#mod l out

[asexualscience]

YO you probably didn't notice but today is the one-year anniversary of ASEXUAL FACT OF THE DAY! That means our plans for AceCon 2013 have to be put into real gear.

While we discussed doing a meetup in February (today, in fact), this seems increasingly unlikely as we don't have a space to hold a lot of people and it's still freezing cold out (winter weather advisory, anyone?) and so we couldn't meet outside, either. We'll probably have a TinyChat on the internet on Friday (tomorrow) or Saturday, times to be determined (but it would probably be eveningish EST). A bigger (physical) meetup will probably happen in the Summertime because I have an excellent relationship with our city's parks.

Later today/tomorrow Eventually (but a soon type of eventually) maybe someone will write up a list of moderated topics to talk about. Or we will wing it. Something might happen.

Happy birthday, Asexual Fact of the Day!

????? more question marks for reply purposes????

[asexualfactoftheday]

what did my species do to become outcasted two hundred years ago? why must it reflect upon me? /drowns in tears

once upon a time, long long ago, the asexuals said “hello we exist” and the bisexuals said “yes we also exist” and the asexuals said “WE DON’T BELIEVE YOU” because how could sex exist when you could just reproduce asexually like honestly???? and having sexual attraction??? how strange!!!! the asexuals just didn’t understand. neither did the homosexuals or the heterosexuals, who believed neither in the bisexuals or the asexuals. they went and had their own war though in like newspapers and stuff and the stonewall riots or whatever*.

back to the a/bi war. anyhow each side said “i don’t believe you exist” and we shouted at each other on opposite sides of a field for a long time until we got tired and went home. and then we went back out! IT LASTED FOR GENERATIONS. MANY GAMES OF GO FISH WERE PLAYED. BLOOD WAS SHED AND WIPED UP WITH TISSUES BECAUSE DRY AIR CAUSES A LOT OF NOSEBLEEDS.

then, about two hundred years ago, someone said “hello what about romantic attraction” and the biromantic asexuals emerged from their suburban houses and said “yeah what about romantic attraction we are bi but also ace” and everyone said how could you betray us in this manner, you must choose one or the other!!!! you cannot be both!!!! and the biromantic asexuals were like “no” and so

we do not forgive

we do not forget
