do you know how many bones the human body has? its 206. we start with 369 when we’re babies but they fuse. wouldn’t you want to go back? have as many bones as a baby? what if i could help you
hi yeah what the actual, literal, GENUINE fuck does this mean
OK aside from the incomprehensible ridiculous combination of wordsin this original post, I must point out that it’s kind of funny/ironic that the OP’s name is gooeyshark, when sharks have absolutely no bones at all in their bodies, just cartilage… like no mr./mrs. shark I don’t think you’ll be able to help me find any bones bc you don’t even know how to GROW them… are you trying to lure me in so you can steal some of MY bones?
(yes I know this post/reply is just as ridiculous as the OP but I felt it needed to be said…)
You are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. That’s it. Aces aren’t LGBT.
I mean for one your forgetting a bit of that. Like the Q+.

The full acronym is LGBT.
I love me some ahistorical bullshit
The “full” acronym at one point was “GL”, after lesbians fought against male homosexuality being the “face” of the movement (i.e., the Alliance for Gay Artists (AGA), founded in 1982, was renamed the Alliance for Gay and Lesbian Artists shortly thereafter; and the Gay Activists Alliance never included “Lesbian” in their title).
The “full” acronym at another point was “LGB”, only after bisexual activists campaigned fiercely to be included, and is often still not even included in acronyms
The “full” acronym at yet another point was “LGBT”, only after trans activists campaigned fiercely to be included
Queer was added to the acronym after it was reclaimed and re-politicized by ACT UP off-shoot Queer Nation in the early 1990s. LGBTQ has been a thing since the 90s.
ONE Archives, which is the largest repository of LGBTQIA+ materials in the world and was founded by some of the principle members of the early (1950s-60s) homophile movement, which led to the gay rights movement post-Stonewall, uses the full acronym LGBTQ on their website and also freely uses the word “Queer” interchangeably.
As of 2014, NOW (National Organization for Women) agreed to switch to use of the full LGBTQIA acronym, and it likely isn’t the only large social rights organization to have done so
Many LGBTQ+ magazines use LGBTQ, including One(which has existed in some form since the 1950s) and The Advocate, use LGBTQ or LGBTQIA as the full acronym and regularly use “queer” as a phrase (and, in fact, some articles have welcomed asexual people and their narratives as part of the queer experience).
The acronym is constantly evolving. It’s not static. To claim otherwise is blatant ignorance. The modern-day LGBTQ+ community is a result of decades of political activism, social inclusion, and community outreach. It’s nota rigid structure that operates by a strict set of rules about who can and cannot join.
The full acronym is LGBT. Cishets don’t belong in the community. Aces aren’t inherently lgbt. We don’t want our oppressors in our community.
“we don’t want our oppressors in our community”
as if trans people don’t already have to deal with their oppressors (cis people) being in their community
as if LGBTQIA+ people of color don’t have to deal with LGBTQIA+ white people in the community
as if LBTQIA+ women don’t have to deal with GBTQIA+ men in the community
as if disabled LGBTQIA+ people don’t have to deal with able-bodied LGBTQIA+ people in the community
the LGBTQIA+ community is huge and consists of people with multiply-overlapping identities and privileges. we all (unless you’re a cis, able-bodied, wealthy, white gay man) have to deal with a member of our oppressing class in the LGBTQIA+ community
Even cis, able bodied, wealthy, white gay men occasionally have oppressors in the restricted lgbt community if straight trans people are included (although this is more rare; the only example of a homophobic trans person I can pull up is Caitlyn Jenner, my point is just that intersectionality means this is possible all along in a number of ways and accepting another dimension of intersectionality to the acronym isn’t anything new)
Reblogging for the historical smackdown.
and this fool is STILL going off in the notes about how “aces aren’t inherently lgbtpn no matter what you type on the internet lmao”
well by that logic, aces ARE inherently LGBTQIA+/MOGAI no matter what you type on the internet lmao :) and there’s really nothing you can do about it except cry about the cishets on your tumblr. like please
still no research or facts, just plugging one’s ears and repeating the same old, tired, INCORRECT notion that aces don’t belong in the community despite tons of evidence and research being presented. i think OP intended to go back and forth forever on this, but it’s pretty clear they’re not shit if all they can say is “well they’re not cuz I say so, SO THERE lalalala” in the face of well thought-out responses.
edit: my comments may be “bullshit” but at least i’m not a bigoted aphobe LOL. this may come as a huge surprise for some of you, but criteria for belonging in the LGBTQIA+/MOGAI community isn’t limited to “opposite” gender identity and sexual orientation??? gasp!! “opposite gender” LMAO okay you just keep on with your bad binary self and we’ll be over here supporting actual inclusion and intersectionality and not being terrific assholes about it.
