Usually, on Wednesdays, our schedules line up so we can take a big nap together, but today, on INTERNET LESBIAN DAY, my butch has another obligation & I’m napping all alone. Lesbophobic….

here’s my recycled post (you know I love waste reduction) for international lesbian day

It's Lesbian Visibility Week. Would you like to get into some unique, mostly free, sometimes erotic lesbian art and fiction hand-made for you by a japanese-american butchfemme lesbian?
#lesbianvisibilityweek #art

a cartoony digital drawing of me in a hard hat and high-visibility vest. the text says: it's lesbian visibility week!!

I’m katie Aki, a femme lesbian artist and writer. My work focuses on a non-dystopian post-apocalyptic, lesbian-centric society that is structured around the worship of the nblw married gods of life and death. I’m mixed-race sansei & a married butchfemme lesbian, both things strongly inform my work.

I’ve been working in the world of this work for nearly ten years now, so there is a ton of rich world- building, but tbh it’s still fun and approachable!

a collage of drawings of my various characters, a bunch of blue lesbians, some in color, some in black and white. The text says "here are the gods (they are married)." The Listening Lady is labeled with her name and her title (the god of life and sorrow) and an arrow pointing to her that says "lesbian". Johnny Knives is also labeled with their name and their title (god of death and justice). Below are drawings of Hero, Frances, and Nuisance. they're labeled "Here are some of their shrinemaidens and disciples (they're lesbians)"

a collage of my Pony Express drawings, some more finished than others. More blue lesbians in various situations, with more of a western vibe.

the text says: Most of my work for the last couple of years has been on am interactive lesbian serial western about an illiterate cowgirl mailman and a cannibal wolfgirl religious assassin. It’s a BIG story (already 350k words) full of the most pathetic lesbian loser content you can imagine. Classic lesbian yearning, yes, but also field surgery, mutually masturbation/pathetic jackoffs, gas leak psychic genius nun threesome, visions from gods, love triangles, and road trip vibes. It’s free to read on my patreon!

a collage of a few photos of some lesbian-themed stickers under text that says "additionally, I make some lesbian interest stickers and postcards". another cartoon drawing of me in high-viz bows and says "thank you for your time and attention" in the bottom corner.

A digital drawing in a vintage pulp style, promoting Wasteland Pony Express, a post-apocalyptic lesbian serial udon western romance. The outer image is a pair of riders, facing mostly away from the viewer. One is a thin and worn-looking cowgirl in fringed chaps, the other is wearing a biker jacket with a yellow cat on the back. Southwestern flora, including garlands of flowers, and a bird round out the frame. Inlaid is a narrow red box with four riders, a donkey, and a mule riding across the desert.
Below, in a separate box, is a summary of the update. It says:

Artie has decided she’d going to be up & at ‘em and it’s just about time to return Lou to Hereafter (and, therefore, go to face her death at the hand of her boss/god) but Lou isn’t ready. She doesn’t want to be all alone again, but most importantly, she doesn’t know how she is going to bear losing Artie.
The girls try to start paving the road to the end with good times, but it’s harder than they expect. It’d be easier to celebrate with the deathday girl if the two of them could stop taking turns crying. Even an unexpected bit of really, really good news leaves Lou feeling less than pleased.
