Oh god, you're back! Celebration!

 

You vanished out of nowhere, LTK. Granted, I did not notice you were gone until yesterday, but welcome back!

bla bla bla ANOTHER DOODLE.

I think I need to do a full re-install on my laptop. CPU's been hitting 100% everytime a game runs more then 30minutes. (more specifically DotA and Minecraft)

It looks like something a duck would draw with its tongue.

Got a job offer at a chemical analytical plant. I'm calling them in a few hours to see where this offer is going. Yay might have a job again

I saw a care parked right in front of a "No parking, any time, both ways" sign, for the second day in a row.  It might have been the same one too.

Slash his tires, or key his door, or something.

It might be worth leaving a note detailing alternate parking arrangements if that bothers you. If it's there again and it really gets to you, you can probably take pictures and file a complaint with the court and/or police depending on how that works where you live.

 

It doesn't really bother me - I was just out running to get exercise.  It does look rather amusing though, and could be a nice ticket for the city.

I had no idea run the jewels was putting out new material anytime soon, day made~

I believe they've been working on a new project.  

Oct. 28. Hoping to use my radio connections to get on it early though.

Because reasons, multi-part post of all the things with questions.

1. I have RAM trouble, am lazy so clicky (to /r/buildapc thread).

2. How's a good way to tell your parents/other important people in your life you're basically not straight? (and/or a good time, place, etc) Lots of introspection lately and before and I've come to that conclusion, although also being 20 and not ever having had a romantic relationship is not helpful in that regard. Also am aware that asexuality is a thing. Also I really like labels so that's probably where part of this is coming from as I am lacking a label for myself in this regard and am less than thrilled about it.

3. Painting hoodies two days before you leave to go back to school is fun! Kind of. Been working on a simple cosplay of Wyldstyle from The Lego Movie, painting a hoodie to match hers and made a ridiculous hat.

Sounds that way.It's the same for me. U turns illegal except for very specific conditions like no vehicles a certain hundred yards away.

Do you identify yourself as gay/trans/sexual? as for coming out, when I did I only told a handful of supportive friends and told my parents when I was in a safe area and if there was a fallout, I had someone/somewhere to fall back on. Although I know they're still not supportive of me being gay, they don't hate or disown me for it either.

Don't get a label just for the sake of it :P

Next exam in about an hour. Yesterday i spent about 10 hours studying and preparing. Did 12 mock tests scoring pretty well. Lowest mark i got was 82 and highest was 98. Only 2 of the 12 were under 85. So i feel pretty positive. Let's hope all goes well.

Hey, something I can help with maybe! I'm definitely asexual, so I might have a inkling of what you're going through. I do feel the same way in regards to needing a label, going through high school without one was a struggle. Everything I'm posting from here on out is under the assumption that you think you're asexual spectrum, rather than some other part of the LGBTQIA+ community, because I only know about the A.

 

First things first, check out AVEN. You might have already found them, but I'm recommending it anyway because it can help you decide whether you're ace (asexual) or not. The FAQ is here, and is probably the best place to start.

 

Secondly, I'm going to go through aromantic, which is the same as asexual, but with romantic, rather than sexual, relationships. These are separate things, essentially - you can be both asexual and biromantic (no sex, romantic relationships with either gender), or aromantic and homosexual, or whatever combination works out. Just to clarify, this isn't "I haven't been in a romantic relationship," or even "I don't want to be in a romantic relationship," this is "I don't feel romantic attraction to anyone." Though, if the second definition is your thing and you need to explain that to someone, it's usually easier to just say aromantic, I can tell you from personal experience.

 

Those are just labels, since you said that was important to you. I strongly feel there's value in these labels, but in the end, they are just labels, and generalizing these experiences to be applicable to every person is extremely difficult, so keep that in mind. If you can't find a label that you feel fits you perfectly, then you might have to either not have one people recognize, or have one that's close but not perfect. It's tough in that regard.

 

As for "coming out," well... here's how I did it, and am doing it, and that's the best I can explain. The first time I came out as ace, I was at a party with some close friends, and for whatever reason, we got into a conversation where everyone who was there was asked what body part they were most attracted to (ass, pecs, clavicle). When it came to my turn, I was basically like, "I'm asexual, I don't have sexual attraction, I'm not attracted to people's bodies." In other words, I took an opportunity where being ace made a difference, and I used that to explain how I felt and what it meant. That's the easiest way, I think, as long as you're willing to field some conversation/questions about it. But, honestly, I think any experience coming out is going to come with questions asked, and it at least makes sense for ace, because it's a strange concept to most people.

 

I have not come out to my parents. I don't think I'm going to, because, quite frankly, it shouldn't really matter to them. They're not getting involved in my sexual life, thanks very much, and there's no situation they would without it being rude. What I have started doing, however, is to rebuke them when they complain about me not having a girlfriend. Into those conversations, and into everyday conversations too when appropriate, I'll drop small hints that I'm not interested in being in a relationship with anyone, of any gender. I don't know if this is the best approach, but I think it's the simplest way, especially for my homophobic father, because then he doesn't have to deal with his fear of having a son that's not straight (even if he's not gay either).

 

Honestly though, I think the best way to come out, no matter your sexuality, is to do so in the smallest, most casual way possible. Present your sexuality like the people you're talking to already know it. Unless you know the people you're coming out to are going to accept you and feel happy for you, it's much better to come out in a way that presents it as completely normal and unquestionable, because it is. If you pretend like they already know, then they have to admit that they didn't and that it matters to them. I guess, then, that the hope is that it isn't negative in their mind, and that they don't care so much to go through the social embarrassment of being ignorant. That's my thoughts on coming out, and kind of what has guided me in the situations where I felt the need to do so.

 

Don't get a label just for the sake of it :P

Eh, as an ace person, there's no real reason to have the label other than just for the sake of it. Honestly, I don't need a label to describe myself to other people. All my really close friends know I'm asexual and know what that means in the context of me, but it's not like asexual is something you can judge someone for. For other people, it really only matters if you're actively in a relationship with that other person, and you need to come to some middle ground of sexuality.

 

Where it matters, at least for me, is in my self-identification. Like, having a label (both ace and aromantic) has really helped me come to terms with feelings I've had for a long time. I don't think I ever would have found that comfort without deciding that I was going to be asexual, if that makes sense. I took the label both because it fit me, and just for the sake of having a label, and as a result I feel less strange about who I am in regards to relationships.

*sigh* no one set me up for this joke, but in case anyone was wondering, it was a "Fowl Lick."

Curious, have either of you had sex with either or both genders? Might be somewhere in the text, but I'm multitasking currently

Nope, not really a lot of interest to do so either (no romantic relationships of any kind here), although there definitely exists the want in certain situations (basically demi to a T) but those situations pretty much tend to be in relation to girls which is fine (ie homoromantic), just less than the easiest thing to deal with here in conservative land.

So does that mean you guys just have like zero sex drive? You never masturbate or anything?
