... That's fair.
Hello Chosen Star! I hope you don't mind me asking, why do you hate the Gods so much? You don't have to answer if you don't want to. I'm simply curious.
Like/reblog if you think that you don't need to medically transition to be transgender
Im not a huge fan of aspec shipping discourse but i have some strong opinions rn. So, ive come up with a hypothetical. Imagine this:
Pretend that we’re back when there was NO LGBTQ representation in media. As in, you could think of literally example of a queer character if asked. (I know LGBTQ rep is still scarce, but not as scarce as it used to be, so just pretend it is that super rare).
Lets say that there is a canonically sapphic character in a show you like, let’s say she’s a girl. You get so excited because there’s literally NO rep in any other shows you can find. Excited, you go on the internet to look for stuff about her. However, when you get onto your social media of choice, all you see is fan content shipping her with a male character.
On the surface, this is completely fine. After all, the show doesn’t exactly specify her identity, she could be bi, pan, etc. Sapphic women can like men. But, you find it odd how the only ship art is with her and a man. She had chemistry with tons of female characters, after all. Why not ship her with them? It seems telling that most people ignore her queerness and just say “sapphic women can still date men” to excuse it, despite that being true.
When you post about how frustrating it is, people start getting mad, saying that you’re gatekeeping queerness. People ignore your points and just say “but queer people can be in straight relationships” even though you know that’s true. People say that “its just fan content, let them have fun.” Most people doing the shipping aren’t even sapphic themselves.
To you, it feels like the only piece of canon representation you have is being ignored completely. You know queer people can have straight relationships, you have no issue with that. It’s the fact that people are basically treating her like a straight character and ignoring her queerness that bothers you.
This is how it feels to see people shipping aro character. I know aro people can date. I’m aro and I hope to be in a relationship someday. Some of my closest friends are aspec and are dating other aspecs. But that’s not the point.
The point is that when aspec characters become canon, which is UNBELIEVABLY RARE, so many people choose to ship them anyways. Not only this, but people’s just treat them as if they were allo, just using “aspecs can date” as a cover for completely ignoring the character’s identity. Aspec relationships have nuance. They sometimes don’t look like a “normal” allo relationship.
You can ship aspec characters respectfully. You can:
Put them in a queerplatonic relationship
Put them in a romantic relationship that doesnt involve sex (if they’re allo-ace)
Put them in a sexual relationship that doesnt involve romance (if theyre aro-allo)
Put them in a relationship that’s sexual and romantic, but acknowledge that the relationship might be different than a one between allo people
Handle the ships with nuance and understand that even in a relationship, the character still isnt allo
And most importantly, listen to aspec people when they tell you something you’re doing is inaccurate or harmful.
Sorry for the rant but just… please listen to aspec people!!! We deserve good representation too
Oh gosh- Blue please don't cry- Do you want a hug?
Does Blue have chronic leg pain in this? Like, from jumping in lava to save the baby piglin. If so, Green needs his phone taken away. And I'm not letting him outside of timeout >:(
I mean, he needs the phone taken away anyways, but the trauma for Blue in the prank video :(
Naaah he doesn't have any pain, but him remembering these moments really hurt him :(
And yeah I'll make sure Green doesn't touch his phone for a while >:(
"So how'd you handle the situation?"
I just left and ignored it and avoid any ways to get involved with facing my fears and handling everything.
"Good job :D"
Hi if you ever find yourself in a relationship saying anything along the lines of "well I can't leave cause I would never be able to find something better than this because I'm trans/fat/aging/antisocial/unlucky" I beg of you to run. Please. You can find and build better but in order to do that you have to take the first step out the door. You do not have to endure abuse, mistreatment, or just plain incompatibility for the sake of a fraction of happiness. You don't.
Pour one out for a real one.
Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in 10 seconds later? Turning the tiny little box nearby off and on in 10 seconds? Just some suggestions ^^
... Please be careful, Fiddleford.
Fiddleford, I know this may be hard to hear, but you shouldn't forget your traumatic memories. It won't help you heal. You can destroy your relationships, forget who you even are, dissociate, and have unexplainable emotional reactions. I know it hurts, having these memories, but healing requires remembering. What happens when you can't even remember your family, or your own identity?
The memory gun is targeted, no unwanted side effects. I'll simply not make myself forget my family, simple as that!
I am fine. Everything is fine.
Just a simple place. Ask anything you want. No NSFW, please. And let's make this a safe space. For everyone. (Images taken from Google)
