[no-fear-queers]

Made this while playing Stardew Valley and procrastinating on the thing I was writing 🙃🙃

(The art’s not the greatest thing I’ve done but I tried—no I’m not looking for sympathy on that, I’m just saying I’m better at writing than drawing lol)

[no-fear-queers]

Alright y'all. RBing this cuz I wanna point out that I have started writing that thing I wanted to put on here. (Took me long enough, I know.) Now, I'm not sure when I'll finish the first chapter but hopefully, it's before the end of February or March. What I'm writing's called "The Rainbow Sheep" which might sound dumb but it was the first thing that came to mind.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To give a basic idea of what it's about I'll tell you this (I don't want to give too much information out before anyone can actually read it):

It's about these three people who've -what you could say- been "cast out" of their families/homes for not being cishet-allo. When they first meet, it's just the three of them longing for a place to call home. A place where they can live freely without fearing for their physical and mental well-being.

This then leads to them creating some kind of secret society where any member of the LGBTQIA+ community can be themselves without being judged, threatened or harmed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Again that's just a basic idea of what it's about. I don't want to give too much away as to not ruin it for anyone. I also want to point out that it's going to start off a bit slow, but it'll get more interesting as the story goes on. So, yknow, it might not seem interesting at first but it'll get there.

Also, a word of warning: the beginning of chapter one may not make sense but I PROMISE that part is important. You'll just need to give me some time to work things out.

I may also provide introductory posts for each character when a chapter introduces them so you can have an idea of what they're like. (Really, it's just some basic information about the characters.) I might also put it on WattPad just for the sake of it. I haven't quite figured it out yet.

(Gonna give this a week so if I do decide to do it, it’ll give me time to figure out characters, plot and whatever else.)

I am asexual! Proudly ace <3

I was curious about your post "bi aces are valid"

Bisexual-asexual is a contradiction, do you mean biromantic asexual? or i don't know, please explain 🩷😭 thank youuu

Bi aces wasn’t meant to be read as Bisexual Asexual. It was meant to be read as Biromantic asexual. At the time of me making the post I hadn’t thought of putting “biro” instead of “bi” as I usually just use Bi for both bisexual AND biromantic. (Though, I can see how some may find that contradictory. And I can see how one may misinterpret bi ace as bisexual asexual.)

Here's Something About Me

(Idk I'm bored and thought y'all might wanna learn a little more about me.)

Okay, so hi(?)

I'm no_fear_queers (it's the same on Instagram), but you can call me Ellis. Nicknames I accept are Eli, Reg, Reggie, Frank and Frankie. (These are coming from the middle names I gave myself. Which are: Reginald and Francis. And no, I will not be telling you what my last name is.) Now, Shrimpy -which is the nickname I'm using on Instagram- is a nickname given to me by a friend when we were freshmen in high school. And I'm only comfortable with my friends calling me Shrimpy. I was given this nickname due to the fact that I'm shorter than all my friends. (Well, shorter AND scrawnier.)

As of September 23rd 2023 (the day I'm writing this), I am 21 years old. I am an introvert with social anxiety, depression and multiple sensory issues I will not be elaborating on.

I'm transmasculine and agender. My pronouns are they/he/it. Although, I've been having a slight pronoun crisis for the past few months. But at the moment, I'm pretty content with they/he/it with more of a preference for He/Him.

I'm unlabeled, queer, angled aroace, and ambiamorous. My unlabeled and queer labels are referring to my aesthetic and sensual orientation. (Seeing how I experience aesthetic and sensual attraction.) The ace and aro identities I identify with are grey-aegosexual and proxyromantic. I'll get into what those two terms mean in a second.

I won't give too long of a list of things I don't like. Mostly because my dislike list is pretty long. The things I dislike the most -besides conservatives and queerphobia of any kind- are bright colours, bright lights (especially when they're flashing lights--mostly due to a sensory issue), sweet potatoes, rom-coms and weddings. (Mind you, I don't outright HATE weddings. I just don't like them. Especially since I'm not much of a people person.)

My favourite shows are NCIS, Bones, Criminal Minds, Bob's Burgers, Futurama, Supernatural, Creeped Out, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen, and Hotel Hell.

My favourite movies are The Bob's Burgers Movie, Renfield, Demonic, Smile, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. (Mind you, I like watching horror movies in general but there's only ever been like the two I've actually enjoyed watching and liked more than others.)

My favourite colours are black, red, grey, blue and green.

