The Ace Couple

Some brief and scrambled post-election thoughts, including a few predictions for what we might expect in the next few years.

Season 3 of Heartstopper finally gave us the AroAce rep we've been waiting for!

Governor Laura Kelly signed a proclamation officially recognizing Ace Week in the state of Kansas! That means that in 2024, for the first time, our state acknowledged both Ace Week and Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week...so what's next for local Aspec activism?

With lesser-known orientations, such as ours on the A-spectrums, we often curse the lack of representation in mainstream media or praise it when it does the bare minimum, when we SHOULD be looking at the Own Voices examples coming from talented creators within our own community who are always going to be ahead of the curve. Today we talk about Baker Thief which is all of that and more.

Despite Obergefell v. Hodges legalizing same-sex marriage in 2015, we still do not have marriage equality in this country. Notably, Disabled, Ace, Aro, and Black Americans do not have equal rights and benefits under our current marriage framework.

The new documentary 'Lover of Men' asks if America's favorite president was queer. WE ask if our hunger to queer historical figures and justify these views by carefully picking and choosing some social and historical details while discarding others is simply thrusting us into a new era of limited binary thinking.

Here we go again. A new round of discourse sprung up calling everyone who sees asexual representation in The Vampire Chronicles "stupid" because Anne Rice wanted to write gay vampire sex the whole time but couldn't because it was literally illegal...so naturally, we've been tagged in. Here's what the author has actually said.

We did it! We finally made it through more than 14 accursed hours. Here's the finale of what we found.

More horrors lie in store for us as we continue to analyze Project 2025...

Continuing on from last week, we're commenting on some of the highlights from Project 2025 training videos 3-9.
