#autistic asexual aromantic agender

[faerynova]

i know in my heart césar is some flavor of nonbinary but the thing is that CÉSAR doesnt know that and never will. if you presented césar with the concept of being agender he would say "huh! thats interesting!" and move on with his day without even considering applying the label to himself. hes too autistic to put that much thought into his own identity hes got better things to be doing

To celebrate all the autistic queers of Tumblr, I made y'all some pride art as a way to celebrate your sexual and neurological identity.

P.S. If you're wondering why the infinity symbol is gold, it's because I read that it's also a symbol for autistic people (and it helps the pride colours stand out more)!

P.P.S. If there is a pride symbol/icon/colours that you'd like that isn't on here, feel free to send me an ask or a DM, and I'll have it ready for you!

aromantic people deserve to have their own spaces, have their own voices be heard, and be more than just a second thought or a footnote on the asexual community

Finds out I'm ace - never really cared about sex anyway.

Finds out im aro - never needed relationships either

Finds out I'm agender - that's probably why I've felt like a body all this time

Finds out I'm aplatonic - okay, how much deeper will my loneliness go?

Finds out I'm autistic - goddammit

i think to simplify laios to "he just wants to fuck the monsters" is a misunderstanding of laios's character. laios wants to be the monsters. laios delights in monstrosity. laios doesn't understand humans and doesn't like them and finds solace in the monstrous. laios wants to understand and devour and analyse every part of monsterdom. to ingest something is to integrate it into a part of yourself. he also wants to fuck the monsters, as a consequence of this

Bought really pretty mushroom earrings today and it is the start of what my aesthetic will be when I move out of my parents house for university and cut off all my hair, buy a binder, and start living as androgynous as fucking possible

You know, one of the reasons it took me so long to figure out I was aromantic was because the depth and intensity of the platonic feelings I had for the select few people in my life always read, especially to other people, as being on the same level as romantic feelings. But really, I just care deeply about my friends and there are certain people that I just feel a strong pull towards in regards to wanting to be their friend. My past relationships would talk about the types of feelings they had for me and it always felt like "yes, I feel that too, but in a different way". I didn't know how to describe it or why I felt so much repulsion when people would romantically tell me they loved me while I was filled with such joy and comfort when my friends would tell me they loved me.

I'm incredibly introverted, I do not want or need to have loads of friends. But instead of people accepting that having a few, intimate friends was valid, I was told that I just hadn't met "the one", or that I was possibly polyamorous, or, worse yet, I was somehow broken.

I still struggle a lot with that imposter feeling, like I'm "not aro enough" but I am enough. I am not broken. There is nothing wrong with me. This label is as valid for me as it is to anyone else who is aro.

Doing a Murderbot reread to prepare for the next book in November, and this bit in the first book:

"Though I think that even if I did have sex-related parts I would find them boring."

I loved what someone in here said, that for constructs, their gender divide seems to be "murderbot / sexbot". But I also love the implication that Murderbot isn't sex repulsed because it's a construct, it's sex repulsed because it's just asexual.

Making Friends?

For me, making friends remains an enigma. A complex, unsolvable algebraic equation. I know that the fault lies with my unique and quirky personality, but I have no clue how to rectify the situation. For I see the world through a monotropic lens. A neurodivergent lens. An AuDHD lens. An AroAce lens. An agender lens.

I tend to push people away when I get sucked into an "attention tunnel" that transforms into a Minoan maze. A maze that can take hours, days, months to find my way through. Sometimes, I hyper-focus on a special interest that I had since childhood: doo-wop, ancient civilizations, dinosaurs. Other times, I hyper-focus on a short-term special interest: Elvis Presley, underwater search and recovery, indie horror games, psychology.

I tend to push people away when I don't know the social script I should follow; and therefore, I come across as weird and a bit creepy: I rock from side to side, walk on my toes, play with the tag on my shirt, and summarize each one of my special interests to see if any of them lands. Rarely does my communication style prove effective. Once, I freaked out somebody when I told them that I liked cookies dipped in orange juice. From that day forward, they avoided me like the plague.

I tend to push people away when I develop a "squish" on them. I'll want to know everything about them and to spend all my free time with them. To go with them on long, meandering walks; to go with them to museums, historical monuments, and concerts; and to go with them to parks filled with vibrant colors, tantalizing scents, and breathtaking sights.

I tend to push people away when I tell them I'm agender and prefer they/them pronouns. They can't see beyond the binary world they have concocted from gossamer thread and cotton candy daydreams. Forever they see the world in black and white, never shades of gray. Forever they see the world as gay or straight, never all the sexualities in between or those not even on the spectrum. Forever they see the world as male or female, never taking into account that intersex and nonbinary people exist. Forever trapped in a world full of sharp edges and precipitous cliffs.

I feel doomed to constantly drown in a tidal wave of societal norms and exceptions written in a foreign language lost to the ravages of time. Doomed to have no friendships beyond the one I made in senior school. Doomed to wander amid this massive swarm of humanity always befuddled and forever flummoxed.

Well, that's all I have for today. Until next time, take care and stay curious.
