The ‘Asexy’ Music Video Is Now Out! Well Done To Queer Sounds for Bringing This Song To Life, Their

day 23 - raphael santiago, shadowhunters happy pride month!

As a lesbian who used to identify as aro/ace, I just wanna say that I'm never going to stop supporting the aro/ace community. It was a big part of my personal journey and I really valued being part of a group that's so open to people exploring their identity. If you don't believe that aro/ace identities are valid and belong in the lgbt+ community, I don't want you on my blog

Random Round-Number Give-away! At the moment I unfortunately don’t have the means to actually send out gift-prizes, but a few people seemed interested in the idea of winning a custom fic. So that’s what you’re playing for – custom Sherlock fanfic! Yay?

How it Works:

You can enter the contest twice in total – one “like” and one reblog.

You must be following me.

After a week, I will use a random number generator and choose someone at random.

Winner and runner-ups will be contact, and they have three days to send me a prompt of their choice before I move on to the next person.I will write fic based on the prompt and post it – either on Tumblr or AO3.

Prizes: 1st – One fic of your prompting, 1000 or more words.  2nd – One fic of your prompting, 500 or more words. 3rd – One fic of your prompting, 250 or more words.

Please note: I have a habit of not actually being able to write short-fic, so you might end up with more.

What I Will/Won’t Write:

I’m currently only writing for the Sherlock fandom. 

My primary pairing is Sherlock/John.

I will not write Mycroft/Lestrade, or Moriarty/Moran.

I’m uncomfortable writing femslash/genderswap/explicit het. 

I’m mainly comfortable writing vanilla. (No BDSM or hard D/s, bestiality, omegaverse or hard kinks.)

I’m uncomfortable writing most kidfic (some exceptions – ask) or giving John and/or Sherlock (specifically) children.

I have a hard time with historical AUs or AUs that take the characters out of their environment. (I can give it a try – I just can’t guarantee quality.) Other AUs/magical realism-type stuff is fine.

If you have something specific in mind but are uncertain, please send me a signed-in ask.

START: Right now! WINNERS ANNOUNCED: Monday, July 22nd, 2013.

Coming out as LGB+ has nothing to do with sex, it’s ridiculous when straight people reply to someone coming out with something like “I don’t care what you do behind closed doors/in the bedroom” because all that does is contribute to the hypersexualization of LGB+ folks and the implication that being LGB+ is for adults only and it’s dirty and wrong and shameful. Being LGB+ isn’t NSFW and someone talking about the fact that they’re LGB+ or mentioning their partner is not taboo, it’s normal and it needs to be normalized.

Want a quality Starfleet uniform without the $200 price tag? Here’s your chance to get a great uniform for only $5!

Hey folks! I’ve decided that if I want to improve the quality of my uniforms, I need to get my hands on a serger. A serger is designed to finish the edges of cut fabric and prevent fraying, even through repeated wear and machine washing, which is something any good cosplay should be able to do! Unfortunately I’m already breaking bank (on Trek cons and fanseries, haha), so to help cover the cost, I’m raffling off a custom Starfleet uniform!

The Rules:

I’ll ship anywhere within or beyond the United States

You must be 18+ or live with someone 18+ who doesn’t mind you sharing your address (this is just a legality thing)

You do not have to be following either of my blogs, but if you like Star Trek and cats, you should check out my main @slightly-oblivvyous​

The raffle ends on July 2nd when I return from New York and the winner will be chosen by Random Number Generator

How to Enter:

To enter, donate at least $5 USD (currency converter) to my PayPal here (use this link if you don’t have PayPal). Put your tumblr url and preferred email address in the “Write a Note” field so I can contact you. (This is important!) Multiples of $5 count as multiple entries, so $9 only counts as one entry, but $10 counts as two. Reblogs don’t count as entries but are greatly appreciated.

Prize Tiers: The prize for the raffle depends on how many people participate. I must get at least 30 donations (or $150 total) for the raffle to go forward.

At 30+ entries, one winner will get a FREE* TOS uniform or TNG crop top

At 50+ entries, full jumpsuit-style uniforms (DS9/VOY, TNG) become available along with jacket-style tops

At 75+ entries, there will be two winners; the Grand Prize winner gets a uniform of their choice and the second place winner gets a TOS uniform 

If there are 100+ entries, I’ll offer two Grand Prizes and cry

The winner(s) will be chosen on July 2nd and will receive an email with a link to my commission form to pick out their uniform(s)!

*NOTE: If you want a rank above Ensign, you’ll have to pay for rank braid – I have to order it online and the higher ranks ain’t cheap. Sorry! (Still, even if you went for Captain, you’d be getting a hella rad uniform for $30. That’s not bad.) And if you’re outside the US, you’ll have to cover part of the shipping cost.

Even if you can’t afford to enter or aren’t in the market for a uniform, please help a fellow Trekkie out and signal boost! LLAP!

What is an asexual sex toy?

In a conversation recently, there was a question about what an asexual sex toy would be. Now, obviously, sex toys don’t have any kind of orientation limitations or requirements, so there’s no such thing.  But the question was more, what would an asexual sex toy be, if a company wanted to try to market sex toys to aces?

Feel free to treat this as a serious product design brainstorming session, or as a ridiculous exploration of what a company might think we want based on who they think we probably are.

Time for another giveaway!

There will be ONE prize: One custom quilt made by me for you! I’ll give you the fabric options; you’ll select the one you like, as well as over all design and I’ll make a quilt just for you!  Awesome right?

To enter you are allowed ONE REBLOG and ONE LIKE per day. Each note gets you one entry and I’ll use a random number generator to pick the winner. (I’m not responsible for any tumblr fuckary i.e. lost reblog’s or likes.)

You do not have to follow me to enter- however, when I select your name, if I see that you’re following me, you’ll get several more options in fabric and design of the quilt.

The giveaway will close on Saturday March 1st at 9PM PST. The winner will be tagged in a post and I’ll also send an ask, so be sure yours is open. The winner will have 24 hours to respond to the message. If I don’t receive a response within 24 hours, I will select another recipient.

Good luck!
