Yes. I'm Horrible With This.

Things like this make me think sexual attraction is a joke.

Every time a post on queerplatonic relationships makes its way around tumblr, the comments are inevitably filled with a flood of “IT’S CALLED FRIENDSHIP” or “WHY DO YOU NEED A WORD FOR THIS.”

Do you honestly think society regards friendship as an acceptable substitute for romance and marriage?  The thing is, most aros would LOVE if it could just be called friendship.

Because that would mean a world where:

Friendships are considered equal to or sometimes *SHOCK HORROR* more important than romantic relationships.  This is not an exceptional occurrence.

Romantic partners know that they might not be their datemate’s Most Important Person and are not bothered by this.

People commonly plan major life events around their friends up to and including housing, finances, employment, ect.

It is common for people to be in their 30s, 40s, 50s, hell even old age having lived with friends that entire time and no one has ever asked them why they’re not married.

It is common for people to have a committed lifelong partnership with their friend and no one bats an eye.

Having a life friend is considered something that can be regarded as equally close to marriage.  It is also taken just as seriously.

Until the day that those are true, friendship is unfortunately not an accurate word to convey the types of relationships we’re talking about.

I can't stop watching this omg 🥺💞💞💞

For whenever I'm having a tough day at work

I told them you were here.

I bought a silicone ring from Knot Theory on Amazon. I abuse the hell out of my hands and I ruined six different rings until I found Knot Theory. They even come in different colors.

new ace and aro rings!! honestly i just want a whole bunch of different pairs to wear every day and alternate and stuff

made by wrapping old, tarnished, too big rings with embroidery floss. it does make them a bit smaller tho. these originally fit onto my thumb (i dont have very thick thumbs tho) and now theyre pretty much perfect on my middle fingers, plus the traction of the thread prevents them from falling down, although i have a feeling they might wear the inside of the surrounding fingers raw. oh well, ill see.

It happened again. Girl is bitching about her boyfriend and I respond "wow what a dick move" and she proceeds to yell at me for agreeing with her about her dick boyfriend

Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!

my neighbourhood has never had an ice cream truck. in the summer, we have the knife sharpening truck. it slowly circles the block and rings its ominous bell. i have never seen someone interact with it. it may be that only those marked by death can see it
