like seriously nonas should i apologize to the guy i've been seeing bc i talked a lot about him with my sister?
i mean we've been dating for like 6 months but it's been pretty casual. still yeah i've talked to ppl about him, what his hobbies are etc. it wasn't like i was talking shit. but i can also see how that might blindside him?
and then part of me is kind of turned off bc seriously we've been dating for six months, what's wrong with a little familiarity on my sister's part
polyamorous, mentally ill, neurodiverse, quite likely mildly autistic, currently homeless and poor, etherist, white (Irish/Scottish/Italian/German ethnicity), USonian, queer, skinny, geeky trans woman with disabilities, a strong dislike of oppressive bullshit, a strong enjoyment of sci fi and fantasy, a penchant for eating spicy food, a love of sex and cuddles and the tendency to write about all those things
My dad is exactly the same. Extremely racist, homophobic, sexist, everything. If this is the only extent of his assholery (i.e. he isn't mentally or physically abusive) my advice is to accept it and ignore him every time he starts up. Avoid talking about it with him. Keep doing what you're doing and try to focus on his good qualities. He's a shit, but he's your dad.
do people fetishize asexuals: yes i think so! often in a weird purity exalting sort of way? sometimes it's sexual desire like fetishizing is most commonly understood to imply (like, "some asexuals do have sex and i'd know they were doing it FOR ME and it would be PURE"), and sometimes it's "oh man asexuals make the best friends i want one you are so lucky," which. still gross.
speaking of otherkin does anyone remember the girl who thought she was the digimon emperor? and then she got put on fandom wank and they got all "hdu make fun of her" because it's wrong to make fun of someone who thinks they are an anime character
sometimes i think that if my mom died, my life would be so much easier. i'm an only child trying to shoulder her caretaking with my dad, and it's too much. it's just too much. i'm still in my 20s. i shouldn't have to be dealing with this. she got sick, and it ruined my life. she ruined my life.
