I love watching old episodes of Supermarket Sweep because these two just said they're "business partners" who "design sets for plays" and I'm like oh I'm sure

Here we are! Just celebrated our 41st anniversary. Married in 2008 on our 25th anniversary as soon as it was legal in California. We ran a business together designing and painting backdrops and sets for 27 years.
Wow, NO results for 'Sappho' in communities? Damn. That's unexpected.
What or who is sappho?
In addition to the other comment - "Sappho and her friend" refers to the unfortunate practice by historians of portraying queer relationships in a callously heteronormative way, like referring to Sappho's female lover as "her friend".
Sappho was a poet from the island of Lesbo, which is where the word lesbian comes from.
The mythological legend regarding Lesbos was that all of the women Lesbians started having sex with each other one time when all of the men Lesbians went off to war.
Edit: Sappho was a real poet really from Leabos, and is one of the founders of lyric poetry in Western literature. Lyric poetry here means mostly any kind of poem that's a lot shorter than the multi-chapter epics.
Lesbos not Lesbo
Since both of these are assuming you know the island of lesbo
