    America's caste system is on display in Arocalypse's Discord. An African American just told me to shut up because I'm only a Native American.

      I reported the comment, but I don't know how well moderated Discord is. I'm irritated & uncertain.

      I don't know a huge amount about how Discord works I'm afraid but I hope it gets handled properly. In the meantime, I hope one awful person out of the whole discord server won't ruin your experience, you don't deserve that

      Also, a serotonin boost: https://jaubaius.tumblr.com/post/668260900961239040/baby-elephant-chasing-birds

      Well, I managed to return to that discord & speak my peace.  A lot of people are taking his side though.

    Fellow AVEN refugees:  I'm now moderator of Philosophy, Politics and Science. Don't know how much I can improve the culture of that site, but I'll do my best.

      My account's been deleted and I don't plan returning, even if I had more time, anytime soon. But good luck anyway...

      im not exactly an AVEN refugee as i am "AVEN is blocked on the computer so i use this site instead" kinda guy, but gl

      i personally hang out in the fun section (because politics with adults is kinda bland, the're so serious about it) so idk nothin about the philosophy forum

       

      like i said, wish u luck on your mod travels!

      I'm sure you'll do well! Moderation certainly is no easy task, but I trust you're more than skill full enough for the task.

    Arocalypse is mentioned in this video.  It's set it to start just before, but I recommend the whole thing.

      Oh, I saw this the other day. Though I'm not sure I'd call this a mention. It's on screen as the first search result though so heck yeah.

      Yeah, it's a shame he was concentrating only on the Reddit entry.

      Considering he's a redditor by profession I guess it's not really too surprising.

    I accidently added a background, but this site just won't let me add a profile picture.

      Hi! I had the same problem at first. It seems that the only file type that works for profile photos is .png

      It also may be tied to post count, I'm not sure.

    2. Alaska Native Manitou

      Alaska Native Manitou

      Thanks.  To be honest I don't even know what the difference between jpg, png or all the others.  I just know I had a lot more choices on other sites.  And for some reason it says it accepts many different file types.

    Are you ready for tomorrow?

      I made it through.  After that unbelievable heat it went down to the 60s that night.  Today it only got up to 90--and I can't believe that I'm saying 90 degrees is an improvement!

    I've been showing She-ra and the Princesses of Power to my BFF.  At the beginning of season 5, episode 7 I said "Perfuma & Scorpia start flirting in this one."  She replied "Haven't they been flirting all along?"  It seems my aromantic mind just couldn't tell until it was obvious.

      I didn’t think they were flirting at all, lol.

      I only noticed the episode 7 flirting after the woman who made the show publicly stated that they became a couple at the end of the series.  https://shipping.fandom.com/wiki/Scorfuma

    AVEN is being renovated with the help of Invision. It's a little more like Arocalypse now.  There are a lot of technical difficulties though.  The good news is they now have a dark theme that's easy on my sensitive eyes.

      oooh. Hopefully this is good news for moderators

      Yeah, the problem is that the react button is giant, and just solid grey. It also obscures status updates for me. Otherwise its great!

  9. Alaska Native Manitou

    What is the Hide switch for?  At the bottom of posts I make--next to the Submit Status button--is a switch that says Hide.  Why make a post then not let anyone see it?

    1. Momo

      Momo

      It's not very useful there, but you can also hide posts after you create them by using the drop down options menu as a psuedo-delete option. We don't let people delete posts for moderation reasons but we do let people hide their own posts so that other regular users can't see it anymore if that's something they want to do.

    My internet is getting cut off tomorrow.?  I don't know when I can get a new connection.  See you when I can.?

      Oh man, I hate it when that happens! Luckily I have unlimited data on my family’s phone plan so I’m safe… for the most part.

      I wish you all the best; hopefully you have something to entertain yourself until the Internet comes back, otherwise it’s going to be a rough few days for you.

    What a relief.  Does the site look a little different, or am I imaging that?  I'm pretty new to the online world, so I don't know how to be a moderator & couldn't help.

      The site does look different; I'm pretty sure that the bolded titles of the subforums used to be green instead of black.

    My electricity is back on.  There have been storms here in Oregon, & everything was covered with ice.  A lot of tree branches broke & pulled down power lines.  Going through town now, there are still blackouts & some houses have been damaged.  I'm luckier than some.  ce2c8260-f616-4d37-8c4b-85b690816691_750

    One Topic at a Time made another aromantic memes video.  

     

  18. Alaska Native Manitou

    My notifications were confusing today because there are 2 topics I follow called "Aro memes," & there were posts in both.

    My, first I was offline for 6 months, then I could visit again, then Arocalypse was down.  I was getting anxious; thank goodness it's back.

    Yesterday I rode my bike through hail. ☄️ Then the sun shone bright ☀️ later it was overcast and raining. 🌦️  The weather in western Oregon is like that some days.

    I found this word "apocalypsing" describing how some alloromantics go off the deep end.?  Funny that it's so close to the name of this website.:arocapapo:  https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Apocalypsing

    An observation: some allosexuals think it's disturbing that someone might want sex but not love. Yet I've heard plenty of them brag about having "friends with benefits," "sex friends" or "f**k buddies."

    My previous username (2 Spirit Cherokee Princess) seemed to confuse some people, so I'm changing it.
