Here's one @bradbehlesphoto.bsky.social took of my sister and I at convention where we cosplayed the concept art version of Dee Dee from Batman Beyond.
This was one I made from scratch for both of us.
Two women are dressed in red and white catsuits. They have a jester collar, orange Bob wigs, and white newsboy hats. One woman is crouching with her hands on her knees and the other is balanced on the first one's back on her back.

When I have to work but have almost nothing to do today and would rather be trying to survive and escape a shady research facility (and dying with increasingly ridiculous descriptions) or being a cozy little hobbit.🥲

Two books I wish I had in high school.
Both are YA bi awakening stories. Even though I didn't have these as a teen I'm so happy to live in a time they exist for other baby sapphics.

If I could get people to read nonfiction books, Medical Bondage and Medical Apartheid are two at the top of my list.
Given what just happened to Adriana Smith knowing this history is more important than ever.

Also, my library came in clutch with this physical copy because I was 17th in line on Libby!

Caitlin Starling writing queer sci fi horror can do no wrong.

The best way I can think to describe this book is erotica for adults who used to be Post Secret teenagers.

I saw someone once refer to The Gearbreakers duology as Pacific Rim but very gay and I've never seen Pacific Rim but that seems legit.
This is sapphic, has mechs, a rebel group fighting back against an oppressive power, found family, and complicated sisters.

A left hand holds Gearbreakers by Zoe Hana Mikuta I'm front of a case of books. The case shows two dark haired girls standing in the foreground with the profile of a mech head in the background. The one girl has curly hair and is standing with her back to the reader and is holding a kitana in her right hand with the blade resting on her shoulder. She is missing an eye. The other girl is crouching with her back to the reader and looking over her shoulder. She's wearing goggles.
