Asexual people — how old where you when you found out you were ace?

I’m currently questioning whether I may be ace-spec, but I’m also still a young teen, and I don’t know if it’s alright to feel this way just yet.

fun fact i identified as asexual before i knew that that term/identity existed i suspected there was something ''wrong'' or deviant about me in middle school i started to actively think of myself as not experiencing normal sexual attraction at about 14 i kind of jokingly kind of not started calling myself asexual at 16 before i graduated hs i learned about the asexual community now im 25 still ace! but it's also fine if you change

Did you know that leeches were once used to predict storms? Well, a tornado warning just dropped and my squad is climbing

My dad is a meteorologist and he has never once warned me about an incoming storm. My leeches, however......

*urgently* Lads, the leechometre is at 12 bong, I repeat, 12 bong!

"tempest prognosticator" absolutely sounds like some kind of arcane device a wizard would have lying around in his workshop

It would also probably have leeches in it.

sorry I make this post frequently but apple really doesn't get enough hate

so if you don't like them it's fine. I know a lot of people who are really mean to picky eaters about their preferences, and it doesn't actually help.

However, some people only think they hate apples because they've only tried the horrible mealy Red "Delicious" variety. If that's the case, you might be surprised by how much you enjoy a tastier variety. Honeycrisp and Cosmic crisp are some of the most popular apples and they are really good.

https://applerankings.com/ is a great, and wittily written, trove of apple reviews and information and will help you find nice apples. It is focused on apples available in the US, and idk where you are. I really miss discovery apples, which don't seem to be a thing this side of the Atlantic.

They can be a little pricey though. Obviously I don't know your personal situation, but if that's an issue, there might be local programs that can help. I don't know where you live, but here in Seattle there's a program called Fresh Bucks that gives people $40/month to spend on fruit and vegetables at local farmers markets. There might be something like that near you. Or, if you just really wanna try a really nice apple and it's not accessible to you, dm me and I can PayPal you something. I just want everyone to have the chance to have a nice apple from time to time.

Anyway, like I said, if you just truly don't like any apples, you are 100% valid and you shouldn't force yourself to eat something you don't like. Body autonomy includes not having to eat foods you hate. But I'd hate for you to go through life not knowing how much you could enjoy a high-quality apple, just because you've only experienced the worst apples.
