I fucking love being AroAce!

I don't know what I'm trying to say here, but I'm glad I'm AroAce because I can fully focus on myself and my personal goals. I don't have to worry about getting into a shitty relationship with someone, messy breakups, STDS, pregnancy, etc. It prevents me from being teased or manipulated by people who use their looks to get what they want (and yes, people do that). I see both sexes equally because I equally don't have sexual/romantic attraction to either of them. Whenever I see anything about how draining relationships can be, it stresses me out, but then I remember it's completely optional and will never happen to me naturally. I get to be completely independent, and I cherish that :>

It took me a while to accept it and feel comfortable saying it out loud, but I really love it. I have so much brain space to dedicate to other things like hobbies and education (not that allos can't do this). I like seeing things through a purely aesthetic lens. Being allosexual seems exhausting and frustrating. I'd hate it if I woke up one day and was suddenly that orientation lmao

That being said, however, I always wonder how in the world people even have the time and the energy to date in the first place, so I‘m glad I don’t have to worry about that 😅

Garth Ennis must have the worst luck, because how is it possible that he got three major adaptations of his works, and yet all three adaptations inevitably ran into the same multi-season main protagonist writing issue?

I absolutely DON'T get this stupid double standards

Why exactly is it when Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Seth MacFarlane, Edmund McMillen, Garth Ennis, Ricky Gervais, and Dino Stamatopoulos (the guy who made Moral Orel) constantly shits on Christianity all the goddamn time, pretty much everyone gives them a pass, but when a queer woman like Vivziepop or JaidenAnimations makes an "edgy" joke about Christianity, everyone fucking loses their shit over it?

What autistic YouTubers that you know of?

Mine are Jaiden Animations (the ultimate AuDHD AroAce icon), Shgurr, The Mysterious Mr. Enter, That Creepy Reading, Cartoonshi, Gooseworx, MagicMush, and Nathaniel Bandy. I don't know if there's anyone else, though.

What are your headcanon voices for Deltarune characters?

If Alpharad's recent Deltarune streams have ever shown me anything, I feel like JaidenAnimations would absolutely be the perfect voice actress for Susie, bar none. Raisei's voice, on the other hand, would sound like either Nagito Komaeda from Danganronpa or any of Michael Kovach's characters, IMHO.

What's a cartoon that you like but you understand why other people don't?

I'll start first: Happy Tree Friends. This show had no continuity (especially when the characters keep coming back to life after their deaths in every episode), dialogue, or even character development, the Flash animation was crude, and there's almost zero story to speak of (barring the few instances of background lore like Flippy's backstory in the Operation: Tiger Bomb short) as its entire draw was "cute woodland animals being killed off in incredibly violent and bloody ways".

This was considered fresh and innovative (at the time) when it first aired during the 2000s, but pigeonholing itself into this sole gimmick is also what eventually led to its decline in the mid-2010s, as the repetitiveness and the shock value of its excessive gore gradually wore off, which was a big problem when that was the only thing the series had going for it.

And yes, I'm saying all of this as a HTF fan myself.

I fucking love the asexual flag and all of its variants

I don't know what else I could say here other than stating the obvious. As an AroAce person myself, I still think the asexual pride flag is one of the most beautiful in the queer community, and I can't imagine trying to replace it or change it in any way. No matter how you use them, the aesthetic is always beautiful: excellent colors, lots of flexibility with greyscale, a pop of purple, and the perfect colors for representation/symbolism. Overall, an all-around top-tier flag in my honest opinion.

Even overlooking the factual "why would you throw away brand recognition" arguments, I can't imagine ever developing an attachment to a different flag.
