Aro/aces Will Try To Explain Attraction And Wind Up With A Theoretical Model With Dimensions That Can

This funny

"Denial is a seductive mistress. And she's in my bed every night" has to be a great way to introduce the idea of being aromantic to people, so thanks for that!

i think one of the first times i realized i was aro(while immediately denying it) was when, a few years ago, a friend of mine kept hinting that she was poly and that she dates people other than her bf all the time. and she’s very flirty, literally with everyone, so i didn’t really think anything of it, until she started hinting at dating me.

and even though i was flattered and she’s great, like, dating her romantically would probs be amazing, i felt a little grossed about it. not by her. just the thought of dating with romantic intent. and so i played oblivious and pretended i didn’t hear any implications in what she was saying.

it surprised me at the time, bc here is someone i’m friends with, who’s funny and cute and very romantic if her bf has any say, and obviously attracted to me and was willing to date me, or at least fuck tbh, and all i could think about was how i needed to change the convo right now.

denial is a seductive mistress. and she’s in my bed every night.

Where's the juice tho?

Do y'all every have that moment in your life where you just wanna scream and cry for discernable reason? Yeah I am experiencing that rn and I don't know why

I've been thinking lately on how the death note works fundamentally with names, it's confirmed that legal names don't really factor at all, since why would an ancient book follow the law of man, but rather how you identify yourself (I think) so that got me thinking of people who refer to themselves by another name entirely, not theiregal name, but a name known only to them

As we approach college finals in the U.S. I feel it's important to remind people that no level of school failure is worth killing yourself over. Some failures have consequences. Some failures change the course of your life. But I promise it's not over.

If a career path you wanted to follow has closed because of your grades, it's ok to mourn. It's normal to be upset that goals you had are unattainable now, especially goals you've had for a long time. But you can recover. Even if you can't try again, you can find another path that's fulfilling.

If you want to keep forging down the path of academics, I'm rooting for you. Take the time you need to rest your brain. Remember that taking a semester, a year, or a few years off is normal and often healthy. Do what you need to face the next semester you take relaxed and ready.

If you've been bashing your head against the wall that is college and can't seem to make progress, it might be time to find a different path. No matter what people in your life are telling you, not getting a college education is not the end of the world. No one's approval is worth more than your life.

Every day dropouts and D students are living a life more beautiful than you could ever imagine. No amount of academic failure can take away the joy of being alive. If you're not feeling that joy right now, that's ok, but please hold on through this difficult time in your life. Things will get better.

This is specifically geared towards college students but definitely applies to anyone younger than that as well. This is not the end.

The decepticons are dysfunctional bc the head honcho is on crack, two of his subordinates are trying to usurp him, and is pretty chaotic

The burns are somewhat dysfunctional because they.... Yeah idk why but they just are

Language is cool

I still can't get over the fact that "deli" is short for "delicatessen"

Worldbuilding Idea: After an apocalyptic event that made the earth inhospitable, a civilisation is built around the worship and maintenance of a machine called "The Grand Eviscerator" which was originally used to turn biological waste to energy but was scaled up tremendously, now it is a gaping, churning machine that takes people and provides energy for the civilization to use

I relate to this on a level I cannot put into words
