Plaza Post: "I Woke Up Today, And It Was At 999,999,999"

Went to my first Green Day concert

They played my favorite songs (St. Jimmy and One Eyed Bastard)! I got merch! A drunk guy fell on me! Billie was super funny! They had the inflatable plane from Dookie!

12/10 experience, would definitely go again!

If you don't want a QPR, then that's okay. I see you, too.

You might be aqueerplatonic, aka aquaplatonic. I think a lot of aspec discussion is on QPRs, which is fine. But I also think we need to acknowledge it can create a certain pressure. I saw so many posts about QPRs that I felt like I was supposed to have one. People talk about them like its something everyone who's aspec experiences.

But not every aspec will experience it! And that should be seen as okay! When I learned aquaplatonic was a label, it made me feel better about myself. You don't need to have a special someone, regardless of romance or not. If you just have friends, that's okay. If you don't even want friends, that's okay. Don't force yourself into a type of relationship you don't want to have!

(This is not an attack on QPRs or the community in general. This is something I just feel like needs to be said and isn't talked about much.)

I have a doll from Budsies. They make some genuinely good stuff. I'm so happy to see them doing this

The company budsies, which specializes in making custom stuffed animals and making duplicates of old or lost plushies, is currently offering to recreate the beloved stuffed animal of any kid who lost theirs in the LA wildfire, free of charge.

Their instagram post said to share this, so please spread this around so that families who've lost everything can receive just a little bit more hope in their lives 🥺

Drawing class introduced me to charcoal, and I've started experimenting with it in my regular style

The bots are too much

I'm nonbinary and asexual. I like seeing trans posts. But holy shit I think I'm gonna have to block the trans tag. There are so many of those gross s*x bots flooding my feed that I can't stand it.

This is not the "queer" website when I'm being shown trans f*tish content.

Another painting I did. I'm really enjoying it!

To my uk trans people and allies out there.

okay, i've gotten sick of this shit. please reblog and like and share and stuff so tumblr can know this is a problem.

i keep getting communities suggested to me on tumblr. this wouldnt be a problem... if it wasnt communities i do not care about at all. there are some fandoms i want to genuinely avoid, seeing as i have no interest in the content and honestly am potentially triggered by it.

speaking of the getting triggered part. it gets worse and genuinely very important.

there are certain nsfw communities that get randomly reccomended to me, and some of these topics can be genuinely triggering, such as r@pe f3tishes (yes, i genuinely got a post from an nsfw community featuring that recommended to me) and other VERY potentially triggering things.

though i think it's important for people to have safe spaces for that kind of stuff (such as the nsfw one, like it is not my place to kinkshame, but to people who have not shown interest in it it can be harmful), there should be ways to avoid these

my solution? the ability to block communities. not just say "not interested" (because we all know that hardly ever works)

if anyone knows any other solutions, please let me know. this is starting to genuinely bother me and make tumblr not very fun to use, which sucks.
