Both she/her | aro ace. We love animation, comics and video games, especially the indie ones. Please do not spoil Anime Campaign for us! (icon by stim-shop)
Thank you so much to everyone who has waited for this event to officially begin, and hello to all newcomers! To support Palestine, her refugees, and those who support Palestinian freedom and oppose genocide, we are hosting a fundraiser - donations to certain pro-Palestine charities in exchange for Twisted Wonderland fics and fanart!
This is legal and even abides by AO3 policies, for the record.
If you would like to donate and receive a commission of your choosing, please check out our donation form! Commissions do scale with donation size, so if you can donate a larger sum, you will receive more! However, if you donate a million $1 donations to try and receive a million fics, you will be limited in how many you receive.
Please, reblog and share as much as you can, and continue speaking out for the freedom and peace of Palestine. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
Even after all this time and awareness, it feels like asexuality is still not treated like a proper sexuality. Recently had a girl tell me that she was at a place where she ��felt so asexual’ because all the other girls were so beautiful and guys were ignoring her because of it. She didn’t know I was asexual and I didn’t take offence (I know she didn't meant it in a malicious way) but it does feel uncomfortable that people are using ‘asexual’ in lieu of ‘unattractive' or 'lacking sexual appeal.' It's really giving 90's/early 2000's slang of using 'gay' to mean 'lame.' Even shows like Brooklyn 99 which took immense pride in being progressive with their comedy, had an episode where one of the characters says "Oh, and I'm sorry if we implied you're both asexual nerds who can only be friends with service animals."
I have mentioned this before also, when I talked about how I feel like people are more comfortable erasing the identities of canonical aro/ace characters in media but act like it's unacceptable with other sexualities... but it does feel like asexuality (and aromanticism tbh) are still not considered 'real' sexualities. In the case of shipping fictional characters, I understand there is nuance to that issue and so don't want to get into it, but it does kinda add to my point.
Why is it that people treat asexuality like it's not a sexuality? Why is it that when I come out to people I'm met with insistence that I'm wrong about my sexuality, that I'm 'self diagnosing' (it's not a medical condition), that I'm probably 'just inexperienced' or haven't 'met the right person' or have a hormone issue? Why can't people just accept that it's a sexuality like any other??
people need to realise that a poor little meow meow must be a character who has committed atrocities you cannot poor little meow meow a good guy that’s not how this works
YOU WENT TO REN FAIR AS ARTHUR JESTER!???? YOU LIVING MY DREAM IM SO HAPPY WHAT
Yes!!!! I did! I believe I sent these to your fanart years and years ago, but I still have the costume, even if I think it’s a little small for me now! There’s some additional pictures here that I don’t think I sent then either!
My mother taught me how to use a sewing machine for this project! I also wasn’t smiling much for that photoshoot, but you better believe I was grinning—and totally silent—for the whole renfair! It was incredible, people thought I was part of the cast, I had a brief rivalry with another jester and a whimsical friendship with a trio of fairies, all without a single word spoken. Honestly I should do it again, get a shirt and pants that are in my size and reuse the skirt and hat and wings.
