lovers walk two by two,
doing things lovers do
they’re in love, where am i?
i see them on my way home,
how i hate to be alone
they’re in love, where am i?

“ There are times when I’m alone and I think, this is it. This is actually the natural state. All I need are my thoughts and my small acts of creation and my ability to go or do whatever I want to go or do. I am myself, and that is the point. Pairing is a social construction. It is by no means necessary for everyone to do it. Maybe I’m better like this.

i just noticed that my favorite asexual/aromantic blog is gone.

it was glad_to_be_a on livejournal, and it was the first thing that ever made me feel like being a. wasn’t less than. i know she stopped updating it ages ago, but i just saw that it’s been purged. does anyone know if it’s mirrored anywhere or if the author is blogging elsewhere anymore?

“ the only thing i can’t give joni is sex. the only thing chuck CAN give her is sex, from what i can tell. i never thought it would be a contest between the two. and i never, ever thought that it would be a contest i would lose.

“ i hate the phrase ‘more than friends.’ it’s such nonsense. when i’m going out with someone, we’re not ‘more than friends’—most of the time, we’re not even friends. ‘more than friends’ makes no sense. look at us. there’s nothing more than us.

“ I love this scene, this floating reality. I am a solo flier looking out over the land of Boyfriends and Girlfriends. I am three notes in the middle of a song.

pokes YA

sir-kit:

Give me more asexual characters! Or any asexual characters.

*commences attempts to write fan fiction casting a originally-happily-single-and-uninterested-secondary-character-who-later-pairs-off-with-his-female-best-friend as a demiromantic ace guy, purely because I had forgotten about the second bit when Ireread the book and began reading said character as ace, partially because I recognized some behavior patterns with relatives as mine and partially because I really, really wanted him to be ace*

… I probably have better things to do with my time. Oh well.

if you are writing ace tortall fic, I WILL READ ALL OF IT. (i actually always read kel as asexual/aromantic, which led to tamora pierce being the first person i ever came out to. my first dragon*con was INTENSE, y’all.)

i need to get back on my quest to find some books that put the A in YA, if only so i can go to the “alternate sexualities in YA” panel without having a rage blackout this year.

FACT: Anyone on the asexual spectrum has the power to repel hipsters by sheer force of will.
