Unfortunately, the number of horrific and unacceptable situations happening at cons and in their communities far exceeds our capabilities to resolve or even acknowledge, so CSSN does not offer personal crisis intervention. But you can help someone by learning to Believe It like NARUTTO!

Now, if you're looking to help people individually, rather than being someone who says they're "safe" for people to go to at cons, study up on peer-to-peer crisis intervention! We'll have a more detailed resource on our website soon but here's Cliff Notes from an old post: bsky.app/profile/cosp...
If you live in the U.S., you may be feeling hopeless right now. But you also might be feeling like you want to do something to help, but don't know how. Let's do a brief thread on PEER CRISIS INTERVENTION from our certified victim advocates.

There's only so much we can do, and though we have the privilege of being white, we're still marginalized women—men in power may not think what we have to say is valuable. If they hear these issues from multiple people, valued customers who attend regularly, it's a gentler calling in.

That kind of contribution is immensely powerful because unfortunately, due to our position in the community, we tend not to be heard by higher ups. But if you attend the con, approach with assuming ignorance instead of malice, and let them know you're telling them because you care, they might listen

That page also contains descriptions of WHY certain evaluation criteria exist and leads to a sample policy (an updated version is forthcoming as well!). You can direct the con staff to the page, or you can do some research and read it yourself to make your recommendations.

1. One of our most asked questions any time CSSN gets traffic is "how can I help?" There's no one-size-fits-all approach to answering that but if you attend a convention you love, it's worth checking and reaching out to gently let them know if they could be doing more. cosplayer-ssn.org/rp/home.php

So I've been quiet about today being my birthday, but if you want to celebrate with me, you've got two options!
1. Reach out to a convention about its harassment policy score if not 6/6 here: cosplayer-ssn.org/rp/home.php
2. (mutuals only) 10 Dance BL watch party next Sunday at 7pm Eastern

Sometimes therapy is just "how the fuck do I talk to this person productively?" And honestly, workshopping like that has been very helpful.

Desperately want to go on a book shopping spree. Been getting back into reading books to curb screentime and I forgot how much I love it.

Damn. I really try my best to be skeptical and discerning of videos in case it's AI generated. Been okay at it but I fell for one because it was an adorable shiba! 😭
The betrayal. How dare you use my weakness for shibes against me.

Happy Halloween! I did a closet cosplay of Gerard Way in the Helena music video for my vocal lessons last night. Even got a still from me during the lesson and I'm really happy with how it turned out! Might make this my go to casual cosplay.

It's so rewarding to see the benefits of vocal lessons so clearly. I love the song "Black Sheep" by Metric (especially the Brie Larson Scott Pilgrim version) and now I can sing it so much better/stronger than I used to ages ago. Feels good.
