(an ace safe space)
Quick post to let you know there is NOTHING wrong with drawing yourself. It isn’t narsacistic and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
It took me YEARS to feel confident in the way I am and enjoy the way I look. So hell yes I am going to draw myself whenever the hell I feel like it and you should to. Self inserts, in clothes you wish you had, interacting with your fav characters, DO IT ALL!
It’s fun and in the end that is what drawing is all about <3
things people do in real world dialogue:
• laugh at their own jokes
• don’t finish/say complete sentences
• interrupt a line of thought with a sudden new one
• say ‘uh’ between words when unsure
• accidentally blend multiple words together, and may start the sentence over again
• repeat filler words such as ‘like’ ‘literally’ ‘really’ ‘anyways’ and ‘i think’
• begin and/or end sentences with phrases such as ‘eh’ and ‘you know’, and may make those phrases into question form to get another’s input
• repeat words/phrases when in an excited state
• words fizzle out upon realizing no one is listening
• repeat themselves when others don’t understand what they’re saying, as well as to get their point across
• reply nonverbally such as hand gestures, facial expressions, random noises, movement, and even silence

Every url that reblog’s will be written in a book and shown to my homophobic dad.
An LGBTQA+ dating app. Not like Grinder or anything like that but a legit dating app. One that lets you put your sexual, romantic, and gender identifications on your profile and let’s you search by your interests of those three categories. Say you are an asexual, panromantic, genderfluid individual searching for an asexual, open to any gender person. And you can just click on the orientation boxes for results and combination.
Additional concept, all of the orientations are listed Pokemon type style.
But just like an open place that gives you all of these searchable/ matchable options so that everyone has the opportunity to match with someone who is open and accepting of them and their orientations.
Idk if this has already been done and I just dont know about it yet, but it just sounded like a nice way to get to meet someone who I knew wouldn’t balk at me not being “typical”. Anyway just a concept….so yeah
Edit:
Safety features
When you get a date with someone you can put the address of the place and time of the date into the app and you can add/connect the profile of who you are going to meet up with . That way if something goes wrong the app has your last known address and who you were with. Bonus you can post a selfie to the safety feature so there is an accurate photo of you from the day of the date (better then just a friend giving a description of what they think they remember you were wearing).
Another feature - PALS. -Please. Always. Leave. Safely.-
It gives you the ability to send out different levels of S.O.S. that gets sent to nearby app users (maybe within 2 miles?) in the event the date is going wrong. Send out a “Help a Pal Out” (level 2 weirdo) when the date is going poorly and you need to “run into an old friend” as an excuse to leave. Or a “Psyc-oh” (level 5 weirdo) When you NEED to leave the date but don’t feel safe leaving alone and would like someone to come offer a distraction or helping hand so you can slip away. And the emergency level “The PALS Signal” (alerts nearby users that you need emergency help and also contacts the local police). You can add comments to the alert so that your PALS responders aren’t walking into a situation blind. When these alerts are sent out they purposely do not get sent to your date and you can add other people for it not to get sent to in the event that you are on a group date with your dates (possibly equally freaky) friends.
You can also turn on a location feature so that the app can have your location for the duration of the date (click on “Date Complete” to turn off the locator), but only the app company and authority have the right to view that information (never other users).
EVERYBODY SHOULD READ THIS!!!!!!!!! REBLOG…IT CAN SAVE A LIFE OR TWO!!! WARNING: Some knew about the red light on cars, but not Dialing 112. An UNMARKED police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. Lauren’s parents have always told her to never pull over for an unmarked car on the side of the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called, 112 on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind her. The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was and there weren’t, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he had back up already on the way. Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind her. One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car behind. They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man was a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. I never knew about the 112 Cell Phone feature. I tried it on my AT&T phone & it said, “Dialing Emergency Number.” Especially for a woman alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. Apparently police have to respect your right to keep going on to a safe place. *Speaking to a service representative at Bell Mobility confirmed that 112 was a direct link to State trooper info. So, now it’s your turn to let your friends know about “Dialing, 112” You may want to send this to every Man, Woman & Youngster you know; it may well save a life. This applies to ALL 50 states PLEASE PASS ALONG TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY, IT CAN SAVE A LIFE….
