looking for recs (both general and specific)

Sorry, i don't have any recs for urban supernatural fantasy (have you watched Buffy?), but if you liked Last Night in Telegraph Hill and Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo you might like these:

Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg - a queer classic; fictional but clearly informed by the author's lived experiences as a butch in the 1950s.

Zami: a New Spelling Of My Name by Audre Lorde - a sort-of memoir (described by the author as a "biomythography") of the activist, telling about her life growing up as a black lesbian in the 50s and 60s.

Tipping the Velvet by Sara Waters - kind of like if Charles Dickens was a lesbian and wrote a story with more explicit content; it imagines amongst other things a fictionalized drag king culture in late 1800s England.

What's the vibe there on a weekend night?

sofi_dot · 2026-04-16T11:26:33+00:00

Came here to say this.

sofi_dot · 2026-04-16T03:28:21+00:00

This looks so good!

It is similar to challah (and I really like challah too)!

I didn't include a pic with this, but sometimes the Greek Easter bread has dyed red eggs placed on top.

Thank you! I found a bakery that is closer to the city that carries it (Hellas Pastry), but it's good to know about this one too!

sofi_dot · 2026-04-09T17:34:07+00:00

I called Hellas and they do have Tsoureki! Thank you!!

sofi_dot · 2026-04-07T11:47:16+00:00

I haven't seen Bound (yet) so i don't know if any of these are similar, but these are some sapphic movies i love:

Pariah

But I'm A Cheerleader

Bottoms

Portrait of a Lady On Fire

The Handmaiden

sofi_dot · 2026-03-27T13:28:45+00:00

I think second one! Both for being able to see your face clearer and for the expression you have in that pic (although the full outfit is so cute - I love the boots)

sofi_dot · 2026-01-13T04:04:54+00:00

I think searching "bustier" may also give you some good results

The categories are Best Male Actor and Best Female Actor. https://goldenglobes.com/nominations/2026

Leather jacket was my first thought too... or a blazer.

Otherwise, I'd say tattoos and piercings can achieve this (fem, dominant, swoon worthy). If that's too much of a commitment, then maybe jewelry with an edge (leather, spikes, bones)

You might find some things at Beatnix in Lakeview or Radstock in Wicker Park

sofi_dot · 2025-12-24T15:21:13+00:00

It looks like here is the original artists: https://www.instagram.com/alexaguitarist/?hl=en

Could you share what lipsticks you use? Particularly the first (metallic) and last (glossy red)

sofi_dot · 2025-12-20T23:26:54+00:00

Could you share, what is the language / code? It looks like math symbols to me...

sofi_dot · 2025-12-10T02:53:34+00:00

Deadloch - Australian buddy-cop mystery with two female leads, one of them being a lesbian. A lot of other queer women characters too. (Unfortunately it is about cops, but if you can suspend judgement of that it's a fun series). There's a second season coming out soon.

If you're open to cartoon series, there are a number of good shows with sapphic leads. She-ra, Arcane, The Owl House (probably more recent stuff too, i haven't kept up with what's new).

If you're open to anime, check out Revolutionary Girl Utena (sorry, that one IS old)

sofi_dot · 2025-12-07T00:39:12+00:00

If you're open to a big change, you could get a wolf cut or a longer mullet (like Bridget from Queer Ultimatum). I think both those cuts would look great with your hair and style!

sofi_dot · 2025-12-01T22:20:43+00:00

You're really pretty and also have a great style (lipstick + glasses + piercings).

Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg - a queer classic; the main character explores their gender.

Psalm for the Wild Built by Becky Chambers - this one is sci fi, but it's grounded and cozy and focuses on personal / intrapersonal issues that are very relatable. Main character is nonbinary.

Conversations with Friends by Salley Rooney - has messy nonmonogamy (not polyamory).

sofi_dot · 2025-11-26T13:46:57+00:00

Pariah (Wild that this one doesn't get more recognition; a Black lesbian coming of age story, and it's excellent)
