Show Topic
Bears in the Future
The cubs gather together to talk about what another 30 to 40 years down the road might look like for the broader bear community. Will runs still exist? Are more animals coming into the menagerie? What about the ‘aging’ of the cubs in the year to come?
In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, it’s time for another Landscape of Relationships. Damon is away this week celebrating his birthday, but have no fear dear listeners – because Dr. Edward Angelini-Cooke has returned! From scripts to relationship values, the guys discuss determining what each of us wants and needs.
Show Topic
Landscape of Relationships: Relationship Anarchy
Landscape of Relationships is back with Dr. Angelini-Cooke to discuss the topic of Relationship Anarchy. Who doesn’t love disorder in their connections with others? Perhaps that isn’t what it means. Let’s learn together!
The term Relationship anarchist (also commonly called RA) was coined by Ardie Nordgren. Nordgren created the Instructional Manifesto for Relationship Anarchy in 2006. The Manifesto is a quick and easy read consisting of 9 principles of RA:
Love is abundant, and every relationship is unique
Love and respect instead of entitlement
Find your core set of relationship values
Heterosexism is rampant and out there, but don’t let fear lead you
Build for the lovely unexpected
Fake it til’ you make it
Trust is better
Change through communication
Customize your commitments
“Relationship anarchy is a way of approaching relationships that rejects any rules and expectations other than the ones the involved people agree on. This approach ‘encourages people to let their core values guide how they choose and craft their relationship commitments rather than relying on social norms to dictate what is right for you,” Dedeker Winston, co-host of the Multiamory podcast
Relationship Anarchists is different and distinctive from polyamory and consensual non-monogamy because while a majority of RA practitioners may be poly and/or CNM, you can be monogamous and still practice RA.
This is in line with our last LOR topic of amatonormativity. Many ace and aro individuals are using RA as a way to navigate their relationships and future relationships, because RA can apply to any and all types of relationships, not just romantic or sexual. There is no hierarchy.
In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, it’s Jeff’s Birthday (well almost).

Congrats to previous guest Paul Lanner on the success of this month’s HAH The Event.com!
From the HAH FB post on July 11, 2022: The amazing speech given by the Tommy Clancy, HAH haunter of the year. “I am honored to be the recipient of the Haunters Against Hate haunter of the year award. From a young age I have been very passionate about Halloween. Without my incredibly supportive parents it wouldn’t have been possible for me to get involved with the haunt industry. My family and I put on a home haunt every year starting when I was 8 years old. After a few seasons my Mom and I traveled to Columbus for the Midwest Haunters Convention. I walked into the convention center with the biggest smile on my face, I felt at home; I was surrounded with what I love. A few years back I met Paul and was instantly made to feel welcome and loved. I am so thankful to have met him, the incredibly kind man that he is. He asked me to be in volume one of the Haunters Against Hate books and I very excitedly accepted, with my home haunt character. Eventually I grew out of wanting to put on the home haunt, I wanted more. I am appreciative of Jenny Braverman for gracefully introducing my family to the Zombie Army Productions team. The next season I started scaring at HellsGate Haunted House. I’m very lucky and grateful to now be a part of the Zombie Army, the most loving and rowdy group I could ever ask for. Zombie Army has taught me to be proud of who I am, something easier said than done. I have always preached acceptance of everyone, but at the same time have struggled with acceptance of myself. I am currently recovering from Anorexia, a disease stemmed in hate and unacceptance. I didn’t even know if I would be able to attend this ceremony because I was away from home for 2 months due to my treatment program. I used attending Haunters Against Hate the event as motivation. I was struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel for so long, but that’s just what Haunters Against Hate is for me. That light at the end of the long fucking tunnel. I was able to muster all my might and get through it. I owe it to Paul and the love of my family. Thank you for this honor Paul and for the work you do for our community.”

Oan R. re: COL620: LTAF: It’s Autumn Time – Damon: – What do you prefer in your apple. Me: I prefer Gary. He’s the apple of my eye. Also Gary should get some cranberries and pecans, a nice pie crust and some flour and cinnamon for topping. Maybe throw some crystallized ginger in there too.
