  1. ready to skip to the part of my life where i'm financially stable, actually have a plan for the future, and am not being haunted by existential angst 24/7

  2. eager to finally go home for winter break but also dreading the inevitable conversations with my nosy, aphobic relatives who only try to support me when it's convenient

  3. the three pillars of aro culture are puns, memes, and salt

      I'm probably like 15% of the salt

  4. When I was younger I was never very good at recognizing my own feelings, but the one thing I was always certain of was that I didn't get crushes. It was only when I learned that was apparently wrong that I put a label to my orientation. I think for me the label "aromantic" is my way of taking the power back from the people who made me think who I am, who I've always known I am, is wrong.

     

    Just some thoughts.

  5. Honestly the only content for aro consumption is the same old "your identity is valid" regurgitated in a thousand different wordings, and validation is important and all but having been part of the aro community for a little over three years now i've found that not much has really changed; we have a bunch more haters and people trying to police our existence but we're not even on the mainstream's radar. Even our own awareness week saw a marked lack of content which is honestly depressing

     

    Some genuine representation and some people fighting for us when it really counts instead of just pretending to care about aros only when we're around would be nice, while the same old dusty positivity just leaves me empty

     

    Lmao this is what pride month has done to me

      To be honest, this is why I ended up leaving the community for a while. It just didn't seem to matter to anyone. And then I started having issues so here I am again, reaching out. But what can one person do? 

  6. I've finally reached 100 content count which makes me an advanced member! What should I set my member title as?

  7. Happy Aro Week (if you're in the US or if it's already Monday where you are)!

      You Americans and your starting the week on Sunday. Sunday is the weekend for a reason.

      @Zemaddog I thought Sunday was both.

  8. current mood: existential crisis

  9. If you're already in 2017, please tell me it's looking good so far.

  10. I need to post on the forums more often. :/

  11. i am now an adult

  12. when your friends bring up a really cringe-worthy memory from your past in which one of your other friends had a crush on you and you were never supposed to tell anyone and never wanted it brought up ever again but they bring it up right in front of both of you

     

    rip

  13. I'm really becoming upset with the fact that my country is creating a terrible future for me that I can do nothing about. Damn, I hope that makes them happy.

  14. I think I ought to start posting more on the forums... I'm not even halfway to a hundred posts yet! :rofl:

  15. The more this year goes on the more i realize i'm in too deep...

     

    I talk to my best friend maybe once per day and I highkey miss seeing her and am suffering

     

    there's no easy way to say "i lowkey want to 100% platonically spend the rest of our lives travelling the world together because i never want to stop seeing each other all the time for nearly 10 years"

  16. in the distance, a soft gentle weeping is heard

     

    i am done my college applications

     

    i feel so alive

  17. currently lowkey Sad™ because i have only one class with my best friend this year and i'm used to seeing her for most of the day

    and we're graduating this year so i'll barely see her after that

    i'm emotionally attached tbh

  18. so i made technopapo

    i have made a grave mistake it looks terrible but i know nothing about techno aesthetic i just kinda took a shot in the dark

     

    it doesn't even fit but u know i'm too lazy to fix it

      The original one was already good, but the new one is about 10x better. :arolove:

  19. Going to be offline for the most part until the weekend! I have band camp so I won't be active on the forums or the Discord chat.

      Take an extra water break for me--this is the second year I haven't had band camp because I'm in college now, and the absence still feels weird. Get out there and rock it!

      have fun!

      I remember that once I started doing pit that I genuinely liked band camp because it meant I got to play percussion all day without having to deal with school work. I don't miss it now that I study music performance and have much better access to instruments, but I still remember those days fondly. Have fun!

  20. Currently wondering why I'm still sitting at my computer listening to the same songs all summer instead of doing something productive. :facepalm:
