being 19 is like: im an adult. no im not. im cherishing the child inside me. the child inside me is rotting away. i have time. my trouble is i think i have time. i'm a procrastinator. i'm a multitasker. i'm so good at completing this mundane task. if i didn't have school i'd learn much more. wait i want to be in academia. wait i just want to create. i'm taking cornell notes. i'm smoking a pack a day. i'm becoming my dad. i'm putting a mask on. i'm my truest self. i burn the house i love. i don't spend enough time with my family. i won't ever look back. i keep on looking back.
holy shit ok i was on mobile ht enetire time but desktop is horrific
So within two days of each other, Fox News writes an article comparing aromanticism and asexuality to pedophilia, and then Matt Walsh releases a video saying asexuality is a mental illness and asexuals are tricking teenagers into having depression.

It’s a reminder, I guess, that they’re coming for all of us. The fash and the white supremacists will not make nice distinctions between the queers when they put us up against the wall. There is no gatekeeping, no label-policing, no purity-purging and no assimilation that any of us can do that will save us. They want us dead, and while they’ll start with whoever is most vulnerable at any given time, they’ll get around to all of us eventually.
Queer solidarity means all of us because the fash are coming for all of us.
ANYONE who is trying to divide our community is a fucking Fed. That includes other queers who like to argue about who is and isn’t “allowed” in our community.
Remember that the right person will never get tired of you even in the worst times
No, they will! But they'll work through it, or walk away for a bit (i'm talking minutes to hours) and then come back.
People can love you and still need to get away from you for a bit. And there is nothing toxic about that — it's good, in fact. It helps remind everyone involved that everyone has boundaries, and everyone needs time to themselves.
It's okay. Calm down before you talk about something that made you angry while your loved one is sick. Be sure of what made you mad so you can discuss it together.
Love isn't a one-way street, and it's something that takes work. Part of that work is knowing when you need to step away.
