To all acespec knights, this week belongs to you! I want you to know that you deserve to take space, to be recognized, and you deserve to be seen. This week is the ideal time to remember that asexuality is a valid and wonderful part of our world - shout it loud and clear! And, above all, stay proud ⚔️💪
Current Mood: Crying While Watching Blue’s Clues Pride Song
It’s sung to the tune of The Ants Go Marching One By One song!!!
Another reason why Blues Clues and You is like the best reboot ever
some highlights from the notes 💖
Stop.
Oh, my god. I’m already crying with asexuality included.
Now you’re telling me other groups feel the same way?
There’s legit tears down my face.

The more you look at it the more you love it.
The drag queen is holding a BLM sign.
There’s a Hijabi on the all races float (and if you look closely at the flag, I think the owl is indigenous).
One of the babas is disabled.
They could have just stopped at including all the flags.
But no. They said “I don’t care if they’re animals. I’m going to make it very clear we’re including all races and disabled people.”
And it’s such small details, but they’re there.

Found 2 more hidden BLM flags.
And I consider myself pretty versed in queer identities, but even I don’t know what some of these flags are.
Which really shows that you’ve never had the opportunity to feel validated like this, and that makes me love it even more.

I already made my own post about this as well, but it seems like a good idea to add the info on this post too, since it’s really taken off. There are (at least) 30 different flags plus assorted other representation. They include:
Pride, Progress Pride, BLM Progress Pride, Lesbian, Gay Man
Trans, Nonbinary — Dolphin wheelchair user, Top surgery beaver
Gender Queer, Genderfluid, Intersex Demigender, Demiboy, Demigirl, Bisexual, Pansexual, Asexual, Demisexual, Gray Asexual, Aromantic — Blind bird
Bigender, Genderflux, Omnisexual, Neutrois, Maverique, Pangender, Drag — llama(?) with prosthetic leg
Trigender, Ally, Two-Spirit, and Gender Questioning — Hijabi owl and Native American owl
I’m so fucking happy for the LGBTQ+ kids that have things like this to let them know they’re valid
This much representation including stuff I’ve never fucking seen before
and in a KIDS show, like that’s insane, people will finally grow up knowing it’s ok to exist
Blues clues did their research, said LGBTQ+ rights and fucking meant it bruh

I Danced Today, It Was Fun:
This is gonna be a thread now because apparently I'm only allowed one video per post.
Also tagging @karaidemon because I'm evil 😈
Do y’all see the DISRESPECT I have to deal with?
Looks like it’s time for my bi-yearly contribution to this fandom 🎉
- Meet Remus’ best friend.
- His name is Princeton.
- Remus thinks that name is just ridiculous, but he doesn’t want to call him Princey (because of… Reasons™).
- So. He calls him Printy.
- Remus is his only real friend and that’s purely because once Remus chooses a person it’s basically impossible to get rid of him (though not for lack of trying on Printy’s part).
- Printy can be… a lot. He’s got a lot of rage, and that rage is tangled up in obsessive-compulsive tendencies. He’s very ritualistic, and very particular about certain things and needs everything to be just so before he’s comfortable doing various tasks.
- He never does anything for free, so if you need a favor you have to first get him whatever item he’s currently fixated on (usually involving colors or patterns).
- Remus claims to have seen him smile once, but no one believes him because “evil smirks don’t count”.
- Talking to both of them at once can be stressful because they are both prone to outbursts so at any given moment you have to be ready for one of them to shout whatever crosses their mind.
- He’s in a band called CMWhyK.
Alright back into the abyss I go. 🤘
HE NEEDS MAGENTA!!!!!

How To Carry Your Hippie Punk
How To Carry Your Hippie Punk: By Roman Stone (And Annika Archer)
Random Annika Fact
She’s a Plant Queer. It does not matter if she has 600 houseplants, she will forever love another one. It does not matter what plant it is. The quickest way into her heart is to give her a plant.
I had a dream that the king and the queen of a small country had a daughter. They needed a son, a first-born son, so in secret, without telling anyone of their child’s gender, they travelled to the nearby woods that were rumoured to house a witch.
They made a deal with that witch. They wanted a son, and they got one. A son, one made out of clay and wood, flexible enough to grow but sturdy enough to withstand its destined path, enchanted to look like a human child. The witch asked for only one thing, and that was for their daughter.
They left the girl readily.
The witch raised her as her own, and called her Thyme. The princess grew up unknowing of her heritage, grew up calling the witch Mama, and the witch did her very best to earn that title.
She was taught magic, and how to forage in the woods, how to build sturdy wooden structures and how to make the most delicious stews. The girl had a good life, and the witch was pleased.
The girl grew into a woman, and learned more and more powerful magics, grew stronger from hauling wood and stones and animals to cook, grew smarter as the witch taught her more.
She learned to deal with the people in the villages nearby, learned how to brew remedies and medicines and how to treat illness and injury, and learned how to tell when someone was lying.
Every time the pair went into town, the people would remark at just how similar Thyme was to her mother.
(Thyme does not know who and what she is. She does not know that she was born a princess, that she was sold. She only knows that one night after her mother read her a story about princesses and dragons, her mother had asked her if she ever wanted to be a princess.)
((Thyme only knows that she very quickly answered no. She likes being a witch, thank you very much, she likes the power that comes with it and the way that she can look at things and know their true nature.))
The witch starts preparing the ritual early, starts collecting the necessities in the winter so they can be ready by the fall equinox. Her daughter helps, and does not ask what this is for, just knows that it is important.
The witch looks at Thyme, both their hands raised into the air over a complicated array of plants, tended carefully to grow into a circle, and says, sorry.
I am very upset, there is nothing about the Sides being burlesque dancers, I wanna see Roman in a sparkly outfit, and Patton having fun, and Logan just running this bitch, who can I pay to make this happen.
Y’all don’t UNDERSTAND, I want a full universe, I want Patton having silly fun because the dancing is nice and pretty, I want Roman looking good and knowing it and using it to his advantage, I want Virgil using dance as a way to cope with his anxiety, I WANT JANUS LYING ABOUT NOT BEING A BURLESQUE DANCER AND IT BEING HIS DARK SECRET, and I want Logan being fucking in charge of all of them because he truly runs this bitch better than everyone in his pencil skirt.
