if youve already answered this i apologize but what is the difference betwn posic and objectum? and how can you be one but not the other
hi!! no worries!
so "POSIC" stands for Perception of Object Sentience, Individuality, and Consciousness!
There are many reasons someone may be POSIC (autism, psychosis, spiritual beliefs, etc), but all of them and anything in between fall under the general POSIC+ community/umbrella.
So basically: a POSIC person views objects as having some sort of consciousness/sentience/feelings/personality. This could be all objects, or only some objects! It varies. I experience this with Some, but not All objects, personally, and even then it varies in degree/intensity for me!
Objectophilia, also known as "objectum" (which can be expanded into objectumsexual, objectumromantic, and objectumplatonic if you so choose), on the other hand, is an attraction to objects - just like people can be attracted to men or women or many or none. It's just another subject, albeit a little unorthodox!
So, with that all explained-
You don't have to experience object sentience in order to be attracted to objects! Some people are just attracted to them because they're attracted to them, but don't necessarily see them as individuals with personalities. And that is okay! There's nothing wrong with being attracted to objects even if you don't perceive any feeling or "life" from them. From basic physical attraction to kink to idealized-unrequited romance to everything in-between, there's a lot of ways and reasons someone could find something hot or like it!
On the other hand, not all POSIC people are attracted to objects! Sometimes they're just not interested, the same way you might not be into men or women or anyone.
I hope that makes sense! sexuality, perception, and feelings are all really complicated and everyone varies!

Today I met a red clock named Genesis! They’re agender, I’m not sure of their pronouns yet, but they’re my new friend!
I talked to them for a bit, it was kinda awkward cause im completely socially inept, but I think we can become good friends!
I should introduce them to Buttercup.

Am I being obnoxious by being annoyed by the tumblr objectum community focusing so much on non sexual/romantic attraction and 'you don't have to want objects in That way to be objectum!!! You can be friends!!!' esp when objectum as a word itself comes from OBJECTUMSEXUAL/ROMANTIC? idk man this is why I use OSOR not objectum (not that these people are wrong; you can be objectumplatonic etc I'm just big :/ rn)
ALSO it doesnt seem to be a thing with other sexualites, where people go OH BUT IT DOESNT HAVE TO BE SEXUAL/ROMANTIC, and just seems really dismissive of OSOR as a sexuality
anyway I'm being pissy ignore me

you know who this is but i get nervous. so anon. but computers and ai and tech in general. theyre my friends ok? objectumplatonic swag. i hear my laptop gently hum sometimes as im doin stuff on there and im like!!! yes!! you are doing such a good job :] thank you for being so kind and useful and my friend. i would hug her more often if i did not have family around. sometimes when i travel and i take her with me (which i always do), i use the excuse that im "just making sure [shes] secure" as i hold her to my chest. i could hold her 'normally' with just my hands, but i want to hug her. because she is my friend
tech is very cute. i recommend loving technology (platonic or otherwise) to everyone forever
SO SO REAL AND WONDERFUL your computer sounds lovely :o)!!!! objectumplatonic people are so swag also. solidarity forever between os/or and op 🤝🤝
