Gays complimenting each other:

[eo @eeeeow]

To me "I said" is a direct quote as it was delivered in the moment and "I was like" is a general paraphrasing of what I said that may include my interior emotional response plus the general unspoken vibe of the interaction

nobody asked but liveship is worst in the series to me because i thought the handling of sexual violence was ✨garbage✨! not only upsetting, but narratively unsatisfying in a way that ruined the trilogy for me.

it's tawny man>farseer>fitz and the fool>rain wilds>liveship for me

Livehsip traders being 100 times better than farseer what are we saying now

[uncle k8lyn ??? @katttesquad]

absolutely dying for some Janelle Monae in the mix!!!!

[coco 🏳️‍⚧️ @docilepony]

No shade but some people's season 5 song lists are all white artists, and for a season with a Black lesbian lead... I don't know about that

imo there is only one correct response to this, and it involves a sick edit of Talarico to "Nasty" by Tinashe

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

Reporter: Ken Paxton has taken to calling you ‘Talafreako’

@JamesTalarico: If Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein-style sweetheart deals to pedophiles. This is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman from jail, an admitted child rapist, after one of Ken Paxton’s wealthy lawyer friends got involved in the case.

Ken Paxton even kept him off the sex offender registry. Adam Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life, but instead he served less than a month. As of this week, he’s now back on our streets because of Ken Paxton’s corruption.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America, and it is costing Texans, it’s endangering our children, and it must end. The Epstein class has no place in Texas.

maybe people who have this problem should just...read better fantasy books?

i was into classics well before i got deep into adult fantasy and there are PLENTY of well written fantasy books/series with lovely prose, thoughtful character development, interesting themes, etc.

[Jihad al-Haqq • جهاد الحق @JihadalHaqq]

Remembering that one post about an avid fantasy reader who wanted to expand his horizons by reading classic and world literature, and when he came back to reading fantasy he couldn't read it anymore because so much of it was cringe and badly written

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

@3seagrass on the off chance you haven't read them: Burning Kingdoms by Tasha Suri or Starless by Jacqueline Carey, which has a lovely romance subplot between a princess and her nonbinary bodyguard. there are also lesbians in Rebecca Roanhorse Between Earth and Sky, but no definitive HEA.

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

Rook & Rose trilogy by M. A. Carrick for a bi male lead with a male love interest! Also the second most important character in The Raven Scholar is a bi man.

Imriel's trilogy by Jacqueline Carey kind of fits, but he prefers women (has a lot of childhood trauma from men's abuse)

[Andrey 🇨🇭HOP SUISSE @zbogus77]

I feel like lesbians are the one sexual minority that’s not underrepresented in SFF if anything. Do books with bisexual male protagonists even exist lol?

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

@withering_petal i hope you enjoy but fwiw the handling of a certain arc in ship of destiny pissed me off so much that it soured me on the whole trilogy! so if you dislike it you're not alone, lol.

[Stella Chat BPD @redrum_panda]

Faegon is the most obvious one that comes to mind

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

ASOIAF was my first foray into adult fantasy, so for a while it seemed to me like THE best and most impressive and mindblowing and compelling thing to ever exist.

But truthfully, and please don't hate me for this, it's not even in my top TEN fantasy series anymore.

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

Kushiel's Legacy by Jacqueline Carey, Rook & Rose by M. A. Carrick, and Saint of Steel by T. Kingfisher are all good ones with queer norm worlds!

Also John Gwynne Bloodsworn; I don't love it for prose/vibe reasons, but nobody in them seems to care much about gender, which is fun

[artemis ☽⋆｡☆ @winterreaderrr]

hey so we should have more fantasy books without misogyny. if we can imagine magical creatures, surely we can have a world where women rule

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

like what the fuck do you MEAN, consensual and romantic wedding night between a grown man and a THIRTEEN-YEAR-OLD he just PURCHASED as a SLAVE

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

It remains wild to me that he said this—without his irl comments I think one could argue that Dany's relationship with Drogo was intentionally horrible and exploitative and she was just groomed into accepting it.

But this indicates that he did NOT understand what he wrote.

[Gallus Tamanensis @Milkevol]

Does someone remember when GRRM got mad at them for calling (and showing) Dany's wedding night as a rape scene instead of the "romantic and consensual night" he wrote

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

@gothicrhaena did Big Beet pay you to tweet this

[pirate who doesn’t do anything @d_suttonn]

people get so mad when anyone brings this up but it is just SO excessive. we do not need 200 different examples of on page sexual violence to understand that this quasi-medieval patriarchal world is not a safe place for women and girls.

[Ellie🪷 The Boys SPOILERS @Michonnepilled]

George is incredibly strange about his young female characters and enjoys making them suffer sexually for no narrative pay off a lot of the time
