And on that note: happy international asexuality day!

I find it curious, as an ace person that there is a joke related to cakes because my hobby is baking and pastries.

I should have taken it as some sign about me long time ago 😅

garlic bread to share to your aspec friends :)

Aspec representation is important because kids are still told in health class that everyone feels attraction

Aspec representation is important because somewhere in the world there’s a 12 year old crying because they feel broken

Aspec representation is important because I still get told “that’s not real” when I come out

Aspec representation is important because people still think the A in LGBTQIA+ stands for ally

Aspec representation is important because everyone deserves to see someone like them on screen

Aspec representation is important because people still think that asexual and aromantic are the same thing

Aspec representation is important

friendship is both demanded and dismissed. you HAVE to have friends otherwise you are a 'loser', but also you are not supposed to care THAT much about your friends they are 'just' friends. you HAVE to want friends otherwise something is wrong with you, but also when you find a lover you can stop seeing your friends for a while, they will understand it's the normal thing to do. you NEED friends because everyone NEEDS friends they are so important, but also never important enough, if you think they are too important you are childish or are you secretly in love with them

see that's why aplatonics and aros need to stick together, neither of us are winning. we need to dismantle amatonormativity, but ALSO platonormativity, otherwise we won't make any progress

autistic aromantic culture is dreading when people get crushes on you and ask you out and claim you’ve been flirting back for forever but you’ve really just been mimicking their behavior because you appreciated them as a friend

.

Romance exhausted aro culture is selfishly wishing the characters stayed friends because the romance was done in such a boring, conventional way that the characters don't even feel unique anymore. Just archetypical grains in stale white bread without an ounce of un-forced romantic chemistry

Fandom Problem #5941:

People who ship things that are ‘practically canon’ are some of the most annoying, entitled members of a fandom. They constantly flip-flop between “we're better than you because it's canon” and “we’re the underdogs because the writers/other fans are too homophobic/sexist/etc. to acknowledge our ship.”

A) Even if it were canon (it’s not), that has never, and will never stop anyone from shipping something else. B) Theirs is the most popular ship for both characters by a large margin, they get new fics and art every single day. Get outta here with the ‘underdog’ mentality. C) People are gonna like what they like, including seeing your faves as just friends and shipping them with other characters they find more compatible.

Fandom Problem # 3960

I hate that 99% of superhero deconstructions are just "lol Superman (or superman expy) is an asshole now!"

6041 I've actually been writing up my own submission on this exact topic, but this is such fortuitous timing that I might as well go ahead and submit it as a response.

Yeah, M/M shippers can be really obnoxious, but I am so fucking sick of seeing them being blamed for "See! This is why men are afraid to show affection to other men!" No, men are afraid to show affection to other men because of HOMOPHOBIA. You really think that a handful of fangirls who want Kirk and Spock to kiss have had more of an impact on how men fear their relationships with other men are going to be perceived than the uncountable instances IRL of people being beaten, punished, brutalized, murdered etc. over the mere suspicion of being gay?

Here's a fun fact: it's ALSO damn near impossible for men and women to be platonic friends with each other IRL without everyone and their mother assuming that they're dating, and most people who are in this position find it really exasperating to have to explain for the umpteenth time that "No, he really is like a brother to me, no we don't secretly have a crush on each other, no we are never going to date", but they don't fear for their lives about it. And guess what? Some of the most popular het ships I can think of are ALSO between characters who are canonically platonic friends, where it's stated multiple times by both the characters and the creators that they're not interested in each other that way, and whose shippers are ALSO really obnoxious about insisting that their interpretation is right and everybody else (including the actual writers) is wrong, and who constantly read romance into every single interaction no matter how mundane or negative… but I have yet to see anyone pointing fingers and blaming Zutarans for amatonormativity or for the fact that no one seems to believe men and women can be friends without secretly wanting to bang.

So is it just me, or does pointing the finger at M/M shippers and screaming that "YOU are the reason that men are afraid to show affection to other men!" feel like nothing more than yet another poorly disguised attempt to punish women and girls for daring to like something?

Posting as a response to a previous problem.

What do you enjoy most about being loveless?

lovelessness feels like finding the secret best ending of a videogame. you didn't know it was there at first but once you find it you're overjoyed, everything makes more sense and not that many people find it

lovelessness is very freeing, you're not weighted down by amatonormativity and you are not forced to feel an emotion everyone tells you you HAVE to feel

and overall lovelessness makes me think a lot about life and relationships and finding a lot of new beautiful meanings to all of it. it's awesome

How it feels to be in the fandom of a show about friendship :

Daily reminder that not everything is or needs to be about romance.

Reblog this if you think that asexual, aromantic, agender, or any type of aspec folks should have more important roles as main characters

If you have any good ideas on what type of aspec main characters you can think of, share your ideas

being transmasc agender is like being a little creature that got a gender vessel but they sent me the wrong model- like imagine a cis man and his vessel is male and fits him perfectly and im just there like

Solo Travel: Quiet Time.

Even if you live alone, you probably don’t necessarily get lots of quality alone-time. There’ll be work, social feeds, friends, coworkers, and maybe even nearby family. There’ll be daily routines, podcasts, and the head-filling patterns of every day.

When you’re away somewhere—anywhere—the patterns break. Lunch is whenever, bedtime is whenever, you can turn off notifications and use the excuse that roaming charges are awful. You can tune out and have quiet time and be with yourself, and be yourself.

You can even have that quiet time in the noisiest of places—like a crowded festival city—because none of the noise matters. You won’t be monitoring for familiar voices, local rumours, local bullies, local anything. The noise will be chatter; a texture.

Aspec applications: Aspec travellers can have a little more to tune out than others. If you’re somewhere “vacationy” you’ll probably feel like you’re surrounded by allonormativity and amatonormativity, BUT it’s not impossible to tune out.

Those couples and throuples and families aren’t there to think about you, they’re there to worry about each other (and argue about menus and stress over a hundred other things). If anything, they’re probably a little jealous of how you have the freedom to really just be there. Give off your best “being there” vibe, and thrive on that until your concerns fade away and you can just enjoy being yourself again.

Its so hot outside that means it’s sketchbook season again my iPad will give me third degree burns if I try to open procreate 😀

gravity falls was such a great show for so many reasons but one in particular that stuck with me to this day was that it proudly encouraged kids to be weird. there was never the almost stifling message of "everyone is their own normal :)" because as a neurodivergent child that is almost never how it actually feels. it did an awesome job at saying "yeah, you stick out like a sore thumb. six of em, actually! how cool is that!?" and it encouraged you to support your loved ones weirdness even if you don't begin to understand it

"this is a universal queer experience"

>ask if it's universal or white

>they don't understand

>I pull out a diagram explaining what is universal and what is white

>they laugh and say "It's a good experience sir"

>I'm a native american trans woman

>Experience is white
