You know what? Forget the discourse. This is no longer my hill to die on.

You wanna ship canonically aspec characters because “aro/ace people can still date/have sex”? Okay, then. LET’S DO IT.  I wanna see an aromantic character with an alloromantic love interest. I wanna see that confession of undying love and the moment when the aro character says they will never feel the same way—not romantically.

I wanna see the asexual character with their allosexual partner. I wanna see that moment when the ace characters tries sex with their partner for the first time because they want to make them happy only to realize that they are 100% sex repulsed.

I wanna see the two demiromantics who don’t even know if what they feel is romantic attraction, but they adore each other and just want to make healthy snacks together and destroy each other at Mario Kart.

I wanna see the two aces who love sensual affection and are figuring out what they define as sexual or not.

I wanna see the romance + sex neutral aroace who happily and consensually does whatever makes their partner happy…but their partner still struggles with feeling undesired. 

Oh, babe. You thought shipping an aspec character would be just like shipping an allo character?

UPDATE: Okay, wow. I had no idea this post was gonna blow up like this. 😂 Like THIS MANY people want these kinds of stories too? I'm shook.

So, uh...*pulls collar nervously* I actually publish stories like this? I'm the author of a YA horror-fantasy series called The Stormwatch Diaries. Long story short, I'm republishing the first three books to fully explore my main characters' asexuality and aromanticism.

So if you're looking for an aspec relationship dynamic that involves:

Being in love with your best friend

It's mutual

You're both ace

And aro? Demiromantic?? Qoiromantic??? WHO KNOWS

You're a bonded pair and cannot be adopted separately

Oh, and there's graveyard cuddle time

Then maybe *sweats*...maybe you'd like to check out my first book Legend of the Storm Sneezer, which is coming out on Asexual Visibility Day next year? (April 6th, 2026.)

"It's not hurting anyone" until it is, y'know

Obligatory "not all people" and "not all situations" yadda yadda yadda, but also, I don't feel like watering this one down into oblivion. You know what I mean.

Thinking about the whole "there is no platonic explanation for this" thing and how it doesn't account for intense platonic situationships and anyways I think we should start saying "there is no casual explanation for this" bc really what we're talking about is the way the characters in question are Obsessed with each other

That's what she said

Idk stupid jokes aside I guess it's obvious to us by now but it IS kind of the baseline of the struggle huh

How My Parents Profited $150k Off Their Disabled Child

Part 1 of Unknown (it's a loooong story)

Hmmm...is my Tumblr audience interested in insane abuse stories from my childhood? Because if so, boy do I have some stories for you.

[paperpoetryandpetrichor]

what I don't understand is that prior to the finale everyone seemed to be in agreement that this could never be perfect, the whole production got gutted for reasons we are all acutely aware of and everyone was doing the best they could to give this beloved show an ending despite the circumstances.

what happened to that

Crowley and Aziraphale's finger kiss meant everything to me.

I know everyone is feeling big feels right now and there's a lot of concern about queer censorship. But as an asexual person who doesn't kiss their partner on the lips, I have never felt more deeply moved by a kissing scene. It conveyed intimacy on a level I almost never see on screen but experience daily with the love of my life.

I am so full of joy.

I have not drawn my duck omens in a hot minute but I HAD TO DRAW THEM SOOO

HERES ASA DUCK AND DUCKTHONY

[blackjeans93]

My positive thoughts on why I found the Good Omens finale satisfying:

I think it's important to consider that a good character based narrative is about the characters feelings, rather than the reader or the audiences.

Crowley and Aziraphale, while we as the audience have known them almost exclusively as a demon and an angel, have never been particularly good at their roles, nor was it their core identify. Their identities were based on how they rejected their roles, and embraced something else.

And what did they embrace? Earth and humanity. The things they found and chose to define them are the Bentley, the bookshop, food and drink, music, film, television, theatre, all very human creations. And the list goes on.

They always wanted to be human, and be together.

And that's the ending they got to have.

That's the only one there could have been, to close the circle of who they are as characters.

Neither Heaven incarnate, nor Hell incarnate.

But human incarnate.

Introducing...Beakerjuice!

This is what happens when two of my special interests (Beaker and the Beetlejuice musical) collide. 😂

My library had a book-themed Peeps diorama contest, and I chose Lockwood & Co.! My "Easter Egg Haunt" features Peeps Lucy and (polymer clay) Skull facing down a murderous marshmallow Type II ghost! 👻🐤 Also featured are my stunning, signed collector's editions of Lockwood & Co.!

[bloggingboutburgers]

...But also, real talk, I wonder how it's gonna be for us.

[fish-without-legs]

people always get so caught-up on needing a definition for queerplatonic attraction or relationships, when it's pretty much the relationship equivalent of nonbinary. and "what is an exact definition of nonbinary?" is a difficult question to answer! it's quite literally just "any gender that is not strictly binary", and in that exact same way I cannot give you an all-encompassing definition of queerplatonic beyond "it's not strictly in the romantic/platonic binary" it could be inbetween, it could be neither, it could be both, it could be outside of that all.

“They’re just looking for attention.”

Oh, a human being is seeking a social response? Human being, the social animal wired to make and track social connection? A human desires the vital blood that permitted their species to survive for millennia? The human being who was born completely helpless and primed in every way by nature to seek attention and help from their community?

Wow that’s crazy. How embarrassing. Humiliating even. Should we isolate them from community? Should we call Wire Mother?
