Everyone please pre-order Benjanun says after 100 pre-orders I can come out of the yuri mines

Cover reveal! Elysium’s destruction looms; its greatest pilot Persephone is being eaten from within. She stands to become either a god—or a monster. Our mecha Greek myth retelling continues. More cannibalism, more lesbianism!

Itch: mariaying.itch.io/the-persepho...
Amz: www.amazon.com/dp/B0FGXHSNHN

A woman with long white hair covers one eye with her gloved hand; her other eye is glowing and red with a crosshair-shaped pupil; streaks of blood run down her face. She wears a black pilot’s suit with gold accents against a yellow and black background.

Book title: The Persephone Effect.

sexuality discourse in fandom is hardly pressing but the whole thing is really fucking difficult as a lesbian (especially when you consider that artists and writers have been harassed and doxxed for “getting it wrong”) who likes art and media.

Lesbian is the “bi-erasure” sexuality to fandomites

Part of the reason I wrote the Zeus Constant in the first place was how much I straight up did not believe Hades because she also says she doesn't have feelings for Persephone right before railing her in the cockpit like U CANT KEEP SHIT FROM ME

If you though Zeus/Hades or Apollo/Artemis were toxic... Ianthe is just a total freak.

What they don't tell you about The Locked Tomb series is that there is a beautiful twin and a scrunkly twin and they are sometimes at odds

there is no unified queer & trans community, there is only the active but unfinished struggle to build one

The Hades Calculus Audiobook - Chapter 9: Styx

It's finally time for Persephone to pilot Styx, but after an initial attempt to synchronize with the eidolon end in failure she realizes that this will be nothing like piloting the lesser mechs she had been training on.

it’s so weird how cis lesbians will talk about how much they love strap but the second someone else says they fuck with trans women suddenly they’re entirely anti-dick

For lesbian day, why not read dollfic by lesbians for lesbians? :)

Benjanun Sriduangkaew @benjanun.bsky.social · 23d

By the way, has everyone read our fun AU dollfic where Persephone 'hunts' down surprisingly eager women and turns them into obedient dolls who look like her? gunmetalolympus.wordpress.com/the-maw-of-s...

Just maybe don't read it if it's not for you, or learn to understand the genres, ecosystems, ideas, and differences inherent to lesbian art compared to other kinds of art.

Literary criticism has degraded a lot over the years due to social media and a lot of the review landscape can pretty much be boiled down to "I didn't like how this lesbian book had lesbians in it doing lesbian stuff"
