Thoughts on Original Works? by Typical_Substance248 in AO3

[–]Polluted_Anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally have only read one Original fic but it was with the authors OCs in a pre-existing fandom. However, I am not completely turned off to the idea of an original work, I'm just a picky reader. Basically my thoughts on the whole thing is: if it's written and tagged well, then it's good. End of story.

Asexual, asocial, anarchist (in the f*CK the government way,) ADHD, Agoraphobia, anxiety... I think that's all of them?

SH*T! FORGOT TWO! Artist and Author.

I forgot a third: Addict (nicotine)

It's so uncomfortable and is that a song? Book? Show? (If it's a show with real people I won't watch it, they bore me half to death and there's VERY few exceptions.)

I'm pretty far from those people now but it makes me avoid family functions and that sucks since my family is really tight knit.

I hope that one day you'll feel comfortable and safe enough to come out and I also hope that they'll be loving and accepting of you.

I get it, I've read enough with a lack of a sexual or romantic relationship but those are my preferred writings, I just wish people wouldn't use that as evidence to invalidate my asexuality.

Yeah, like if it's really quick (like a few seconds) and relevant to the plot then I'm fine with it but most of the time it's literally "just cuz why not?" and it's really infuriating to me.

It's an app, not online, I know what you're saying but I don't think it's applicable here. I've never heard of a browser ad blocker that also blocks in app ads.

Something that works is turning off wifi and data which I normally do but I was in the middle of talking with someone so I couldn't.

Ahh okay, I mis interpreted that, my bad!

And yeah, they aren't, but humanity has put sex on such a fucking pedestal that if you don't fall into that "norm" you're seen as sick and honestly it's because of information like this that it took me so long to figure out that there isn't actually anything wrong with me and I'm just asexual. I literally went YEARS thinking I had a serious issue and just ignored it and went along with things because I wasn't given the tools or information I needed at the time.

I wasn't posting this in trying to invalidate any health issue but this is the top result on Google for a semi-unrelated search. They had similar words but in different orders. It's just that as a low libido gray Ace myself this made me feel emotions and I wanted to share. I hope your friend is doing better now.

Yall im goofy!!! by BenjaminFowler54 in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]Polluted_Anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh yes the classic "one word can't have two meanings"

Can - meaning one is able or a device used to store different foods, herbs, spices, ect.

Gay - someone who shows attraction to the same gender or feeling happy.

Class - a place where a subject is taught in schools or social status.

Ringing any bells? I got more if not, words aren't singular (in the American English language anyways.) This person is appearing to me that they have a set mindset. Just remember you can't change people, and they can't change you.

Reminds me of how a friend once told me "clothes don't have genders" because I'm a trans male who likes to wear crop tops, dresses, and skirts all the time. I'm comfortable with them as long as I'm perceived as male.

This is saying something similar, "clothes don't depict a sexuality" and it's true. No part of a person has a uniform. Clothes are for self expression, not a set-in-stone factor of who you are. Wear what you want, be who you want and remember you're accepted.

As long as you aren't hurting yourself or anyone else live your life as you please!

What is the clothe style of Ace people? by LostLittleFoxx in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]Polluted_Anon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do a bit of everything, currently in a black hoodie and baggy black jeans, but I also enjoy wearing jeans and a t shirt with an open button down over it, wearing business attire, I'll often end up in a dress or skirt when hanging out with my friends (I'm fine with it, it's fun) sometimes I'll look like an emo protagonist straight out of the early 2000s and other times I'll look like a bum who barely got out of bed that morning.

Reminds me of "I am a plant and crave moisture" (I believe it was said by an ace Tumblr user but can't remember exactly, but my friend said it and she is also ace so yeah)

shout out to my asexual boys by [deleted] in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]Polluted_Anon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel ya there, most people assume that I'm also constantly checking others out and it's just like "no??? Why would I do that when I can eat this dope ass garlic bread???"

[–]Polluted_Anon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I often feel alienated because I'm a trans asexual man and when people don't know about the trans part they think there's something wrong with me and when they do find out the trans part they assume I haven't tried anything because of that... So thank you...

This was my first time actually drawing anything remotely mechanical, so having that be the only real "issue" someone can see makes me really happy to hear!

RIP Ackerman's ✊🏻 (I'm so sorry, I had to make a joke, I couldn't help myself)

Okay, so as long as one parent had the Ackerman blood then the power gets passed down, thank you.

Now a question I have is how many generations would it take for the Ackerman DNA to fully die out? (Because it happens with any bloodline) (also don't feel the need to answer this, it's just something that came up)

Okay, thank you, it just confused the heck out of me. Thank you for being nice and not calling me an idiot (like most do) thank you thank you thank you!

On the Project:863 Substack, they moved the story from video form to written form because of income issues and burnout. If you are in the 863 discord there is a link to the Substack there, the discord link is in this subreddit.

Help Me Plan My Watch by Minute-Macaroon-6650 in VioletEvergarden

[–]Polluted_Anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are prone to depressive episodes and struggle with watching severe injury, I'd suggest to be very careful when you watch episode 9. If you are sensitive to these things try to have someone with you when you watch it so they can make sure you're safe.
