something that annoys me a lot in fanfiction as an aromantic is when people dont tag important platonic/familial relationships but tag random romantic stuff
i remember this fic in which there were platonic relationships that were almost as important as the main romantic ship, yet they werent tagged. but a romantic relationship that didnt even had a full scene was tagged.
there are millions of fics that do this. why only tagging romantic stuff? you have non romantic relationships in your fic that are just as important. tagging them would actually help the fic to get more readers (the ones looking for fics with gen relationships) but no, the romantic couple that had Ā¼ of chapter (of a multichapter fic) was a more relevant tag. wonder why

Question for the BJD Community
ā ļøThis gotten unnecessarily long so I will put the question and information under the cut to not take up a lot of the TL for people!ā ļø
I had this question for a while because Iāve recently been getting into BJDāsā¦ This might be hyper specific, for that I am sorry.
But, I recently been looking into dollās because Iād love to make some of my favorite characters, like Squares and Marle (both Puyo Puyo characters btw), but I donāt like the semi-realistic style most dolls have.
So, I was looking into anime-style ones and havenāt had much luck on that front eitherā¦
But, also some of the characters Iād like to make a doll for are children, like Squares, and they have no official merchandise so this is one of my only few options to have something for them.
I havenāt located any child dolls that I could customize to be Squaresā¦
I know the hobby is expensive, which is why I have only been lurking in the community and doing research ā I donāt have the money to make any purchases yet, but one day I will.
But, I need help on finding the right dolls to use for the characters I wanna make. But I can provide some help.
I need a child-like doll that can easily be held in the palm of someoneās hand, I donāt know the āsizeā the doll would be.
Iād need two taller dolls that are not children (with a flat chest, it needs to be feminine not masculine), that can hold the child doll easily. But other dolls can be larger than them.
Cutesy eyes that come in a pink-red (maroon?), gold, and indigo-blue.
Options for wigs, I donāt know what to do there. I need light yellow-green and dark blue in specific.
And finally, two last things I need help with.
I need help/tips on how to make outfits or source good, high quality clothing for the dolls I buy.
And tips on doing face-upās for my dolls, like what you guys recommend and all of that. I can do the face-ups myself since I can draw really well, so information about tools/equipment thatās recommended for face-ups can help as well.

A very close friend of mine commissioned me to draw a Squares con badge - I always enjoy drawing con badges for non-furry characters and think cosplayers should have one too ^^

good GOD I am so angry.
I, as my bio suggests, am a minor. I am also asexual. And feeling quite dysphoric about all the adults in my life telling me āI wouldnāt know until Iāve tried it.ā But thatās a different topic.
I needed a little boost for myself so I looked at the asexual tag here on tumblr, so Iād feel less alone.
There are always thirst traps and other things of that kind on any popular tag. But I saw so many, on the asexual tag, that I actually cried, ripping my skin off as I did so.
There will always be people that abuse the tag system, I know. Tagging your posts with trending tags to make them more likely to show up on peopleās dashes is a corporate tactic. But to see so many of these ads, I can barely call them posts, on the asexual tag, made me physically ill.
Asexuality is often overlooked by not just cishets but the LGBTQ+ community so often. To see that a safe space for positivity for such a overlooked community was being vandalised for the sake of marketing makes me so angry and so upset for myself and all the other people who fit under the umbrella of asexuality or aromantic who just want to feel like they belong.
Iām a relatively new blog, but I know how tumblr works. I know how the world works. The way the world is run means that we are all victims, and I thought that maybe society, that damned, twisted thing, could let us have a little corner to protect ourselves.
All it does is hurt. it hurts, and it hurts, and it hurts. Companies arenāt going to get new customers by ripping apart supposed safe spaces, and young asexual kids like myself arenāt going to get any validation or even feeling of home from seeing thirst traps targeted toward our community.
our community that is SPECIFICALLY DEFINED BY FEELING DIFFERENT OR NO SEXUAL ATTRACTION TO WHAT IS DEEMED āNORMALā.
itās targeted. I can tell. And I am by no means an expert, but this tag abuse is hurting everyone. And no one is doing a thing about it.
please boost this. Reblog, like, whatever. This is damaging people far more than you think, and it needs to be resolved.
thanks for hearing me
