At long last, here is the updated list - thanks for your patience! A few quick notes: ~(All times in CST) Two-post days will go up at 12 pm and 6 pm. Three-post days will be 12 pm, 3 pm, and 6 pm. The days with friendship/sex/romance stances will post every 90 minutes between 8 am and 5 pm. ~Most flags and descriptions come from or are based on LGBTQIA+ Wiki pages. ~Not all of these identities/experiences are exclusive to aspecs, but because this blog is dedicated to aspec identities and experiences, the shoutout posts will be addressed as such.

Goodbye, Aspecs 👋

Okay, I've put off making this post long enough. (Uhhh, from sheer laziness, not because I didn't want to make it. XD) I said before June began that this would be the last round of Aspec Pride Calendar due to me largely moving away from using Tumblr, and this is still true. There have been ups and owns, but it's been a really cool experience running this blog! I'm so, so glad I got to make people feel seen during Pride Month and help people find terms that fit them. It's been really awesome watching that happen. While we're done for now, I won't dismiss the possiblity of coming back to it someday (though I won't guarantee it either!). In the meantime, if someone wanted to do something similar, I definitely would support it! So, goodbye, for now, aspecs. I love all of you (unless you prefer I don't). <3

[aspecpridecalendar]

This blog has been really helpful in helping me discover my asexual identity, and I really thank you for that :3

I was wondering if you knowing any simular blogs for multi-spec identities or gender (especially gender :p)

Thank you :3

It's the people like you who have really made running this blog work it, so thank you. <3 Since I kinda only run in aspec circles, I'm not personally aware of any blogs like this one for other areas of queerness, sorry. They've gotta be out there though! Followers, you got anything?

[aspecpridecalendar]

Quick reminder to shoot me a message if you see any -phobes/trolls/general dicks hanging around. Haters gets blocked and cursed, but it’s always possible I’ll miss something.
