I just love this! I’m used to Japanese studios’ artists’ dōjinshis, SO this “fanzine” by Crewniverse caught me by surprise. Delighted to see and hope for more by american tv series.
Yo tumblr you might wanna work on that “recommended posts” thing that pops up when you reblog something so it doesn’t pop up a bunch of cartoon dicks when you reblog g-rated fanart.
So, I just came across this thread on AVEN where someone listed a bunch of potential dating/friend-finding sites that Aces could find useful. I’m posting the list here for all of you who may want to check them out. Keep in mind that I have not road-tested all of these yet.
Acebook – Formerly (?) A-Date; is a free dating site for asexuals, including integrated forums and chat software. .
Affectionate Friends is “a different kind of dating site”, made for people (not necessarily asexuals) who want to share time and affection without worrying about sex or commitment.
Asexual Palsis an informal introduction service that brings together asexual and celibate people for romantic and platonic relationships.
Asexualitic describes itself as “the first free dating site for asexual people”, although technically it was released after the creation of A-Date, which is also free.
Celibate Passions is a dating and networking site for celibate people looking for platonic relationships. It comes with chat, message boards, and email.
Platonic Partners is a website celebrating celibate, platonic relationships, and allowing users to meet other like-minded people without the stresses of having to sexually perform. They are asexual-friendly and come with health resources and a newsletter.
There was a review of dating sites done by apatheticasexual, for those who are interested.
Ace of Hearts: Alloromantic Asexual – experiences romantic attraction regularly toward one or more genders. This includes orientations such as heteroromantic, homoromantic, biromantic, polyromantic, and panromantic.
Ace of Spades: Aromantic Asexual – does not experience romantic attraction toward any gender.
Ace of Diamonds: Demiromantic/Demisexual & Grey-aromantic/Grey-Asexual– Experiences romantic and/or sexual attraction only if a strong emotional bond is established. OR Experiences romantic/sexual attraction rarely, not strongly enough to act on, only under specific circumstances, or fluctuates between periods of experiencing attraction and not experiencing it.
Ace of Clubs: Questioning/Unsure of Orientation – Aware they fall on the aromantic and/or asexual spectrum, but not sure where.
Seriously, this awesome comic about poverty and geek culture is heart-breaking. I have been poor, very poor, and the damage it can do to your self-worth is immense. This wonderful comic by @kivabay really shows that.
