Love Beyond The Holy Light is being rewritten and is better than ever. Find out how the traumatic events around one girl end up in vampires, witches, paladins, nuns, a war against a goddess and the love between lesbians. Rough draft up now on Patreon.
Hundreds turned out to protest against the conversion therapy ban, which excludes trans people. Protestors from all over the UK gathered in St Peter's Square, Manchester to promote the rights of trans people.

Always good to remind people about this since I promoted this game. I actively aided it unaware of how shitty the dev is.
Transphonic chasers can perish.
Don't buy heartbeat or any game ever by the dev.
Just another reminder that the lead dev's gf for
#heartbeatrpg
is extremely transphobic and proud of it.
@sheppapalooza
and
@nikoteenie
are both trash human beings and honestly deserve every ounce of hate they get. Don't spend money on anything of theirs🤗
Happy Men's day to all the amazing trans and non binary masculine folks who deserve much more then the bullshit that oppressive structures have done. Thank you for showing positive masculinity and that masculinity can be amazing.
I refuse to debate the existence of trans people, I refuse to even engage an article to scoff at it. Trans people are real, non binary trans people are real, we don't need proof, there is plenty of science and history but end of the day if we just started now I'd still believe.
"People aren't attracted to trans women"
People make super expensive ass sex robot to fuck trans women without any of the "politics" associated in treating us like real people.
If money is the barrier for you switching over from D&D to Thirsty Sword Lesbians, let me tell you that TSL cares about people so much that there is 1704 community copies on as of time of writing this tweet for the core book.
Yuri gets less marketing, has to deal with societies hate of women, the yuri titles picked up are mostly the same kind of soft high school yuri and then when a not soft high school yuri is picked up it isn't marketed to the new audience of adult queer women but the same niche.
I heard on the publishing grapevine that yuri light novels and manga sell poorly in English with only a few notable exceptions. BL, for some reason, doesn't have the same problem - there is a small core audience out there reliably buying even the nichest titles.
An interesting thing about how three Houses treats Petra is that Petra, despite being a princess is given the commoner class. Given that the classes work through the school system, this says what she is to the church. Brigid isn't a valid state because they don't worship Sothis.
Reclaiming HP or any other property made by bigots for the queers is not radical or funny or fun, it's raising the value of that IP. I fucking hate seeing the amount of effort that people put into "fixing" some shit from a big company when queer creators are so fucking poor.
ACAB includes the military. TTRPG community members pretending that we should cape for an active leader in mass death cuz he can tweet pretty are wild.
The US Military only brings pain to this world.
I say this when both my parents were in the US Military and every single
What I hate most about captalism is there is all these empty homes, empty buildings in strip malls, etc that could house the homeless, become artist allies, flea markets, farmers markets. It can make the community better but some rich dude rather hold it hostage hoping 4 cash.
@cisgenderhaver
It's hard to make friends in person
But there are resources you can look at queer owned shops often they have events
[ this obviously does not have every queer owned place]
You can look for queer + your local area on google. There might even be groups
Who is a character that someone hating is an instant red flag for you?
You hate Edelgard and your a centrist at best, you have no media literary and you probably have terrible taste in everything.
Happy

everyone, as elected goddess of the world I am here to give you all a thread of amazing trans people who you could support or at least follow.
@sofiabuffgf
Publishers actively tried to fight libraries and literally still do. The e-lending model is as shit as it is becuase publishers hate libraries.
Libraries are to a publisher always gonna just be lost money so they are actively pushing for ways to charge libraries more.
Remeber that these men "mad about she-ra" actually aren't mad about she-ra it's a dog whistle to indoctrinate lonely dudes to seeing fake enemies that don't exist. It's not about watching the show, about what's in it, it's about teaching men how women should be and brainwashing
With ebay banning sexual content we now further the conservative rule of the internet. Everyone should be upset about this. Even if you don't care about sexual content like remember that basically anything queer is still seen as pornographic to many conservatives, it's real bad.
