Hurry up! You’re running late for anime school!

🌟🍳🌸

Realizing I never posted this here!

My take on the classic anime trope of running late to school for the Kouhigh Toys Anime Art Show last summer. It was super cool to see my art displayed with so many wonderful artists! I’m still so so grateful for the opportunity to participate in such a fun show~

hi! i just found your aro comic

im a person full of love. full of love for those who hurt me and those who don't know i exist. full of love for everyone and always wanting friends

i learned that i'm aromantic just a few weeks ago. after being in four unsuccessful relationships...it makes sense; we were incompatible in a fundamental way.

but i'm not ace. and i still love my long-term, intimate relationships.

i love friends, i love community, i love family.

but when it comes to something special... it's difficult, it's unique.

i'm glad i learned that i'm aro and that there's nothing wrong with me. even though it was a hard thing to accept.

and i'm glad i have such a nice, loving community backing me.

I wanted to take the time to respond thoughtfully so apologies for taking a bit to get this right.

First of all, thank you so so much for sharing this with me. I can’t speak for other arospec people, but for me the realization that I was aro was such a vulnerable thing and I hope you are fairing well with your own discovery.

I’m so grateful that my comic was able to resonate with you, even just a little bit. In a way, hearing that other arospec people feel seen with my comic makes me feel seen in return—and isn’t that love as well? To see and be seen?

It’s exactly why I wanted to make that comic 💚

Aromantic Awareness Week has come and gone, and it had me reflecting on my own aro identity.

Like any aspec identity, being aromantic is so full of nuances that I find wonderful now, but had a hard time with when I was coming to accept it. Despite how right it felt, I was still left feeling like there was something wrong with me. Because after all, romance and love comes down to feelings right?

It took me a while to realize that I was equating romantic attraction to love. Having a lack of romantic attraction doesn’t mean I’m incapable of love. And I do love; I think I love fiercely.

💚

YOUR ART ON TUMBLR IS BEING USED TO TRAIN AI!

The setting that prevents your work being used to train AI models is turned off by default! I had no idea about this until now! Artists, go to your settings, click “visibility”, and turn on this setting! Protect your work!

《Made a visual guide of how to get there, because it's under a weird tab.

Go to your blog (you have to do this for each individual blog) and the visibility tab

It's this last option here

Hate this shit, but turn it off babey》

If anyone is interested in a longer history on black trans people, Black On Both  Sides by C. Riley Snorton has been on my to-read list for a while now, and has some pretty excellent reviews.

Working on an compiling all my d&d notes into a Grand Info Dump Session (since the campaign unfortunately fizzled out) and uh

Apparently didn’t write down as much of it as I thought I did :’D

That nonsexual intimacy of just being in each other's spaces, of gravitating towards each other, always subconsciously reaching out to each other. Finding comfort and satisfaction in being close to each other, breathing each other in, existing together.

Honestly it’s so tiring having to fight for ace/aro hcs in fandom. Like they’re never anyone else’s first pick unless the character is nonhuman (usually robots and aliens, because of course) or inherently un-pair-able for whatever reason. If the character falls outside that slim margin by even a little bit you have to fight tooth and nail to find any scraps of someone, anyone with a similar interpretation to you. Even if the character does have stuff in canon that supports an ace/aro read it still feels like you have to fight to prove it’s there. It’s just thoroughly disappointing.
