I think Sophie Ellis-Bextor's "Crying at the Discotheque" has it, for me. Runner up: Anberlin's cover of New Order's "True Faith"

Queer romance IS resistance. It is radical to imagine happiness, and community, and joy, when people are trying to kill you, erase you, oppress you, or deny you the right to live a full life in so many ways.

blue background drawingo of a stack of books and baseball. text says "book recommendations based on who you're rooting for in the MLB postseason 2026"

blue background then baseball team logos in a line with lines protruding, the team in order are LA dodgers, atlanta braves, cleveland guardians, san diego padres, new york yankees, milwaukee brewers, chicago white sox, and tampa bay rays

7 of the 8 lines (all except the top line for the dodgers) point to the cover of the novel at your pace by hope engel

Xenon has scars all over from skirmishes with the city guard. He's not necessarily proud of them, but he prefers having them to bending the knee. He tells Krainos they were from work accidents so he doesn't suspect anything. Krainos chooses to believe him.

In Krainos's original design, he was a one-winged pegasus-satyr. The 2nd was lost while saving his lover from an abusive captor, so he became a no-winged pegasatyr. Probably would've caused an identity crisis, but the RP timeskipped after. lol Cool story, but I like anxious twink Krainos better. 🤣

If it works, that's pretty cool; I didn't think
would ever see this implemented (I also didn't
expect LLMs to exist).
However, this is not something you can PR
here, or anywhere. You sent me a nearly 50k
line diff, unasked for, completely LLM built, and
you somehow expect me to review it. There is
SO MUCH unrelated garbage here. Never
minding all of the docs and Python, you've
somehow touched basically all of the upstream
HDL, which already had MSU1 support, so idk
what in the world you're doing.
This kind of behavior is not acceptable. You are
infringing on the time and brainpower of people
by pushing "your" content that little/no of your
brainpower went into; completely unrequested.
I hope for the sake of all responsible
maintainers that you do not do such a thing
again.
Again, I think it's cool that you and your LLM
supposedly got this to work. It has no place in
my world.

about Neven being out in the desert alone for weeks with the big creatures that live out there. 4) Neven isn't sure that his bottom-sculpting will work, and that it won't have side effects. So he journals through it, for science! Did he trust Leona too quickly?

#LGBTQWriteAThon 6: Bugbears 1) Krainos is constantly worried that he's going to fail his employees. And Xenon keeps insinuating he could be dead next year? 😬 2) For Xenon, it's that the local lords will totally extract the merchants dry. He'll die before he lets that happen. 3) Leona is anxious…

If you have to go to states/districts where you won by 27 points to campaign, there's a problem.(I think it's to try to ensure The Biggest Crowds Ever and not because he's polling bad there. But he's polling SO bad everywhere else that campaigning in closer districts would make him look bad.)

Chapter 1

Day 7

The flesh at the base of the addition has begun to loosen from what I can only assume is the tissue below. I can stroke it as a separate layer, like I always could with my foreskin, and see blood vessels, my blood vessels, beginning to extend beyond where my body used to end. The clay near the tip continues turning pink overnight, and the urethra extending through it continues to be practical just as immediately.

No sensation at the tip as of yet. I suspect it would only happen once I stop adding length, which I'm not keen to do yet. Given that it has taken seven days for the base to loosen, I hypothesize that it would take as long for the finished—or paused, depending on how I feel about it—growth to fully integrate and vascularize. I hope it's ready when I return to Leona the city of Raine, where I anticipate testing my hypotheses with my trusted assistant.

#LGBTQWriteAThon 5: Goals! -Finish revising Cryzmis. This seems daunting, but I got through half last week! As long as I stay mostly happy with what's there, it shouldn't be a problem. The last 'glaring' gap only took a few hundred words to close anyway. Nice to have: -Outline 'Making Hiss-tory'

Had a thought about "straight-looking" queer relationships, & I know that while we can "stealth" it out here, we have to be visible in the queer community so 1) we don't lose touch with ourselves in the liminal tug between identity & society's default, & 2) that way the community can just be bigger.

If Rapuska is in Prince Mode, the keen look in his eye is enough to make Samiel want to jump him right there. …and then Rapuska licks his hand, very wetly, and puts it through his hair and Samiel has to try REALLY hard to not think about that being how his swept-back hair stays so swept back.

Almost done with chapter 2! I'm also tentatively splitting the first couple chapters into "Day" and "Night" halves to even out the word count a little bit. Into, like, 4.5k-max chunks. 👀 Advent-calendar-like, some might say...

A dysphoric trans man finds himself befriending the beast wreaking havoc on his village. Never has he felt respected, nor safe, before meeting it, and the dangerous line he crosses doesn't deter him. It allures him. Beautiful, But Deadly - A Queer Monster Romance gt-anthony.itch.io/beautiful-bu...

Against a dark forest floor background, there is a book cover at the center of the image, a logline pitch at the top, and eight listed tropes bordering the cover. The text throughout the image is written in a pale pink font.

The cover art is for the book "Beautiful, But Deadly - A Novella by G.T. Anthony," in which the cover depicts two hands (one human, the other a beast with dark grey-brown fur), both taking hold of an oleander flower.

Top Logline:
"When a dysphoric farmer trapped in a miserable marriage decides to help the beast terrorising his village instead of harming it, he finds safety in the arms of something he had been taught to fear."

Tropes to the left of the cover, top to bottom:
- Monster Fucker Awakening
- Transmasc MC
- Hug the Beast, get a free transition!
- Touch EITHER of them and Die.

Tropes to the right of the cover, top to bottom:
- Folktale Atmosphere
- Slow Burn
- Beastly/Fae LI
- The Beast STAYS a Beast!

Liberals really need to examine their hate of homeless people and realize that it comes from a fascist place. You cannot sit there and claim that black and trans and disabled lives matter and then blanket everyone who doesn't have money as being unworthy of support or help.

Even the consumer is just a mine. The production and supply chain are just machinery. And one person at the top to milk it for all it's worth. You can't feel gratitude to a workforce or indebted to a community if they aren't people.
