I think at some point in time we need to sit down and start explaining to artist who want to make a career out of art that there are FAR more options than just "living off of commissions" and "posting my art online and praying I get paid for it".

Okay, for aro awareness week, I need you all to start recognizing that:
NOT EVERYONE IN THE ARO COMMUNITY IS FROM THE UNITED STATES OR EUROPE.
Please, when we're having discussions about aphobia, allonormativity amatonormativity, and other issues for the love of god STOP PRETENDING THAT WE DON'T EXIST AND LISTEN TO US!
We aren't just your token aros that exist in the other side of the world just for you to prove that we are everywhere or whatever point you're trying to make, we are living, breathing human beings and members of the aro community and we deserve respect and to be remembered not as a point in your discourse but as equals.
I am sick and tired of people just assuming that everyone in the community is either from the United States or Europe and only centering those voices in the discussion. We exist too.

Were you okay with that decision the show made? I personally found it pretty satisfying even if the pacing was bit off due to only 8 episodes
Yes!!! One thing about me is that i love when my faves die, the most important thing a show can give you, to me anyways, is catharsis and i think they handled it in a way that was both meaningful and satisfying while still hurting. I think they also laid the ground work for Izzy's death really well throughout the season in the show getting darker and also all the Death Omens around him (the gun misfiring, him accepting who he is, the saint/martyr imagery around him, him recognizing and accepting his role on this ship is to the crew first and foremost beyond anything even Ed) and his speeches this season were just like. god. you can't say that kind of stuff if you're not expecting to die soon so yeah! I think they handled it well! I do think it could have been a bit longer but I'm not mad at it!! Also the way he didn't even FLINCH when he got shot HOT that is a man who knows he's been dead this whole time

Rules Update!
Sometimes I will use Japanese words in my reply. Just words like sensei (teacher), senpai (upperclassman), or adding “-san” etc. after names.
This is because I believe the way someone calls another is an important part of characterization. Especially with Katsuki.
If this bothers you, or if you find this ‘cringe’, do not rp with me