The 600 Dollars are not worth this, they aren't worth giving companies protection from law suits either. 600 dollars are a full on insult without any of this it's an attack on the American people when they are trying to strip away this many rights with such a joke of a bribe.
TERFs are ultimately a group that mostly exist to oppress cis women using trans women as the means. There is a reason conservative groups donate so much and it's not that trans people are something they stay awake at night hoping to kill.
TERFs Poicies are all anti all women.
I am still mad about the Tumblr Purge and you should be too. Queer people are actively being removed from the internet and the more we are targeted the easier it is to do "well tumblr did it and they came out ok, steam did it, youtube did it".
Japan just ensured trans women have the right to use the women's restroom. A right trans women do not have in a lot of countries including the USA.
It's a major step forward but obviously there is so many rights to fight for due to how bad the conditions for trans folks is atm.
While Yuri once might have been "Yuri is lesbian content without lesbian identity" that is increasingly not the case.
Increasingly Yuri works at least briefly touch on some kind of queer politics and an increasing number actually use the world Lesbain explicitly and talk
This is blowing up, please support trans creators making indie art. I make stories but if your into games there is so many amazing ones to buy.
Check out lots of stuff on itch, LGBT groups on steam, etc. Tons of amazing upcoming games too and play TTRPGs y'all!
I do not need Benjanun to hate men. I was just stalker and sexually harassed by a man yesterday. Men do a good enough job making me hate men themself. Benjanun and I constantly disagree. It's wild to think us weak brained trans lesbians are simply brainwashed.
Transphobia is inherently damaging to cis women. It defines their bodies as for reproduction, it erases cis women who have been hurt by orher my cis women, it defines cis lesbians sexuality strictly, erases split attraction model, paints women as in need of defending, removes
Honestly I take pride in putting myself into my characters. People do not make characters like me so I do. Str8 cis white guys can make every MC they write cis str8 and white people won't bat an eye.
I'm proud to make Trans Latina Lesbians in everything I make.
Wild that in Thailand you can go buy over the counter HRT and over on terf island their like fear mongering the idea someone might get HRT.
Like we already know this shit is way safer than many meds people take over the counter.
The Guardian DIY HRT hit piece finally came out and there's something inspirational about it. It's not the article itself but that our community came together over the past month to warn one another not to speak with them. And they couldn't find a single interviewee doing DIY!
In my head Edelgard's weapon of choice being an Axe is an act of defiance to noble culture. An Axe is a common mans tool that be be used as a weapon. Her family relic isn't an axe it's probably the sword of serios. It's aligning herself with commoners and breaking gender norms.
Being Gay is still a fucking crime in many countries, it's barely legal in america.
Trans people some of the highest rates of poverty.
Sex work is still a crime and many people in our communities have to or want to do this work.
Crime is not a moral good, it is state power.
Fucking disgusting fascist country. Not even allowed to talk about how many people died. They can't justify the genocide so they're simply making it illegal to talk about.
It is okay to be absorbed in your queerness. To currently just be hyper into queer culture, queer history, into whatever it is about you that you want to explore more. Cis hetero folks can be obsessed with anything don't worry about loving your community and yourself.
@PedanticRomantc
BTW y'all this is the writer of this book and the artist.
This is the face of Marvel's "Totally trust us with this take on diversity and people of color and queerness" squad.
You can just like let IPs die.
You don't need to do fan fic to queer Harry wart or hack D+D to not be racist or read H.P's horror with a critical eye or like gay hack homophobic game P5.
You can just not, I don't get it. There is billions of pieces of media to engage.
So came out to my dad finally: It was positive, lots of awkwardness, he wants me to keep my dick and talked about a porn he saw or something with a trans girl in it with her dick....so my dad wants me to be a big dig porn star? IDK but he is supportive but worried about bigots.
