JUST REALIZED WE’RE ACTUALLY GONNA HAVE A BOOK COVER WITH NICO ON IT WHEN SOLANGELO BOOK COMES OUT.

I think it’s funny how celebrities moving from Twitter to Tumblr gain nothing here.

Like, settle in to be just some guy. No one cares. You are just as much tumblrina as the rest of us now.

Yeah, you might be famous, but you’re not tumblr famous. Yeah, you won an Oscar but you’ll never be as beloved as Blorbo from my shows. We will never freak out about you answering our ask as we will freak out over our ship still not being canon. We care more about hot takes than follower counts here. We are so unmarketable, there is no good PR on our hellsite /aff.

We only wanna see cool shoelaces that’s it.

Okay fuck it if this post reaches 666k notes by the end of 2023 I'll practise basic self care

Why 666k? Because it's funny and impossible so good fucking luck

We need to keep making 9/11 jokes until some corporation tries to jump in on the meme and gets promptly executed by the public

remembering so many people being like “well actually salt lamps don’t have any REAL benefits” as if having a pink glowing rock in the room is not a benefit. it helps me

Percy: Annabeth and I are having a baby.

Nico: That's gre-

Percy, slamming adoption papers on the table: It's you, sign here.

Being compared to a pjo character is like the best compliment anyone could receive. Like if anyone compared me to Annabeth chase I’d have to marry them on the spot.

This is so funny bc Ryan Reynolds just got the app. He's almost certainly gonna be trying to figure out how it works for the next few days. He has no idea he's walking into the weird 2014 half-canon ship Putin election second anniversary. Is he gonna try to figure out what everyone is talking about?? Will he Know????

Whenever I see aro/ace discourses and whether they belong in LGBTQ+ spaces, my initial thought is always the same:

Who are you to decide?

What none tells you about being on aromantic and/or asexual spectrum is how isolating it is. You feel lonely. And it's constant. Lonliness because of identity isn't always overwhelming, but it's present somewhere deep down. You feel lonely not because of lack of sexual/romantic attraction but because of society and amatonormativity.

When I was in elementary school, all my friends had crushes. I never understood that because even if I liked someone, it was always in platonic way. They insisted I couldn't possibly not like anyone and I felt forced to fake a crush. In middle school people started dating each other and I comforted myself with "I'm too young for that, time will come". By the high school I already knew something was "wrong" with me, I wasn't like the others. People began having sex not because they were expected to do that but because they actually wanted to. That was such shock to me, I thought media was exaggerating with passion and attraction but apparently all those things happen irl too. Hence I realized I was "the weird one". I forced myself to have same experiences but it felt more like obligation to me than something I trully wanted. I felt dirty after being touched, it repulsed me. I felt like something is broken within me for not enjoying sex. I could never fall in love. People called me coldhearted, they thought something was wrong with me. Few therapist tried to "fix" me, even set me up on dates. I internalized all of that and began seeing myself as "not normal".

Now that I'm older and know there's nothing wrong with me or being aroace, I still can't shake years and years of "I'm not normal" I experienced. It still haunts me. I hear someone talking about their sexual experiences and part of me still feels "not normal" when seeing how "normal" people live. I feel lonely. Parents insist I must find a partner one day. They don't believe i don't experience romantic attraction towards other people. Outside of aspec communities online, I don't experience any support. When I step outside, I still feel like something is wrong with me. Intentionally or not, society still makes me feel like an outsider. It's because of amatonormativity that roots too deep.

There's nothing wrong with people being romantic or sexual, far from that - but vast majority of cishet folks out there expect me to act same as them. Mere thought of someone looking at me as sexual being makes me cringe. I never felt romantic attraction towards anyone. I don't want to be in a relationship - I'm different from the "rest". It's lonely. Felling of isolation became association to me as part of identity. I don't even form closer platonic bonds because inevitable question of my romantic/sex life would inevitably come. For the longest time I felt like I needed to censor that part of myself. I assimilate with surroundings and hope noone finds out my "little secret".

If we as society educated kids more about LGBTQ+ stuff, then maybe this chronic feeling of isolation in aspec communities would diminish in few generations. However what I can say is that from very early age I experienced romantic/sexual attraction very different from what is considered "standard" - and that is why I relate to LGBT experiences innumerous times more than I will to "standard' heterosexual heteroromantic ones.

So stranger on the internet, who are you to swept all my complicated feelings and experiences regarding sexuality under rug because they can't fit in your narrow definition of how romantic and sexual attraction should be.
