I’m kind of tired of asexuals always being like “what? Huh? OH YOU MEAN S E X nonono wtf I no sex no none for me.” I mean I love them and they’re cinnamon rolls but.

Like. Come on.

Give me an asexual who knew she were ace since middle school, when she had a crush on a girl and started researching sexualities. Who gets and makes sex jokes and who, when asked if she fucked someon last night, laughs and jokes that “oh yeah best fuck of my life.”

Give me an asexual who teases his friends about being attracted to That Trashcan. Sexually.

Give me an asexual who regularly fucks their datemate!! Being ace doesn’t mean you never fuck!

Give me an asexual who goes into relationships like “okay, heads up, I’m ace, these are the things I’m comfortable with, sexually, these are the things im not sure about or that depend, and these are things that I am never under any circumstances okay with you doing so if you do do them and I haven’t explicitly told you to then we’re over.”

Give me diversity in asexuals!

Make It So!

I was startled by Joel Coen's response to questions regarding Hail Caesar's snow-white cast of main characters: "“You don’t sit down and write a story and say, ‘I’m going to write a story that involves four black people, three Jews, and a dog’ — right?” It sounds like the set-up for a bad joke ~ maybe it is, with the punchline being what Manohla Dagris said of Mannix, the studio's fixer in Hail Caesar, which seems true of the brothers: "He’s an embodiment of the industry’s self-delusion and self-mythology, the kind of executive who invokes vision and bullies the help." It's true that in several instances, in some of their films ~ notably Miller's Crossing ~ the characters are distinctly of a particular ethnicity & the actors cast are of the same ethnic background. However, not all their characters are written as ethnic specific &/or played by actors who ethnicity matches that of their character, notably Oscar Isaac & Carey Mulligan in Inside Llewyn Davis. I am disappointed that the Coen brothers think "diversity is important" but don't feel that they should make an imaginative & pragmatic effort to diversify their creative ventures.

Why Blacks are not part of the vision of a Pittsburgh “comeback”

Why Blacks are not part of the vision of a Pittsburgh “comeback”

C. Matthew Hawkins

Time Magazine’s “Pittsburgh’s Comeback” video is a striking piece of work that romanticizes Pittsburgh’s potential niche in the so-called “New Economy” — even the commercials for the video promote financial derivatives, or as Warren Buffett famously called them “financial weapons of mass destruction,” which is the hallmark of the new economy — but the video is roundly being…

Can anyone help me out by answering a few questions..?

If you are any race other than white

If you are ethnically or culturally non-white

(it's really just supposed to be ethnically or culturally different than myself and I'm white as hell and from Canada so really just anything bother than the typical white, English speaking countries)

If you are religious 

If you don’t identify as cishet

(as in heterosexual/ your gender identity and sex match)

If you have a disability

or

If you happen to be over 65

What are your beliefs, customs and traditions (as they pertain to your identifier above) and how are you treated in your country of origin?

I’m supposed to ask random strangers on the street these questions and the very thought was making me nauseous so please, for the sake of my grade….
