馃毃SURPRISE IT'S LISTENER APPRECIATION WEEK馃毃
Good morning WIWS Nation, I'm excited to announce today is the launch of our second annual listener appreciation week!
"What is listener appreciation week?" you might ask. As a sign of my undying appreciation to the listeners of this podcast and members of the WIWS community, I like to do a surprise week once a year or so to flood you guys with TONS of extra content and other fun promotions during the week! I am so immensely grateful that you guys have enabled me to foster such a wonderful space for nosy gays that sometimes I just have to show you guys with a big bang! Here are some details you need to know!
First things first! I am opening up the Secret Sessions Discord to Ashley Avignone Patrons and up for the week! We have had to close it due to some trolling for the past six months and it's getting so big keeping it safely modded has become a bit of a concern. But we're going to open it to Ashley+ Patrons for the next week and let you guys get grandfathered into it before we close it for a while to keep the size of it under control. It *will* probably be opened up again sometime in the future but it may be only open to higher tiers to again keep the population under control and able to be safely modded. If you want to join it during this special open period simply link your Patreon account to Discord by following these directions.
Secondly HUGE FUCKING ANNOUNCEMENT! Not to bury the lead sorry I didn't want anyone to miss the discord announcement BUT ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND GABRIELLA ARE STARTING A PODCAST AND IT LAUNCHES TODAY! It's called Stay at Home Girlfriends and it's a podcast where you can listen in to get advice from your cool gay aunties! Episode 1 is up NOW and you can listen on Spotify! (More apps coming soon)
and follow our socials here:
Instagram
Tiktok
Tumblr
OK BUT FOR REAL THOUGH HERE'S THE AMAZING CONTENT SCHEDULE FOR THE WEEK!
Sunday, August 27th (LIVE NOW!) - Cara joins me on the Patreon for a State of the Gaylor Union. We catch up on all the latest Taylor news including some more convo about Karlie at the Eras Tour, the latest Toe gossip we've heard, and go through all the ships with a brief update on how we feel about them.
Monday, August 28th (LIVE NOW!) - Gabriella joins me on the main pod to go through my original Swiftgron master post! That's right! All this week and into the next couple weeks we'll be covering the best timeline of them all!
AND (LIVE NOW!) Gabriella also joins me on Patreon to do a juicy oversharing Q&A about our relationship!
Tuesday, August 29th - Torry from Ready to be Petty joins me on the Patreon to deep dive into the dark world of Jon & Kate Plus 8!
Wednesday, August 30th - Gabbie joins me again on the main pod to continue our trek through the Swiftgron Timeline!
Thursday, August 31st - Jenna from Date Card Pod joins me on Patreon to catch up on pop culture and check in and see how we're doing with our 2023 pop culture predictions and 2023 resolutions!
Friday, September 1st - Gabbie joins me again on the main pod for more Swiftgron Timeline goodness!
Saturday, September 2nd - Shannon from Fluently Forward joins me on Patreon to catch up on Taylor, Gaylor, and pop culture hot takes!
Sunday, September 3rd - The discord community will remain linked to the Patreon until midnight on this day!
I hope y'all are as excited as I am for THREE main pod episodes and FIVE Patreon episodes this week!!! And I genuinely, truly hope you guys feel the love from me! We have our ups and downs and nobody is perfect, certainly not me. But that doesn't stop me from being SO HUGELY AND IRREVOCABLY GRATEFUL, THANKFUL, AND APPRECIATIVE to all of you for being a part of this weird but amazing little Evidence Based Gossip community!
Remember! You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection. 馃挋

sorry to overshare and i know its probably tmi but damn i need to rant
so i just had the worst fucking gynecology visit like im in legit disbelief over this doctor. he was SO rude and absolutely tactless, if i had met this man in any other circumstance i wouldve jumped his ass fr. my dad has bullied me over literally everything my entire life so im not. upset or offended by his remarks (tho a normal person would) but i am baffled
but the kicker is. turns out i have PCOS and THIS MAN DIDNT EVEN MENTION IT DURING THE VISIT. like AT ALL. he just kept telling me im fine i just need to lose weight, the entire visit was him going. you need to lose weight, you need to lose weight, why do u think ur not losing weight, ur eating too much.
i had to read i have pcos from the fucking report file, he didnt tell me i have it in person, he didn't explain what it is just that "u have some small problems but theyll go away if u lose weight" LIKE WHAT?????
