The Space Ace Diaries

@acesinspaces / acesinspaces.tumblr.com

I like writing, reading and science fiction/fantasy. I'm also 21 years old which means I'm probably too old for this online stuff. But that won't stop me screaming about all of the Asexual and Queer stuff I love. And space. I also love space. 

Okay I know everyone is shipping and demanding Thasmin but the 13th Doctor is aromantic asexual I don’t make the rules

I’m not Anti-Thasmin but I am so deeply invested in the idea of the Doctor being an Asexual that I can’t see it.  I like their friendship platonically like they both draw out the best in one-another but it’s really neat for me to have a female character I headcanon as Ace when so many of them are either male or non-human

Can i get a step by step on how to do this?

So far for me it’s been something like:

1. Become aware of how and when you tearing yourself down.

2. Now that you can catch yourself doing it. Offer counters to the negative self talk. A really useful thing I read was to talk to yourself almost the way you would child. Gentle and patient. Even when they fuck up.

3. Take time to celebrate your small accomplishments. You’ve been attacking yourself for every little mistake. Apply that same fervor to the positive things in your life. Did the dishes even though you didn’t want to? Fuck yeah! Got up and took shower? YES!!! You are taking positive steps to feeling better. Celebrate it.

4. Make lists of things you’re good at/ like about yourself. The first time I did this the only two things in my list we’re that I liked my hair and I had good friends. It was start.

5. Don’t beat yourself up if you screw up steps 1-4. It’s counter productive. When I catch myself calling my self stupid for some mistake or other my response now is,“We don’t talk to ourselves like that anymore. What’s something constructive that could actually help solve the problem.”

Most of the time that seems to work. Not always. But more and more Everytime.

I hope any of that made sense.

oh my goodness there are instructions!!

Omg I was doing this without knowing

Heavy denim "Starfleet" jackets

I love the clothes from Volante Design (“Superhuman Streetwear”); their latest is the “Starfleet 2364” line of men’s and women’s jackets inspired by Star Trek: The Next Generation uniforms.

The jackets are made of heavy denim and are basically extremely well-styled/tailored biker jackets (like Volante’s excellent Hacker jackets), partially or fully unzipping them and folding down their lapels takes them from “cosplay” to “cosplay adjacent” in an instant. They’ve got loads of interior and exterior pockets, and are double-stitched and come in “Command Red, Operations Gold, or Sciences Blue,” sized 37 - 51, 55 (men), and 33 - 45 (women). They’re made in Chicago, retail for $315, and will ship by December 14th.

I really fricking wish cosplay stuff like this was cheaper. Like fuck. How awesome

honestly I don’t even have words to describe what I felt watching the AHFOD film because THERE ARE NO FUCKING WORDS FOR THIS KIND OF FEELING. I just want to say that I really can’t stop loving this band, for nothing on this world. they brought me love, confidence, hope and faith through all these years and I’m so grateful for all of this.

what’s killing tumblr and the activity on this site isn’t the website attacking us, it’s the fact no one uses the reblog button anymore, the ratios of likes to reblogs is staggering and liking shit is nice but if we’re not gonna reblog it then what’s the point of even making content? what’s the point of even coming on here? if i just wanted to like shit i’d use pinterest. no tumblr isn’t perfect, no they have done things that seem fucked up on the surface (but totally legal underneath if you read the rules) but the fact no one supports each other’s content anymore is the reason this website is dying. and i say, that’s all our fault collectively not tumblrs.
