i'm listening to rowan ellis's "the unbearable loneliness of aromanticism" and it's all very familiar to my lived experience

i like that bsky more of an intimate art community type of feel due to the lack of numbers, but also it feels lonely when i'm the only one in the rarepair tags.. on twitter there's a better chance of finding those three people who ship the same rarepair ykwim

I'm not buying this even if i had the money bc where would i put it!! I have bags of rice in my pantry that weigh less than her PLEASE 😭

they had like ONE drunken one-off early on and then they never addressed it for years, is the vibe I am getting. and Cynthia knows what is up and they triangulate the communication like little school girls. she is like damn y'all need to stop putting me in the middle of this.

ah yes ofc it was arakita, the fandom bicycle of the bicycle manga.. also fhfhfsd midousuji was the other fandom bicycle but he was giving more ghost type pokemon. manic goth clown vibes

omg pedal was my main fixation back in 2014!! can i ask what ship(s) you read for those doujins?? I fell hard into the arakita and fukutomi (and also arakita and kinjo bc they link up in college?? or something??) and also midousuji ofc ofc

my friends (2) are really into the two big pairings of the series so I got the secondhand lore from them and i'm willing to dive into the sexy doujins. but i'm not strong enough to start another multi-season sports anime where I can only differentiate them by hair color 😭
