Wade Watts, from the book Ready Player One by Ernest Cline and also the movie based on the book, is a super nerd. And to prove it I'll make the bold claim that his knowledge on James Halliday is almost or maybe even equal to MatPat's knowledge of FNAF. Just throwing it out there.

I have so many thoughts and they all go to Tumblr
17th Century: The Golden Orchid Society in South China creates self-combing women- women who would wear their hair they way married women would to say they were not available. The women did not want to have sexual/romantic partners.
1970s: Dorothy Tennov wrote about non-limerent people in her book, Love and Limerence: The Experience of Being in Love. Limerence is a (now) outdated term for feeling romantic attraction. She and other theorists recognized that romantic and sexual love may not be linked.
non-limerent was an early terms for aromantic people.
2005: the term aromantic was coined by the asexual visibility and education network.
2008/9: the term aromantic became more widespread.
The origional flag:
Green, because it is the opposite of red, the most commonly associated romance color.
Yellow, representing platonic love, because yellow roses represent friendship.
Orange, for grayromantics, because it is in between red and yellow.
And black, representing alloromantics that "reject traditional ideas of romance".
This flag was later changed because it closely resembled the Rastafarian flag, and because it had a stripe representing alloromantics
the flag went through a few more stages before settling on the one we use today.

When I say that I don't want to exist right now, that doesn't mean i want to die. Not to me it doesn't. All it means is I want to disconnect from myself. To not feel my own emotions, to not hear my brain rile on and on, to not feel my skin on my body, to not feel, to not hear, to not taste, to not smell, to not see but still observe. I don't want to be interacted with like a person when I wish to not exist. I wish to a narrator, a viewer, a camera-man. I wish that I could fast forward to when this was a memory. I know it may seem concerning, or maybe a bit outlandish, but it makes sense to me. I want to not be there but still be there. I want to not be acknowledged by anyone and to simply watch. Watch others experience what's happening. And I want to not experience it. I don't want it. I just want to sit in the corner and watch. But when someone's in the corner watching, someone has to whisper. Has to ask questions. Has to make me exist. I don't want that. I don't want to exist, but I don't want to die either. It does make sense to me, but not everyone is me. I don't mind that either. But I want to be able to say that I am not existing and for people to understand. For them to not be concerned about the kid in the corner. About the guy sitting in silence. About your suspiciously quiet friend. I am simply not for now, and I hope you can accept that.
wow birds sure do have names! Here's some of society's favorites:
Cardinal
Blue jay
Hawk
Sparrow
Eagle
In comparison here are some of my favourite bird names:
Dickcissel
Tufted Titmouse
Wall creeper
Pyrrhuloxia
Emu
That last one is mostly a dedication to my friend @i-may-be-an-emu but emu is still a neat and silly name anyway so it works.
