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.

Micah, Aenea, & Drystan from Pantomime by @lrlam.bsky.social which rereleases today! 🎪🌠

#art

3 characters on a teal background. Micah is white, androgynous, with short auburn hair wearing a purple and teal aerialist costume, arms behind his back. Aenea is a shorter white girl with brown hair in a braid, in a green aerialist costume, and one hand on her hip. Drystan is in an old fashioned white and pink clown costume and makeup, with short blonde hair. The border on the background has dragonfly wings and crescent moons.
