The Rec Center's annual Femslash February celebration begins next week, but while we have a pair of exciting single-author lists in the works, we've gotten a kind of...dispiriting number of one-off submissions so far.

So! Please share your favorite F/F with us! 💕 Make sure to put "Femslash February" in the themes/tropes field so I catch it.

This is your LAST CHANCE to purchase the "Relaxing Tea Better Fucking Work." Mug.

Never trust an asexual who says “for fuck’s sake.” They do not hold stock in the sake of the fuck they are lying and manipulating you

Really glad we’re all into harm reduction now, suddenly! I look forward to everyone’s continued support of needle exchange sites, decriminalization of drugs and sex work, affordable, multi-unit housing (yes even in your neighborhood), and free universal sex education, contraceptives, menstrual products, and pre/peri/post-natal care.

UNWARRANTED?

alancummingreally I wore this suit to the Met gala centuries ago in protest at being told to shut up and keep out of politics during the Iraq war, but I think today its message is even more prescient and vital.

The quote is by the great Audre Lord and the suit was designed by Stephen Cirona.

I wanna do the whole cast but my brain is so frantic this month

BREADMAN THIS IS SO SO GOOD, I ADORE THE WAY YOU'VE DONE THEIR HAIR AAAAAAAA

This a a reminder to not fall victim to the sunk-cost fallacy. Just because you invested time and energy into something, does not mean you should indefinitely waste more time and energy on it, if you decide it’s not what you want anymore. This goes for anything, from books, to relationships, to jobs, to hobbies, etc.

If it’s not serving you anymore, move on.

This is honestly one of the places I find Marie Kondo's advice most helpful. I stop, look at the thing I've spent time and money on only to realize I dislike, and I say, "Thank you for teaching me something about myself and my preferences. I think I've learned this particular lesson and we can part ways now."

And then I don't feel like I "wasted" things or made a mistake. I just tried one path of learning about myself, learned something, and now it's time for a different path. Works a lot better for my brain.

The time Marie Kondo said "you can thank a a shirt you've never worn for teaching you about your taste", thereby making it NOT A WASTE literally rewired my whole brain. Acknowledge the thing and move forward, even if that means leaving the thing behind.

I'm not really a HanLuke shipper but I can imagine them hooking up early in their friendship & then Han later after various revelations having a personal crisis over whether or not it's weird to have sex with both halves of a set of twins

& like he can't ask anyone if it's weird without admitting that he's already done it. he could talk to Luke about it bcos obviously Luke already knows but he's kind of avoiding the subject with Luke in case drawing attention to the fact that he's dating Luke's sister prompts a shovel talk. he's pretty sure Luke can kill people with his brain now and he doesn't want to have that particular shovel talk if he an avoid it.

If Han came to me with this kind of question, I would be very supportive and make sure he didn't uncomfortable about having to ask the question because most of all this is about his feelings.

However, I would also desperately need to know if Luke used the force on that thang, and Han also knows I would ask, which is why he never brings these problems to me.

“Get his ass” Is so unreasonably funny to me. A huge win for the English language. Today’s version of “seize him” imo