Fun fact popular white trans people, you can actually use your platform to uplift Trans People of Color. I see lots of white trans folks with platforms go like "I don't represent all trans people, we need to talk about the struggles of Trans PoC" but where are the Trans PoC?
It's really strange that we're asked to love the worst fucking male characters ever but like a girl does something pretty good without explanation about how she has 4 brothers and her dad was a great hero and trained her people start flipping their shit throwing out Mary Sue.
If people gave a 10th of a shit about some indie queer IP as they did about whatever shit a bigot made that was popular when they were a teen or kid we would have a radically queerer art world.
The best way to get more "messy queer content" is to go out and engage indie queer content. Go and give a queer webtoon the same energy you give to marvel or go buy a queer adult book and sing it's praises like a YA book fan is.
Queer art needs money and hype. Give it both
If you decide to follow me because of this tweet, get ready for me being a big old leftist and very sapphic.
That's mostly what I do and every now and again I post new work, like new stories, comics, and I got two great TTRPG projects coming to kickstarter.
Your warned.
If You Think "Creating Diversity in a medium that barely has any people of color or diverse ranges of skin tones even for POC is Good."
You must accept "Removing representation that fits into a white supremacist narrative of light skin being prettier."
This shit ain't the same
Attacks on sex work and "sex" always hit LGBT+ folks first. The sexualization of people who simply exist has lead to this you might think but people sexualize race yet race is never a topic that suddenly starts to be removed in "18+" sweeps it is always sexuality.
The utter rejection of own voice and treating it as if it is actually more inclusive is so disgusting. It matters if trans women are writing about trans women, it matters if lesbians are writing about lesbains. It's not intrusive to account for open and out people.
Guy best friend I had in high school joined some branch of the military.
The only way to start redeeming yourself from the military is to leave it.
I am not gonna put any respect on any troops.
Shocking to me people I know are following this dude.
I really hope An Easy Introduction to Love Triangles (To Pass the Exam!) gets an English release, it's so good and I really wish we had more polyam sapphic Manga/Comics.
I hate whenever there is a story that's like "and the only people who can do this cool thing are women, until a man can also do it and no he is a ciisgender heterosexual man, yes, he can also do this now and he's the most cool and important cuz he is a man being cool"
Trash
@SailorPortia
"You see Legend of Korra had a hand hold at the very end and adventure time and she-ra had a kiss at the end ummm and the owl house and steven universe exist so if you only look at childrens media made by sapphic people you'll see sapphic people are over represented"
I ended up getting paid 32 cents per word working on Thirsty Sword Lesbians. Amazing pay rate way better than my day job. Evil Hat paid really well, glad that company isn't so greedy as to have a policy not to give more money to people who make the art for them.
It be super easy to prove, if she broke NDA he could just show the email where he offered her more then 4000 dollars.
He could show the contract that was originally offered.
Why would she lie, what would she gain? Making those videos literally kills her career a a VA.
@adrestianloyal
I am constantly shocked how little fire emblem characters and the fire emblem matter in Fire Emblem Heroes.
You'd think they'd idk want to use this as a crossover game but it isn't it's a norse mytholgy fire emblem you can sink millions into.
I really hate this "IT'S BASICALLY GAY" attitude we get in things that are not gay. Glad you could read it that way but like the reality is if the thing isn't queer then I do think it's kind of harmful to in a review or recommendation be like "this is super gay."
I'm also Puerto Rican, there are other Latnix people working in the TTRPG design space not actively part of the war crime machine.
Puerto Rico itself is at the heel of the US. The militaries powers could be called down to enforce the US's will on its colony at any time.
It really is wild how little about Brigid and Petra people understand. They simply chose to forget [Probably cuz they only care about Petra as a tool against El] that Edelgard consents in every route to Petra leaving her side and doesn't retaliate even when TWISD is at her neck.
Why would we want to ignore Brigid? Edelgard's predecessors subjugated the island nation, and she and Petra free it.
