Sometimes you'll see a character that's not canonically aromantic but when you see them shipped with another character you think "ok this feels like aro erasure"

a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isnβt social media this is community.

right before you have major life commitments is the perfect time to get into a new fandom
You deserve love now. Not once you lose weight. Not once you accomplish that thing. Not once you move. Not once you get on medication. Not once you start therapy. Not once you get that job. Not once you're more like them. Now. You don't have to earn the right to be loved. You deserve it right now, and always have.
the sexiest thing a man can be is only an extension of someone else. the sexiest thing a woman can be is angry. this is true
"just write a little every day" ok but what if i write nothing for 3 weeks and then suddenly type like iβm being hunted by god

being as i am an idiot, and having been one my whole life, i just wanna say that i find it very easy to do nothing, and go nowhere. i eat chocolate late at night in the dark. i stand in the garden also. and iβm often waiting for something to happen. and iβm stupid.
The BEST trope is when a character tells another βletβs run away together, we can leave all of this behind and start a new life somewhereβ and gets rejected. And then the rest of the tragedy unfolds
Me: *seeing a doctor* Did the test come back positive?
Doctor: *has a doctorate in English Lit* Iβm sorry, itβs a little more challenging than we thought. We analyzed your imagery, and it appears that you symbolize the fleeting nature of the American dream
Me: oh god

Are you alive
Donβt ask me no personal shit like this
People have real issues understanding why the absence of romance and sexual desire is such a big deal. "No one bothers you over your sexual orientation! You're basically a straight person!" No wrong. The older you get the more your life is considered a failure for failing to find a life partner and get your 2.5 kids in.
Like people make fun of middle aged women for not getting married or being divorced or "always the bridesmaid never the bride" and all like "oh she's desperate! No one wants her! Old maid!' but they become straight up hostile and upset when you tell them you never want to date.
Being unpartnered after your mid twenties is just like "oh what's wrong with you" and "don't worry you'll find your guy" "aren't you afraid of being alone" "who will take care of you" "you're running out of time to have kids" and no matter what you are or aren't people straight up don't understand that you don't want them.
People tend to forget that queer is a word that means weird, and if you step out of heteronormativity you're weird in the eyes of the heteonormative society, wether you want different relationships or no relationships at all.
The core wound of this demographic is being rejected and being relentlessly asked to stop your bullshit relative to romance and sex, and to get back in the ranks. The aroace definitely qualify.
And since being rejected is obviously a veeeeery common trauma in the queer community, and people tend to reenact unhealed patterns, it's not rare to see queer people rejecting other queer people with shit like biphobia, being picky with who "qualify" as trans, dismissing aroaces etc...
Let's put rejection somewhere on a dusty shelf for a while and see how it feels. I'm sure it's freeing.
Also being aroace does not exempt you from having to avoid unwanted advances, threats or cohersion, medical neglect, pressuring for uneccesary medical intervention and gaslighting, issues with bodily autonomy and reproductive resources, conversion therapy, bioessentialism, sexism, misogyny and issues with legal autonomy when it comes to things like home ownership estate planning, medical power of attourney and adoption.
I feel like the reason people often get so fucking tilted about us being aro and/or ace is because they value their romantic/sexual relationships so highly and sacrifice so much to acquire and maintain them, and to see someone just not care about any of that probably feels like a bit of a kick in the teeth, like they might've done it all for nothing. It's the same kind of reaction you see in skinny people who place a lot of value on their conventionally attractive bodies when they encounter someone who doesn't feel appropriately guilty about being fat; they put a lot of effort into earning their place of privilege in society and it rankles them when you refuse to recognise it by playing along.
Anyway, that shit is all made up, and so is its supposed "value", so do whatever you want forever. Fuck 'em. π
