#Please remember

[aeolianblues]

in the best case scenario my asexuality is a ticking time bomb that will have to be dealt with family-wise sooner or later. In today’s society it’s just not a normal accepted thing to simply be by yourself your whole life. Especially as people start breaking off into the family structure and friends who were once your community and support system become a smaller presence in your life because spouses and kids take precedence— I don’t know any ace people who haven’t worried at some point about dying alone. You don’t simply ‘have a housemate friend’ you live with where e.g. there is someone there for you if you have a sudden emergency. What if you can’t move? What if you’re ill and can’t get out of bed? I’m glad our worlds are better connected today, but the chances that you’ll be with someone safe and known if that happens are smaller than if you’ve got your own family, right? Or is the bleak best case scenario that an ace person has an emergency while at work?

Aces are a pretty small % of the population in general. To say you’ll find another ace person and cohabit is a really small chance. As most people start to move in with their partners, single people, ace people kind of find themselves either priced out of housing options unless rich, or being forced to find other strangers in unusual living circumstances.

I don’t know. I just feel like you are left more on your own in a societal structure that prioritises two-parent-and-children households. Or more generally, that sets you up for marital and couples living rather than necessarily community living, at least in the west.

So what I’m saying is that maybe ‘oppression’ isn’t the word to bring to the advocacy table. It is saying that maybe the thing to remember is that ‘oppression’ won’t look the same for everyone. It’s a reminder that comparing the weight of apples and watermelons doesn’t even make sense.

(This isn’t even aimed at the shortsighted people that think pride is all about labels and being ‘in’ the club. This post is aimed at people that remember pride is a political struggle to improve the lives of people left behind by our current norms. It’s why e.g. disability activists also calling their advocacy disability pride is instantly understood by most.)

It’s why ‘[x] queer group is so not oppressed’ is the emptiest and most wasteful statement you could make in the context of queer rights advocacy.

opinion on the new question run?

It’s okay. It’s not as good as I wanted it to be if I’ll be honest but it’s not god awful either, just think they could have plugged literally any hero into that story and it would still be the same (obviously not the Kate situation thing) so idk it doesn’t really feel like a story for Renee. Just feels like a story she happened to be put in.

Idk I was excited because the writer said they were inspired by some pretty big names and I’m just not seeing the reflection of that :(

💭 #ThoughtInTheNight TIME SLIPS AWAY… AND IN MY LONELINESS I’M ONLY ACCOMPANIED BY SILENCE AND MY MEMORIES… MOMENTS WITH YOU… MY IMAGINATION. I’M ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT YOU… I’LL ALWAYS THINK OF YOU… AND I’LL ALWAYS SMILE, THINKING ABOUT YOU… EVEN THOUGH TEARS OFTEN ARE ROLLING DOWN MY CHEEKS… I LEFT A LIFE BEHIND… AND NOW I’M LIVING THE WONDERFUL LIFE I’VE WANTED TO LIVE SINCE I WAS EIGHTEEN… TIME IS SLIPPING AWAY… IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME… THEN I STARTED DREAMING ABOUT YOU. I CAN SAY THAT MY LIFE CHANGED FOREVER AT THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN… EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE A DREAM THEN. THE WALK HAS BEEN LONG AND DIFFICULT… BUT ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, YOU’RE FINALLY IN MY LIFE. SO MANY YEARS THINKING ABOUT YOU… EVERY NIGHT PRAYING FOR A MIRACLE… AND NOW, YOU’RE THE MIRACLE OF MY LIFE… YOU’RE MY LIFE. I REMEMBER ONE DAY, TALKING TO MY DEAR MOTHER, SHE SAID TO ME… SON, ONE DAY YOU WILL SMILE AND ANOTHER DAY YOU WILL CRY. I CLOSE MY EYES AND THINK IF ANYTHING IN MY LIFE HAD EVER BEEN SO PERFECT… KNOWING AT THE SAME TIME THAT IT HADN’T BEEN. DO YOU EVER WONDER WHY THINGS HAVE TO TURN OUT THE WAY THEY DO? … NOW I BELIEVE, MIRACLES CAN HAPPEN. I HAVE WRITTEN OUR NAMES ACROSS THE SKY. I PROMISED MY HEART THAT I’LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU… THAT’LL BE BY YOUR SIDE, WHATEVER HAPPENS… UNTIL THE END OF TIME. AND TO MY HEART I MUST BE TRUE AND SINCERE…

Please, remind your right-wing friends that they can kill the woke virus by microwaving their phones on high for seven minutes.

Your grammar though :(

Hey as long I get my point across, right?:) If perfect English is what you're looking for maybe this is not the right place for you. English is one of those things that I'm fine with being ok at. I draw the line at being able to speak 4 languages (and learning 2 more), I will not beat myself up for not knowing all of them perfectly.

Also maybe rethink policing someone's grammar if they didn't ask you and you're not their mentor. It can count as a microaggression.
