I am asexual. I made the discovery in April 2011, after years of thinking that I just wasn't any good at being straight. Also, I am a nerd. (Remember that, it might be important.) I run The Asexuality Archive and What Is Asexuality?, and wrote Asexuality: A Brief Introduction.

Flag forest test flight.

Oh look it's my house if we had nearly all the flags we'd need...

This was just a small test. I've already got about 7 more and I'm planning to get another 10 or so sometime soon. So there's a chance that all the flags you'd need are here.

Somehow "10 or so" turned into 17.

And speaking of pride flags.

There are a lot of pride flags.

I had this idea that I'd get a bunch of flags for a project. Quickly estimated the price and it was doable.

Then I realized that there are at least twice as many flags as I'd originally included in the figure. Not because I forgot a bunch, but because somehow I just didn't include them in the estimate.

I was just rooting around in my aro and ace swag collection because tomorrow is the first in person regular Seatle Aros & Aces meetup in four years and I needed to get the free swag bag back in order.

I was looking for some aromantic flags.

They were not in the first box of flags I looked in.

They were not in the second box of flags I looked in.

There was one in the third box of flags I looked in.

The rest were in the fourth box of flags I looked in.

I have a very large collection of aro and ace swag.

And it is very disorganized.

Pencils!

I keep seeing these pencils on my counter and I think they're PixyStix. But they're not and I'm disappointed.

The headline of this article sounds like a classic tale of amatonormativity, but when you actually read the article, the whole thing gives off strong aro vibes, kinda like:

What is this "love" thing, anyway? Does it have a flavor? I must apply science and data analysis to learn more.

Working on a game (that won't be released publicly) and there's a bug. I have to figure out why my anaconda don't want none, even though it was programmed to.

The Giant Anaconda doesn't seem interested.

If anyone was curious, it's because this programming language has weird quirks that I forgot about, wherein some actions are considered regular actions, while others are "life" actions. "Give" and "Feed" are considered "life" actions, so it didn't think I had told it what to do when the player gives the anaconda the buns.
