I’ve been debating on joining TransID.org’s discord server. I’ll keep that in mind.

Pretty much. I asked a mod and got 0 response, no invite link, nothing.

The problem comes along that I want to meet other Aroace people, yet other Aroace people are very toxic on the tumblr community, in my experience.

I’m not on rape.pet, though.

Yeah. I use TOR, but I’m just too paranoid about that shit. Some of them are a little too… Risky, y’know, won’t pass the dost test. Like again, nothing against the owner, I don’t think she lives in the USA, but… It’s not worth the risk to me.

Being entirely honest, and nothing against the owner there, but some of the things shared on cutiegarden make me really nervous. As subjective as the Dost Test is, a lot of content on there is very risky.

It might be good if you don’t live in the USA, but sadly, I do.

Kinda want to elaborate on this, especially the first part since I know some people will take it out of context but:

Teenagers distribute their own nudes consensually with their peers a lot and that’s very normal behavior. Teenagers will have sex with teenagers, and teenagers will send each other nudes, and that should not be criminalized. The fact that teenagers can end up in jail and on the registry for life for consensually trading nudes is horrifying and wrong. And tbh, people should not get in trouble for keeping their nudes as they grow. Imagine being put on the registry because you took pictures of yourself as a teenager and someone found them. That’s horrible.

As for my bit, that’s my personal experience as a survivor of some pretty horrific shit, and maybe it’s because I’ve grown numb to the idea or I’m programmed that way, I think that everyone should have a say in what happens to images or videos like that, and I wholly understand if people don’t want those materials viewed.

My whole thing is: Shrug.

I don’t think minors should be criminalized for taking nudes and/or distributing said nudes consensually.

I also don’t think people should be arrested for watching videos in their private environment.

Coming from a CSA and CSAM survivor myself, I really don’t care? I know every survivor is different, and maybe there should be some protection for those that don’t want their CSAM viewed, but I’m sure I’m not the only one who doesn’t care.

RQD2 has been a really great space for me, despite my inactivity. Even when I don’t make posts, it’s one of the first things I open up when I start my computer. It’s a place where I know I can be myself and not worry about being banned or even really harassed. I like how diverse everyone is, and even if no one agrees on contact stance, it’s not a primary focus here. It’s also been super accepting of my transIDs and a lot of people seem to understand a lot of my points, even if they don’t necessarily agree.

It’s just a nice little place and it’s comforting, even if I don’t make a lot of posts.

It’s just so hard to keep going with this… I get exhausted very easily with my CFS and constantly trying to rebuild things is very, very tiring. The worst part is that we may have to go to Onion domains just to be some semblance of safe, but that looks so suspicious half the time due to the stigma around the deep web (even though there are deep web forums that have no criminal activity). Rebuilding profiles and friend groups (if your friends move over) is difficult…

I don’t trust Mapsupport.De if they’re willing to host someone who is openly trying to dox people, as well as someone who is in cahoots with two MAPs that are all for doxing MAPs they don’t agree with, and have a way to obtain addresses to said people.

Minor.Cafe keeps denying my join request, but I might look into the other two.

I managed to make a Tummy.Town, but I know Rape.Pet has been around quite a while, though it looks like registration is closed, so I have no idea how I’d sign up for that instance in this case. NNIA.Space is… A bit restrictive for my liking, but it is one that’s been up quite a while, it looks like.

Woohoo! Plushophiles unite!

Definitely gonna try this!

I got Archive.Today working mostly, it saved the first few fine, and then none of them are saving properly… So definitely using this!

I can kind of understand. Weirdly, it’s the opposite for me! I was a very early bloomer in a lot of respects, and I wish I was more normal in that fact. I didn’t find out I was aro until… Less than a year ago! It feels so weird to go through years of being hyperrose and then… turn out to be aroace. It feels like a contradiction!

It’s just hard for me because I see a lot of exclusion towards more romance and love inclined aros. It makes me feel invalidated and like I’m not aro/aroace enough because it seems like the black and white “if you’re aro/aroace, you’re loveless. If you’re not loveless, you’re not aro/aroace” and it keeps pushing me away from the community… There’s so much romance bashing, at least that I see of…

Like no hate to loveless aros/aroaces at all, I should say!! It just feels like they’re the only ones that get attention and everyone else gets pushed out. We should be there for our Aro/Aroace sibs, you know? Regardless of if they like romance or not. But it’s so hard to find aros/aroaces like me…

If any of this makes sense.

Note: Using both aro and aroace because it’s in both communities a lot, aroace a little less so, but still a lot in both communities.

I am on Oddballs, actually! I’ve been trying to distance myself from Tumblr, recently.

The amount of music I’ve had recommended is so overwhelming, I love how much you guys have to recommend! Thank you guys, and even if I can’t listen to a lot of music that you guys have recommended, I hope others can! So lets keep it coming!!

Here’s a few Vocaloid songs that fit!

• I Can Take Off My Panties by Chom-P ft Kagamine Rin - AAM, Youth Lib
• Romeo and Cinderella by Doriko ft Hatsune Miku - AAM/MAP, Youth Lib
• Cantarella by Korousa-P ft Hatsune Miku and KAITO - AAM/MAP, Based off of an irl incestuous relationship
• The Wolf Fell in Love with Little Red Riding Hood by Hitoshizuku-P and Yama△ ft Kagamine Rin and Len - Forbidden Love (can be interpreted any way)

Absolutely. It’s so bad, it’s hard to even browse the Tumblr RQC because of all the discourse…
