This is so important. I wish we had more rep resentation of ace characters who aren’t aro, though, and vice versa. It seems like the very few times we get characters on either spectrum, it’s BOTH spectrums. It would really help with society’s lack of separation between romantic and sexual attraction.
isaac's storyline has always been a little secondary in heartstopper. it was a b-plot in season 2, and not even that in season one. but i was happy with it nonetheless y'know? because we have to start somewhere right? baby steps in the right direction.
but just now i'm sitting here and thinking, is this Really as much of a baby step as i feel? i learned the word aromantic from a throwaway sentence in a novel by a small time author, and within a few months i realised it was my identity. and here's this very popular netflix show and there's a secondary plot about a character realising he's aromantic and asexual and this is the first time i'm hearing the word aromantic on screen and how many teenagers are going to google aspec identities after watching that episode? how many people are going to stay up at night thinking about that artist saying that he never quite fit in, but then he realised what was going on and it was freedom? how many 10 year olds are going to have those words stuck in the back of their minds for years and then realise when they're older that those words describe them, and that doesn't mean they're broken, that they have a community that will understand what they're feeling?
aromantic. asexual. holy shit, this is a big step in the right direction.

i have a newfound respect and concern for chessex
it’ll never fail to amaze me that chessex, the game dice company - like if you bought your first dice set from a game store/comic shop/card shop you most certainly bought a chessex set - has such an ugly and poorly designed website. it looks like they went out of business 15 years ago.
pop up ads on pirating websites are so fucking funny. "do you want sex?" if I wanted to have sex do you really think I'd be watching doctor who. answer quickly
at what age do you accept that you and your digestive system are never gonna be friends again
