the stars are yuri

idk man i think when a character explicitly tells us that she sees dating as a downgrade from the deeply significant partnership she already has with another character, that she doesn't find kissing or sex intrinsically appealing unless it's for her partner's pleasure, that she finds romance both boring and oppressive and compares the concept itself to a gravity well that assimilates the unsuspecting, that paying lip service to it for the benefit of people outside her relationship makes her feel as though she'd been stripped of her free will, that being forced into its orbit provokes the same helpless terror as being caught in the web of an eldritch entity that actively drives you mad with fear--we should believe her. i don't think we should see her say "when romance is the only context people have for mutually exclusive relationships that are valued above others, they will force everything you say and do into the context of romance regardless of your desires and intentions, and that scares and upsets me" and then do that to to her anyway

there should be a backrooms but for lesbian sex

I feel like "enjoying depictions of problematic people and dynamics in fiction isn't the same as commending it in real life" should be obvious to any literate adult, but too many people online can't handle anything more complicated than children's cartoons

The internet loves joking about toxic yuri as a vague concept but I feel like if I actually talked about any specific toxic yuri I enjoy I'll be crucified instantly
