Cuddling Doesn't Have To Be Romantic

good GOD I am so angry.

I, as my bio suggests, am a minor. I am also asexual. And feeling quite dysphoric about all the adults in my life telling me ‘I wouldn’t know until I’ve tried it.’ But that’s a different topic.

I needed a little boost for myself so I looked at the asexual tag here on tumblr, so I’d feel less alone.

There are always thirst traps and other things of that kind on any popular tag. But I saw so many, on the asexual tag, that I actually cried, ripping my skin off as I did so.

There will always be people that abuse the tag system, I know. Tagging your posts with trending tags to make them more likely to show up on people’s dashes is a corporate tactic. But to see so many of these ads, I can barely call them posts, on the asexual tag, made me physically ill.

Asexuality is often overlooked by not just cishets but the LGBTQ+ community so often. To see that a safe space for positivity for such a overlooked community was being vandalised for the sake of marketing makes me so angry and so upset for myself and all the other people who fit under the umbrella of asexuality or aromantic who just want to feel like they belong.

I’m a relatively new blog, but I know how tumblr works. I know how the world works. The way the world is run means that we are all victims, and I thought that maybe society, that damned, twisted thing, could let us have a little corner to protect ourselves.

All it does is hurt. it hurts, and it hurts, and it hurts. Companies aren’t going to get new customers by ripping apart supposed safe spaces, and young asexual kids like myself aren’t going to get any validation or even feeling of home from seeing thirst traps targeted toward our community.

our community that is SPECIFICALLY DEFINED BY FEELING DIFFERENT OR NO SEXUAL ATTRACTION TO WHAT IS DEEMED ‘NORMAL’.

it’s targeted. I can tell. And I am by no means an expert, but this tag abuse is hurting everyone. And no one is doing a thing about it.

please boost this. Reblog, like, whatever. This is damaging people far more than you think, and it needs to be resolved.

thanks for hearing me

I'm not fully educated on Trump's policies, but I know their bad enough to want to end it all and was very close to as soon as I heard the news.

But we can't. We can't let him win like this. To everyone affected by this stale cheeto's win, stay alive. Do it out of spite if you need to. Just keep going. These might be 4 years of hell, but we need to keep going. Listen to me, it'll all be ok in the end, I promise you that. All my queer friends, the fellow people who aren't the best mentally, and everyone who will be affected by this, please for the love of everything, Keep. Going.

I'll be here if anyone needs to talk, I love you all.

It'll all get better friends.

“No”

It's true, bonus points if we're anxious

wow players having to stand in lines for a quest because a relevant npc can only talk to one player at a time. is the funniest image on the planet

Bro i dont know if this is normal or not but like does anyone else just absolutely hate physical touch but crave it sm at the same time??

Its only from my qpps tho, like if i made a tierlist or smth it would be like:

- I can tolerate it but i hate it so much (most people are here, including many of my family members)

- I can tolerate it but im indifferent (some of my family)

- I can tolerate it and act ok tho i dont entirely like it (the remaining family members and closer friends)

And this is how it usually was until like 2 months ago when the 3 of us figured out we were actually in a qpr

So it has added a new level:

- I love it so much please just hold me or smth its so nice (only those 2)

And i dont understand bc whenever i explain it i sound touch starved tho i dont think that i am i just really like them making non sexual contact with me like cuddling or holding hands or whatever (especially cuddling i love it so much)

I come bearing bidoofs.

I have finished the rest of the main 12 participants

Ill start on the dummies + (possibly) megumi in like an hr or smth

So i was scrolling through my gallery and i just remembered this one project i had and never finished

It was made purely to annoy one of my friends and i was supposed to do more for it but i lost motivation, it was supposed to be all the characters and it was going to be like a trailer with some cgs done too (i was bored on some random tuesday over the summer)

Anyways i give you, your turn to bidoof (last image is a slight spoiler for the end of chapter 1-2 ig):

I had a vision.

If anyone wants ill actually finish this

A newly opened bar has a sign outside, beer for only $3 

A man sees the sign, walks into the bar and orders a beer.

After finishing the beer, the man takes out three $1 coins from his pocket, and feeling a bit mischievous, gets up from his seat, walks to one end of the counter and places a $1 coin there. He then walks over to the other end of the counter and places another $1 coin there. Finally, he walks back to his seat and places the third $1 coin right in the middle of the counter. The bartender gives him an odd look but has no other option but to walk the entire length of the bar counter to pick up the coins.

This went on repeatedly over the next few days and each day the bartender felt more and more annoyed at the man’s behaviour.

One day, the man returns again to order a beer but realises he doesn’t have enough $1 coins to place them all over the counter. So, he hands the bartender a $5 note. At this point, the bartender gets all excited and thinks that it is finally his day to get his revenge on the man. The bartender quickly takes out two $1 coins and places them at opposite ends of the counter.

With a grin on his face, the bartender goes back to the man and says, “Go on then, collect your change”.

The man then takes out a single $1 coin from his pocket, slides it over to the middle of the counter, and says, “One more beer, please.”
