Last night i had a dream Lady Gaga and Beyonce both simultaneously tweeted out a telephone emoji and every single gay in America immediately began rioting in the streets
I’ve been trying to send ace positivity as much as possible but there is one thing I still have to share.
Yesterday I said something along the lines of, “as a fellow LGBT+ person-” and 2 things happened. 1. I felt a bit of worry. 2. I felt I was wrong.
Even as I am well aware I am ace and that is ok, there’s this engraved part of me that tells me I do not belong. I try to be positive and some days, I am! I don’t question it and accept it fully, no doubts at all. Other days, I feel like it is wrong to say those things because I know someone out there will agree, no matter how wrong the thought is.
So this is a reminder. We are not ‘faking’ anything. What we feel is very much real. We are not ‘late bloomers’. We are not ‘one time away from changing our minds’. We are not ‘broken’ or ‘wrong’. We are not a new concept, we have existed though history and always will.
Asexuality is real and that’s ok. ❤️
Also a reminder to not be upset at yourself next time you start doubting, because doubt is completely normal and healthy. It’s okay to have off days where you’re not entirely sure of your identity. Everyone has those days. They do not make your identity any less valid, okay? ❤️❤️
It’s sad that toxic game culture is so prevalent cuz like. As someone who has ended up in random matches with kids before, I can attest to how fucking easy it is to reverse and un-teach shitty attitudes in kids.
Example: I downloaded Friday the 13th because it’s free on psn. I dunno how to play, so I just enter quick play and I’m matched with 3-4 kids on mic. Immediately on mic they’re shitty and disparaging to each other. They laugh at each others deaths, they actively work against team mates and self sabotage, they call each other “fags”, etc. From the sounds of the voices they cannot be older than 13-14.
I put on my mic and just decide I ain’t havin it. I am nice. I thank them for barricading doors or leaving me items. When they break free from Jason’s grasp I say “good job!” or I try to help them. One kid survived for most of the match by himself. When he dies, I tell him he did a fantastic job.
The mood shift is practically INSTANT. These kids almost immediately stop being dick heads. They start encouraging each other and being kind. After the match all of them try to friend request me. Which should tell you a couple of things:
A) kids want to be kind, and they want to have a nice time playing games. But encounters with adults like me or so rare that they’ve trained themselves to instantly put on a toxic, shitty, defensive veneer when encountering any new person online. It’s literally just THAT EASY to not groom a horrible gaming community, it’s just that NO ONE does it.
B) the speed of which they all tried to friend me was cute, but paints for me such a sad picture? Like these kids are SO desperate to find people to play with who aren’t crappy jerks. They played with me for 10 minutes TOPS and all instantly tried to reach out to me.
tl;dr: The kids are alright. Adults are shit heads.
Everything is 158% more scientific when you’re wearing a lab coat. Trust me, I’m a scientist.
My chemistry teacher usually wouldn’t wear his lab coat when doing experiments but once we were doing a flashy one outside just as class was ending and he was actually wearing it for once and a student from another class walked past us and screamed HE’S WEARING HIS LAB COAT at which the audience tripled at least with random people walking past because clearly thiswas actual dramatic science instead of him just doing the reactions all science teachers do like elephant toothpaste or something
He also once set me on fire but once again it was for science so it was fine
He did what now?
He did it with a whole bunch of us and he’d also set himself on fire earlier in the lesson so don’t worry we were all even
But like. When you say he set you on fire…?
I mean you can set people on fire and be fine just liek do it right. Or wrong. Depending on ypure point of view
honestly if you wouldn’t bond with a symbiote you’re a fucking idiot, like you get unbelievably powerful and sexy and all you have to do is what? not go in fire or listen to noises that sound bad? newsflash idiot i already dont go in fire or listen to noises that sound bad. dumbass. you gotta eat some living flesh once in a while? whatever dude easy shit
you dont even need to do that its canon that the symbiotes just need one chemical from people and its also found in chocolate so you get to be huge and sexy and eat a bunch of chocolate
With the right brain chemistry, you dont even need to do that. Phenethylamine, the chemical in chocolate that symbiotes crave, is naturally produced by your brain when you’re in love. Therefore, if you love and cherish your goth symbiote gf, you can be big and sexy with NO consequences.
