TUMBLR UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Hi, so it's been like 4 years, if I am not speaking into the void... As the title says, I'm going to remake this blog. I'll probably delete posts, remake posts, etc. I made this when I was in high school, so I don't necessarily want this to live forever at this point. Maybe I'll see you on the other side!

Do you all have any recommendations for YouTube series like GinjaNinjaOwO’s PRISM and ABD Illustrates’s Concept Corner?

Those sort of “I ramble about my OCs while drawing them” speedpaints? I like to listen to them while drawing and have watched those two series so much that I thought I might as well give some new ones a try.

For a little context before I post this, I am an Asexual Aromantic-spectrum Biromantic Nonbinary person. As well, whenever I say asexuals/aromantics, I also mean all those in the spectrum of asexuality/aromanticism.

If you exclude asexuals and aromantics from the LGBTQIA community, you’re acephobic/arophobic! (Yes, even if you are fine with them otherwise)

The A in the LGBTQIA community stands for asexuals and aromantics. It is a shame that many asexuals and aromantics don’t feel comfortable or welcome in the LGBTQIA community because you can’t get over the fact that not everyone is like you.  

If you exclude cishet asexuals and cishet aromantics from the LGBTQIA community, you’re acephobic/arophobic! (Yes, even if you allow in not-cishet aces and aros)

Cishet asexuals and cishet aromantics are part of the asexual and aromantic communities. That is a fact; one that not a single person in the asexual/aromantic communities disagrees with (at least that I have seen). Stop saying that “they are not queer enough to be in the LGBTQIA community”. That’s like saying that a lesbian is not queer enough to be in the LGBTQIA community because she’s not also trans. Sounds kind of stupid, doesn’t it? By saying this, you are again going back to the fact that asexuals and aromantics are not part of the LGBTQIA-A is for Asexual/Aromantic-community.

"Here, queer, and full of fear" may be accurate, but I gotta say, "Gay and Confused" fits me to a t.

Why is it that Ace/Aro people don't get as much representation? I mean, I know I would love to see a romance story where there are people fighting over our main character, and they're just sitting back with popcorn.

Love interests: They want to be with me!

MC: Ah, how nice it is not to care.

[the-spades-ace]

Ah, yes, the three genders: male, female, and *looks at smudged writing on hand*... complete and utter chaos?

[the-spades-ace]

Flat Stanley is gender envy.

Gender: F

Me: Mom, Dad, I'm so sorry. I'm failing gender.

Some people have spot-on gaydars...

Me: I've connected the dots.

Friend: You haven't connected sh*t.

Me: I've connected them.
