So I lost my temper with all of the “books you must read before you die” “books to read to be considered well-read” lists that were like, at least 75% male, and made a different list. Obviously it’s skewed by what I’m familiar with, but I’ve tried to get it to be a broad range. Give it a go!

for all who have asked about remakes of these buttons, here’s what i’ve found! commie dyke  //  i support lesbian families  //  i wasn’t recruited, i enlisted  //  lesbian mother  //  fesbian-leminist  //  your silence will not protect you  //  don’t die wondering  //  encourage lesbianism  //  listen to lesbians  //  i’m a lady lover  //  visible  //  punk dyke  //  ask not what a lesbian can do for you  //  we are! everywhere  //  gay is good  //  born again lesbian  //  lavender menace  //  out of the closet and into the street  //  dykes with bikes  //  i’m one

We need a series of books set in a world where there are no men. Just women. Romance stories, action and adventure, coming-of-age. stories of all kind, set in a women-only world. Men just don’t exist.

Actually, it’s a reoccurring idea in science fiction. The single-sex society. From wikipedia, there is a long tradition of women-only worlds, but not true for the opposite, as “Joanna Russ suggests this is because men do not feel oppressed, and therefore imagining a world free of women does not imply an increase in freedom and is not as attractive”. (A world free of women would mean no class of people for men to oppress and have their way with, so obviously not attractive).

I highly recommend everyone to read feminist science-fiction.

The Celaeno series of lesbian fantasy novels take place on a world where there are only women and are really good :D

EVERYONE IS LESBIAN and it’s glorious

Yall should check out Jane Fletcher then because 90% of her books are about societies where men literally don’t exist. My fav being “Dynasty of Rogues” which focuses around a group of rangers, and ofc it’s cram packed with lesbians :)

The Celaeno series (Shadow of the Knife, Rangers at Roadsend, The Temple at Landfall, The Walls of Westernfort, and The Dynasty of Rogues) are set on a female-only world. The other series she wrote (the Lyremouth Chronicles) is set on an earth-like world with a mix of male and female characters but the majority of the 4 book series is about the relationship between two women, one from a female dominated culture and the other from a culture where bisexuality is the norm and where men and women are equal due to the prevalence of magic.

Another highly recommended book is Ammonite by Nicola Griffith. It’s a sci-fi story about a planet where a native virus kills any man (and some women) who sets foot on its surface. The story follows a female researcher sent from Earth to research a cure for the virus and trace it’s history. It’s one of the better lesbian books I’ve read.

no one:

OMG THE END

the end caught me off guard byeeeee

THIS ONE IS THE BEST OUT OF ALL OF THEM STOP STOP

If there’s anything I can finesse, it’s a resume, interview and pay rate. 

Please help? I need these skills?

Come my child…

LIE. LIE. LIE. (By lie, I mean embellish) I’m going to tell you why. I lied on my resume to get the job that made it so I didn’t have to embellish anymore. By embellish I mean make your positions seem more important than they are. Chances are you’re not getting paid enough for what you do anyhow. The system is definitely going to play you so you gotta make a move too. 

Use businesses that are no longer in business (Finesse #1) Everyone has those establishments in their cities that went out of business; Fridays, hospitals, dennys, etc. USE THEM. I’m a HR Manager, I’m not going to dig for a reference from a closed business. Not in this lifetime.

Use your friends who are employed in corporate America as references. (Finesse #2) List them as former supervisors or managers. Pick your friends with professional phone voices who can gas you up in a corporate manner.

Research the pay rate for the company, city and position. (Finesse #3) They may be offering you 25K to be a store manager when in reality store managers in your exact city (or their employment averages) are making 35K. Do not be afraid to challenge a salary. It shows that you also did your homework on the position and the company. 

Chaotic good.

I’m reading this queer anthology and the first story is a fairytale about a queer Latina girl whose anger was so fierce it literally poisoned the rich white men who unfairly captured the transgender soldier she was in love with and my heart is literally bursting I’m going to cry

the second story is about two queer girls who leave their husbands-to-be at the altar and flee together on a boat to become pirates IM FUCKING SCREAMING THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF GAY CONTENT I SIGNED UP FOR

okay this is the anthology and it’s entirely written by queer authors and inspired by the stories of real queer teens in history and it’s the most wholesome and epic thing I’ve read in a long while
