siobhan brier aguilar has an interesting video about this topic, and it ultimately culiminates in asking (paraphrasing) "when will you realize that what you think is missing in the publishing world is, well, you?" www.youtube.com/watch?v=rh9l...

if there is anything controversial about james gunn, know that i am oblivious to it and long to stay that way. what i do know is that his guardians of the galaxy was just trying very hard to be a farscape reboot, and i say, stop being a coward, james.

blah blah rebooting firefly. what really should be rebooted is farscape. james gunn it's time to abandon pointless projects like the superman revival and start crafting a real legacy.

the funny thing about trying to knit one of those olympic sweaters during the olympics is that the next olympics rolls around and you still have not finished the sweater from the last olympics yet. not speaking from experience or anything hahahahahaha!!!!!

finding the sapphic book community on here has been really fun because outside of bluesky my taste for sapphic books is counterculture but on here my taste is so fucking normie it appears

the best places on social media right now are hyperspecific bluesky feeds and tumblr communities. honorable mention to the most niche discord servers imaginable.

some of my faves read this year: reverence by milena mckay - ballerinas in 80s paris, really good balance of plot/stakes to romance in the roses of pieria by anna burke - fantasy, a little slow at the start but INCREDIBLEEEEE learning curves by rachel lacey - autumnal grumpy/sunshine

sabine @satincat.bsky.social · 29/12/2025

ok here's an experiment. how sociable is bluesky. if i ask the void for sapphic romance novel recommendations, will the void speak back? i want to hear from the people. tell me your fave. or your own! all recs appreciated so long as they'll blow my mind

using my substack to talk about my feelings about pluribus so far...i love messy gay women but what is this samstara.substack.com/p/pluribus-h...

pluribus has nothing to say about lesbian romance

belittled romance readers, men writing gay women, and the implications of lesbian grief in media

it's actually her account and i mooch and also she claims i ruin her recommendations but i struggle to believe that's true when the differences between her books and mine are so painstakingly obvious

it is sad that people move on so fast from halloween, you could look out your window today and see someone being bitten by frankenstein or someone being flung to pieces by a strong muscle witch or some other beautiful halloween moment and no one would even care to listen to you about what you saw.

there needs to be a psychological term for why every time I hear about this ballroom my brain autocorrects it to “bathroom” because I guess that just sounds more probable in this multimillion dollar idiot instance

social media algorithms bad but also i think to some degree they do reflect your character back to you. or that's what i choose to believe as 99% of the stuff recommended for me is either "cat in nature" or "cat near person playing a musical instrument"

what i'm finding (unscientifically) is that the solution to the problems that one's own agency can solve are like. get an mp3 player, read romance novels, and avoid internet drama like the plague. the rest, i fear, may be insurmountable.
