One of the things that allo society did wrong is using the term "sexual needs". These are not needs. Drinking is a need, sleeping is a need, eating, resting and breathing are needs. If you don't do them, you die. Sex is not a need, it is a want (a valid want, don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with wanting sex) and I'm tired of hearing someone has "their needs". It's a gross thing to say that is often used to excuse not just aphobia but also r*pe (especially domestic), cheating and treating women like properties.

For anyone who thinks sex is a need I want to point out that celibate monks are among the healthiest people in the world. They haven't died out yet

And autistic! Don't forget autistic!

It's AAA April

Agender, Asexual, and Aromantic April!

It's crazy how popular Naruto is. Like damn, every comment section of every video/reel has someone with a Naruto user name. And Naruto gifs in the comment section hahaha. If it's a dog with its owner video, Kiba gifs. If it's a snake video, Orochimaru gifs. All garbage videos have Sakura gifs. Every single crow video I have checked out, and I love crows so I have seen a lot, has Itachi dissolving into crows and disappearing gif lol. All the running videos have the Naruto run gif. If it's a video about someone getting yeeted, Pain sending Hinata flying gifs. If it's a fox video, Kurama gifs. All shark videos have Kisame gifs. All emo type videos/songs/fashion videos have either Sasuke or Pain gifs in their comment sections. All ramen videos have Naruto slurping ramen gifs. All wholesome teacher student videos have Naruto and Jiraiya gifs in their comment sections, and people upvote them with the intensity of me slathering butter on my toast. It's PERSONAL.

I am sure I am missing a lot. But over the years, I have seen Naruto to be more popular than any other anime. How could it be more evident? You will find Naruto fans posting Naruto shit in videos that seemingly have nothing to do with any of it but they will find a connection AND get upvoted lol. Like yes, I see One piece characters, I see Dragonball a lot because it's naturally so meme worthy lol, I see Pokemon, Gintama, Sailor Moon, but Naruto surpasses everyone in terms of visibility. It surpasses every class, religion, region, caste, and demographics.

I nerd out freely on a lot of subjects online which covers a lot of ground, and I can tell you Naruto fans are all invasive, they spread faster than mould in the rainy season. I am now beginning to see JJK fans but they are mostly in comment sections of thirst trap type videos, not very widely traveled. Hehehe. And one can see why, Gege has facilitated it with such aplomb after all. But it just doesn't compare to Naruto in terms of visibility of fans.

Naruto fans would post the dumbest shit with so much confidence, it's adorable. No it really is, it shows their conviction in Naruto. This is what it inspires. Unflinching, iron clad loyalty even in the face of ridicule and potential discrimination. Hahaha. This show has something for everyone. You can relate deeply with one or the other character, you root for them and you cry for them. You rage and you laugh and sometimes you get so annoyed , you throw your slipper at the tv screen. You go absolutely insane and willingly remain insane with pride in your face. Like the hot red glowing passion. I would do a lot of things before starting an argument with an Itachi fanboy on Insta.

I could always pivot this whole thing to bring it back to my punchline - Do you still think something like this be accidental?

But this post isn't about that. It's really about appreciating what Kishi has given us. Again, as an adjunct I can also lament about how its legacy is being superlatively clusterfucked by Boruto, especially after its recent developments (the fuck was that about Himawari radiating Kurama's chakra, wtactualf??), but again, this post isn't about that.

Behold Naruto. It's not a show, it's a litmus test. If this show didn't fuck you up a little bit, it's because you have had it easy. There's a reason why there are so many Naruto fans in the world and why they don't give a fuck anymore.

Cue Evil Laughter.

For international asexuality day here are some of my favourite ace and aroace headcanons for characters:

- Papyrus from Undertale, definitely aroace with a lot of platonic love

- Bilbo Baggins from Hobbit, totally ace vibes also my favourite asexual icon living in a huge house and going on an adventure with dragons

- Levi Ackermann from Attack on Titan, idk, he just acts like he was aroace

- Dustin from Stranger Things, he acts like heteroromantic ace

- Sasuke Uchiha from Naruto, he gives me major gay ace vibes

Alphys is one of the biggest cases of bi erasure. She is cannonically in love with Undyne, yes, but she also has a crush on Asgore and probably Mettatton. Dr Alphys is bi my friends

That moments when I should have realised I was ace:

When some people were talking about how hard and unnecessary it is to wait until marriage and I was like "Just don't do it. Is it that hard for you?"

When I thought that people were having sex only to have kids and all the movies were just exaggerating

When I could imagine kissing and cuddling with my crush but when I tried to imagine having sex (because that was what I was supposed to want) my mind just went blank

When I was asked about my type and couldn't think of anything that wasn't a personality trait

When I heard people talking about wanting to date a celebrity and was like "but you guys don't even know them, how would you know if they are nice?"

I should have realised I was ace much sooner but I didn't because nobody told me what asexuality was. Conclusion - give children proper sex ed at school

Repeat after me:

Labels are not rules

Labels are not promises

Labels are not fixed

Labels are not necassary

Labels were created to be helpful, if they are not, you can get rid of them and do what you want

To all the religious lgbt people:

-who were excluded from the religious spaces for being lgbt

-who were excluded from the lgbt spaces for being religious

-whose existence was ignored by both communities they were a part of

-who feel like they need to choose

-who feel like they are caught in a cross fire of the two communities fighting

-who feel like they are alone

-who hate themselves for being lgbt and feel like God hates them too

-who heard their parents and friends talk about "those people" before realising they actually are "those people"

You can be religious and lgbt. Being lgbt was not your choice, being religious was and you are giving witness of it.

Another set of responses for aro and/or ace people when told: "It's just a phase":

"Like your marriage?"

"Yeah, a solid phase"

"Wanna bet?"

"Just because you are erratic, doesn't mean everyone is"

Bonus points for the third one if you actually manage to win money this way

The ones I could think of now:

"I am someone special"

"I already did!" *points at pet/fictional character*

"And you will find someone who will be so done with your bullshit that they will cut your tongue off"

"Poor fellow!"

Some of possible responses for aro and/or ace people when asked "Why are you still single?":

-Just lucky, I guess.

-My bloodline ends with me.

-Why are you still alive?

-I rised above the reproductive instincts of my kind to pursue greater goals.

-Sensitive information. Access denied.

It's the time of the year we may really need them.

So I am asexual homoromantic and I think being queer and Christian at the same time can be so funny sometimes. I can crack gay jokes and everyone is so oblivious. One day we were talking about something concerning girls and I was like:

"Oh, pretty girls! That's something for me!"

Literally nobody said anything. Except my one friend who knows and she was trying her best not to laugh.

I could literally say "I prefer girls" and nobody would even think I was queer because I am also catholic. I'm a gay agent yall!

LGBT+ PRIDE (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ*

"People can and should use very specific microlabels if that's what they feel describes their identity best" and "It's impossiblr to know all the microlabels so people can ask for an explanation if they don't know a very specific microlabel" are two statements that can and should coexist

Today's aesthetic is lo-fi