i didnt feel safe at all so i didnt even mention i have a gf and i am sexually active bc like. this is a man who BTW started insulting me and pretty much calling me stupid for using an app to keep track of my period. IMAGINE TELLING THIS MAN IM GAY. so i lied which i know i shouldnt have but i was rlly uncomfortable so i just said "i havent had relations with men" and he started making some WEIRD AND GROSS AND UNCOMFORTABLE comments like how i am """ready""" for a man. im. i cant fucking believe this

I thought, and am still confused about, whether I'm asexual, or generally what kind of sexual I am. Re-reading what I've wrote I feel like my sexuality is very fluid and changes through the years. TW, but I was sexually abused in childhood (had lots of therapy and I work on my ptsd and issues almost daily) and so my sexual life has been quite complicated. A few mental illnesses got in the way of me being comfortable enough to engage in sexual stuff when everyone else began doing so, but eventually I met someone and began having those experiences. There were times when I had sex because my partner wanted it (and I didn't because flashbacks and ptsd). Thankfully, that doesn't happen anymore and I've learned to talk about it, to say no, to talk about my decreased sexual interest. I'm like a dormant volcano! My depression lowered my libido. But, I recently began exercising regularly (and on meds for depression) and that has boosted my desires, but I'm still uncomfortable engaging in sexual activity with others. So, recently I have been masturbating a lot, on my own. I much prefer dealing with it on my own because 1) I know how to do it right, 2) I'm in control, on my own, and safe. But, I went through a very long time not finding people attractive, or finding them attractive but not wanting to have sex with them. Which felt like asexuality. But, when I do feel desires, I am pansexual. (Had a whole thing in my teen life of feeling ashamed for liking women bc my brother is gay.)
Reading fics has certainly helped me broaden my desires and discover new things about what I enjoy (thank u!).
I'm currently in a relationship and I love my partner. He is wonderful, supportive, understanding, really the best. He's the greatest person I've ever known and will ever know. And whilst he is handsome, funny, intelligent, and after 6 years still learning new things about him, I don't want to have sex with him. (We exclusively don't want to reproduce either.) He has accepted the fact that we don't have sex regularly at all. I do like it a lot more when we do, and it's usually very random and we are giddy idiots afterwards, but idk I think I'm just rambling here, communication is really important.
Explaining to someone you like and trust/are interested in that you aren't a very sexual being, and don't have strong sexual desires is the best advice I can give. It all depends on if you are aromantic etc. Aces deffo should have their own dating app/site bc it would make things so much easier to connect to others who understand.
For me, my sexuality is complex and confusing, and I think my trauma and mental illnesses will affect it for the rest of my life.
Remember that you are normal. I am normal. 馃挏
Sorry for oversharing. You make it v easy to share 馃槵
Who wants to develope a dating app for Aces with me?
I鈥檓 happy to have people over share. It means I鈥檓 being supportive the right way! 馃槈

18 year old Amity:聽*(sitting in a fancy restaurant with Luz)* So.., this is the first time I've ever gone on a date with a girl before.
18 year old Luz:聽*(laughs)* Well, last time I went on a date, I, uh... I've never actually been on a date before.
Amity:聽*(smiles)* Oof. Sounds rough.
Luz: *(shrugs)*聽Yeah, well, if I've learned anything in life, it's that you take the good with the bad. I'm just glad I could take聽you聽out tonight. You wouldn't believe it, but I've actually had this reservation for... a while?
Amity:聽Place seems pretty upscale. Don't tell me... four snail signs on Yelp?
Luz:聽Yep. And I budgeted for the menu. I have exactly enough for two drinks, two entrees, and either an appetizer or dessert.
Amity:聽Hey, don't sweat your bank account hun. I'm mad liquid.
Luz: *(blinks)* Seriously?
Amity:聽(laughs)聽No! When my parents kicked me out for being gay, I had sixteen hundred snails, a wand, and a gift card in my pockets!
Luz:聽*(eyes widen)* Oh my god!
Amity:聽*(cringes)* Oh, shit, was that oversharing?
Luz:聽No! I'm just..... sorry that happened to you.
Amity:聽*(smiles softly)* Hey, if it never did, I wouldn't have gotten to be with you. *(smirks)* So, you know... good with the bad.
The waiter, Samuel, walks up to them.
Samuel:聽Good evening. I'm Samuel, and I'll be your server for tonight.聽*(puts a menu on the table)*聽Here's the drink menu, and let me start you off with some water. Sparkling or still?