My favourite video games are Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Skyrim, Cooking Champions, Terraria, Minecraft, Animal Crossing New Horizons, The Sims 3 and The Sims 4.

My two favourite things to do are write and play video games. And my favourite holiday is Halloween.

Anyway, on to the definitions I promised:

Grey-aegosexual is a microlabel for ace-spec people who partially relate to aegosexuality, but experience it infrequently or very weakly, and may not feel they fully relate to the aegosexual label. One may very rarely enjoy or get aroused by sexual content or specific people, but only under specific circumstances, and are otherwise sex-neutral or sex-repulsed.

Proxyromantic is a form of romantic attraction in which one has a connection with a romantic orientation, or with the concept of romantic orientations, but does not have the will and/or the ability to figure that romantic orientation out for themselves. Proxyromantic could also be considered a microlabel under the term quoiromantic, the main difference being that one feels as though they have a romantic orientation and understands the concept of romantic attraction, but they don't have the will and/or ability to figure it out.

(This turned out to be longer and more of a mess than I had originally planned.)

[no-fear-queers]

Y’all ever have that one actor that gives you some kind of ick? Not in the sense that they did anything wrong; but in the way that makes you question how people think they’re attractive? Or is that just me being Aroace? Cuz I’ll never understand how people think Ryan Gosling of all people is attractive.

[no-fear-queers]

Y’all ever look at a really attractive person and get that Angled Aroace feeling of “I can’t tell if I want kiss/hug you or be you”?

No? Just me?

Okay.

FRIENDLY REMINDER #4

PEOPLE WHO IDENTIFY WITH XENOGENDERS ARE NOT HURTING ANYONE. JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THEIR GENDER DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO DISRESPECT THEM OR TO TELL THEM WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR IDENTITY. IF YOU FEEL THE NEED TO CHANGE SOMEONE ELSE'S IDENTITY, THEN YOU NEED TO THINK ABOUT WHY YOU FEEL THREATENED BY SOMEONE THAT'S NOT HURTING YOU.

[no-fear-queers]

FRIENDLY REMINDER #3

THOSE WHO USE NEOPRONOUNS AND IT/ITS PRONOUNS ARE NOT HURTING ANYONE. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT, THEN THAT'S ON YOU. PEOPLE WHO USE IT/ITS DO NOT NEED TO CHANGE THEIR PRONOUNS TO ACCOMMODATE YOUR DISCOMFORT. PEOPLE WHO USE NEOPRONOUNS DO NOT NEED TO CHANGE THEIR PRONOUNS TO ACCOMMODATE YOUR DISCOMFORT. YOUR DISCOMFORT IS ON YOU, NOT THOSE THAT USE PRONOUNS THAT DIFFER FROM SHE/HER, HE/HIM AND THEY/THEM.

FRIENDLY REMINDER #2

I ALSO WANNA ADD:

ABROSEXUALS DO NOT "ChOoSe" THEIR SEXUALITY! JUST BECAUSE THEIR SEXUALITY IS FLUID/FLUCUATES DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY CHANGE THEIR MINDS ABOUT THEIR ORIENTATION OR THAT THEY'RE "MaKiNg A dIfFeReNt DeCiSiOn" FOR THEIR SEXUALITY! THEIR SEXUALITY IS FLUID! WHICH MEANS THAT IT CHANGES ON ITS OWN! THE ABROSEXUALS HAVE NO CONTROL OVER IT!

GENDERFLUID PEOPLE ALSO DO NOT "ChOoSe" THIER GENDER OR CAN'T MAKE UP THEIR MINDS ABOUT IT! THEIR GENDER FLUCTUATES ON ITS OWN! THEIR GENDER IS FLUID! THEREFORE THE PERSON'S GENDER WILL CHANGE ON ITS OWN WHETHER THE PERSON WANTS IT TO OR NOT!

[no-fear-queers]

FRIENDLY REMINDER!

Today's friendly little reminder is:

JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE USES MICROLABELS (i.e. Demigirl instead of Nonbinary, Demisexual instead of Asexual, Frayromantic instead of Aromantic, etc.) ARE NOT HURTING ANYONE!

ALL THEY'RE DOING IS USING A LABLE (i.e. Demigirl, Demisexual, Frayromantic) THAT'S MORE SPECIFIC TO WHAT THEY'RE EXPERIENCING!

IF YOU CAN'T RESPECT SOMEONE FOR USING MICOLABELS THEN YOU HAVE NO PLACE ON MY PAGE!

Thank you for attending my TED Talk.
