so how about a pokemon game where you play as a kid going into team rocket because his parents are high ranking rocketeers or whatever and you have to steal your starter and you slowly start to realize that team rocket is not cool so then you destroy them from the inside
that’d be a damn good game
and at the end of the game you have to decide whether or not to return your beloved starter to the person you stole it from
why would you say that

That’s part of the reason I never dated in high school, since I was (and am) sex-averse and society had given me the idea that dating had to lead to sex.
I didn’t either. Part of it was the serious disinterest in sex (though I naively thought maybe whoever it was would just like to hug me and hold hands and give me very thoughtful presents and watch subtitled movies with me), part of it was terror at anyone getting too close, and part of it was that everyone I confessed feelings to told me they preferred (and then went on to date) my skinny best friends.
So I just assumed I was hideously broken.
A guy was super super interested in me my first year of college and I may have poisoned the thing a little by thinking he had to be trying to play a joke on me because after highschool I was thoroughly convinced I was unloveable in every sense. Then I decided he was cool and could be a boyfriend but I was sooooo uncomfortable even being seen in public with him. He got to kiss me occasionally, but was obsessed with me and it freaked me out so I broke up with him. Not before he asked me if my refusal to do anything more than kiss was because of some past abuse though. I think everyone who isn’t super jazzed about sex eventually gets asked that.
And then I got a girlfriend and was significantly more comfortable. But it was still months before anything but kisses and handholding was a thing. And that did okay for several years but then depression and incompatible sexual shit happened and she just up and abandoned me one week and left me with no choice but to move back with my mother in the woods!
I knew I didn’t want to sleep with him, and didn’t. Her it took a long time because I had to really love her first. I can’t imagine jumping into bed with either of them immediately. Especially when it was all new territory. I wonder if ‘first kiss/instant sex’ is really as prevalent as various media makes it seem.
This is like, I’m not even asking for an asexual protagonist, though I’d love that a lot, I just really wish it ever felt, as I read or viewed, that the author felt like a kiss was good enough for now.
fucking hell it would be amazing to read a story in which a first kiss did not immediately turn into sex
(or ever, but I’ll take just not immediately and then not described ever, especially in people who have just discovered they may have been not totally on the mark about their prior orientations)
i read 30,000 words or some such and then you do that to me
This concept filled me with intense terror as a teenager, like one kiss was this tiny latch on an imposing flood gate and I should not even look at that latch unless I was prepared for the dawn of a new water world age. The first person who kissed me did not fully understand the depths of my terror and made it thoroughly unpleasant and I still feel my whole body sort of emotionally dry heave when I encounter first kiss -> express train to bedroom.
do not ever take a white girl’s iphone
this badass chick is sticking up for herself and youre really still gonna degrade her into the white girl stereotype

Please, please share this like wildfire.
My classmate, Susan Hess-Logeais, recently told me about the documentary she’s making called “Soar,” about two amazing young dancers, Kiera and Uriah. It’s incredible, and the young ladies featured in this are astounding, talented, dedicated and extremely important individuals.
Once I heard, I had to share it here. It’s the kind of thing that actually gets attention on tumblr when everybody else ignores it - ignores excellence in black girls, ignores disabled people, and lets them fall by the wayside. So I’m asking, please, please help these girls out, and if not, please reblog and share.From the “Soar” press release:
“If you’ve ever seen Portland sisters Kiera Brinkley and Uriah Boyd dance together, you know they share a bond that goes beyond sisterhood. 18 year-old Uriah grew up helping Kiera, age 20, adapt after a childhood illness resulted in the amputation of Kiera’s hands and legs just one month after Uriah was born.
“You really have to see them to believe it,” says filmmaker and dancer Susan Hess Logeais. “Kiera can move in ways that are incredibly powerful and graceful, and Uriah is an expressive and talented dancer on her own. But when you see the two of them dance together, you see everything: the struggle, the bond, the joy, the frustration, the mutual love. It’s truly overpowering to watch, and audiences respond pretty intensely.Hess Logeais is currently fundraising to help pay for the event and finish her film, which she hopes will be eye-opening and inspiring. “We want to change people’s ideas about what is possible,” she says. “For all of us, but especially for the millions of people living with alternate abilities, Kiera shows us what happens when you challenge your limitations. That’s a message I would love to share with as many people as possible.” To find out more about “Soar,” the film, and see some powerful footage of the sisters’ dance, visit the Soar Kickstarter campaign. Kiera, Uriah and Susan are hoping that the disabled community will join the “Soar” community and support their efforts.”
"Soar” has a crowdfunding project going, but it’s having trouble reaching its goal - and this is just too important to let slip. Please help. Signal boost, share, donate if you can, but DO NOT let Kiera and Uriah be forgotten.
