And the universe said "I love you because you are love".

Are you okay babe? You’ve reblogged the I know love is real post 193893 times

“Lol” hasn’t meant “laughing out loud” in like 15 years… it’s just a word now and more importantly it’s the perfect way to end a sentence lol

So true… I have never gained anything useful from tone indicators except for learning that some sentences suddenly end in a handjob

romance isn’t dead it’s just very sleepy

I thought I recognized this art so i looked at op’s blog

idk if y'all remember this homophobic mess of a comic. Granted people can change but op’s more recent stuff reflects the same views.

hi! wow, you have a good memory, this was almost a year ago!

I think you might have misinterpreted the comic. the joke was how she, an ace person, could forget something as obvious and familiar to other people as sexual attraction! I thought her reaction was so funny I suggested making a daily comic about it.

Lyd is my girlfriend! We’re in love! Passionate lesbian love. For four years now! Since that comic we moved in together and we’ve started building savings for our life together! We talk online (Twitter, we don’t really use tumblr) about struggles we face, homophobia, lesbian history and representation, and the intersection of being gay with being ace, not ace, gender conforming, and gender non-conforming. That comic you’re saying is homophobic might look like it to someone without the context of our life, and maybe it did cause a sapphic woman to feel alienated due to her sexual attraction. I understand that because I’ve felt that way many times from the words of both lgbt and non-lgbt people alike. But it was an accident, and while that can’t take away the damage, I promise that Lyd’s comics showing our happy life together, our posts online, even our youtube channel all do infinitely more good for fellow sapphic women and other lgbt people than this comic did bad. Lyd apologized for the misunderstandings and lack of clarity.

Please stop holding other lgbt people to an impossibly high standard. We have so many enemies in this world, the last thing we need is to be attacking each other for the smallest infractions.

how tf is “allosexuals experience sexual attraction” homophobic

ace lesbian: *makes a comic about being an ace lesbian*

exclusionist: the HOMOPHOBIA Y’ALL

ace lesbian: *makes

a comic about being

an ace lesbian*

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

For the people who are wondering how “allosexuals experience sexual attraction” is homophobic: that comment is from 2017, aka, the great wank people liked to call “ace discourse”, which is when a lot of people decided that asexuals don’t belong in the LGBT community and started large-spread harassment campaigns towards asexual people and anyone who defended us. They were called “exclusionists”.

One of the exclusionist “talking points” was that asexuality, just by itself, was homophobic and all asexual people are homophobic, no exceptions. Yes, the whole orientation. Yes, even when there are homoromantic asexuals. No, it didn’t make sense even back then. So of course, to an exclusionist, a statement like “allosexuals feel sexual attraction” is homophobic because it indirectly mentions asexuality, which is homophobic.

Ace discourse was fucking stupid. I hope this helps.

A lot of ace hate also, wholesale with barely alteration, recycled conservative homophobic talking points word for word, literally just replacing the word “gay” with “ace” to get such gems as:

But yeah, think of any Conservative Homophobic/Transphobic talking point, and replace “gay” or “trans” with “Ace” and you will have the bullshit that Exclusionists spouted proudly. Most of them still do so, and of course, their latest target is M-spec (multi-spectrum) Lesbians, and before that it was bisexuals, trans people, etc.

Exclusionists literally just pick new targets every few years, and it’s literally designed to funnel people into TERF ideology.

Most TERFs proudly proclaim how being ace Exclusionists is what led them on the path to Radical Feminism.

It’s not an accident, and it never was.

Solidarity or Death.

The only people who want to put wedges between the Queer Community are its enemies, not its allies.

it is crazy how “if this childrens show doesn’t kill their villain at the end it’s irredeemable media” became such a popular opinion here. like people were calling steven universe fascist apologia. and to be clear I don’t even think that would be the case for non childrens media, either. perhaps holding every single story up to the same standard of “does it follow the acceptable narrative path or is it evil propaganda” isn’t the most anti-fascist thing, either. maybe.

"you are morally obligated to murder your enemies" is also perhaps not the most anti-fascist thing

"The death penalty is the only true form of justice" is not actually something I think children should be taught.

one of the most infuriating things about becoming an adult is when you realize that it actually is 10x easier to solve problems by making a phone call vs literally any other communication method

hey boss i can't come in today it's a sunny day and there's a lovely breeze coming in through my window, yeah it's rustling the branches of the tree outside that's finally bloomed so it's pretty serious

MAJOR UPDATE

Very important update from our friend @moatazart! Please read!!!

Moataz, Mariam, and Maria are SO close to having enough money to rebuild their lives in Egypt! Their paperwork is started and they are preparing for the dangerous journey south. However, the processing fees were extremely high, and consumed all of the money they had set aside for living expenses in Egypt. The goal is now to raise enough money for basic necessities!

If you can give even just a few dollars, it would be an immense help! If every one of our followers gave just $2, or if even half of our followers gave just $4, Moataz’s family would meet their goal!

HERE IS THE DONATION LINK!!! You can also click the link below

PLEASE keep up the momentum! Let’s help this family escape genocide!

Thank you all so much❤️

me, whenever someone asks what I like to do for fun

'Irredeemable media' is such a funny concept to me because it's never used for stuff like Birth of a Nation or A Serbian Film. It's always The Owl House or My Hero Academia because these people only watch things for children and can't stand any conflict more complex than Super Mario Brothers.

happy nick valentines day! time to think about him!
