Mine was along the lines of she/her - she/they - they/she - they/she/ey - they/ey/she - they/ey
i am a victim of the she/her - she/they - they/she - they/them - they/he - he/they - he/him pipeline
it is certainly quite a pipeline (i never went down it ✊)

I most certainly agree with this
starts punching and tearing at everything in a blind rage. i want AROMANTIC characters i want characters with not an OUNCE of romance about them i don't JUST want aroace characters i want AROMANTIC characters that AREN'T ASEXUAL i want people to headcanon characters as AROMANTIC not just aroace i want fandom to treat AROMANTICISM as AROMANTICISM, and not a SUBCATEGORY OF ASEXUALITY. RRRAAAAAAAAGHHHHHH
[ID: banner reading "don't tag as ace or aroace"]
I relate to this so much, especially the part about caring(?) about your friends, but not necessarily wanting(?) friendship (I’m not sure if I’m wording this right)
Being aplspec makes discussions about friendships in aro spaces so awkward like. Yeah I agree friendship should be given more respect and amatonormativity should be dismantled. Yes I care very deeply for my friend(s). No I can't relate to your experiences with friendship or wanting friends. You've lost me. Why are you talking about friendship as if everyone has and/or wants it. Hey. Whatever happened to allowing people to decide what relationships they want and what those relationships entail for themselves.
It's exhausting because aro spaces are often one of the only spaces that will respect my devotion and care (sometimes I even call it love, depending on how I'm feeling that day) for my friend, but friendship is also just treated like romance is everywhere else and no one even seems to notice. You're not gonna defeat amatonormativity with the power of platonormativity. Have you considered readjusting your understanding of relationship anarchy and questioning your own biases and assumptions about platonic relationships? I'm drowning in "use friendship as a substitute for romance" posts over here
(and it's like. I don't want to criticize people's love for their friends or anything like that. I'm just so tired of all the assumptions of having and wanting friends. They're everywhere in here and make me feel so estranged from my own community)
(this turned into a bit of a vent but it's okay to rb and add on)
The blacked out parts include my ✨legal name✨
As I sit back after finishing these two discussion boards that are due this night I realize
“I could’ve gotten all this done way sooner if I hadn’t put off writing my notes”
But am I going to learn from this error…
Probably not 😔
I’m so proud of myself; I let my history professor know that I’m autistic and have social anxiety and because of that I have some struggles when it comes to speaking. I also told her my pronouns. It went really well; and she asked me if the presentation that is due towards the end of the semester will be a problem (I haven’t gotten to her on that yet) and she said she appreciated my openness.
Note: I told her this information in an introduction paragraph (which is mandatory/graded) that we can use to share with her any thing that we deem of importance (if that makes sense)
Imma use this as an opportunity to talk about one of my favorite creatures from Celtic mythology: the kelpie
(All of this is copied and pasted from my notes app 😇)
Now the kelpie is a shapeshifting water spirit that is usually found near like streams and rivers and I think other bodies of fresh water; it usually takes the form of a horse but is capable of taking on other shapes such as that of an old woman or a man. The thing that gives the kelpie’s identity away is the fact that the kelpie is perpetually wet and cold with waterweeds in its hair or mane. When in horse form the kelpie is known for luring weary travelers to ride it; once they get on its back the kelpie then takes off into the nearest body of water, the rider, who is now stuck to the kelpie, is forced underwater by the kelpie and eventually end up drowning, after the victim is dead the kelpie eats them. If a victim ends up on the back of a kelpie one way they can prevent their death is to grab its bridle, this essentially gives the rider control.
I may or may not add more stuff to this though not specifically kelpie or folklore based, that or I might just do so on my page in general
Please info dump on this post!!
I know a lot of times people autistic/neurodivergent people feel like they have to apologize for their interests and I want to help change that.
I genuinely want to hear about your interests! I want to hear the "fun facts" and the lore of really specific media. Don't shy away from including details, you can write out a whole essay and I'll read every word. Just share about something you like unapologetically!
The feeling when you’re overdue on two writing assignments, and have 3 due way too soon for your liking.
