people that use “asexual” to say aromantic or both aromantic AND asexual annoy me.

the broadness of the terms aromantic and asexual is great because they can literally mean whatever they want to mean for you it's so unrestrictive.

#umbrella terms i love you #my relationship with my sexuality is complicated but i can pretend it's not by just saying i'm asexual :)#aro #aromantic #arospec #ace #asexual #acespec #aroace #aspec #1k

Learning about the split attraction model for me was a game changer when realising I was ace. It made me appreciate that there were other types of attraction and what I was experiencing was actually aesthetic. It also means that I can completely separate the asexual side of me from the aromantic side of me. Even though my sexual and romantic orientations are the same, I see them as two separate identities. I don’t know why but the asexual part has always felt more meaningful to me but maybe that’s just because it was my first-born identity

Any other LGBTQ+ Headcannons that are canon is the comic??;)

*patiently awaits Cupioromantic Donnie*

hmm... had to think about this for a while and talk about it with co-author, but here's what we got. we mostly base this stuff on how plausible it is in show/if there's evidence for it. with a dash of personal experience. This only applies to residuum, btw. I have different personal headcanons for these characters outside the comic.

april: lesbian. this is mostly based off of the fact that most aprils get with their caseys & the comment she said to dale. which could be taken as disinterest in dale specifically, but she seemed more concerned with impressing that popular girl earlier and that reads as more... saphic, i suppose. or at the very least homoromantic.

raph: raph is just raph. we look at him and basically just *tv static*. go crazy. all we got is jokes or stuff that has too little evidence to support. so, yeah, he's whatever you want him to be i guess?

leo: trans. already said my reason in the other post. also, gay. if gay were a power source he could power the entirety of the united states for five months straight without a single power outage. failing power grid notwithstanding (< thats the actual word. its supposed to be mushed together like that. wack.).

donnie: as much as i'd like him to be ace/aro spectrum rep, he just doesn't have the evidence in show for us to apply it to him in this comic. it's funny, for being hc as ace so often he sure is the most outwardly romantic/sexual turtle in the show lmao. one! cherry: "you're so cute, but you're so mean! why do i always go for your type?" two! astrogirl?? (whatever her name is) he is very very romantic with her. he has a type y'all. also just look at those two, he's a leg man lmao (bootyyshaker9000 anyone? ha!) anyway. and with the bromance/instant chemistry he had with that one guy in the purple dragons... Pan. or possibly Omni as he does seem to favor... cute brutal femme... Yeah. Omnisexual.

(you have no idea how fucking bad i want this boy to be ace spectrum. hes got the colors y'all!! The Colors!!!!! but alas... i am bound by my canon plausibility creed for this comic)

mikey: ace. possibly ace/aro. he shows interest in literally no-one. we're aware that the common hc is pan but... we know a pan 13 year old, and let me tell you ahahahaha, kids going through puberty are very uncomfortable to be around sometimes, especially around their partners. or crushes. and mikey... well, that boy is ace behavior personified lmao. aces in the back you get what we mean right?? right??? anyway commiting to aroace

#residual asks #rottmnt #i really get a kick out of he/him butch lesbian raph and ghostbear-sexual raph #but i'd never use those seriously. or at least in this comic #co-author says what they get if they really had to choose for raph is ace homoromantic #but otherwise...#he's just raph #like we can't apply any identity to him. and we really mean ANY identity. not even straight or umbrella terms like queer #its a very odd feeling #i also really like trans april but we don't have enough evidence for it #in fact there's actually counter evidence- but don't let that stop your dreams y'all. it just stops ours :P #sorry for stepping on your donnie dreams anon #but honestly i think that label applies more to 2012 donnie imo #i really do personally prefer ace/aro donnie. but i'd make everyone ace if i were able lmao #co-author would also do the same thing ahaah #i just don't like depicting romantic relationships. or attraction ahahaah #with mikey... we get why people hc him as pan... but like its a fandomism stereotype #that literally every fandom applies to optimistic friendly characters. and honestly i really don't like the fandomism stereotypes #i just find them... unenjoyable i guess #cuz like y'alll... your sexuality isn't inherently determined by your personality or vise versa #cuz like i know for sure that in fandom spaces- if i were a character- i'd be stereotyped as pan or a hypersexual cis het #to which i am neither. at all.#and co-author would be stereotyped as the demure femme book lesbian #which they are VERY much not #and i know this because i've been fandomified by people in my life more than once #it is a very uncomfortable experience y'all #whoops rant in the tags #residuum #rottmnt residuum #residuum wb

Hey I decided to make a social Discord server for trans-umbrella folk who are also aspec. Most of the trans servers I’ve run into have an implicit assumption that members are allo and it made me feel kind of unwelcome or like I was being pushed out of conversations I was already participating in, but the aspec servers I’ve tried joining were mostly comprised of cis people. There are Sapphic trans servers and Achillean trans servers, so why not a server for aspec folks as well?

