of research did you do?

How long have you felt this way?

Gods, I remember this so very well from forums I used to be on. I partook in it as a teenager, thinking it would help people truly feel confident in their identity but later on I was mostly hit with “who are you to question me?!”. Let’s see:

What makes you sure that what you’re experiencing is a kintype and not a feeling, desire or connection?
