A proposed flag for Confidance:
A relationship in which people are committed companions, but without love.
They're not lovers, friends nor family, they're confidants.
Inspired by the concept of confidants in literature: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidant

I like both friendship and romance so it's hard to decide which one to pick when a relationship works no matter what.
When a dynamic works well both ways, what do you do to decide either to make it romantic or platonic?
I did my research but I can’t really see a difference since both promote a stateless and classless society:

On that note, what would anarcho-communism be? How would it differ from pure anarchism and pure communism?
The poor girl is the spoiled one, through compliments from her parents. Maybe she doesn't learn the lesson.

How could you make aliens or alternatively evolved/uplifted earthling species psychologically different from humans?
These are the resouces I managed to find:

I searched through a hundred sites but I can’t find any pdf, epub nor site where I can read The Aphorisms of Kherishdar by M.C.A. Hogarth.
Anything of Vae Victis by Sofya Kovalevskaya would be nice too, I can't find anything at all about this one.
Do you know any media with great creature designs? Aliens, supernatural beings, robots, anything? Humanoids that still look notably nonhuman count too.
I'm looking for inspiration to design my own alien species and write xenofictional cultures. Realism is amazing but I don't mind more fantasious examples, anything interesting is good inspiration.
The best example I know about is Prism Stalker, a sci-fi surreal comic book with lots of aliens, though the main ones are still humanoid.
How do you think aplatonicism could be represented? How do you think it could be written without just straight up saying the characters are aplatonic? How it could be show or hinted at?
Specifically fully aplaro characters, ones who will NOT get any friends nor partners in the story.
Both asocial and social ideas are welcome, one character is a loner and another one is a party animal who likes hanging out with others but doesn't want to get too close to them.
*On not straight up saying the characters are aplatonic: "Show don't tell" but also because the word aplatonic doesn't exist in this world, not even internet exists.
