Kiki with a Parasol (2020). This is the splash art I created for Krita version 5.0. The picture was inspired by Claude Monet’s Woman with a Parasol. Fullsize & Info: tysontan.com/gallery/gall...

come tomorrow, everything is going to be nuts once X-Men '97 details drop

(we better have an actual trailer leak and not "the concept of a trailer mentioned")

I wish I was brave enough to play scary games because I am such a chicken wuss

Friendship or a folding chair

This is my dance about how much transphobes suck

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 19h

I love Tron.

Still won't watch Tron Ares. That movie functionally does not exist to me.

me: upset, cursing people with THE CURSE OF RA
brain: immediately shitposts Anubisu (YST) into showing up and CURSE OF RAing the Troopers
me: well that's one way to stop being upset, the shitposter brain takes over

I keep trying to fix this top because it's been such a pain in the ass while not progressing much elsewhere

Finished illustration that I did for the RW/YST 2026 calendar! #roninwarriors #samuraitroopers #鎧伝サムライトルーパー

An illustration of a blonde man in a green and black yukata charging holding a katana. The background is green trees and one cherry tree.

Shorts with chained jewelry not finished

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 4d

Top: remade
Shorts: fixed
Legs: didn't remake, added elastic
Black leg warmers: need hubby help

Throw all the pink stuff in washer due to dye to make it come out faster

Sleeve: find pattern, attach elastic to waist and upper arm portions

Start gluing 3d print parts

To be quite honest, it's getting harder for me to focus on crafting/drawing/writing due to Bee's health.

I'm getting so overwhelmed that I keep making mistakes with the costume and I know that I've already am running down the clock at this point.

Kiandra was a librarian named Sakura who fell off the ladder when it happened.

Woke up a couple of weeks later and decided she needed to kick some ass

#wolqotd how did they survive the calamity? where were they when dalamud dropped?

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 4d

I hope so too. It's been such a nightmare with the cancer diagnosis and we still haven't seen the oncologist! (Next week)

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 4d

At the vet for Bee's health check/stitch removal.

Anxious doesn't even begin to describe it.

oh noooooooo

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 5d

Yeah, I just need to quickly add fusible interface on both sides when I get the golden rivet hammered in (ordered supplies)

Aaargh with the way last month and this month is going, it's a wonder I'm even sane

Shorts pictured with the missing strap (not sewn in yet)

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 5d

18 coins to sew on the other side of shorts

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 5d

Whoops, I forgot about that fabric strap. I guess I could still add it. Going to have to seam rip, ahhh.

Kia Purity🌸: romy,☀️♊ @kiapurity.bsky.social · 26d

Looking over the details on the shorts (there's a little strap?!) and I think I need to paint the back of that big disc since it's free hanging

This cosplay has so many details! 😱

back side, showing the chains on the shorts (there appears to be a fabric strip attached to the coin chain?)

the other side showing the strip sewn into the shorts (this should be interesting to engineer with pockets added) There's a stretched diamond detail?

Front, showing the two chains draped into one disc

Other side showing the chains draped across the hanging coins sewn onto the shorts.

reviewing costume parts:
Top (remaking in process)
shorts (done)
legs (remaking in progress)
black leg warmers (trimming in progress)
shoes (done)

what to do next: gluing/sewing 3d print parts in place, finish work on body chain, add parts to attach

-- ah, I forgot to sew in that fabric part

Listen. If you didn't want to be seen as the Twitter escape pod, you shouldn't have deliberately fostered a community of people so united by their contempt for arbitrary authority and love of absolute free speech that they were willing to abandon a platform they'd been using for 15 years
