how are there SIX mini-dramas on the theme of 'two sisters get engaged to two brothers for vague corporate dynastic reasons and end up fucking the wrong guy on their wedding night'

suddenly reminded of the time i was earnestly explaining the appeal of the takarazuka revue to a very proper, very elderly british lady and she stops me and says sweetly, 'i know, dear. i went to a girls' school'
Y’all, the Castlevania: Awakening In The Moonlight musical by Takarazuka Revue is available legally on VOD with subtitles starting today until the end of March, this is a great adaptation and the women in this show are so good, PLUS this is a rare experiment globally

Review: Home for the Funeral (奔丧) by Nan Hu Tang (南胡唐), folk horror which (at least for me) did not quite live up to the hype around its author

Ok I'm going to try and stay calm
But I'll point out that AI translation is literally causing translators to be fired (see the whole Harlequin line in France)

feeling strongly that big accounts with 15K+ followers shouldn't be promoting unauthorised AI translations of baihe novels on a paywalled site that doesn't even consistently name or credit the authors but what do i know

奔丧 is like the anti-Hallmark Christmas story in that it involves a high-flying young woman returning to her mother's rural hometown, where she discovers the importance of love and family ties vs personal ambitions, but more importantly finds herself being hunted relentlessly by an eldritch force

For our We've Always Been Here zine, Julie Vasques ( @julievasques.bsky.social ) is taking us to Ancient Greece with a sapphic illustration, with one woman playing the lyre or phorminx while the other dotes on her.
