I'm not a "I'm probably broken" asexual. I'm a "everyone is sex crazy and I'm the only one real about this" asexual.

Holy fuck, people.

Don't vote for Trump.

The funniest shit about asexuals is that all of us grew up consuming media that talks on and on about sexual attract and desire, with a pretty hypersexualized culture and people talk about it a fucking lot too. And what is that we all collectively think? "Yeah, that's clearly an exaggeration, nobody actually feels like that! The whole world it's pretending, that's the only possible explanation..." Like sure buddy, that's a very logical way of thinking, the entire world is acting, don't think too hard about it

"The case comes from the rural Oregon town of Grants Pass, which started fining people $295 for sleeping outside to manage homeless encampments that sprung up in the city’s public parks as the cost of housing escalated."

Can you imagine having the first response be, "Let's fine these people!" and not, "Let's help these people!"

Then to set the fine at $295. I have a decent job and that'd be a bite and you're doing that to people who are fucking homeless? You have no soul, you have no humanity, if you think this is any kind of solution and I fear the Supreme Court will uphold it.

With homelessness on the rise, the Supreme Court will weigh bans on sleeping outdoors

The case is considered the most significant to come before the high court in decades on homelessness, which is reaching record levels in the

The most cost effective way to end homelessness is to give people homes

They say Tumblr's dead, but there's always a new April Fool's gag.

Ace rambles

Guys I need answers. Because how do you define sexual attraction? Do allo people just think "damn I want to have sex with them" if they like someone?

I as a ace (this is a spectrum and different for everyone) like to touch and kiss and cuddle or whatever but NOT in a sexual way. And as far as I know all these things CAN be seen as sexual. But how is that different? Does feeling sexual feelings mean that they want to have sex?

Ughh I literally made a whole biological study out of this but still don't know what's the difference.

[redbeardace]

I don't think anyone really knows. Everyone describes it a little differently, yet people seem to have some level of recognition of someone else's description, even if it's wildly different than their own.

Here's a list of some of the ways people have described it: https://www.asexualityarchive.com/maybe-im-not-really-asexual-because-i-have-no-idea-what-sexual-attraction-is-so-how-do-i-know-if-im-feeling-it-or-not/

It's one of those things where I don't think a precise definition is possible, because I think any attempt to nail down specifics will start to exclude people who do feel it and include people who don't.

[timid-tracks]

I'm still not entirely convinced it's a real thing.

Friendly reminder as we head into tax season (for US Americans), that the major tax preparation companies are fully prepared to lie and mislead you into paying for their tax preparation software when you might qualify for free software through the IRS.

Don’t fall for their bullshit. Visit IRS Free File and see what services are available to you. The requirements vary depending on your household status and income, but if you make less than $79,000/year (which is nearly everyone I know), you probably qualify for something.

Working on a little inky cap mushroom creature/adding beads to plushies!

This project may or may not be delayed by the realization that I can make tiny bead lizards

[tj-crochets]

Tiny lizard achieved!

Time to go back to making a mushroom

[timid-tracks]

So I definitely didn't go out and buy a bunch of tiny little beads to make tiny bead lizard earrings because of this post 😅

An important tweet

This is such a "common sense" way of putting it. Everybody memorize this for spitting it back out whenever needed.

I made a mini series of comics about how i eventually found out i'm asexual, here's the first issue, this realisation happened when i was 11

ID: a digital comic in two panels that features two characters: an anthropomorphic cat and a human girl with glasses and long hair. In the first panel, the girl is reading a book and saying "This character is soooooooo hot, OMG! I really love him", the cat sitting next to her is drawing and raising an eyebrow as they listen to the girl. In the next panel, the cat has an unsure expression and thinks: "This 'being hot' thing sounds less like a joke every time. They might be serious.". End ID.

Shoutout to all my fellow aspec folks who never understood why someone would cheat on their partner for sex, only to later find out they were asexual
