Always Be With You

HAPPY ACE WEEK FUCKERS

AND NONFUCKERS I FORGOT WHO IM TALKING TO

LGBTQ+ folk what was your gender/sexuality pipeline?

If you like the word “queer” reblog.

#fun umbrella. we r all sitting under it like the big rainbow thing in elementary school gym class

so when straight people ask me why I say I’m “queer” or “gay” instead of sharing my actual identity as a panromantic demisexual non-binary sapphic queer I just tell them “ok look, when you’re talking to someone who isn’t local and they ask you where you’re from and you either say the name of the largest city nearby or ‘town name, suburb of large nearby city’ so they can get some geographical context of where you’re located right, bc they’re probably not going to know the name of the little town you actually live in.”

but if you’re talking to a local you can say the name of your actual town bc they have a greater chance of knowing where/what that is.

ok well when I’m talking to a straight person I start with queer bc chances are they aren’t as familiar with the context of all the little towns in that big queer city and need gps (gay positioning system) to find me.

if I’m talking to another queer person and I say I live in a suburb of gay city in a town called panromantic on the demisexual side of the tracks which is in the county of queer and I live off the intersection of non-binary and sapphic, they’d probably be able to find me with little to no problems, make sense?

this is by far the best explanation of how asexuality and sexual attraction works

as someone who’s actually got no sense of smell, the actual comments i usually get are:

not even (x)?

you’re missing out on so much.

that must be great not having to deal with the bad ones.

did something happen to you?

can they fix it?

which like, all comments that i’m sure ace people have to deal with.

yep, 100%!

You can use an ace/aro spectrum label even if you think it may be temporary or may not always apply to you.

Lemme remind you all that the definition of 'queer' is literally 'odd'. Queer was and still sometimes is used as a synonym for 'odd'.

Gays are queer.

Lesbians are queer.

Bisexuals are queer.

Pansexuals are queer.

Nonbinary, genderfluid, agender, intersex and other genderqueer people are queer.

People who use neopronouns of any kind are queer

Transgender people, transfem or transmasc, are queer.

Asexuals are queer.

Aromantics are queer.

Aroaces are queer.

It doesn't matter what a person's sexuality, romantic interests or gender is. If it's not 'the norm', they are queer. It's the definition of the word for God's sake!

Be who you are, that's cool as shit.

You don't need to be in a romantic relationship or having sex to be queer. You are not required to partake in amatonormativity just to be seen as "Queer enough" You are queer enough as is. You repulsion is Queer enough. The only person who can decide if you're queer or not is you.

Above image is a pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

binary and nonbinary trans people are not at war with each other: we're making out, furiously

Reminds me of this top I wore for my local pride parade two years ago that I got at Wal-Mart:

(Not the exact design/style, because mine has more of like a '70s/'80s vintage faded t-shirt vibe/is also a crop top but it is this same dark grey colour so...

However this exact top is available at Wal-Mart in several colours.)

STAY SAFE!! [ID: the Gilbert Baker pride flag with the words “Happy pride to all those who are unable to celebrate openly and safely. You are loved and seen!” in all-caps black text over it. /end ID]

asexuals are queer pass it on

wow yall are still arguing in these notes huh

anyway asexuals are still queer, keep passing

When I say nonbinary people can look like anything I am aggressively including nonbinary people who have beards, body hair, and who are assumed to be cis guys, firstly because that’s also me and secondly because we’re always overlooked or subjected to cringe culture. Nonbinary doesn’t just mean skinny, pale and absent of gender signifiers.

[Don’t be an ass in the notes, I can turn off comments if I have to]

here, have some bi-ace solidarity

my favorite part about this is everyone tagging their ace/bi mutuals like "look!! it's us! it's you!!" target audience

stop being funnier than me on my own post
