It's extremely depressing that anime went from a more obscure medium to front and center mainstream during my lifetime, but this translated to the medium transitioning from "for fans by fans" to pure exploitative capitalism with us as the captive audience

My favorite part of the writing process is coming up with characters! I love the character creation part of storytelling. I also love making playlists for each character and mood boards for them!

I'm currently reading two books right now.
I'm wrapping up Aeon Flux by Ava Thorne. It's a steamy cyberpunk novel. I love the world building!
I just started reading an ARC of Depressed in the Dealer's Hall by Ellie Celine Labampda because I love geeky reads!

While I do not have character art yet, mood boards and pinterest boards are fun to collect! I wanted to capture Y2K pastels, mix in J-pop vibes with what was going on with pop in the late 90s / early 00s. I wanted to capture sounds and scents.

Here's one of my Girlypop 2000 project:

Forget new series that never get legal streams, what about all of the old series that are impossible to find? Chris and Lucas discuss some really buried treasure.

Back in my day, sharing con reports, convention photos, etc was not considered "self promo" or "spam." People were happy to see each other's memories, photos taken of themselves and friends.

I miss the world when we were excited to see our photos online.

"How was Kumori Con?"

For a convention that is mostly popular with Gen Z's, is there a place left for people born in the late 1900s?

Tune into the latest episode of Convention Tea to find out!
Why yes, I'm still tired from my back to back PNW tour!

I was at a con last weekend and saw someone with a tattoo - "Lolita is dead. Dolores lives."

As a CSA survivor, I wanted to cry.

Present day, present time.
Dating someone who just downloaded Uma Musume because I talked about cosplaying from it and our mutual friends are super into it. "It's like Princess Maker 2 but horses."

I'm in a good place.

A few years ago, I gifted a then-partner at the time a collectors edition of critically acclaimed FFXIV including all expansion packs up to Endwalker.
He tried and got frustrated despite the fact he had friends who can help adjust accessibility settings. He never touched it since. (cont)
