My HK OC put into XIV cause I can and I love her. Prima Rosaline, bug goddess queen.
Also a funny prank Lexi pulled on her husband. Massive thanks to @halcyonlioness for helping out with this set of pics.
Be nice and don't mock tumblr users that communicate differently.
Examples:
1.) Typing quirks
2.) No punctuation
3.) Random Capitalisation
4.) Long run on sentences
5.) Frequently misspelled words
6.) Missing spaces between words
7.) Repeating words and sentences
8.) Posts audios and videos instead of typing
9.) Express themselves through custom emojis
10.) Use an AAC (Augmentative and alternative communication) device
Some users have intellectual disabilities, use speech to text, struggle with grammar, have hand tremmers, have high support needs, etc.
Regardless of how they communicate and their reason why, they still deserve respect. They are trying their best.
So when I went through DT, I decided to have Aymeric come along with Lexi for this. So here are some of my Lexi/Aymeric Turali vacay pics I took for that. These were some of the first times I seriously had to pose a couple with this massive of a size difference and I am very happy with how they turned out.
When demisexuals and demiromantics say people criticise them for being "picky", I find it so bizarre. Like,
"Finish your whole boyfriend or you won't get any dessert"
"If you don't go out with her you'll get her cold for breakfast"
"I'm not going to make a separate spouse for everyone in this house, you'll marry what you're given".
"Think of the starving incels!"
I mean... a relationship is not a poorly-cooked family dinner that you have to choke down or you'll offend grandma. You're supposed to be picky.
The unaccounted partner of Alexia, Nanaki Ananaki. He was originally supposed to be a Red XIII expy cosplay alt, but grew into his own thing… and now is one of Lexi's many significant others. Credit to @halcyonlioness for him and these pics.
I wish I had the entertaining ADHD that people think people with ADHD have and not the catastrophically fucking bad with deadlines ADHD that makes me scream internally while doing nothing
My characters' various pets. Alexia's floaty baby Baobei. Amelie with her phasing puppy Oursin. Lala! Prima with her normal cat Bumble. Sumi with her chill turtle Takara
This, just this.
"Amatonormativity permeates more than TV shows and books. It is woven into our legal rights, creating forms of discrimination that become more and more apparent as people age. Romantic love within marriage confers privileges that other forms of devotion cannot, including over 1,100 laws that benefit married couples at the federal level. Spouses can share each other’s health insurance, as well as military, social security, and disability benefits. They can make medical decisions for each other. Companies grant bereavement leave for spouses, no questions asked, but there will be more hesitation if leave is requested for a mere friend. It is possible to marry a stranger and give them your health insurance but not possible to give health insurance to a parent...
Criteria based on sex made sense when the main purpose of marriage was to merge fortunes and produce children, but today...marriage is more about a match of devotion than a match of trade. In many cases, the point is no longer to create an heir and a spare. Plenty of married couples don’t have children (or sex, for that matter), and bad marriages with little caring are common...
Offering legal and social benefits only to the romantically attached suggests that the mere presence of romantic feeling elevates the care and deserves special protections, even though friendship and other forms of care, which can come with less obligation, can include more love, more freely given. Therefore, the legal and social privileges of marriage should be extended to all mutually consenting adults who wish for them...
'In terms of policy, marriage law really reaches into all areas of law, like tax and immigration and property,' ... 'It doesn’t matter if it’s different-sex only or same-sex marriage, so long as we restrict marriage to romantic and sexual partners we will ensure amatonormativity.' Reforming marriage law by abolishing it altogether or extending marriage-like rights to friends (to small groups or networks) is one way to eradicate discrimination."
