To the aro lesbians: youre not feeding the stereotype or sexualizing lesbians. Its not your job to desexualize lesbians. You deserve the world and more 💚

To the aro gay men: youre not feeding the predatory gay stereotype. Its not your job to end the belief that gay men are predatorial 💚

To the aro bi and pansexuals: youre not emotionally manipulative or abusive for being aromantic. Its not your job to end the belief that bisexuals and pansexuals are sex hungry and emotionally null. Youre deeply emotional and complicated and no one can take that from you 💚

To the aro heterosexual men: youre not inherently mysoginistic or a “fuckboy” for not being interested in pursuing a romantic relationship with a woman youre sexually attracted to. Its not your job to single handedly tackle the belief that men who like to have sex with women but not engage in a romantic relationship with them are predatory misogynists. You identity is not problematic because it overlaps with these negative stereotypes 💚

To the aromantic heterosexual women: Your aromanticism is not an obstacle for men to hurdle and “defeat”. You are not a prize to be won 💚

To the aromantic asexual people: you’re aromanticism/asexuality does not make you a waste. Your companionship is no less valuable than that of alloromantic allosexuals 💚

To the aromantic people who feel broken: you’re not, aromanticism isnt the character flaw that media makes it out to be. It is a valid identity, not a quirk or mistake. Its an identity 💚

To the aromantic minors: youre not immature, you wont “realize when youre older”. Aromanticism isnt a childish thing that you grow out of as you mature. Your identity is just as valid NOW as it will be in twenty years. Just because people get up in arms about a-spec identities in minors doesnt make you any less aromantic. 💚

To the aromantic abuse survivors: whether your aromanticism is related to your trauma or not does not invalidate it. Whether youre aromantic because or despite your trauma youre still aromantic and no less than those who arent survivors 💚

To the romance repulsed aromantics: its okay. YOURE okay. Romance being shoved down your throat every way you turn is hard, and people ignoring your feelings about it hurts but youre just as valid as those who dont experience it. You deserve to be as comfortable as everyone else 💚

To the autistic aromantics: your autism doesnt discount your aromanticism whether theyre closely entwined or not. You deserve better than allistics policing your identity and how it interacts with your autism 💚

To the popular aromantics: its not a competition as to who can be .~*the one*~. to “fix” you no matter how much it may feel that way. You are so much more than a challenge for people to overcome 💚

To all aromantic people regardless of all else: i love you. I promise you’ll get through this 💚

COVID is slowly becoming a "third world" disease. While first world countries are hoarding vaccines, having doses for populations many times their size, third world countries can't get any because pharma companies want to sell to the first world countries first. Even then, first world countries will receive them first. While rich countries recover from COVID, they will forget about the pandemic while many other countries live the absolute worst moment of the pandemic without being able to vaccinate their population.

This could save lives so I thought I’d share!

Welp, here I am, reblogging something again because a good friend asked me to, and I cannot ignore.

So @clementineissleepless you better do it too-

new picrew challenge!!

fun fact: i own these earring irl!

tagging: @saturnity @dilftaroooo @bokutolesbo @uwu-iwanttodie and anyone else who wants to try it! no pressure!

Happy new year 2022 🌱

Words to replace said, except this actually helps

I got pretty fed up with looking for words to replace said because they weren’t sorted in a way I could easily use/find them for the right time. So I did some myself.
