Yes, I know that, but do YOU know that aces and aros in relationships are still aces and aros? Do you internalize that? Are you aware that we don't just suddenly turn straight, or gay or anything else?
Yes, even demis
Are you aware that a sex repulsed asexual will still be sex repulsed even in a relationship, and so, might never fuck you?
Are you aware that a romance repulsed aro will still be romance repulsed even in a seemingly normative relationship and might not like doing typical romantic gestures and activities?
Are you aware that a sex neutral or positive asexual might not actually be sexually attracted to you at all even if they do fuck you?
Are you aware that a romance neutral or positive aro might not actually be romantically into you even if they are comfortable with typical romantic gestures?
Are you aware that our identities are just as permanent as yours?
I don't know if you’re familiar with the Fraggles (they’re from the same brand as The Muppets, Sesame Street, etc.). The series had its heyday in the 1980s, but the reboot on Prime recently started, and its second season appeared a few days ago. It is intended mainly for children, but adults can also have fun. I, 24, watch it with my parents, we are very attached.
This new season has a very interesting episode. One of the characters (my favourite 💚) has a problem because he felt like he would like to change his appearance to match who he feels like. The dress and ponytail appeal to him. Then again, he wouldn't want to dress like that every day - some days he'd prefer his regular shirt. He is afraid that his friends will not accept him as he is. On the other hand, he would not like others to judge his entire person by the appearance he chooses on a given day.
In addition, in this episode he spends time with a character who had such thoughts much earlier and dealt with it by deciding that he would choose a name and it would describe him, not how he would express himself on a given day, because it is changeable and this variability is what best says who he is.
Apart from them, there is also a guest character, a glittery guy from the older generation, who explains how important it is to live in harmony with ourselves and that it is good to allow ourselves to be happy, not limiting ourselves to what others expect from our sense of identity etc. etc.
There are also side plots, including: a guy who, according to the tradition of his species, must choose one of two boxes and the one he chooses will define him for the rest of his life. He decides that no box fits him and he wouldn't want them to describe him (there is also lovely family support, although it took his father a while).
I think it's great
It’s Fraggle Rock Back to the Rock season 2 episode 5
I am literally the last person to even entertain the idea of Hunter dying (denial is strong with this one) but if there comes a moment when they have to separate and Hunter gives Omega this look
knowing it could very well be the last time he sees her? When he pushes her into Crosshair's arms, telling her she needs to go but she refuses, telling him she wants to stay with him, like in this scene?
people say folks with adhd struggle with "delayed rewards" aka long term goals and as such we tend to focus more on short term rewards. what they don't talk about is that at when we Do accomplish long term goals we don't actually feel anything proportionate to the amount of work we did to achieve it. In my head I suffered for a while and then money spontaneously appeared in my bank account.
