Ummm Byee

That’s still a lot of trees #EthicalMemes

today is the first international asexuality day! on this day, we celebrate those that are under the ace umbrella, including demisexual, gray-asexual, and all kinds of other ace identities.

asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction to others, or low or absent interest in or desire for sexual activity.

asexuality is valid. asexuality exists.

if you are an allosexual person, check in with your friends that are in the ace spectrum today! let them know you are with them every step of the way. and educate those who do not know what asexuality is.

and for us in the spectrum, let's use this day to celebrate our identity! we are in this together, let's not lose the community spirit. we have enough love for everyone.

sending love to my people, happy asexuality day!

If you have epilepsy/photosensitivity, you may want to avoid the Quick Reblog thing on mobile for the time being. For some reason the green confirmation bar at the bottom of the screen is now flashing rapidly (basically strobing) whenever I Quick Reblog a post, and Tumblr Support hasn't gotten back to me about it besides the standard list of basic troubleshooting.

all queer history on here is just US-American or maybe sometimes some UK history as well and it makes me sad that there’s so little information about other countries’ queer history on here :(

reblog to give roman sanders a hug

Just finished episode 6.

I love that they both had to lay something at the other’s feet for the relationship to work.

That Wilhelm had to lay down what was most important for him - his sense of responsibility, his family, his Crown - willingly at Simon’s feet for Simon to realize Wille’s struggles and realize he didn’t want him to do all that. That precisely because Wille is ready to do it all, Simon need him to.

That Simon had to lay down what was most important for him - his integrity, his dignity, his freedom - willingly at Wille’s feet for Wille to realize Simon’s struggles and realize he didn’t want him to do all that. That precisely because Simon is ready to do it all, Wille doesn’t need him to.

They both had to be willing to sacrifice something for there to be no sacrifice needed at all, for them to see their love and find their power, for each of them not to lose any part of themselves in this relationship. No compromise.