Amity:聽I'll take sparkling.
Luz:聽Ooh, sparkling. I'll take--
Samuel:聽*(ignores her)*聽Wonderful! I'll be back soon. In the meantime, definitely take a look at those appetizers. I suggest the clams. *(gives Amity a flirty look)* They go down smooth.聽*(walk away)*
Luz:聽*(shrugs)* I was never into clams myself.
Amity:聽You definitely don't seem like a shellfish person.
Luz: *(blinks)*聽...Was that a聽pun?!
Amity: *(chuckles)*聽No, you're right, you do look like a shrimp.
Luz: *(laughs and hides her face in her hands)*聽Oh my god!
Amity:聽Sorry, but it was right there.
Luz:聽Honestly, I was not expecting this sense of humor!
Amity:聽Why, 'cause I'm a witch?
Luz:聽*(smirks)* No, because when it comes to jokes, you're a little green!
Amity: *(laughs)* OH! Zing!
Luz: *(wipes a tear of laughter from her eye)* Though I will admit, being a witch played a part in it.
Amity: *(smirks)* Well then, how about when we get back to the owl shack, I'll cast a spell on you?
Luz: *(blushes)* That is......oddly exciting!
Amity:聽I thought about saying "Make you a love potion," but--
Luz:聽*(shakes her head)* Yeah, no.
Samuel returns.
Samuel:聽Hey, there. Have we had a chance to look at the menu?
Luz:聽Oh, maybe we should do dessert over apps. 'cause this white chocolate souffle sounds amazing! It says-
Samuel:聽*(leans over to Amity as Luz continues reading the menu)* You know, we actually have a special today: tornado rossini on dried fruit brioche with Madero wine sauce,聽*(flips out a piece of paper, which he puts in front of Amity)*聽and my number.
Amity looks at him with a smirk and raised eyebrow.
Luz:聽--and we already have white chocolate, and it's called "vanilla"!聽*(lowers the menu and sees what's going on)*聽Um... something happening--?
Amity:聽Just a sec.聽*(to Samuel)* So, you serious?
Samuel:聽Dead serious. I get off at ten, and then I can get聽you聽off at 10:30.
Luz:聽*(confused)* What is he--?
Amity:聽*(stands up)*聽Alright, Sammy, three things. First, you wouldn't make it past 10:05. Second, you wouldn't聽live聽past 10:06. Third, we're still waiting on our waters. So if you value your job and/or life, you're gonna take this knife,聽*(picks up a knife and holds it to Samuel's throat)* cut the bullshit, and get us our goddamn Pallegrino!
Luz:聽*(wide eyed)* Holy sh--
Samuel:聽*(pulls back in fear)*聽Okay, fine! Could have just said "no." *(mutters as he walks away)* God, don't need to be a bitch about it.
Luz:聽*(gasps)* Excuse you? *(stands up)* I'm going to give you聽five seconds聽to apologize for what you just said.
Samuel:聽*(smirks as he sees her round ear)* Or what, human? You gonna call your mommy on me?
Luz swiftly places a glyph onto the table, burning it to cinders instantly.
Luz:聽*(calmly)* Apologize.
Samuel:聽*(stammers in fear)* I'm so sorry! I'm so, so sorry! Please don't hurt me!
Luz:聽Oh, um...聽*(hands Samuel a bag of snails as she leaves)* For the table.
Amity:聽And here's your 20% dickhead!聽*(throws her gift card at Samuel)*
Samuel:聽*(weakly)*聽This is expired.
Luz:聽*(places her jacket on Amity's shoulders as they walk down the street)* I am so sorry for that.
Amity:聽Don't apologize for him, or at all. *(bumps Luz's shoulder gently)* That was amazing.聽
Luz:聽Well, I couldn't just let him talk to you like that. *(smirks)* You know, there's a burger place not even a mile away from here. Cheap. Friendly.
Amity:聽*(sighs happily)* Titan on a sesame bun, I could go full Blair Witch on a cheeseburger right now!聽Let's do it.
Luz:聽Oh wait, crap! I just gave all my money away for that table.
Amity:聽Don't worry. *(kisses Luz on the cheek)* My treat.

Weird questions: 20, 45, 62 ?
20: preferred place to write
for practical purposes, i use google docs for writing. since i won't need to copy everything out if i want to post. but i use the phone notes app a lot too! that helps my creativity flow~~
45: which genre: sci-fi, fantasy, or superhero
fantasy!!!!! because magical elements are all i need to be completely invested in a universe! but superhero movies definitely come close enough.
