Ah, it's the last day of #ASAW. Perhaps I should actually...like...do something for it?
Let's do a question thread.
#AroWeek #AromanticSpectrumAwarenessWeek
To all of you, This is the last day of this year's Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week. How was it for everyone? Did you learn something new? Did you have fun? For us, it was an insightful and fun experience! There is real value in witnessing different people's perspectives and experiences, and having a space to express our own was a pleasant, empowering experience. Heck, admin R said it was healing! While the finale of this week has arrived, the real work hasn't, and it doesn't quite end. Creating a supportive and safe space is not something that only takes a week, it takes time and effort from multiple people.
Continue to nurture the fire you have inside of you! It's a great source of warmth for yourself and the people around you, aromantic or not. Keep making your arospec works. Keep talking about the things you love. Keep speaking and listening. Last but not the least, keep being who you are. The world is much more colorful because you're here. What makes you different is enough. 'til the next one! Thank you for being a part of this project. ♡
Thank you for making this #ASAW special 💚
Besonders schön am Queersein sind Momente von Queer Joy. Dazu können bspw. das Gefühl bei Partner*in(nen) angekommen zu sein, das Empfinden von Geschlechtseuphorie oder Freude an Community zählen.
Am Ende der #ASAW möchte ich also zeigen, wie Queer Joy für aromantische Personen aussehen kann:

Happy!!! Day 7 of #ASAW!!!! 💚
Today is the last day of this amazing week. To end this series of projects with another bang, we welcome you to the big reveal of the AroBox! A message board full of everyone's thoughts and feelings they'd like to say to the world or loved ones.
We’re almost at the end of Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week. I hope you’ve all had a good one!
I’m going to cheekily use ASAW as an excuse to remind people I have aroace characters in my books. Please take a look.

Jiracu my green gryphon oc. His wings are seen spread out and brushing off closely to the viewer. She has her sharp beak opened and forest green crown feathers riled up almost like she is pouncing. He feathers are adorned by various jaguar rosette patterns. Behind him is a part of his wing with subtle aro flag colors fading out into the background.
🍃Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week!! #ASAW 🍃
Can't do something more for arospec week this year but I offer my gryphon Jiracu who was designed based on the aro colors

I was not actually upset at all when I learned she was taken, which should’ve told me something.
(…I’m not 100% sure there wasn’t a flicker of something at some point with 3 and / or 4, but I don’t even know… which, again, says something. In any case, I’m still #arospec.)

It’s hilarious how in retrospect, all my childhood and early teen “crushes” (as I used to label them) were literally just:
1. Liked the way his hair looked
2. Liked the way his hair looked
3. Only “liked him” bc he was vaguely connected to my hyperfixation at the (1/3)
Happy #ASAW day 6!!!
We asked different aros their thoughts and feelings about some of the issues we face. Creating space for other aros to express these is important. I mean, isn't that also why we're talking about how it feels to be us this aro week, so the world can have the chance to see us? 💚
Hi everyone! We decided to keep the arobox (yes I'm calling it that 😼) open for 12 more hours! Just in case anyone forgot to send theirs and whatnot.
#ASAW

a bit late to these again oop- #ASAW
A digital drawing of Mirabelle from In Stars and Time. Parts of her dress have been coloured in green to match the aromantic flag, and the white on her arms and bow have been shaded with light green too. She's smiling and holding up one side of her dress. The background is a ribbon of the aromantic flag, and random watercolour splotches in those colours.
Mirabelle from In Stars and Time for #AroAwarenessWeek!! 💚🤍🩶🖤
Please be aware of her :) she's lovely

I love the concept of Romantic love, but in practice? It's not for me.
So, now, on the downslide to 40, I'm finally starting to feel comfortable about who I am, what makes me tick, and how to navigate the world alone. Alone, but never lonely, and certainly not devoid of love.
Happy #asaw, y'all.
Guy with butterfly meme, he's labeled "me, a DemiRomantic" the butterfly, "my squish" and he is asking, "is this a crush?"
Happy Aromantic Awareness Week y'all! It's Wednesday Post time!! #ASAW
The aromantic spectrum is vast!
For many folks some feelings are confusing or difficult to label.
Luckily, some cool terms have come out to help disentangle some complexities
A fave one is "squish"!
A ~platonic~ based crush
Simeon Saint in his clown costume over an aromantic flag. The text to the side is as follows: What is love? Absolutely nothing. It's completely made up. Hope that helps. ^_^
happy aromantic awareness week, brought to you by your favorite fatalist, simeon saint #ASAW #aai2spoilers

#ASAW you can be aroallo, alloace, aroace, and every configuration in between. you can choose to be anything or nothing at all, but that's nobody's business except for YOU
I wanted to take a moment to wish a happy Aromatic Spectrum Awareness Week to every one. #ASAW
I know I openly talk about being Ace, but I actually identify with being AroAce. It's something that took me a long time to realize but I've been more comfortable with myself since I did
Happy Aromantic Week! Here’s one of my aroace horrors on @azejournal.bsky.social that’s Enchanted x Black Mirror: “I Won’t Say I’m in Love Cuz It’s True.” It’d mean a lot to me if you check it out!

Aro fan pet peeves bingo From left to right, top to bottom - feeling forced to amato to enjoy media - character arc trashed for romance - depth and intimacy only explored in romance - lack of non romantic media - "I see them as friends" "are you homophobic?" - ending with forced romance - struggling to find like minded fans - ambiguity in a ship means romantic - "aros don't like romantic media/ships" - *makes intimate art* "that's so romantic!" - non romantic story's fandom filled with romance - using "aros can still date" as a gotcha - overabundance of romantic fics - too many romantic cliches - aro hc getting shut down - aro character mislabeled as aroace or vice versa
Happy fourth day of #ASAW! 💚
Today we wanna know about the frustrations that come from being an aro fan, here's just some of them, but feel free to add your own!
CN Arofeindlichkeit
In der Aro Week #ASAW muss leider auch über Arofeindlichkeit gesprochen werden.
Das Konzept der Amatonormativität beschreibt die Annahme, dass sich jede*r eine romantischen Beziehung wünscht. Viele Aros fallen aus den sich daraus ergebenden Erwartungen raus.

AROMANTIC SPECTRUM QUESTIONS This is a small questionnaire to spread awareness and celebrate aromanticism this arospec week. (You can leave a question blank.) 1. How old were you when you realized you were arospec? 2. What made you realize your identity? 3. How did you feel when you realized your identity? 4. Do you use any microlabels? Where do you fall on the aromantic spectrum? 5. What are your biggest frustrations with being arospec? 6. What are your biggest joys about being arospec? 7. Any arospec OCs? 8. Any arospec HCs for your blorbos?
oihgh im doing the thing for the week :0 #ASAW
💚We are in the thick of #AromanticSpectrumAwarenessWeek, so sending big vibes to all the aro folks out there! In a world that focuses a lot of love and romance, being aro can be a confusing experience for some, so we wanted to share some common experiences 💚
