I'd like to share with y'all a project I've poured my heart and soul into over the last couple of years: a database cataloguing every single older (pre-21st century) LGBT science fiction book I've managed to track down - currently just over 200 titles 🚀

LINK: tinyurl.com/oldgaySF
A banner that reads OLDER LGBT SCIENCE FICTION: A DATABASE in big letters, and tinyurl.com/oldgaySF in smaller print below. The background is an orange-tinted retro-looking photo of a row of radio telescopes.

finished quarantine by greg egan. and i have to say. waiting until halfway through your noir detective thriller to suddenly veer off the road straight into the weeds of quantum mechanics is a hilarious move

I reread A Master of Djinn by @pdjeliclark.bsky.social recently!!! Here's that one scene where Siti shows up on her motorbike. I missed them.....

#AMasterOfDjinn #art

The woman on the motorbike is in a red kaftan top, tan pants, boots, some goggles and short hair. The bike is bronze and silver. the background is green.

can i come over and stare at you like this
Two illustrations from a historical astronomical text depicting a lunar and solar eclipse. The Sun and the Moon are both depicted with faces, the Moon smiling mildly and the Sun looking distinctly disgruntled. The solar eclipse is placed below the lunar, giving the impression of a comic strip in which the Moon gets uncomfortably close and presses its face into the Sun's.
