do you know how much horror and lewd art is made by ace people. I'll tell you how much. a lot
The fucking Hard Times had a joke about ace pride being indistinguishable form a Macy’s thanksgiving day parade because apparently ace folks only like nonthreatening characters, which was cool way for the writers to announce they knew zero ace people.
Fuck having the ace person relationship with sexuality discussion is gonna be a headache tho especially since a ton of people have decided axe folks are basically grown up children.

Watched the 1975 movie version of The Stepford Wives after reading the book and I'm low key not a fan of how it makes the "they're turning them into literal robots" angle kind of unambiguos, where you're never really quite sure what they're actually doing to them in the books

just saw a billionaire pack all his things in a bindle and start leaving new york city on foot. he turned and looked at me with tears in his eyes and said “maybe one day when this city is safe we’ll return” before walking away

- TWO CHAPTERS OF DOWNTEMPO
- Post one piece of non-comic art monthly (or at the very least bimonthly) cause my colour art repertoire is suffering
- Get involved in more community projects

While I appreciate the women writing threads about M/M romance, I would love it if y'all stopped describing these readers and authors as "women (and women-adjacent)". Nonbinary folks aren't woman-adjacent or woman-lite. It's a huge umbrella with a lot of variation. We are our own thing.
