Tree houses as the aromantic building?

They're isolated and we make them with friends so yeah

Isn't gravity making everything attract to each other ? Aren't we more like... Black matter, we have to exist because science but no one has ever seen us :)

You can't know. Scary thought, maybe there's a universe with romantic love as a fundamental force.

Gravity is romantic, for sure. But there's also entropy: the aro ➳ of time.

I like the idea of aromanticism causing everything to decend into chaos, thats the sort of power we deserve to have.

Garlic should be a symbol of aromanticism

Should? Is it not already?

[Atypique]

Garlic (especially garlic bread) is already a symbol for asexuality, so a lot of aro use it too, but it's not really our own thing

Ok, thanks for this info... I seriously didn't know this. I hope we are allowed to appropriate it, because there are already existing aro masterpieces ([1], [2]) that incorporate garlic. 🙃 Unknowingly I even egged people on...

So, now since only ice cream is original aro food, a dessert, we urgently need our own savory aro food, too.

I propose: onion cake!

Is it weird that it givese ideas for writing stories ? That would be a fun plot.

To save the people from the romanciverse, our aromantic heroes decide to use the force of chaos and black matter and destroy gravity.

 

I suppose it means Defying gravity is the aro musical song (Elphaba and Glinda are already in a QPR, right ?).

Asexuals want to invade a few countries. We, we want to destroy gravity.

That would be an awsome story! I am writing it right now!

Inspired by @AroAcedragon13's status update, 

is eating gummy frogs an aro ritual, where we absorb the power of the frogge, or is it an aro sin to be confessed

[Atypique]

That's a high dilemma. What would we if it was a heart gummy ? Eat it to destroy love, or keep it away cause that represents a weird thing ? Both questions are related

The can the song I Love You (As Much As Someone Like Me Can Love Anyone) be the aro TV show song? Although I guess it's a bit more aroallo than every-aro

There are much talk about aromantic food and aromantic mascot. But there are so many other types of thing we could have as symbol. Like flower, clothing, fish etc. (In my country each county has its county fish).

So pick any category and determine which thing is ours.
For example for sport it's off course archery.

 

 

Ooh, interesting! Which country is that?

But they're not particularly practical for women as it's hard to pee with them on.

Err, wouldn’t men have trouble with over-alls too?

as for flowers, i think daffodils would be a nice symbol, representing new beginnings (i've also heard that they represent awareness and inner reflection), along with the fact that they tend to be yellow in color, though i think yellow roses are a beautiful symbol too ?‍♀️

i suppose ice cream counts as an icon of sorts? i've seen in it in some welcoming messages (i'm assuming it's kind of like the aro equivalent of cake) and i remember someone on tumblr mentioning gryphons as an aro symbol too.

Yes to the ice cream and gryphons! I’ve heard about gryphons and ice cream being symbols too! 

I want Love Potion #31 from Baskin Robbins!

I think anyone with a d*ck can just zip the thing open and pee while standing

No need to facepalm! I took that line to mean live in general, or all sorts of love, not just romantic love (that she had for Edwards? I think was his name). Wasn’t she also referencing Coop’s love for his daughter, Murph, and vice versa? 

[Atypique]

For sure, people often think "romantic love but also the rest" when they say things like that. But that's still mostly perceived as romantic by almost everyone, so... 🙄

I used the human portraits for the Arocratic Star Empire of Quiver, but how could I forget about this species portrait:

Aro Stellaris...

Arocratic Star Empire of Quiver 🏹

Home planet: Quiver (yeah, this is Earth, after it was renamed)
Star system: Aronia (sounds way cooler than "Sol system", right?)
Founding species: Aros (ok, these are humans. But all humans became aro for unknown reasons, and so they started to call themselves Aros. Romantic love now has become long forgotten. There are still some surviving texts from the era when humans were romantic, but Aro archeologists simply cannot understand them. Maybe it has something to do with this mysterious dragon....)

Flavor text: Since time immemorial, this civilization has shared its star system with a formidable dragon. The mysterious creature's behavior sways between distant benevolence and haughty indifference. How this relationship will evolve as the planet dwellers take to the stars remains to be seen.

PS: yeah, I admit it, I threw too much of my hard earned money into the throat of Paradox Interactive. I indeed own ALL Stellaris DLCs.

Okay, I saw and instantly thought of Stellaris. Is this Stellaris?

Ngl all I can think of is the cupid shuffle or the chicken dance, some of the least romantic dances out there. As you can probably tell I'm not a dancer.

Oh, the irony. A dance called the *cupid* shuffle being least romantic? Ha!
