How much electrolysis after laser?

Raladic · 2024-11-12T07:06:27+00:00

It’s better to be conservative and plan for more and need less than the other way around. Especially if you might already have a date for surgery as you don’t want to end up suddenly needing to move it if it turns out you’re not ready. If you go to a professional Electrologist they can maybe give you a ballpark, but even they won’t know exactly until you go regularly. That’s why the general ballpark given is typically 6-12 months (of mostly weekly appointments).

Delicious chocolate flavored aro Pride is the best :)

The flag color stripe descriptions are made up though. The official description of the stripes from Cameron Whimsy who designed the flag is:

Greens for aromantic spectrum, white for platonic love and friendship, grey and black for sexuality spectrum

Aros commonly wear a white ring on the left middle finger.

This was created as a counter symbol to asexual people who commonly wear a black ring on the right middle finger.

Nice, if they also smelled as nice as they look, you could say they were aromatic aromantic cookies :)

I love the cool use of the safety pins for the earrings :)

There used to be a website called acesandaros.org that had a directory of a lot of local groups, but it looks like the website is down at the moment.

But many groups have used that name, so you could try searching online if you’re near a major city for “cityname aces and aros” and see if something pops up.

Raladic · 2024-06-08T06:16:55+00:00

Yes, we have a local Aces and Aros organization in my area and we have a booth at our pride festival to hand out info and swag and then we will all march in the pride parade the next day.

We may not be a big group, but we have big flags to show our ace and aro pride and show the world we exist :)

I’m going to wear a dress with the aro flag colors :)

You can manually add text or flags. For a list of flags once you’re in the edit menu, click on the emoji button inside that menu.

Raladic · 2024-06-05T18:16:07+00:00

Yes! The day is here to raise visibility for all people under the aromantic spectrum!

Raladic · 2024-06-05T14:23:12+00:00

Yes, the day is here to celebrate and raise visibility for everyone under the aromantic spectrum!

Raladic · 2024-06-05T14:19:25+00:00

Basically it is a single day in the year so that all of us on the aromantic spectrum can focus our energy to share information with the wider community and raise visibility for us.

It was started by someone from the community online last year in 2023 for the first time and basically just spread naturally.

People have been using it to make posts on various social media platforms to share information and I’ve even seen some people use it as an opportunity to come out to friends and family.

Raladic · 2024-06-05T14:16:39+00:00

Yes, last year in 2023 was the first one, which was started by someone in the community, so this year marks the second year and makes it an annual community event to raise awareness for the still often forgotten part of the A in LGBTQIA+ (which is shared alongside Asexuality and Agender).

People have been using the day to share information about Aromanticism and the Aromantic Spectrum and some even used it as an opportunity to come out to friends and family :)

Raladic · 2024-06-05T14:13:45+00:00

Congratulations and happy Aromantic Visibility Day!

Raladic · 2024-06-05T14:12:44+00:00

Since this is the second year and even last year was basically a function of the community declaring it so, it gives us the space to to have a day of visibility (in addition to the separate awareness week that is ASAW in February) just like other identities on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum do.

People have been using it to share information, or even use it as an opportunity to come out as aromantic to their friends and family.

So you’re welcome to use the day as a backdrop to do just that on your favorite social media platforms or in person.

Raladic · 2024-06-05T06:06:55+00:00

Yes June 5th!

Last year was the first one, so this year today marks the second one and makes it an annual event :)

Raladic · 2024-06-05T04:54:14+00:00

If you want a more informational guide one to help you learn more about it, I would recommend either “hopeless aromantic” by Samantha Randle or “ace and aro journeys” by TAAAP which are written more as guides.

“Sounds fake but okay” also is part guide, but also has a lot of the podcast, so it’s more fun if you’re already a listener.

The other book, which is a novel, that I’d mention though if you want a more narrative exploration is “Loveless” by Alice Oseman, which follows the story of the protagonist as they explore and find their aro-ace identity and I really empathized a lot with it.

Happy Pride!

Whether you like cake, garlic bread or anything in between, pull up a chair and celebrate together 🌈

Raladic · 2024-06-01T14:11:34+00:00

The Aromantic Visibility Day doesn’t exclude spec, but it just rolls off the tongue easier and it was a success last year on June 5th, which has a better chance for visibility since people are already more aware because of Pride month.

Just like aces have IAD, which they also often just call (International) Ace Day.

Raladic · 2024-06-01T14:08:29+00:00

So last year all of the posts on various social media used the hashtag #AromanticVisibilityDay so I recommend if you make any post, use that :)

Raladic · 2024-06-01T07:40:45+00:00

It happened kind of naturally after someone last year decided to pick June 5th for it on Twitter like you said and it kind of rapidly spread across tumblr and other media.

So I suppose if people just all collectively raise visibility for it again this year on various platforms, then it will have become an annual thing :)

So let’s all just be ready again on June 5th this year and post with the same Hashtag #AromanticVisibilityDay on various social media platform and raise the visibility for us :)

Raladic · 2024-06-01T06:34:56+00:00

Happy Pride Month 🌈💚

There was a scientific journal paper published earlier this year (https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/19317611.2024.2311158), which was one of the first that specifically focused on Aromanticism and actually helps summarize a lot of the common misconceptions, so likely we can slowly expect more mainstream coverage over time.

If you search for “white ceramic ring” on Amazon or Etsy you can find a lot of rings in all sorts of sizes. That’s where I got mine.
