    I've recently been having a look at this funny thing in US law called in rem jurisdiction. which just throws out some of the silliest sounding names i have heard.

    because in the US cases are described as a v b (i'm used to a and b) it always sounded like a fight to me, and in rem makes that really stupid because the case is bought against the item, rather than the presumed owner.

    so you end up with things like

    South Dakota v. Fifteen Impounded Cats

    United States v. 11 1/4 Dozen Packages of Articles Labeled in Part Mrs. Moffat's Shoo-Fly Powders for Drunkenness,

    or 

    United States v. Article Consisting of 50,000 Cardboard Boxes More or Less, Each Containing One Pair of Clacker Balls

    or my new favourite 

    Quantity of Books v. Kansas

    which the books won. 

    these titles are funny and the fact that a big old court named them like this makes it even funnier

     

    in other news, have you heard of lularoe?

    it has an epic af documentary called lularich which goes into amazing fucking details with interviews from ex employees and stuff

    im super into MLMs n stuff

    I'm also a moderator on AVEN. I made this meme based on the complaints of a new member we're dealing with there. "Admods" means administrators & moderators.

    i dont think ive seen said member, but then again, i tend not to deal with drama too much

  6. i feel like aroace priviledge isnt a thing

    i mean, me being aroace, i can never find any rep on TV or books (and especially in the fantasy genre, it's like searching for water in a dessert)

    i feel like i might cme out as "straight passing" but am i really?

     

    aphobia exists, people think those without romantic/sexual attraction need to be fixed, they believe romance and sex is above all else, etc.

     

    i think having feelings (or lack of) isnt a competition.

    everyone who isn't straight/cis is queer in some form. that's the only thing that should matter.

    who is oppressed more or not is irrelevent and makes shit sound like a game

  7. i like being aro because of the culture

    i like knowing that romance isn't the only way to wither up and die, i can live a life with friends and family alone and be just as happy as if i had a partner

    i feel more able to express that aspect of myself, because for far too long i've hidden it away and pretended to want those things when all i want is a solid career and to make stuff for others

     

    i think that i love being aro because the thing i've supposedly been supposed to feel for years doesn't seem to come for me, and the term for not feeling those things exists.

    sure, it's not commonly talked about compared to gay, bi, pan, lesbian, and trans people, but it's a thing.

     

    i feel like even tho the other letters of the lgbt experience heteronormativity, there's an even greater evil of compulsory romance and i feel that arospecs see that a lot more clearly than some members of the community do.

    and i also feel like in our own way, we have our struggles, but in the end we can find a solution as one

     

    sounds kinda sappy. i know.

    at the same time, i feel more confident as i slowly accept this part of myself more and more. i guess im more able to talk  more about my experiences with a level of confidence i've never had before. you could say i feel empowered by aromanticism and i guess im more confident in my identity, even to those im not out to (which is a large number of people. you'd be surprised how irrelevant romance actually is in an irl conversation. there's rarely a chance to talk about it)

    as i said before, and as other ppl said, having nor romance leaves time for more important things, from my hobbies and my TV shows obsessions to having dreams of being a TV director and doing math and all the boring subjects (and also the fun ones! like woodworking/technological design!).

    tbh, i wasn't aware romance took up people's actual time in the first place, so knowing that it supposedly does kinda leaves me with free time where usually romance hormones would be doin shit

    Well that's a shame.

    I don't like them based on the homophobia part but they are your parents so they must have done something right

    yeah i think so too

    Your loss, imagine not having gay mums

    instead i have straight cis and homophobic parents

     

    but i also like my parents as they are so-

  10. i love eating whenever there's food around (that im not allergic to)!

    trying new things is sorta my hobby with food (sometimes)

     

    even as a kid i'd see those lil free samples and consistently come back for more free samples because they probably tasted good

     

    as a social activity? idk

    but i eat whether or not there's people around, although if others are eating i'd be inclined to eat as well because then i'd get jealous
