The asexual possibility, on the other hand, introduces the threat that the secret is that there is no secret, that there is nothing to be found out, that the story may well lead nowhere. What asexuals hide is the fact that they have nothing to hide; their sexual secret is that they have no sexual secret. The asexual closet, then, is empty, is not even a closet—although to position asexuality as a sexual secret, as the content of a secret, as a depth concealed by a surface, is to give the asexual nothing the shape of a something. The search for secrets, of course, is what narrative is all about, and the asexual lack of a secret (which is also the lack of an object of desire) disrupts an epistemology and a model of subjectivity founded on the relation of surface to depth. This relation is a constitutive feature of both the novel and the modern sexual subject.

My elderly father started talking about how frustrating he finds “the pronouns thing” and I was like. Oh no. He had such a good stand on this, he’s been they/them-ing his cishet siblings for god’s sake! Is he regressing?? And he was talking about how difficult it is to remember, and how onerous it feels to expect strangers to keep track of it, and I’m like oh no oh no.

Then he says, “I mean, the problem isn’t the gender thing. The problem is four words: she, her, he, and him. We got rid of stewardess and turned it into flight attendant. It doesn’t matter if the flight attendant is a man or woman, so we got rid of it. We just need to get rid of those. I don’t need to know.”

“You don’t need to know… people’s gender?”

“No. I don’t care, I don’t need to know, and I don’t want to remember it.”

So we can relax. It’s just a continuation of his crusade to they/them the world. He doesn’t want to remember anyone’s gender. He’s abolishing the genders.

Happy two years Carpe Diem <3

[echoes-of-mia]

a few days ago I woke up in the middle of night and wrote a series of haikus about jayvik

Based on the thought that viktor probably gets used to the feeling of Jayce hands wether it’s for comfort, joy, support etc to the point he basically waiting and yearning for the next time it happens again Here is the text again in the proper format:

I am drawn to you your intelligence, your care are clouding my mind

The warmth of your hand for a moment I forget it is you and I I grow used to it the way you let it linger so cold when you leave longing to feel it again, waiting, desperate when will it return? Oh just one more time My mind, my body, pleading rest your hands on me

"My first language has a perfect saying for this, but it doesn't make sense in english :("

Say it anyway! You don't owe them perfect clarity. Be profoundly cryptic, speak in riddles, make them ponder what the fuck you meant by that. The anglos, like porridge, must sometimes be stirred, so they don't burn stuck on the bottom of the pot.
