PROJECT

Yuri Game Jam 2025

BOOK

the latest book i read was things have gotten worse since we last spoke, and now i'm working on bitter thorns. the first title is about two women who meet on a forum for gay people, and their subsequent email exchanges that evolve into a D/s style relationship. it was visceral and intense and i enjoyed it, though i wish it was a little longer and gave the dominant more characterization. the latter is a lesbian retelling of beauty and the beast; all the pages have embellishments printed around the headers and footers which i've been liking. why don't more books do that?

my latest purchases are demonic males, medieval romance and the construction of heterosexuality, and medieval misogyny and the invention of romance. if you couldn't tell, i've been collecting a lot of titles about women in the medieval era. you'll likely (hopefully?) see these titles reappear next obsessions.

MOVIE

nothing could have prepared me for the brilliance of House (1977). i wouldn't call this a horror, but an experimental, wild, maximalist ride. my friends and i could not stop laughing at this absurd film. please watch it.