I can’t believe there was a time in my life when I thought Vore just meant an extreme version of gore, like violent gore
I catch myself longing for the days when I had to sift through the filth that was on adultfanfiction.net so I could find any Wolfstar content. There were no tags, nothing, I just had to hope and pray I wouldn’t see my squicks. It was a war zone but it’s better than the fanfiction climate it is now.
Bless the poor people who run Ao3
I always sort of wonder when people say “big dick energy” do they mean both length and girth? Or just length?
A/N: Just a silly little post-ep for the season 13 finale.

Your Pain is Our Delight
“Thank you, by the way,” Deeks said, inclining his head towards Callen and Anna. He, Kensi, Rosa, Sam, and the soon-to-be-wedded couple were still sitting around the fire.
Fatima and Rountree were playing late night corn holes, while Kilbride had volunteered to take Arkady and Mr. Hanna home. Deeks could only imagine how that ride entailed. Especially since the last he’d seen, Arkady was serenading them all with a Russian version of “99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall”.
“You’re welcome, but you already thanked us for the party,” Callen replied. “Of course we wanted to celebrate the newest member of this insane family.”
“Yes, we do appreciate the party, but I was actually talking about you proposing to Anna.”
“Why are you thanking him for that?” Anna asked, tiling her head suspiciously. “Did you have some kind of pool going?”
“No, of course not!” Kensi said immediately, resting her hand on Deeks’ forearm. “We would never bet on something so serious.”
“Again, no, but someone would have gotten a massive payout if we did,” Deeks commented. “Now that you guys are engaged, my mom won’t have the time or energy to bombard us with helpful parenting advice and try to move in.”
“Oh yeah, you have no idea how upset Roberta was that she couldn’t make it tonight,” Kensi spoke up.
“I thought you liked your mom,” Rosa said, leaning over to look at Deeks. She now looked concerned and he quickly shook his head.
“My mother is delightful. She’s also completely and certifiably crazy when it comes to births, and barring a birth, adoption, engagements, and weddings. And the occasional funeral.”
“Oh, yeah she is,” Sam chortled, drinking some beer with a half grin. “I’ll never forget her hitting on me before your wedding.”
“Me either,” Deeks commented with his nose crinkled up with disgust. Then he turned to Rosa and smiled reassuringly. “See, crazy. But she’ll adore you and you’ll love her when she isn’t driving you absolutely insane.”
“Ok, but getting back to our engagement,” Anna interrupted. “What exactly do you mean? What did she do for yours?” Her eyes were widened slightly with concern and something that Deeks recognized as the fast approaching desire to elope.
“Nothing,” Callen assured, rolling his eyes at the rest of them. “They’re just messing with you.” Sam chuckled again, dimples showing.
“Sure we are. Anna, you’ve seen Deeks’ mom with your dad. Imagine that energy applied to wedding planning.” He gestured to Kensi and Deeks. “That woman loves to plan a party, and heaven help you if you don’t include her.”
“I hope you like dress shopping,” Deeks said with a wide grin. “Because I see lots of taffeta in your future.”
“Actually, Roberta has really good taste when it comes to dresses. Although she does tend towards mermaid or princess styles.” Kensi turned to Anna. “Do you have a preference?”
“Um…”
“Ok, that’s enough,” Callen said with closest to sharp his voice ever came. “Stop trying to scare us with your mother. She is not taking over our wedding because we will be getting married where none of you can find us.”
“Oh, you’ll never hear the end of that,” Deeks said, grinning.
“And Arkady would kill us,” Anna said with a resigned sigh. “He loves weddings.”
“And open bars,” Sam added in an undertone.
“To the happy couple!” Deeks toasted, lifting his drink high in the air. There was a chorus of renewed cheering as Callen glared at them all.