Brigid is another example of her setting right what the old Fodlan nobility made wrong.
The point of whutaboutism is usually to whutabout a BAD thing...
I'm a loud Latnix Trans Queer Lady who writes comics, does podcasts, makes articles, designs games, consults on comics, and rages.

One of the most annoying things of recent time is the "counter-counter culture" of people gleefully being like "I love corporate thing, I love main stream media, i'm not a hipster, I'm basic and proud"
acting like their revolutionary but they are just doing what capital wants.
"X trash didn't make this, I did or miku did or whatever" no you didn't, no miku didn't. It's still valuing the art of a piece of shit over investing that energy into new and vibrant ideas made by people who are probably worried if they can pay rent or eat.
What doesn't get talked about nearly enough is how many trans folks are stuck. Stuck with shit family or shit friends that either they can be out around but make them feel bad or they simply can't be out around. This is a terrible symptom of captalism where mobility isn't seen
Happy coming out day folks. Coming out is a repeated process, a continuing event, a shifting and changing event. So it's okay to just celebrate your queerness even if you have just come out to you, to your online friends, to your partner, or maybe to everyone you could, love ya.
TERFs goal are to separate trans women from community. They want to divide us from cis lesbian, to divide us from non binary people, they want us alone so we're easy to pick off. Don't let TERFs divide us.
"Why is my nerd space so white"
Follow the money, most nerd hobbies are expensive as fuck. Especially follow that money to the origins of that hobby and see how white people dominated that space and then hired other white people, that got more white people into it, etc.
Lion Forge has a higher % of women in editing then I think any company (In "the west") ever has had. If we start talking women of color (and/or queer women too) it's not even a contest really. We aren't even beginning to see the the fruits either, comics take time.
We can argue how "queer" it is to be attracted to trans folks but sexuality is self appointed labels. It isn't nessarly an exact description. To start saying a str8 person attracted to a trans person is a form of queerness I feel is in many ways validation of TERF logic.
That or find a Japanese LGBTQ org working for trans rights, there is a lot fighting after that ruling that hurts trans folks a whole lot. They could use support and are in many cases a far less visible case.
People in PR are dealing with an ever worsing condition becuae the US government is bleeding them dry to appease rich white people and that's being enforced by the decedents of the colonizers who enslaved, commited genocide and brainwashed us.
Oppressive systems feed each other.
"Grr people don't want queer comics" "People Don't want Women" "people don't want PoC" "People don't want older people" - People of no culture who are once again proven wrong.
Nothing makes more more unreasonably annoyed than the "my cross dressing boyfriend" Manga/comics that are flooding the market. Like cis women want trans women so bad but they fucking hate us too so here is some art about totally not dating a trans woman.
Nintendo has always been doing unethical bussiness practices. This new wave are just increasingly visible cuz A. People are getting older and B. They are getting bolder.
@Peldari
Cool and he's white my point is that this is a book featuring of POC.
Also like he's cis right do maybe not ad equip to write trans people.
Also he's not the writer, a guy from a comedy show is and who knows how much control he has?
I've been saying, [unpopularly] for a while that video game graphics can't afford to be better. That we're better than we ever should have been, and that is because of this. The reality is we can not ethically have these minerals on the scale tech wants it.
i feel like people need to prepare for the eventual reality of boycotting apple & these other big tech companies if we wanna actually help congo, cause as long as there’s enough demand to release a new iphone or laptop every year, the atrocities happening there will not end
5000% If a ally doesn't boost trans poc, queer trans folks, disabled trans folks, the intersections of all of that then they aren't allying. The goal isn't to be famous off the communities you support but to use your platform to help the communities grow beyond you.
@yugiohtas
I quit acting all together because being trans means you get like a small sliver of roles and then roles you wouldn't hate doing even less and you have to move to the most expensive places in the world to get the pleasure of working terrible gigs.
Trans actors deserve better
