you have to be kinder to people with memory issues.
you have to be kinder to people who are slow processors.
you have to be kinder to people who don't understand your jokes.
you have to be kinder to people who forget important dates.
you have to be kinder to people with cognitive decline.
you have to be kinder to people who were always this way, too.

Common misconceptions about the demigirl/demiwoman identity :
-"You need to be AFAB to be a demigirl"
=> NO, no and NO, you can be a demigirl NO MATTER WHAT YOU WERE ASSIGNED AT BIRTH. Calling it an "afab-exclusive" identity is both transphobic/transmisogynistic and false, do not do that.
- "It’s half-girl-half-nonbinary"
=> Not necessarily! It can be true for some demigirls but not all of them. It isn't a requirement nor the definition. (Because I've seen people define it that way. Not quite)
- "Demigirls are she/they"
=> No. It is a common set of pronouns among demigirls but it isn't exclusive to them nor is it required to be one. You can use any pronouns you like and still be a demigirl (or any gender identity for that matter)
-"Demigirl is part girl part agender"
=> While true for a lot of demigirls, the demigirl identity basically just means "Only partially a girl/woman", the other identities or lack of thereof depends on the person. It can be agender but also any other gender identities (yes, even more masc or fluid ones)
Here you go, I hope I've helped clearing up some common mistakes about this identity. Now you're all set to be the best ally to ALL demigirls for this pride month. :D
If you have any other ones you want to share or things to add, don't hesitate!

Reblog is this is a safe space for the identities theses flags represent pls follow too
Hehehe I’m a demiboy <3
happy pride month!! some aro ace Phantumps to celebrate!
I was in a long-term relationship that fell apart partially because I was ace and my partner was very much not, and every time we looked for relationship help we got told that I was the problem. Not just that a significant mismatch in sexual desire could be a problem in a relationship, but that it was My Fault, Specifically, for not being willing to suck it up and have a bunch of sex I didn't want. To my ex's credit, he cared about consent much more than any of the professionals we talked to and refused to pressure me even when my (lesbian, billed as progressive and pro-LGBT) therapist was actively telling him to.
But it meant that we had absolutely no help or support when we were trying to work on the relationship in ways that *did* value my autonomy. There's basically no advice for people who want to try to make a relationship where there's a big desire gap work that isn't "well you should just have sex anyway" or "just break up lol". And that sucks!
Sometimes breaking up is necessary, and that's what ended up happening with us because there were other reasons we worked better as friends, but there *should* be better frameworks for discussing what people want and need that don't automatically assume that one partner's feelings are automatically more important or valuable than the other's.
I was dating someone who wanted to be accommodating and work with me to figure things out but lacked the EQ to do so in any effective way. It was my first relationship and I was still figuring out what being ace meant for me. It’s been eight or nine years, but I still remember very clearly the moment I realized we’d been approaching the entire discussion as if my orientation was the problem to be solved, and that it would be equally as valid to say that hers was.
She was significantly less impressed with this revelation than I was, but I tried to hold on to it ever since (although obviously the real problem wasn’t either one of us, but the mismatch and the lack of tools to deal with it). I think it’s super important to remember that we aren’t the ones in the wrong while our theoretical partners are the ones in the right. I was surprised by how much I’d internalized the assumption and I don’t think I’m the only one.
The other frustrating aspect of this is allo relationships will often have periods of time where libido does not match (I'm not derailing and this will swing back to asexual people)
Just after giving birth, during a family crisis, during a mental health episode, during health problems, during stressful periods at work
There are a lot of times when one person is horned up and raring to go and the other has no interest
And the solution often presented is that the person who is going through something should just put out because they are the problem instead of like...finding ways to engage in non sexual intimacy to reaffirm closeness
An asexual person is going to get 10x the amount of pressure and blame put on them and no advice on how non-sexual intimacy can help their relationships and if they get that at all it will only be to sell it as a bridge to sex they don't want.
I really hate the selling of intimacy as only equaling or facilitating sex. Intimacy comes in many forms and should be explored more by every couple as a non sexual act. And it the given importance it deserves. In fact I would argue if we as a society put more value on non sexual intimacy more relationships would be happier and healthier
And asexual people would stop getting shit for being themselves.
Yeah, exactly! There are many different forms of intimacy, physical and emotional, and we need to stop viewing non-sexual forms of intimacy as inherently lesser.
And also you're right that while this post is specifically about the asexual experience, these problems affect everyone; desire gaps, whether temporary/circumstantial or ongoing, affect many if not most long-term relationships. And the solution needs to reaffirm bodily autonomy and compassion for everyone, not just carve out a specific exception for ace people. Too frequently I see people and institutions that, even when they're attempting to be affirming, essentially say "Well this is what a committed relationship Needs To Look Like . . . unless you already id as ace I guess" instead of allowing their general idea of what relationships can look like to expand and become less prescriptive.
No one should be pressured into sex they don't want. This should be a basic and non-negotiable tenet of feminism. But it goes out the window as soon as it's in the context of a committed relationship that isn't otherwise abusive.

