queer palestinian and arab content please
I love this, I will admit I am still doing research into queer Palestine, but here are some of the books I have been recommended to pick up so far!
Between Banat: Queer Arab Critique and Transnational Arab Archives
Mejdulene Bernard Shomali
Queer Palestine and the Empire of Critique
Sa'ed Atshan
Decolonial Queering in Palestine
Walaa Alqaisiya
(Some of the links above are affiliate links, and I will be donating the profits of that)
As for other resources, there is Queering the Map, a project I have been a fan of for a while now.

"you'll regret transitioning/coming out/etc. later on in life, you shouldn't do it!" even if i were to, so what? there's a perfectly good day right here. we're living it now. that hypothetical day may never come. i choose to embrace living my truth now than living in fear of hypothetical situations that no one can account for today.
today is a very important today, in fact, today is the most important day, because you are living it right now. it is neither past nor future, meaning you have direct influence over what happens. embrace today. live for today. be yourself today, instead of waiting or living in fear of tomorrow. today is a beautiful thing to waste.

sometimes ao3 authors will write the best found family fluff/angst and then turn around and write the most unholy smut known to man and honestly? thatโs range.

THE @diorkyeom / @fairyhaos AO3 FIC REC LIST
last updated: 16/09/2023
a compiled list of all the ao3 fics that i've read for seventeen which i've loved, kudosed, and proceeded to download so i'll always have with me. to be updated whenever i have new recs!
are you soaked in dreams? - poppyseedheart
verkwan, non-idols, f2l, oneshot
hnggghhhhhh the softest, most caring fic ever. literally i adore when fics have hansol as this calm and loving force for seungkwan and seungkwan doesn't even REALISE that hansol is always by his side until something happens and he's hit with the full force of how much he adores him
stumble and fall (stage left) - pocketpastel
verkwan, uni au, romeo and juliet production, chaptered
the seungkwan characterisation is off the charts level of accuracy. i loveeee when people have kwan being as obsessed with hansol as hansol is with him pls it makes my heart so happy :< also theatre kid seungkwan and awkward skater boy hansol is just so sweet
Adventures In Fiction - thanku4urlove
verkwan, canon au, crack, fluff, oneshot
the hilarity and the feels are just sooo prominent. also reading fanfiction out loud to one another as part of bonding activities feels like a very very seventeen thing. i can imagine them doing it together and also seungkwan getting so emotionally attached to a fic??? the funniest and realest thing ever actually
i like you a latte - mysterywoozi(writers_haven)
soonhoon, coffee shops, uni au, fluff, oneshot
fluffy. so so fluffy, the kind of strangers/friends to lovers that really fits soonhoon so well. ngl i'm not too keen on reading loads and loads of enemies to lovers fics for soonhoon bc people don't understand that that's their banter, that's how they are as friends, and so i love when fics appear where they are these friends who have fun ribbing off each other. also it's the best when woozi is Whipped and he doesn't even realise it.
Skin;Heat - kwanies
soonhoon, synaesthesia, fluff, oneshot
it is INSANE how much i adore this oml. the idea of jihoon with this type of synaesthesia where he hears sounds and music for people? gorgeous. utterly incredible and so so him. and then soonyoung acting as jihoon's opposite and also his equal.... it's beautiful
Fast Pace - Mistehri
soonhoon, choreographer!hoshi, producer!woozi, crack, oneshot
funny!! so so funny and the rivalry of soonhoon despite being strangers is utterly hilarious. i just. love the soonhoon dynamic so much and this one feels like it encapsulates it so well and makes it lighter and cooler and sweeter and yes i adore it too
I'll Be Your Man - jeosheo
meanie, office au, rivals to lovers, fake dating, crack, chaptered
this author literally writes such gold in terms of humor oml. this is one of my favourite meanie fics bc it feels so so them and also?? mingyu and his family as these people with weird entrancing abilities is so so funny. also the FEELS wtf it's so good
spooked - lunahui
meanie, uni au, strangers to lovers, crack, oneshot
TOP TIER MEANIE FIC. the characterisation is so so them and i love the idea of mingyu hot guy who's actually lowkey just a soft loser. they're so sweet and so lovely and it's such a fun fic
Habit - alswiffy(lunahui)
meanie, canon au, falling in love, soft, oneshot
CRYING. I ONLY JUST REALIZED THIS IS BY THE SAME AUTHOR AS THE OTHER MEANIE FIC I ADORED. i love the domesticism of this, of loving someone like breathing, of working through feelings together and realising that you've been in love with each other all along
How Sweet It Is - orphan_account
gyuhao, baker!gyu, costume designer!hao, idiots to lovers, oneshot
SO FUNNY. SO THEM. i adore when people manage to get minghao's internal monologue right, (along w wonwoo's) and the way minghao also just becomes so stupid when he's found this hot guy to have a crush on??? gold. i love it sm.
press restart - Acavall
seoksoo, clap era, feelings realisation, oneshot
so so so soft oml. i don't actually read seoksoo a lot bc imo people don't really get their characterisation right, but this is just gold. it's the standard. i love it so much
The Light of Ulleungdo - Mistyreflections
seoksoo, village au, feels, chaptered
(check warnings for this fic)
i could talk for years about this fic and never be able to fully articulate how much it means to me. the imagery and the descriptions and the way it just instantly had me hooked?? i was originally sceptical about reading it but then i opened it, read the beginning in hao's pov, and the next thing i new it was 5 hours later and i had tears streaming down my cheeks and my heart thumping so hard in my chest

Campaign to make The God of Arepo an award winning work and win a literal brick as a trophy for the authors and for Tumblr community as a whole (SUCCEEDED!!!! Update below)
As the artist for one of The God of Arepo comics, my version is up for consideration for the Ignatz Awards for Outstanding Online Comic.
For those of you who don't know the Ignatz is one of the highest industry awards that "recognize outstanding achievements in comics and cartooning by small press creators or creator-owned projects published by larger publishers".
The thing is, winning the award means winning an actual literal brick. Because the mascot is a brick-throwing mouse. So they have to make a bit where the trophy is a brick. Like. Look.
For a long time I thought it was just plain bricks they were handing out, but my friend who won a couple of bricks two years ago had theirs stamped (I saw the bricks in person at their house). So now I am obsessed with the idea of The God of Arepo winning an Ignatz trophy. It will have the honours stamped. On a freaking brick. That's the most Tumblr level meme trophy this comic/story could win (which is also a legit high honour industry award on its own btw don't get me wrong). But wilder than that, the brick allows me to do something. It allows me to smash that break into 5 pieces and ship one of each to the authors plus myself. Writing Prompts, sadoeuphemist, ciiriianan, stu-pot and me will get a piece of clay in recognition for our work with the farmer who built a temple out of stone. The full circle moment.
Imagine the value of this win to the lore of this Tumblr sacred text/folklore. This brick will be smashed and given to the creators, but as a collective folklore, it's also dedicated to all of us on this hellsite too. AWARD WINNING. If The God of Arepo wins I will document the entire process of smashing that brick here.
But we have to make this happen. We need to gather our collective energy and make this campaign work. Please help make The God of Arepo an award-winning story and vote for it in the Outstanding Online Comic category (link). You will need to request a ballot, then submit your vote. I recommend checking out the other nominated comics too. The Ignatz really shortlists good stuff. The voting closes September 8 2023 . LET'S GET THE GOD OF AREPO A BRICK FOR HIS TEMPLE!! LET'S GO!!!! REBLOGS HELP TOO!!
