Cooking horror game where you play as a cook working in the galley of a ship in the 1800s. There’s some kind of supernatural nautical horror story going on in the background but you barely notice this because you spend all day cooking in the galley.

As the game goes on you have to cook for fewer and fewer people but their orders--and the ingredients they bring you--become increasingly unhinged

[slavetomyheadcanon]

And you have less guidance so you have to get more creative at improvising meals. (Is this eye stalk sweet or savory?)

Today I was helping run the booth for the local queer non-profit at the farmer's market and a woman told me that she would like a flag, pointing to our little bucket of flags. So I picked up the bucket and I brought it over and asked her which one she'd like.

"Well, tell me about them!"

"Oh! Okay! This one is the inclusion flag- its for everyone, including allies."

"What's this one?"

"That's the bisexual flag: it represents people who are attracted to two or more genders."

"Hmm... what about this one?"

"That's the nonbinary flag: it represents people whose gender isn't strictly 'male or female.'"

"Hmm... what's this purple one?"

"That's the asexual flag: it represents people who may not feel sexual attraction the way that others do."

She put her hand to her chest and got this really curious look on her face. "Tell me more about that!"

"Oh, happy to! So like if you're out with your bestie and someone real fine walks by and she's like 'omg look at him' and you're like 'girl get a grip?' Or like you just don't get what the 'big deal' is about sex or why everyone is so weird about it? But there's also room for like- you don't fall in love with the way someone looks, you're attracted to the person- their sense of humor and their kindness, or there's something about their personality that just makes it click for you? That's asexuality, too!"

And she got real quiet and seemed to think about it for a minute. So I grabbed our little informational sheet about different queer identities and handed her a copy. "If you want to do some research, this is probably a great place to start."

She thanked me and took an ace flag, stuck it in her hair.

Sometimes when you're online all the time, its easy to think that 'everyone knows about (topic), there's no reason to keep talking about it so much.' But while the people on the internet are real people, the internet ISN'T real life. And there are lots of people who do need to know that they do have community!

One of the jokes is that I'm a lot of people's 'patient zero' for discovering that they're queer. This is why.

bianca devins was not murdered because she was asexual. if anything, her killer perhaps didn’t even know that she identified as asexual. some of her friends have even said that they didn’t know anything about her identifying as asexual.

i find it hard to believe that bianca was even asexual.

it’s hard to believe that someone who would say these things is an actual asexual. there were also !alleged! screenshots where she was talking about the guy she had met at the concert and saying she wanted to “fuck” him.

anyways, it doesn’t matter if she was asexual or not. that’s not why she was killed. im tired of people trying to twist this to suit their opinions and ideals. rest in peace bianca.

[ripbiancamichelledevins]

@dandrvff if a person is actually asexual why would they have sex? anyways

[ranga3595]

Asexuals can still experience sexual desire and a sex drive, also asexuality is a spectrum which covers experiencing little to no sexual attraction. Some asexuals that don't desire sex at all do have sex to please their partner and make them happy.

the depiction of anxiety attacks on One Day at a Time is so, so important for so many reasons, but I really love Alex’s reaction to them especially.

when Elena has an anxiety attack in front of her mom for the first time, Alex is there. he watches Penelope calm Elena down by helping her breathe and showing her pictures of cute dogs in wigs. Alex doesn’t say much, he just watches closely, then asks a few questions to make more sense of what anxiety is and how to help his sister and his mom get through it.

later in the season, Elena has another anxiety attack before taking her driving exam. Alex immediately knows what to do, he recognizes that she’s having an anxiety attack before even she does, and he does the same things their mother did to help her calm down.

Alex is such, such a good kid. they let him be a typical teenage boy, but he’s also gentle and kind and understanding. 

he’s so vain and he loves to flirt with girls and he makes fun of Elena, but he’s also empathetic 

and his best friend is his grandmother. he paints her nails for her when she’s comatose in the hospital. 

I want to see so many more boys like Alex Alvarez on TV

have i told you guys about my favorite scene in maybe anything, ever? please watch one day at a time

[theforestofthenight]

I would like to point out that this moment right here is so cleverly put and genuinely beautiful that it could work for everything people want and need to take from it.

I legitimately cried, because I didn’t only see how a healthy and respectful relationship should work, I also saw a beautiful and respectful way to legitimate and support asexuality, which is something I’ve never seen in a show, especially related to a same sex couple (a lesbian one nonetheless).

As an ace lesbian this means the world to me, because I always have to deal with over-sexualized characters and stories, and though I’m kinda used to it by now, it still bothers me, because I just wish people understood that not everything revolves around sex, and that you can be in a healthy and happy relationship regardless of it involving sex or not, as long as you really love each other.

So, thank you One Day at a Time, you did good.

Additionally, Syd (tropical shirt) is nonbinary. They identify as they/them, and Elena is she/her. Syd calls Elena her girlfriend, but they spend an entire show arc trying to come up with something to call Syd that feels right. They finally settle on Sydnificant Other because puns and proper identities equal love. This show is doing beautiful things.
