Orangesandlemons3 - Orange The Ace

So, I’m asexual and my friend just sent me this. It’s great.

You’ve heard of ‘single and ready to mingle’ now get ready for

Ace and in desperate need of space

Okay, so I asked my community of Aces for meme representations of what it was like to realize that you’re Ace. Imma post a bunch of the responses.

Some of you need to realize that a woman doing something kind for a male partner is not always a sign of her own oppression wtf

Divergent is a bad book, but its accidental brilliance is that it completely mauled the YA dystopian genre by stripping it down to its barest bones for maximum marketability, utterly destroying the chances of YA dystopian literature’s long-term survival

I’m not just happy about being ace…

I’m ace-staic about it.

One of the most life-changing things I ever learned came from Mythbusters, where they tested and proved (with cognitive testing puzzles and reaction time tests) that lying down and resting with the intention to sleep STILL provided significant mental benefits over just staying awake, even if a person couldn’t fall asleep in the amount of time they had. 

It helps me to actually sleep to know that just lying down with my eyes closed is still doing me some good, and helps me to not freak out/beat myself up when I stay up later than intended. Any amount of rest is better than no rest!

So if you didn’t know that…now you do
