I'll start and yap about some of my favourite books
Angels Before Man by rafael nicolas Queer retelling of the fall of satan with the most beautiful prose you will ever read.
The Church of the Mountain of Flesh by Kyle Wakefield Trans man being weird and doing some fucked shit, and the prose?? so good
Providence Girls by Morgan Dante Sapphic seaside horror romance with, you guessed it, absolute stunning prose
If you haven't read them, you're definitely missing out! (Check the CW's before though)
I saw this back piece on Etsy, and couldn’t stop picturing her in it so I kinda threw one on her and added my own flare.
Hey. With everything going on, do you have any good, sweet, maybe slightly spooky books to help me focus on something else besides politics? Thank you
I've got you!

if you use kindle for the majority of your library, they will be shutting down the function that allows you to download your files and transfer them via USB on the 26th of February. Which doesn't sound like a huge deal, but this also means that if a book is taken off Amazon for any reason—like it being banned—they can scrape it off your kindle as well. So maybe backup your library?
Edit: as an indie author I feel like I should make a small note that this is not an excuse to say “fuck Amazon I’ll just pirate my books”. Please don’t do that. No one’s reaction so far has been that but I’m begging you not to react that way. That doesn’t hurt Amazon it hurts authors.
Some alternatives are
- check and see if the author sells their books on other marketplaces. Hint: any not enlisted on Ku are probably wide
- check your library. If they’re not at your library request them.
- if all else fails, reach out to the author. I have 100% hunted down a way for my book to be available to a reader that couldn’t access it for whatever reason. And I’d do it again.
Just for the love of 🧀 don’t pirate them.

additional info:
-> “why wasn’t this book listed?” probably because it wasn’t black sapphic-centric, the author isn’t a black sapphic themself, or i just simply haven’t heard of it! so feel free to add on if it meets those two criteria
many of these books require trigger warnings, especially some of the older ones that are more likely to feature racial struggles of the time. please do your due diligence and search for tws if you want to read them!
please feel free to add onto this list in the rbs or comments! happy black history month
On Friendship.
people are like "if you put crabs in a bucket they can't escape because they keep pulling each other back in, this is called crab bucket mentality and describes why people don't help each other" and never acknowledge that crabs do not naturally occur in buckets, a human with more power had to put them there

Artemis who doesn’t hunt animals anymore (humans do it enough) She now walks in clubs looking to hunt the real animal

Apollo who watches all street musicians hoping their talents can get them a little money (He gives more than a little)
Dionysus who watches over everyone’s drinks at the bar making sure they stay safe
Zeus who makes it rain for the couples that just want to frolic and dance and kiss in the rain
Hera who donates to woman’s and SA survivors shelters
Ares who is at the forefront of every protest because those are battles too

"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."
"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
