the queerest place on the internet 🙃
Hey, everyone please do me a favor! s2b2's tumblr has been flagged as adult for ages, but when the editor sent a polite request to staff for it to be unflagged so it would be searchable, they just... insta-deleted the whole fucking thing. It would be very helpful if everyone could contact support and ask them to reverse this.

“Easy, pal,” I said, giving him a pat on the back. “Take it slow. We got you.” He had the brightest green eyes I’d ever seen, and believe me, I’ve seen plenty. They blinked at me once, twice, and then he started coughing. I held him forward a little so he could spit up the rest of what was in his lungs on the deck. Look, coming back from almost drowning is hardly a dignified process. He was doing his best. Luke passed me a canteen of fresh water, which I put to our visitor’s lips. He drank gratefully — a little too gratefully, in fact, which meant I had to pull it back. He made the cutest little sound of disappointment, but to no avail. I’m fairly well-practiced at saying no. “Take it slow,” I told him again, never taking my hands off him. “We just got plenty of water out of you. Let’s take our time putting it back in, hm?” He had a sweet face, as chubby and pink as the rest of him, freckled from exposure to the sun. There’d been a strange little fog that had rolled in earlier, one of those curious little nautical things that just seem to happen from time to time, but it was gone now and the sky and sea alike couldn’t be clearer or calmer. The sun blazed high in the center of it, turning the surface of the water so bright you could hardly look at it. They made the word empyrean to talk about the sky on a day like this, did you know that? English-speakers use it to mean heavenly, which is fair, language being what it is and all, but in my home tongue it literally means on fire. “Where … what happened?” he managed. The words rasped a little out of his throat, parched from the salt water he’d swallowed. A little disorientation was normal in situations like this. He seemed like a sharp kid. He’d adapt. I gave him another little drink from the canteen. This time he let me control the pace and didn’t object when I decided he was done. Good boy; he was learning. “Why don’t you start by telling me what you remember?” We could piece it together, together.
Here's my new story for Shousetsu Bang*Bang Issue 109: The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea! It has handsome men and orgies on a yacht! And a narrator that was very fun to write.

avast me hearties, etc, it be talk like a pirate day. cringe? perhaps. but i come bearing pirate-themed queer smut so i pray to be forgiven
Take What You Can, originally written for Shousetsu Bang*Bang Issue No. 91 (Be Gay, Do Crimes), a story about colony governor's daughter Amelia Crowe losing her virginity to a notorious pirate, rescuing themselves and her childhood sweetheart, and then convincing said childhood sweetheart to break the sexy notorious pirate out of jail and sail away to have threesomes and be pirates together.
I'm linking to the AO3 version instead of the s2b2 website version because some last-minute edits to further file the serial numbers down to plausible deniability resulted in some inconsistencies that are corrected in the AO3 version.
There IS a pinup of a sexy trans pirate so be wary when scrolling in public.

Participants must be 18 or older, or at least willing to lie about it, we’re not fucking narcs. Void where prohibited by some pearl-clutching bullshit law somewhere, probably. Offer does not apply to one of the stories in the issue, which is a completely standalone story, because that’s the joke. Readers of this issue do not have to have read the original stories, but it probably helps. Management is not responsible for any new kinks you discover about yourself while reading. Terms and conditions apply. Leave comments for the creators. See our website for details. We love you.
------------------------------
Hi there! Since the Shousetsu Bang*Bang Tumblr has been deleted without explanation or follow-up, I'm posting this issue announcement from my personal blog.
Are you a fan of original queer content? Do you like steamy stories where people fall in love and also touch each other's naked parts? Does it make you happy to see illustrations of such things? Do you like all these things best when they're completely free, unencumbered by ads or algorithms, handmade and delivered to you by the same webzine that's been doing this since 2005?
Then friend, I have the perfect thing for you.
If you like what we do, and you'd like to see us keep going, here's what you can do to help:
Read the new issue!
Leave comments on the new issue telling the creators that you appreciate their hard work!
Tell your friends (which includes reblogging this post)!
Consider signing up to participate in our June issue!
Thanks, everybody!

A new Shousetsu Bang*Bang story.... from me!!
I made an OATH that I would stop fucking around and get back to writing for the stately old original queer smut zine of the internet, Shousetsu Bang*Bang, this year and I have stayed to that oath! I have a story in the new issue, and it's called Arame Cove! It's a little story about what happens when some new kid comes to take their dear great-uncle's place in your cozy, peaceful beachside community...... with sexy results!! Featuring a hot old guy, pickles as a love language, and kelp-based lubricants. And more!
Do please read it, and comment if you like it, and also read the other stories and do the same! Tumblr nuked the SSBB main tumblr with no explanation or follow up, which has made promotion harder than ever, so please! Share and enjoy! It's free smut! It's so much free smut!!

