also i HATE How SO MANY PEOPLE think that alterous attraction is like a transition period between platonic and romantic attraction and not as a permanent thing .Does that make sense
he just spent like an hour and a half infodumping about comics, he’s so cute i can’t
i said he could show me some of the tv series/movies/comic runs he likes and he was so excited (“for real?” “yes” “hell yeah”)
i’m lucky :)
you're living the dream for real
there is so much love in friendship, people forget that
i love you love without romance
I fully support Pluto as an aro symbol (x) but as a space scientist I cannot support any arguments that claim it's because Pluto should be a planet. The true reason Pluto is an aro symbol is precisely because people tie the amount of love and care this wonderful celestial body receives to which label it has. Just because a relationship with someone is not labeled as romantic should not mean that this relationship has to be treated as less worthy of time and care and effort. Just because Pluto is not labeled as a planet does not mean it is less worthy of our time and care and effort.
Here is another reason Pluto is aro: Pluto has a heart shaped region called the Tombaugh region:
[ID: an image of Pluto and it's heart shaped Tombaugh region, with the moon Charon in the background. End ID]
Now, Pluto and it's moon Charon are tidally locked, meaning they always face each other with the same hemisphere. Pluto's heart is always facing away from Charon. Some articles have phrased this as being tragically romantic, but I disagree! Here are two celestial objects orbiting each other for billions of years, and they are doing this while Pluto keeps it's heart hidden. Because in this case, love is not part of the equation that makes up their bond, romance does not play a part in their gravitational pull towards each other. That's aro as fuck, in my humble opinion.
In conclusion:

I find it quite strange how often people let a label decide for them how much love or importance they can give to something or someone. It demonstrates how often we see things as inherently hierarchical and how attaching labels to these hierarchies stops us from focusing on the thing behind the label, preventing us from exploring our own true feelings and, in the worst case, causing an endless cycle of discourse about labels. In this essay I will talk about how Pluto is still a fascinating and beautiful celestial object, and how people who argue that it should be a planet again are demonstrating their belief that the reclassification automatically implies that Pluto must be loved less, when in fact Pluto itself has not changed and you are free to love Pluto as a dwarf planet just as much as you would love Pluto as a planet planet.
they were so funny for this
MARK THE DAMN DATE
Simone de Beauvoir, from a letter to Nelson Algren, featured in "A Transatlantic Love Affair,
on valentines day do NOT propose to anyone do NOT ask anyone out do NOT go on a date do NOT have sex do NOT marry anyone. go to coolmathgames dot com and start playing papa's freezeria
compliment the people you love. thank them for the kindness they show you. make it clear how much joy they bring into your life because, sometimes, people feel kind of useless yk? kinda not enough. and being seen and recognized by someone who matters makes all the difference. don’t hold back your affection
I have noticed in recent years that men say “no homo” way less often than they used to when I was in high school at least. Like I’ve witnessed in media and online and in person adult men just willing to say “I love you” or “you look great” to their guy friends without tacking a no homo onto the end of it.
And if you think that’s not progress you weren’t there in the trenches.
I’ve seen middle aged comedians on national tv sincerely say “I love you” to their friends with no jokes attached. Nature is so slow to heal but it is possible, I tell you. We have planted trees and seen them survive.
sorry, we just got word that for this valentine’s day you HAVE to be aromantic. yeah, sorry, i dont make the rules :/
are people under the impression that aromantic people never want to have close personal relationships with the people in their lives. "oh i wish i was aro it would save me all this drama!" actually human relationships are always deep and complicated and messy and have the potential to hurt and help and change your life and being romantic is just one possible aspect of that. aromantic people want to be close to the people around them just like anyone else. and i know the real issue is that people think romantic relationships are the only way to be truly close to someone else but it's weird and off-putting to constantly hear the implication that aros are somehow fundamentally incapable of forming relationships that would impact their lives negatively cause they don't wanna go on dates with people. not even mentioning the aros who do
gonna start reverse-shipping. that canon couple is not dating actually. that kiss was entirely platonic and i dont see why you’re reading into it any other way. their parents are clearly roommates with benefits. when they say “boyfriend” they actually said “boy friend”. every character will become aromantic when i’m done with them
i just want to be near him, i want to be in his orbit, i want to see him smile and hear him laugh and i want to just be around him, all the time
[COMPLETELY LOVESICK VOICE] he is so strange. And off-putting
