Asexual Representation: Greta Moreno in Generation
HBO's Genera+ion held so much promise for a sapphic, mixed-orientation allo-ace relationship.

J.K. Rowling (very predictably) Hates Asexual People
On International Asexuality Day, JK Rowling wished us a "Happy International Fake Oppression Day to everyone who wants complete strangers to know they don't fancy a shag". Large swaths of the internet were surprised and concluded that her bigotry is growing...but any Aces paying attention already predicted this would happen YEARS ago, because transphobia and acephobia go hand in hand.
