EA's closure of BioWare is transparently a vile move to shutter the studio that made by far their queerest titles. In the wake of this, I implore you: MAKE MORE QUEER ART. Make it trans. Make it horny. Make it scary. Make it loving. Make it with every inch of yourself. Flood the world with it!

(tw: blood) I really struggled to decide what to do with the background, but I decided to stick with the original. Hope you like 'em. <3 #bloodymary #rylandxsimon

Authors over on the other apps showing off their beautiful writing corners, and here I am on the couch in a nest of five blankets, hunched over my laptop like a shrimp, with at least three empty cups around me. 💻🦐☕

We need to be loud about the things we love. We need to be loud about our favorite books, movies, songs, art; we need to shout them from the rooftops. Because you know who’s always loud? People who hate things. In this algorithm that rewards negativity, let’s be loud enough to drown the hatred.

QUEER LITTLE MERMAID 🧜‍♀️A mer princess losing her magical voice & memories of her love 🧙‍♀️Her love, a Spellweaver making a deal with her god to bring the lost memories back, or die trying 👑A storm mage ready to kill the mer for his freedom ❤️Can love truly save it all? #PosterPit #A #F #LGBT #Q #R #FT

Roan, an arboreal mage, and Nev, a draconologist compete to restore a barren land. If Roan wins, she gets the cure to save her people. If Nev loses, she will be ostracized, losing everything she’s ever held dear. Only one can win. Falling in love might jeopardize it all. #PosterPit #W #F #R #LGBT

#DVparty meme day Skadi after making a deal with her god, becoming human, and infiltrating the castle as a guard to make Míra—the lover who’s forgotten her—fall in love with her again Succeed, and Míra’s memories return but bloodshed may follow Fail, and Skadi’s soul will belong to the god forever

All Míra the mer princess wants is to end the war that's been ravaging her country for years. Even if it means surrendering her magic, trading her fins for legs that bring only pain, and giving up the memories of her❤️Skadi, the mer’s Spellweaver But Skadi refuses to let her go. #DVparty #A #F #LGBT

#CRPFireflies #OneLineMC "Míra attempted a curtsy, which the handmaidens had tried to teach her the previous day. It was neither fluid nor graceful, but bowing her head hid the scowl on her face."

DAY 3: #𝗢𝗻𝗲𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗠𝗖 Good morning, Campers! Today, we focus on your MC. Share a line from your manuscript that tells us all we need to know about your MC's personality.

The Little Mermaid X Malice X A Taste of Gold and Iron "Malik was late, and for the first time in his life, Ren found himself hoping the mission would fail. Suffering King Henning’s wrath—and ending up on the gallows—would’ve been a better fate than having a mer as his queen." #1stLinePit #A #F #Q

There are two wolves inside me. One finally got a chance to talk about her special interest to a bunch of people and even gets paid for it. The other hates public speaking more than anything. I just can't win.

Welcome to AK's Unsolicited Advice. Today's advice: Love stuff. Love doing stuff, enjoying stuff others have done, and love them unreservedly. And if anyone barges in with some BS about how it's so cringe and bad to love stuff, BLOCK THEM and go back to the COOL STUFF YOU LOVE.

there's a brutal storm that sounds like plane turbines right next to my ears, lightning and thunder (very rare this far north, my 3rd time experiencing them in 10+years) but the cat doesn’t care. In fact, I suspect she’s the one who conjured the bad weather just so we'd stay home with her

I am glad everyone is having a good time with the explain your book plot badly game but I for one spend too much time figuring out how to explain my book plot well to let myself backslide like this on purpose

Can't believe that this draft is done!✨ I'd like to thank my espresso machine, a steady supply of pistachio ice cream, and Talisker for getting me through it. Extra special mention to @vcrarts.bsky.social without whom I'd have given up at least 285 times. ❤️

You are up to date.
