I read somewhere [I wish I could find the source] that #ADHD affects executive function that precludes the ability to see the end-result of a task. Not knowing this makes completing the simplest of tasks both nearly impossible and filled with anxiety. /1
This has been tumbling around in my brain for quite some time. Pair that with attending my younger brother's wedding got me asking the question whether or not this is why I don't really date and remain single at 36 years old. /2
Granted, #COVID19 is a huge factor right now but I usually go years between relationships and I ended my last one pre-pandemic. Part of me feels like there's no point; it seems nearly impossible to find someone around here who has any kind of energy and social consciousness. /3

When I conceived of what we'd do at the @hashtagopen booth @DykeDayLA, I wanted to show folx just how many choices you have and how many different people are in the #hashtagopen app community. People stopped by for some cold water, swag...1/6
And if they wanted to they could choose hashtag paddles and pose in front of our backdrop. Yes, it was lots of fun, but it was also a really moving experience for me. When people approached the table full of hashtag paddles, some snapped up one or more right away...2/6
...while others went through each and every one methodically. Some folx said "Oh my God! That's me!" when they found one (like #queerandasian #femmebottom #demisexual #hardfemme #homoflexible #latinxpride #QTPOC). 3/6
In between my comic about asexuality I'm doing little informational one pagers or ancedotal one pagers to break up chapters. I'll share four of them over the next #PrideMonth to spread some education about asexuality, since I've noticed a lot of well meaning ppl are confused!
