My normal weekend schedule:
- Excitedly decide I'm going to spend all weekend working on my personal projects (writing, drawing, sewing projects, etc.)
- Friday: Be lazy and don't do them
- Saturday: Sorta do them
- Sunday: Get really excited to do them
- Sunday: Remember I do, in fact, have homework
- Sunday: Panic

Yknow sometimes I see aros (and aspecs in general) on other parts of the internet dismiss certain labels, concepts, etc. as being mainly “””tumblr things”””. But you know what? I think instead of ignoring and invalidating a sizable chunk of the aro community, maybe you ought to ask yourselves: What is it that Tumblr's doing that so many aros gravitate towards? Why do these aros not choose to join wherever it is that YOU congregate? What can you learn from Tumblr aros, and why do you automatically think our community development isn't as valuable as yours?
Food for thought.

"Meh meh fanfiction isn't real writing!" Mm yeah, hold up, I'll get back to you on that when I'm not 5 hours deep into extremely specific research about the details of living in one particular neighborhood in Cairo, Arabic naming conventions, Japanese sign language, the psychological effects of prolonged isolation, and vampire folklore in non-European cultures

ADHD culture is having to reread like three chapters of your own writing because you haven't worked on it in a few months and almost completely forgot about the subplot involving the protagonist being tricked into drinking human blood, which would be a bad subplot to just kind of abruptly drop

After 11 years straight of decidedly Not caring about Yugioh, my friend convinced me to watch it easily just by telling me that Yami is voidpunk, and you know what? I don't regret it at all
-
Also, on that note? Nobody's allowed to tell me I should strive towards publishing unless they're volunteering to personally hook me up with Shueisha, Square Enix, or Marvel. Thanks

And like, I guess there's always the gen Jojo server, but it's so small... We only have about four, maybe five actual active members, two of whom are more like semi-active...

Disappointment is finally finishing a skirt after like a week of working on it, excitedly trying it on, only to be met with the discovery that it needs a side zipper because you can't fit your butt in it
-
Forever really salty that Moffat and Gatiss can write a modern AU that’s frankly pretty OOC and win awards for it, but whenever I write fanfiction it’s “not ~real~ writing” like holy double standards Batman
-
God I just want people to talk to about some of my aro headcanons, but god knows aro headcanons aren't hip and trendy enough in fandoms to warrant actual discussion beyond two or three isolated aros going "I think this character should be aro"

I FOUND OUT SIMONE FROM POLYGON IS ARO AND I FEEL LIKE I FUCKING HALLUCINATED HER ENTIRE TWITTER FEED BECAUSE I'VE NEVER EVER SEEN A (SEMI-)PUBLIC FIGURE WHO'S ARO AND I'M SO HAPPY I FEEL LIKE I'M GOING TO PASS OUT, IS THAT NORMAL?

I have this aro (well. idk if that was the intention behind it, but) hair bow I got at a convention last year that I really love, and today I found the same fabric on sale at the fabric store! ?I bought some of course, but now I have to decide what to make with it. It's quilt fabric so tbh it's highly likely it'll wind up being a skirt, lmao.

I struggled a long time with not being able to find a label for myself, and feeling lesser or alone because of it, but now I almost wish I could go back to that time. Ever since becoming aware of my aro-ness, I've honestly felt worse than I have in a long time- not because I think being aro is bad, but because of amatonormativity, arophobia, the fear of spending my life alone, etc. I know nothing should really have changed, since I've always been aro, by all means I should feel better now that I know what I am... But I guess ignorance is bliss, or whatever
-
I think one of my mutuals may have caught me vagueing on my aro blog, and now I feel bad, but also paranoid because she's not supposed to know that blog exists... Guess I'll Die™

I wish aro socks existed. But nobody wants to acknowledge us in their cutesy pride merch.

Yeess thank you for saying that. I've had to custom make my own flag like I was a corporation because I couldn't find any aro flags on site that sells pride merch. And the logo needs to be approved by employees so people that I don't know are gonna have to discuss with me about my logo and the proportion and everything. It doesn't make me anxiouus at aaaaall. I shouldn't have to go to this trouble to be able to be properly proud at a pride. It really sucks.

Here's some aro socks. A fellow arocalypse user introduced me to this website.

@Naegleria fowleri I love this. And the shipping cost aren't that high. Thank you so much I'm gonna rock that pride.

IT'S PRIDE MONTH LET'S GO THROW SOME BRICKS AT COPS

Maybe I'm materialistic because stuff is more reliable than people... ?

Me, who has "ANTI-PEDOPHILIA" in her blog title in all caps, is very vocal about it: (Posts pictures of two very reasonable, mature, and modest dresses) Hey guys, I'm trying to expand my lolita wardrobe, which should I buy?
Some dumbass anon who has apparently never heard of the concept of homophones and can't be bothered to take two seconds to google anything: Ummmm have you tried not sexualizing children you scum :/// Do you even know what that book is about ://////// -
Obsessed with the way Johnny's hat gets wider and wider every game. He's like vertical Doug Dimmadale

Oh god, I just realized next month is pride month. Kill me.

Our friendship is strong but is it strong enough to withstand differing opinions on how to pronounce "Arceus"

PSA: Even if you think you're bad at sewing, I promise you your stuff will look much, much neater if you ACTUALLY IRON/PRESS THINGS BEFORE YOU STITCH THEM. ESPECIALLY HEMS. NEVER TRY TO SEW A HEM WITHOUT PRESSING IT OH MY GOD. Anyway I'm entirely convinced nobody is actually as ~terrible~ at sewing as they believe they are, it's more an issue of proper technique and prep work. Please believe in yourselves and p l e a s e press your fucking hems

Sewing a dress seemed like a much simpler idea before I learned that my bust measurement is so goddamn nonexistent that every bodice sloper tutorial I've found just Cannot Compute, and it's half a fucking foot smaller than the smallest size in Otome no Sewing