Reblog if you think it’s okay to platonically say “I Love You” to your friends
Slams the reblog button so damn fast
UM OBVIOUSLY
I do that all the time
Reblogging thrice for effective reach
This isn’t don’t debate ANYONE; it’s don’t debate folks that will only listen to your arguments in order to formulate their own responses against it
Good debates are a discussion, not a verbal sparing match of stamina
Oh boy, Glitch's done it again.
so these screenshots of Glassdoor reviews from Glitch employees have been making the rounds on Twitter recently. now i personally cannot confirm or deny the truth of the allegations told in these screenshots, but i do know this: Glassdoor is a website where employees can review the working conditions they face at the company they're employed at. it's a well-known fact that Glassdoor doesn't allow just anyone to post a review there unverified; they have to show ample proof that they actually were employed at the company they say they were. so, we can operate under the assumption that these reviews are, most likely, more or less a legitimate look into Glitch Production's inner workings. however, if i'm wrong, please let me know. tl;dr: these reviews essentially state that Glitch treats its female employees like shit (what a surprise), sets ridiculously unrealistic expectations for its workers, resorts to intimidation and threats on multiple occasions, and even coerces workers to write false good reviews to boost their Glassdoor ratings (among other horrible shit). and Boy, am i not surprised but still somehow disappointed. honestly, i didn't think my respect for glitch could sink any lower, but here we are, i guess. apparently this is the same company that's going to be "paving the way for a new generation of indie artists" or whatever. more like falling back on the very same underpaying, overworking, greedy, toxic abusive bullshit that's been plaguing the animation and entertainment industries for decades now. great work guys, thanks! you're a stain on our history and the future of animation is even deeper in the pits than it ever was. we're one step back from ever redefining and reworking the rampant malpractice, mistreatment and dehumanization going on behind closed doors. link to Glitch's Glassdoor page: https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Glitch-Productions-Reviews-E8656356.htm Link to twitter posts with screenshots and summaries: https://x.com/lumirunner/status/2057519161648333178 https://x.com/lumirunner/status/2057800789977174404
I’m not fully shocked. Just…disappointed in more ways. A lot of these issues are just overall issues in indie, art, etc.
I feel like someone is standing next to me talking about how I'm dead
The chemical they put on ants and all the other ants think they're dead that's what happened to tumblr except the chemical is unmarketability

tea
Let’s make tea
Water
Tea bag
Sugar
Edible glitter
Okay so I did it, first I measured out 6.8 teaspoons of water
Then I added 3.5 teaspoons of sugar
Then heated it up and added three tea bags and let them set
Then I measured out and added 10.7 teaspoons of edible glitter
It didn’t really act like a solid or a liquid but it had the consistency of peanut butter when eaten, it definitely tastes like tea
I added the final product to a gallon of sweet tea to dilute it so the glitter isn’t wasted
Since I’m realizing not everyone knows about the tea, this is its creation
This is what I think those unicorns that poop or puke in those old cringy cartoons
