Some Suggestions for Non-Sexual Dates

dearnonacepeople:

  • Shared-controller video gaming: each participant gets only partial control of the character (usually one person takes the left hand on a controller the other person takes the right hand)
  • If you’re in the area where one or both of you grew up, spend a day visiting places that were landmarks of your childhood
  • Tie-dye shirts together, but make your partner’s shirt
  • Carve a watermelon into a jack-o-lantern
  • Cook dinner together
  • Get a black cloth and cut small holes in it. Pin it over the light. Pretend you are astronauts/aliens/settlers on another planet.
  • Gaze at actual stars. Make up new constellations. Cuddle if you’re cold/a cuddler
  • Build a miniature town out of cardboard boxes. Become the mayors of Box Town
  • Do each other’s make up (or paint each other’s faces)

And one for long-distance:

  • Crochet or knit the squares of a granny square blanket. Sew them together the next time you see each other.

no but seriously imagine being a muggleborn wizard at hogwarts and then when you learn to conjure your patronus it turns out to be a pikachu

#and everyone’s like ‘ooooh what sort of magical creature is this’ #meanwhile the muggle borns are laughing their asses off going ‘PIKA! PIKA’ at you #not but srsly how come muggle borns don’t have a super secret club making inside jokes and snarking right back at elitist purebloods

#i fully support this #muggleborns writing with pencils and pens instead of stupid quills #using muggle slang to answer to insults #teaching their housemates about muggle culture and introducing them to tv shows and books and movies #you have no idea how much i want this #hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home

I mean as a person who’s had to integrate in a foreign culture (which is think is similar to how muggle borns would initially feel in the wizarding world) I know how you, despite wanting to become part of the community, seek out people like you by instinct. Tbh, all the European kids in my town would spend at least the first thirty minutes of any conversation with each other talking about how seriously no Communist is like a dirty word here and why don’t they have Kinder eggs in this fucking place is2g. So it makes sense to me that muggle borns would seek each other out and make inside jokes and dude the new Pokèmon came out bloody hell I’ll have to wait for summer to play it ugh and shit please tell me your mum sent you ballpoints again I seriously cannot deal with all this ink I keep staining everything.

Sorry I vomited words on here omg sorry I just realized

I am a fan of GSRM (Gender, Sexuality, and Romantic Minorities)

easy to remember, not too many letters, more encompassing, doesn’t have the same hierarchy that LGBT sort of has (where the LG takes priority over the BT, also then the other letters are often left off) (also romantic added in hellz yeah)

we should all use this term ya’ll

get involved

i agree

also kicks out those “A for Ally” people which I’m all for
