Bad Typist. Duh.

Re: the person above me, who has a great point and I just want to back it up

When I was in my early twenties, my mom expressed surprise I wasn’t in, or trying to find, a relationship. I said:

“I’ve just got more important stuff to deal with right now.”

She said:

“Don’t you ever just…WANT? To have sex?”

I said:

“……I don’t really think about it?”

She said:

“I need to get you to a doctor for a brain scan. That isn’t normal.”

AND SHE WAS SERIOUS.

Please note, I’m not ace. (Or, well, I don’t think so. The jury’s kind of out, but if I have shifted over the years, I wasn’t ALWAYS ace.) This was literally a response, from a medical professional, to “maybe later but not right now, I’ve got to get some shit in order first.”

And now that you know THAT I want you to go imagine explaining asexuality to great-aunt Karen.

You're so welcome!

When the resident at the NYH emergency room spelled it out for me, I was caught between two immediate reactions: (a) suspicion, because it sounded too easy, and (b) that feeling of inevitability that sometimes accompanies explanations that make immediate perfect sense. There was, of course, nothing to do but test it. So I did, again and again and again... and it just kept working.

Anyway, here's the link again for those who don't feel like cut 'n' pasting.

REDEEMED HIMSELF U EVIL POLLSTERS

- guy at work "Yes, and -" ing the bit me and my coworker were doing where we pretended to be owners of a fantasy medieval tavern not minimum wage retail staff

- at the gay club when Die Young by Kesha came on and two hundred people, all dancing and drinking separately, jumped up and down to make the "- beat of the drums *STOMP STOMP*" as loud as possible

- person who watched me stomp round the beach singing a made up song about breakfast foods to name a cat after and suggested more breakfast foods that would be good cat names

- guy who started a dance off with everyone across the road while waiting for the lights to change

[Fri 19 May 2023] [death, terminal illness]

Hey, it’s mod nat again. My last living grandparent is terminally ill and I’d like to visit her for her birthday, and have her meet my partner of more than 8 years for the first time. My grandma has idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, which she’s had diagnosed for about 3 years. (Life expectancy with PF is 3-5 years on average.) I only was able to for the first time in roughly 10 years last fall due to my being no contact with my parents (+ rest of family by extension) from 2014-2021.

We need to fundraise for transportation to the greater Tkaronto/Toronto area from so-called “Ottawa” where I live. Both my partner and I are disabled and on social assistance, so can’t otherwise afford transportation.

Me at 3 ½, playing with plasticene with my grandfather. I wouldn’t have had access to this photo, or any from my childhood, if you folks hadn’t helped me fundraise to get to my grandpa’s funeral back in 2021. It means a lot and I thank you.

Breakdown of funds needed:

~$80 CAD for transport there (we’re getting a ride part of the way there through my sibling)

~$100 CAD for transport the way back

$??? CAD for lodging (I don’t know the amount but want to reimburse the person covering it for me)

$?? CAD for food/other necessities

Helping would mean me getting to talk to a grandparent as my real self, when I wasn’t able to before, despite coming out as trans a dozen years ago.

If you want to help but can’t provide funds:

please consider registering to be an organ donor so that when you’re gone one day, other people can live. here’s the ontario link.

if you’re local to the GTA and can provide a place to sleep (especially an accessible one) in the future please reply (don’t DM, this is not my personal account)

if you’ve benefitted from the work I’ve done here, vouching for my character and realness in the reblogs makes a real difference in this kind of thing.

looks like I triggered more sjws. Keep sending these asks they only fuel my logic. 

However, those places of Texas that are close to Arkansas, do not include “close to Fort Smith, Arkansas.”

The closest Texas gets to Fort Smith is about 185 miles (about 300km), at “a little closer than Texarkana.” (Dallas, fwiw, is about 275 miles/450km from Fort Smith.)
