manga
here's my mangadex list of yuri recs!! updated frequently o(>ω <)o
some notable favourites are
✩ Throw Away The Suit Together by Key Yang
✩ The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't A Guy At All by Arai Sumiko
✩ Hana ni Arashi by Kobachi Ruka
✩ Alcohol and Ogre-Girls by Hashiba Minori and zinbei
✩ Tamen de Gushi by Tan Jiu
one of my most prized possessions is my english copy of Boyish², a butch x butch yuri anthology! i'm always looking for more yuri (o´▽`o) i love maids and office ladies and butches especially
anime
no lists this time cause i don't actually watch all that much yuri anime? but Revolutionary Girl Utena is the show of all time, and Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury are very good shows with pretty explicit yuri elements.

i also entirely owe my teenage years to yuri-bait anime like the Love Live! series and Hibike! Euphonium. these two amvs were everything.

scholarship
i do enjoy academic papers, and i love seeing people smarter than me articulate my thoughts on gender in yuri and yaoi. they're paywalled behind JSTOR though, so if you don't have university access they may be hard to read.
