I finally started watching #SPYxFamily. I have to say, it's really scratching my itch for #ace rep, whether intended or not. Also, I really connect with Anya. When I was young being #neurodivergent and struggling with #queer and #trans feelings I felt I had to hide to not lose anybody, it really maps on well to her telepathy as portrayed in the #anime.
En mi sindicato hacemos un fanzine que, hasta ahora, era mensual (a partir de ahora no sé si va a seguir siéndolo).
En el de este mes yo quería escribir sobre la asexualidad, pero no me veo capaz porque aún no me he recuperado del 1 de mayo. De todas maneras, quiero lanzar unas preguntas al fediverso:
Gente asexual
¿Qué hubieseis agradecido saber o que «se supiera» para hacer las paces con vosotres mismes (o mejor aún, para no haber entrado nunca en esa guerra)?
Gente no-asexual
La misma pregunta, pero sin la parte de la guerra y con la parte de comprender a quienes tenéis alrededor.
Aphobia is bigotry against #asexual (#ace) or #aromantic (#aro) people (sometimes agender, too). And in the following posts I will do a little explainer.
(I won't talk about agender, because I'm not agender.)
"I am conducting a study to investigate whether adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) & domestic voilence/ intimate partner voilence makes men feel like they don't matter. With suicide being the biggest killer in men under 40, could this be a contributing factor? https://forms.gle/quJ9eBKJ1eAuU3Dz7 "
✨ Queeres Landleben mitgestalten, eine Chance in diese wichtige Aufgabe einzusteigen, hast du beim nächsten Rems-Queer-Kreis Orga Treffen am 29.04. von 18-20 Uhr in den Räumen der Arbeiterwohlfahrt Backnang (Aspacher Straße). Du brauchst keine Vorkenntnisse, es gibt jedes Mal ein Skill Share von anderen Leuten aus dem Orga Team um mit der Zeit alle regelmäßig anfallenden Aufgaben zu beherrschen. Dieses Mal beschäftigen wir uns mit Bildbeschreibungen. Das sind Texte, die zum Beispiel auf Social Media hinterlegt werden können, damit Blinde und Sehbehinderte wissen, was auf dem Beitrag abgebildet ist.
🏳️🌈 Der Rems-Queer-Kreis lebt von uns Queers, die sich selbst das Programm schaffen, das es sonst nicht geben würde. Wir laden alle queeren Jugendlichen mit Interesse an an unserem Angebot zum offenen Orga Treffen ein. Bring ein, was dir an Angeboten für queere Jugendliche fehlt, unterstütze uns bei der Planung unserer nächsten Treffen ein oder schnupper in unsere Social Media Arbeit herein.
👥 Wir freuen uns auf dich egal ob mit oder ohne Vorerfahrung!
For #InternationalAsexualityDay please, have this nice #Ace#axolotl with pride flag colours - I am not sure why they are #asexuality mascots, but saw lots of them last several years on forums and sites.
I hope fellow Aces here would like it :heart_ace:
The sad and short-lived story of a #racist homophobic troll on my #Pride Flags repository:
Act 1: The #troll tells me they want to #abuse all #gay people.
Act 2: Post gets deleted and the troll gets banned by #Codeberg#moderation before I even checked the repo.
The End.
That’s how it’s done. Don’t feed the trolls. I’d have deleted the post myself but #Codeberg was faster.
(How do I know the post existed? I got an e-mail notification before.)
But wait! There’s more! The troll assumed I’m #gay myself but as long-time followers of me all know, I’m actually #aromantic and #asexual (#aro-#ace), which is a HUGE difference. But since when do #homophobes care about such details, amirite? 🤡

PSA to everyone to not use brave browser @brave, the CEO of Brave Software is bigoted (donated to anti-lgbtqia+ organizations trying to ban gay marriage in the past and still has never addressed it or apologized) and was also against the Covid Lockdowns and is anti-vax. Using brave browser contributes to oppression of LGBTQIA+ ppl and contributes to brave software financially through ads and other means.
I recommend anyone still using brave browser to switch to ungoogled-chromium as a non-bigoted degoogled chromium-based browser alternative. @floccus is a good browser extension to use on ungoogled-chromium to sync your bookmarks.
Vu que c'est plus la Saint-Valentin, je propose à mes congénères #aro et #ace et #cyclistes des cartes de Saint Vélotain. Pour celleux qui ne veulent pas se faire choper

Amanda DeWitts Wren Martin Ruins it All. A fab (anti) Valentine's read! Wren is ace and, as class president, needs to help organize the Valentine's Day dance (which they loathe). A nice story about being ace and falling in love.
Anyways, in less angry and/or depressing news, my new #ace ring came in today!
This is good, because I never found the other half of one of my last set of ace rings (it broke while I was managing horses), and the black had basically completely worn off my other one so now it looks like a vaguely dark steel band.
Supposedly people who share my genital shape think about sex 19 times per day but I instead think about cybersecurity at minimum that many times and sex a total of zero, and, you know, it really works for me.
Only one in six asexuals have ‘universally positive experience’ of being out (www.thepinknews.com)
Only one in six asexual people have had a universally positive experience of being out, new research has shown.
