this long weekend, I'll be attempting to use the book club I'm hosting this week and the potential of a date coming to my apartment in the near future to motivate not just tidying up all the accumulated mess but dealing with some of the stuff that's just sort of been There since I moved in. wish me luck!

the end of day 1 update is that I didn't check a ton off of my to-do list, but my kitchen has not been so clean since I moved in. also I made mint tea! I'm optimistic about tackling the living room & bathroom over the next two days

#my plan is to get my friend who loves getting rid of stuff to come help me go through the remaining half a box in my bedroom #I can close the bedroom door for book club #but I live in hope that someday a cute human will want to see where I sleep so #it needs to happen eventually

my favorite thing about louis is he's a business major in a world of theater kids. everyone's playing psychological games with each other through theater and rock music and the fractured art of storytelling and he's like "but what are the margins on my vampire hotel"

im so sick of unnecessary dinner scenes in movies 😡 every fucking movie they just want to titillate you with some food because they think you’re a dumb animal who just wants to see mashed potatoes bouncing. if its an IMPORTANT dinner scene where they explain lore then whatever i understand. but they shove useless meals into every movie these days and its disgusting

really? you don’t say

I just ate a whole avocado as a snack, who even am I anymore

#I used to really dislike avocados #I will eat them in things like sushi now but I don't buy them for myself #these I bought to use to make something for a friend and then ended up omitting them #and I got home from the baseball game and was like. y'know what sounds good?#fucking. avocado. with salt on it.#I guess I need to start buying myself avocados now!

i think we should start taking beloved archetypes for male characters and using them to make female characters. this woman is an asshole with a heart of gold. this woman is a loveable goofball. this woman is a cool but scarred lone wolf who just wants to protect people. this woman is a badass con artist who is always seen wearing an immaculate suit. this woman is a dilf

sorry for always complaining about women being ignored in fandoms. but it wil keep happening.

its easy to be cynical about the future but on the bright side at least more people keep giant skeleton statues in their yards now moreso than ever before

#there's one or two giant skeletons in my neighborhood #but there are probably a few dozen regular sized (fake) skeletons #the kind you would put out for halloween #that just stay out all year round #chilling on people's porches #i'm not sure why or how it became a thing but I love it

so disappointing to pick up a book set in my city written by someone who lives in the city only to find it deeply, deeply unrelatable

#it's set almost exclusively in a few neighborhoods that I rarely go to #this isn't fucking new york. I promise people are having to leave a 10-block radius for some if not many things in their daily lives.#also how are you going to write a book set in BALTIMORE and not have even one black person in it??#I'm gonna need to read the john waters memoir as a pallet cleanser after this I s2g

I think if you want to understand bigotry against aromantics, I have a good case study. Let me talk a little about my dad's family.

My dad has 4 half siblings and two step siblings. They're all a decent bit younger than him. When I was a teenager, we went to a family reunion, and I realized something—my dad did not respect his siblings. He looked down on all of them. He saw them as fuck-ups and overgrown children. My dad had the American dream: well paying management job, suburban house, wife, and three kids. My aunt and uncles did not. Excluding my aunt, none of them were married or in serious relationships. They hadn't really settled into long term careers. Several of them were working the kind of jobs that get called "Unskilled labor." So he looked down on them because the youngest one was in his thirties (and several were much older), and yet none of them had "settled down" into what he saw as lifelong, permanent careers and relationships and lives. He was polite to their faces, sure, but I heard how he talked about them behind their backs, to my mother.

And then a few years ago, we visited his brothers again for Thanksgiving. And I realized something again--he respected them now. He saw them as equals. Why? Well. All of a sudden, every single one of them had serious, committed romantic partners. They didn't even need to still be with those partners—one of my uncle's fiance passed away from cancer before they could marry—just having had one showed that they matured into a real adult participating in society. In fact, at one point, my aunt was telling my mom about how one of my uncles was no longer living in an apartment she owned, but instead, after having a steady girlfriend for about a year, he moved in with her. And my mom literally said to my aunt, "wow. Look at that. He finally grew up."

One of the lines that frequently gets repeated about anti-aspec sentiment is "why would anyone hate asexuals/aromantics/etc? They aren't even doing anything." And that's exactly it. In the eyes of amatonormative culture, we aren't doing anything. Adults are supposed to do things. That's how you become a member of society.

I know that my father will never see me as a successful adult. He will never approve of my life. And I think most people would assume that that's because I'm trans. And don't get me wrong, he sure as shit doesn't like or respect that, but I do think if given enough time, he would get used to it. He would eventually realize that it isn't going away. And if I settled down with a spouse and a respectful job and a few kids, he could see me as a successful adult that he could be proud of anyway. But of course, that's not going to happen. Because I'm aromantic. So I'm never going to do that one thing that signifies that his job is complete, and I'm officially a full-fledged adult. I will perpetually be that fuck-up kid who won't settle down. In my personal case, that's okay. My dad is a conservative piece of shit, and if he doesn't approve of you, that just means you're doing something right. But on a societal level? This kind of attitude is a massive problem. Aromantics deserve to be treated like adults, and to feel like the accomplished adults that they are. We should feel like we belong in society.

#as someone who is demisexual and has been single for over a decade I relate to this a lot!#I would not mind being in a romantic relationship at some point #but having been single for basically all of my 20s now into my 30s #I definitely feel like people see you as less of an adult if you haven't achieved Having A Partner #not to mention that being single makes financially achieving other Markers Of Adulthood more difficult too #one of my coworkers is basically the same age as me but is married with kids #we're both among the youngest people who work at the school #but people say things to me about my age that they would never say to her #nothing *mean* just pointing out that I wasn't alive for that or “oh my gosh you're young”#and I've never heard anyone make that kind of comment to her and I mentioned this to my mom #and she said “well it's hard to do that to someone who is a parent”#which I understand but objectively. we are the same age. she has had different experiences than me sure.#but her having given birth doesn't retroactively mean that she watched those 80s tv shows live!#ugh
