Ao3 as the quiet, unassuming book nerd that's secretly freaky as fuck

The Black Nerd. A common character type, the nerd will always be very interested in all things nerdy: science, video games, mathematics, etc. In an continued effort to combat stereotypes, the Black Nerd will be lack athleticism, probably being asthmatic (the nerdiest of conditions). The Black Nerd will dress smartly, suspenders and bow ties. They’ll always talk smart too, using proper English with complex words.

Now, I don’t have a problem with a black character being a nerd, indeed black people are a people; we aren’t all the same and we all have varying personalities. The problem I have is that too often we see a distinct disconnect between Blackness and the Black Nerd. The Black Nerd doesn’t listen to hip hop or rap, only classical music. The Black Nerd only has white friends, the only other black characters are into not nerdy stuff. The Black Nerd never ever uses AAVE at any time in any context.

Well @dumbey, seems we’re in similar boats

how can you make it Tender?

how can you make it Homoerotic?

how can you make it Implicitly intimate?

how can you make it Noticeably a metaphor for sex?

As you can see there are 3 main kinds of colorblindness. Deuteranomly, Protanopia, and Tritanopia. I will also talk about Achromatopsia but let's start with the big three.

Deuteranomly: This colorblindness is mostly caused by a genetic mutation that affects the green cone cells in the retina making is hard for a person to distinguish between red and green colors. This means the person mainly sees yellows and blues.

Protanopia: This colorblindness is similar to deuteranomly in that it is a genetic mutation that affects the red cone cells in the retina making the person inable to detect red. But they can still see green though not as vibrantly.

Tritanopia: This colorblindness is rare but still more common than Achromatopsia. Tritanopia affects the ability to perceive blue and green colors. This colorblindness, like the others, is caused by a genetic mutation that affects the blue-sensitive cones in the retina.

Achromatopsia: This is among the rarest forms of colorblindness and causes a person to see the world in only black and white. Achromatopsia is an inherited disorder caused by problems with the cone cells in the retina. But unlike the other colorblindness conditions I listed before, Achromatopsia has a couple other symptoms. Photophobia: Extreme sensitivity to bright light and glare, Nystagmus: Involuntary, back-and-forth eye movements, and Central blind spot (scotoma): A small blind spot in the center of the visual field.

I am Jaafar from Gaza. I am currently in northern Gaza, and we have not yet been displaced to the south. Things are very difficult here — the cost of moving to the south is $1,000, and a single tent also costs $1,000, if we can even find a place in southern Gaza. The south is overcrowded, and renting a plot of land costs $1,000 per month, or even more depending on the area. 🙂😢

I started a donation campaign in the middle of the war and received good support, but due to personal circumstances, I recently created a new link, and unfortunately, I have only received a small amount of donations so far. 😓💔 I appeal to you to help me with my new campaign and donate whatever you can 🥺😭. Every amount you give will save the lives of my family and me and may help us cover the cost of moving to southern Gaza! 😓 Thank you, and I pray that God blesses you and provides for you 🧡🫂