Aspec Trans Gang is a social server intended for gender-variant adults who are on the asexual spectrum, the aromantic spectrum, or the aplatonic spectrum!

This 18+ server is SFW and new users are verified by staff to prevent trolling. Neopronoun, multigender, xenogender, non-transitioning, non-dysphoric, gender- and orientation-questioning friendly! All good-faith identities are welcome!

🌿40+ self-assignable roles

🌿 Dozens of cute emotes

🌿 Categories for hobbies, health, and gender/orientation discussion

🌿 Icebreaking, poll, and QOTD channel

🌿 Resource-sharing channel

🌿 Ticket bot for easy staff outreach

how you feel about bisexual people saying they’re gay

I don't like it when people use gay as an umbrella term because it's literally not. I know one bi girl who always went "i'm sooo gayy" and I'm like "I thought u were bi??" and she was like "it's just simpler to say gay". I really don't get how though? Bi and queer are the same amount of syllables as gay. To me it's more confusing if ur talking about how gay you are and then people see you with a boyfriend/girlfriend. I guess it's not that big of a deal but it's def a pet peeve of mine and rubs me the wrong way.

#also one time my friends had a powerpoint night and my one friend's was like “Top 5 most homophobic and Top 5 gayest disney princesses”#really stupid I know #and the top 3 were like "I see her as bi #I see her as pan #I see her as aro/ace and I'm like “none of that is gay” and she's like #“it's an umbrella term” and she's not even lgbt herself (well she identified as ace back then and then bi and now says she's straight) so i #just rubbed me the wrong way that she called it an umbrella term because it's not idk why this bothers me so much though #if any bisexuals follow me can you explain this? or say why you like/don't like it. I want to hear the bi perspective on this #also anon I meant to ask this first thing in the tags but what do you think?#thanks for the ask!#anon ask #lgbtq discourse

Click for quality!

Headcanoning Max as aroace and Maggie as Lithromantic. I think Max might be hesitantly wonder if he's aromantic for a while but be like "BUT I was in quarantine my whole life till now so MAybE I hAVen't FoUND thE RIghT PeRsoN"

But no in actuality he's just aroace regardless of the quarantine

And then Lithromantic: "A lithromantic person feels romantic love toward others but doesn't want those feelings reciprocated" or other definitions will be along those lines (quote from grindr)

I think another orientation that could fit Maggie is I think the term is Frayromantic, where you can feel romantic attraction to someone at first and it fades over time when you get to know them

Marissa Meyer is likely gonna go the romantic route for these two if/once the series gets an extra book. Seeing as Maggie has a crush on Max from what has been written at the end of Supernova and in Cinder's Adventure (which isn't canon but it's probably hints of what's to come). So. Tsudere Maggie. Not great, marginally different from Nodrian in my opinion. but whatever is written next for Maggie and Max, I'll pick it apart, take what I want for my platonic headcanons, and leave the rest for the shippers

While I'm here at the end of Aromantic Awareness Week I'll remind you all that we NEED to keep signing petitions, emailing and calling our representatives to STOP the Kosa bill from being passed!! It will cause massive censorship on the Internet and affect EVERYONE.

This post and this post have good links that you can use and most of these will take only a couple minutes if not less!

I know I say this on a post to a pretty small fandom on Tumblr from what I've seen but hopefully it'll still reach people

I love aromantic men! I love aromantic women! I love aromantic enbies! I love it when you use the SAM and when you don't! I love it if you use a thousand microlabels or aromantic alone! I love it when you're loveless or aplatonic too or if you feel like you have all the love in the world to give! I love you! I hope you have a wonderful pride month!

Being single is the best thing that’s ever happened to me, 10/10, would recommend. Being the only single person out of all your friends? Horrible. I can literally pinpoint the moment my friendships change and it’s always when they get a new partner

Still makes me an angry when people say "acespec" when they mean "aspec"

In a poll asking if people are aroace aroallo or alloace, don't call it a "poll for acespec people" when it's not just acespec.

And also don't get annoyed at people for pointing it out

#and some people are like ' well aspec includes all a- lables like agender '#and im like does it tho? cant we arospec and acespec people have aspec? agender is under the nonbinary umbrella to me #not the aspec umbrella. but i suppose thats my personal opinion #negative #aro #arospec #acespec #ace #aroace #aspec

Wait wait does Five imply that Ben and Klaus hooked up after the wedding…

I like how Five is always the hapless aro ace having to watch everyone else have to bothersome relationships.