if anyone’s looking for sex-positive original queer smut, @shousetsubangbang has you more than covered
I'm probably gonna get yelled at for saying this but sometimes something isn't a real problem in fandom, you just learned a Japanese word describing a general fandom practice and got scared and decided it meant "The Bad Ones" of that practice

New webzine, a new trans-centric erotica publication, and a bunch of new pieces from me!
Good evening!
Sign up for these updates as emails.
So simplest things first, I set up a TikTok! I'm hoping to keep uploading clips from my comedy gigs to Instagram and TikTok respectively.
I'm on the line-up at a comedy gig tomorrow night in Athlone if you're in the West of Ireland and you'd like to come along! The gig is at The Brazen Monkey, and the show is gonna start at 8:30PM.
You can get tickets online here for €10 plus the booking fee, and tickets will be €15 on the door.
There's also a new comedy night run by Black Crow Comedy here in Galway - it's an open mic intended for women and queer and nonbinary comedians, and it's at 9pm on Wednesday the 5th July in Aras na nGael.
This event is to raise money for Galway Pride, with tickets at €3, and I'm super excited about more marginalised comics having a dedicated space here in the city.
Anyway, out this week was Issue 103 of the Shousetsu Bang*Bang!
The SBB is an online webzine centred around original queer erotic fiction, and it's been running for nearly 18 years - I was so excited to be a part of this issue with my new novella, Fallen Dust, but I absolutely recommend going through the whole of the issue and reading every story. There's over 160,000 words of queer fiction in this issue, and mine is just 14k of that!
I've also set up a new publication called Trans Erotica, which is a Medium publication centred around trans and nonbinary creators.
If you're trans or nonbinary and you write erotica or erotic fiction, absolutely check it out - the characters in the work don't have to be trans or nonbinary themselves, so long as you are!
I've written up Submission Guidelines here, and if you're new to writing on Medium and would like a guide on how to go about setting up, I've written one of those too.
Media Recs
Donut (2023, dir. Rene Gannon-O'Gara) - My friend Rene's hour-long movie, Donut, is out now! It's a great short flick, super naturalistic, meditative, and exploring the weird intimacy/extra distance of customer service late at night when not many people are around. With nonbinary characters, too!
What Really Happens to a Human Body at Titanic Depths by JP Brown - This is fucked up. But interesting.
This TikTok from hahatoys2022 - I've watched this TikTok so many times this week, it destroys me every time.
I also watched the two new Poirot movies this week, the Kenneth Branagh ones - the second one is kinda shitty, but the first one is a fun enough watch, and I'm quite excited to see the new one with Michelle Yeoh.
I rewatched The Incredibles (2004, dir. Brad Bird) for the first time since I was a kid, and its politics are majorly fucked up. Tweeted about it here.

hi, Nary! hope you're well. I was wondering if you'd be interested in reading (and perhaps signal-boosting) some original queer smut? the tumblr blog for the long-running webzine Shousetsu Bang*Bang just got nuked from orbit, and I know a little boost in site traffic would go a long way towards cheering up our long-suffering editor-in-chief. the current issue (and all previous issues) can be found on shousetsubangbang.com, and the site has backlogs of everything ever posted from 2005 onward, so there's a ton of stuff to enjoy
I'll take a look, thank you for the heads up!

read it on the Shousetsu Bang*Bang website!
"I will write a story about farming," I said. "Because I enjoy thinking about fantasy agriculture, and not as a metaphor for personal growth."
The tsundere love interest I came up with said, "Bitch, you thought."
(The "& illustrated" is, um, a little overstated. I mean, it's got a title card and an end card, but throwing out my back sure did make it impossible to assemble all the pieces of the illustration on time. Whatever, I got in my little maize plant.)

It's really a shame that Tumblr, with all its big talk about inclusion and diversity, and being a space that supports creativity and community, killed the account for a zine that exemplifies exactly all these things. Contact the support team at the link above, and mention the blog's name (shousetsubangbang). Feel free to note how it's been around forever (since 2005!) and what it means to you.
I wasn't sure which category to stick this request into because "terminated account" implies it was...my account that was terminated??? So I picked "something else." Feel free to suggest a better category.
the queerest place on the internet 🙃
Hey, everyone please do me a favor! s2b2's tumblr has been flagged as adult for ages, but when the editor sent a polite request to staff for it to be unflagged so it would be searchable, they just... insta-deleted the whole fucking thing. It would be very helpful if everyone could contact support and ask them to reverse this.

Tumblr's doing a new thing now called Communities, and as of this morning, Shousetsu Bang*Bang has one!
Since our main Tumblr may well be gone for good, here's the workaround for organizing on Tumblr. If nothing else, it'll make a good place for collecting new issue announcements, signup posts, and other useful pieces of SSBB-related information.
As communities are set up right now, there's no way to make it so just anyone can join (and there's a cap of 500 members anyway), so if you want to join, please interact with this post somehow (comment, like, reblog) or message me, and I'll get you invited!
