Yup.

Just a reminder.

If I could bottle his wit, I would. I am absolutely smitten by all the depth and philosophy to all these characters. Their obsession with youth annoys me a bit, I think that we should find and do the things that grow with us, that aren’t just passing fancies that one does in one’s youth and then you grow up and basically settle for some mundane mediocre thing (like marriage and children—because that is simply what one does). I think that love can be eternal as any moment, and that you are as old as you think you are, regardless of how many times your body has orbited the sun by being on this planet.

But then again, maybe this is my own youth showing through? Maybe I haven’t lived enough to understand what it is Lord Henry is saying about youth. I haven’t enough experience to have become a cynic. I’m a skeptic yes, but still a romantic, still hopeful for the future and think that all good things last forever in their own way …

More to come as I continue to read Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray …

LGBTQ Identities Part I - Sexual Identities

• Heterosexual: Sexual attraction towards those of a different gender.
• Homosexual: Sexual attraction towards those of the same gender.
• Bisexual: Sexual attraction towards two genders or gender the same or different to yours.
• Pansexual: Sexual attraction towards all genders.
• Polysexual: Sexual attraction towards multiple genders.
• Skoliosexual: Sexual attraction towards genderqueer or non-binary people.
• Androsexuality: Sexual attraction towards men or masculinity.
  *Depending on the person they may use Androphilia. I’ve heard both used for 
• Gynesexuality: Sexual attraction towards women or femininity.
  *Depending on the person that may use Gynophilia.  

So, I’m sure most of you are familiar with a similar post that included several icons that had an identity and then a simple definition underneath it. Unfortunately that post was severely problematic. It had exclusive and erasing wording and had several definitions wrong with it.

I decided to create my own with more inclusive language, less erasive language, and proper definitions. (Though definitions can vary from region to region.) These icons are not all of the LGBTQ identities out there.There are limitless identities, and these are just some of the sexual identities that I know of.

This is also not the only one of these I’ll be doing. I’ll be creating more sets. One of which will be for asexual/demisexual/grey-a identities and another will be for gender identities. Stay tuned.

I’m very open to corrections and suggestions as long as they’re not rude.

I asked PRISM if anyone knew the word for attraction to androgyny (this calls it “skoliosexual”) a few years ago and no one knew it.  Now I’m thrilled to know it has a word! Woo!

Gryphon/Griffin
True gryphons are the easiest to identify, having the head, wings, and forelimbs of a bird of prey; the body, tail, and hind limbs of a feline; and often ears that can be feline, equine, or eagle-owlish in nature, though can be seen without visible ears as well. The most common…

The following is an excerpt explaining what exactly a tulpa is. Of course, it’s from a Westerner’s point of view who took a pilgrimage to Tibet way back in the twenties, but their isn’t many other English explanations. D: The story may be a bit creepy for some people’s tastes, but offers a pretty…

Tonight I wanna slit my wrists
Hold the blood to God’s lips and say “taste this”
Tonight I could swear even the man in the moon
Is a rapist
And stars are nothing but scars
Bullet wounds from humanities drive
By firing at the face of the sky
Tonight crying would be too easy
It…
