If you're watching Heated Rivalry and thinking, "Holy shit there's all this sex and pleasure and fun and yearning and character exploration and I think they might figure it out and find happiness, is this even legal???" I am begging you to start reading genre romance, you are going to be thrilled!

I love when I give @vernavenisa.bsky.social advice about what to say to someone and then she’s like “I like that a lot! I’m going to run it past some neurotypical friends and see what they say.” 😂
