MOGAI library

I did overestimate myself, my energy levels and workload - I can’t run this blog alone. Therefore I’m inviting you, the MOGAI community, to run this space with me. I mean, it’s only fair - I’m not the one who should decide whether something is worth putting up or not. And limiting this space to my availibity is exclusionary at best.

How can you help?

Click the submit button on the blog (or this link), get familliar with the submission guidelines and start submitting!

I can't do submissions, can I still help?

Yes, you can! If you browse through some posts, you'll notice that some have a "needs [a thing]" tag. This is what's missing from the post for various reasons - maybe I couldn't find it, or maybe it doesn't exist yet.

Definition: the degree of one’s aromanticism fluctuates over a period of time.

Conditions: (none)

Explanation: Aroflux is similar to genderflux in that how aromantic you feel tends to flux in and out in intensity. Some days you may feel apathetic toward romance, then others you might feel entirely romance-repulsed, and some days you’re just like romance? Yeah. Cool.

Here’s another explanation with a hilarious and approachable swinging ship ride analogy.

Etymology: (eng) flux - the act of flowing; a continuous moving on or passing by, as of a flowing stream.

Thanks so much! I (with the help of other awesome people) will do my best to keep updating this blog as accurately and comprehensively as possible. My mental health doesn’t allow me to do it as often as I would like to, but I’ll do my best.

In the meantime: if you would like to help, I’ve added tags to posts that are missing some stuff: banners, in-depth explanations and so on. Feel free to tag us when you post/reblog something that we don’t have or could use to improve existing content.