62: seven characters you relate to?
OH THIS here we go!
1) jiang cheng (mdzs): everything about jc as a younger sibling, all the issues he has about proving himself, the bitterness he has felt. ALL OF THAT FEELS SO PERSONAL (even though my life isn't even a quarter as sad, thank goodness)
2) mu qing (tgcf): admiring someone with envy, bottling those feelings up, telling yourself they never thought of you as important, and then, leaving them alone.
telling yourself it's for you, because you're choosing for yourself and breaking away from being their shadow. BUT YOU MISS THEM SO MUCH AND IT HURTS
ok but i'd react the way he did too, if my feelings ever went that deep. but still, his entire struggle is very personal to me.
3) kim hana (a-teen)
she!!! this show has two seasons and i have such a hard time rewatching the first season because i feel so stressed for her. and just, kim hana feels like a reflection, and knowing her has made me realise so much about myself and my dreams.
seeing her happy gives me hope for myself.
4) hannah lee from 'everything i never told you' by celeste ng
not going to lie, this might be the only book that has made me THIS emotional. and everything about hana, being young and quiet and sometimes overlooked. and craving love and attention.
yeah, there's some or the other really wounded part of me that feels so much.
5) nico di angelo
he!!!! nico was the first proper gay rep i got as a kid and i read the book in the same year i had begun to question my sexuality.
and seeing him come out, get accepted, and also find happiness and support and also romantic love? YEAH that was such an important part of my childhood.
6) aristotle mendoza from 'aristotle and dante discover the secrets of the universe' by benjamin alire saenez
my friend made me read this book, and in the first read, i felt very strongly but didn't relate to any of the characters. BUT i reread this book, when i was in a lonely and unmotivated space the start of this year and!
his character, the things he said and the things he thought, they really resonated with me.
7) syd from i am not okay with this
i watched this at the start of quarantine when i was so ANGRY and VOLATILE and god she made me feel so seen. it's been really long since i've watched this show and i desperately want to again, but syd!!!!
ok it's oversharing hours in the last question, i'm so sorry! BUT nfvwjfbeh

*whispers* I am so sorry if this is out of line, but what happened with the crush anon? I've never heard of anyone dating a crush anon.
oh it鈥檚 okay, I don鈥檛 mind! I鈥檓 going to put this under a read more since I rambled a lot.
I think people on tumblr used to be more interactive with each other, message each other more, ask questions, etc. Which is really sad it鈥檚 not as common anymore because I鈥檝e met some really good friends on here. But I also know so many people who鈥檝e stopped using their tumblrs all together. I miss those ~community~ ~fandom~ days.聽
Anyways, to answer you question, someone anoned me back in like 2013 saying that I was cute and that they liked me. And eventually they came off anon, and it was someone that I was mutuals with but didn鈥檛 talk to very much before. She lived about 4 hours from me, and after talking for a few weeks and meeting up in person, we started dating.聽
She was really nice and we had a Lot in common and really understood each other. She was my first girlfriend and this was only about a year or so after I came to terms with liking girls. And I think a very common experience with wlw who are first figuring out dating is that you meet girls who you are compatible with, but it鈥檚 really hard to distinguish between Friend Compatibility and Relationship Compatibility. I really cared for her, but I don鈥檛 think either of us were really interested in being intimate with each other. Our few kisses were really awkward and most of our relationship was more friendship-y.聽The other hard part about it was that she was very much not stable with her mental health. Honestly, I was still maturing a lot with my mental health, but hers was on a very rocky unstable surface. So in the end, I broke up with her because she just didn鈥檛 seem to understand and control her anxiety enough to be in a healthy relationship. But also, I don鈥檛 think I could of ever felt that intimate passion feeling for her, ya know? It stuck because looking back on it, I think we would have made really good supportive friends.聽
And while I鈥檓 here oversharing, I still haven鈥檛 really figured out the dating girls thing. I will meet girls on dating apps who are For Sure into girls, but we just don鈥檛 have any Attraction to each other. On paper, we will have a lot in common but in person its like bleh. But in person, I will meet girls who I deeply feel attracted to and I feel like ahhhhhhh yes im gay. But then they鈥檙e probably straight or I could never ask them out because then they would feel awk about it. It sucks. I don鈥檛 want to date any longer and I just want to find the right person, but it I think every star in the universe would have to align for that to ever happen.
