    GRAPES.

    in Aromantic Pride and Culture

    Best grapes are any that make good wine.

    I remember once I tried grapes that are the grapes from a few common wine varieties and for some reason it really surprised me that they tasted somewhat like the wine they make. Which should be really obvious but I just didn't expect it.

    Favorite names?

    in Off Topic

    I do like the name Eleanor. From what I have heard was from this French monarch called Eanor who named her daughter Eanor. So people started calling her daughter Alia Eanor, basically meaning the other Eanor . I find that quite funny  that this name basically comes about because people can't be arsed dealing with her having the same name as her mum.

     

    Another great name is Michael. It comes from the Hebrew 'who is like the lord' , which sounds cool as hell but unfortunately its meant as a question so michaels can't shoot lightning out of their fingers or anything.

    hey hey :) is it also okay to write something if I'm not that old (I'm 23)? like, more about what (that is connected to aromanticism) I fear about getting older and what maybe I start noticing as a difference in being a young adult compared to being a teenager? or is it more for elder Aros?

    absolutely you can write something, no restrictions on who can write a response.

    In fact tried to make sure there were also some prompts specifically aimed for younger aros, about your expectations for the future, what you want older aros to know, long term hopes for the aromantic community. 

    so it would be fantastic to see what you would write.

    It is difficult to see what is being written in the 'reason for edit' box and in the search bar, because of the specific shade of dark grey that is used for the text. It blends in with the black, or the background colour of the box/bar.

    i'm having a look at this, just cannot seem to work out which of the text options changes this one.

    ... and if possible the black symbols (speech bubble icon) should be light on dark too.

    this is being a pain, i dont know how to make that light on dark at the moment, not sure how to change the colour of the icon bits but i have found where to change the background so have currently changed it to dark on light grey rather than the dark blue, what do you think of that?

    The carnival is mine this month:

    https://roboticanary.wordpress.com/2022/11/30/december-2020-carnival-of-aros-getting-old-call-for-submissions/

    for those who dont know, the carnival of aros is a monthly event where one person puts out a theme for people to blog about. this month is my turn and I have asked people to talk about getting old as an aro, the impacts of being aromantic as you age for example, and the changes in the aromantic community as time goes by.

    if you have anything you want to submit, the linked post gives details for ways to do that, or just make a comment here to tell me.
