A subcultural and philosophical identity stance, originating from marginalized communities (especially aro/ace, neurodivergent, or otherwise "dehumanized" people), that actively embraces and aestheticizes the state of being seen as "void," "empty," or "non-human" by normative society. It rejects the demand to prove one's humanity or worth through conventional emotional, social, or biological frameworks. Instead, it cultivates a post-human, galactic, or abstract identity—identifying with cosmic void, ancient machines, enigmatic entities, or raw information. It's a rebellion through reclamation: "You call me a void? Good. I am the void, and it is magnificent."
Example: Someone constantly told their lack of romantic feeling makes them "cold" or "empty" might adopt Voidpunk. They don't try to perform warmth. Instead, they curate an aesthetic of star charts, glitch art, and cosmic horror, saying, "I am not a broken human; I am a sentient nebula. You require air; I require silence. Your label 'void' is my crown." It's not a psychological condition; it's a deliberate, proud subversion of dehumanization into a sovereign, non-human identity. Voidpunk Theory.

Get the Voidpunk Theory mug.An informal term used to describe a recurring pattern in which Eli, after discovering a video game he genuinely enjoys, becomes highly engaged with it to the point that it dominates his leisure time. During this period, he is unlikely to play alternative games and tends to decline invitations to switch until his interest naturally shifts.
Ever since Eli started Arc Raiders, he hasn’t touched anything else—The Eli Rust Theory is in full effect.
