I am definitely planning on doing another 30 days of cosplay before the year is up, for traditions sake even though I have been on hiatus most of this year 🫶

Here’s my go at the last four years 💃🏻

My uber driver somehow took the most scenic but also faster route home I’ve ever seen so I’ve literally sent my husband a screenshot so we can always have a nice drive home 🤣🫶

Made curry, added in some habaneros. Thought I washed my hands thoroughly enough, but I thought wrong, because just did my bedtime skincare and my skin is warm 🫩🤣

Oh it could be because when an account is deactivated, if someone is clearing out followers it lets them sift through the deactivated first, I clicked onto mine and it groups them up in one

It’s so warm today and I think I just burnt out from work this week because I just want to nap 🤣

(Painted side will always get “feathers” but it was just to make sure no cardboard shows through. I didn’t preplan the process i just… started cracking on 🤣)

🧐 started as a quick thing I was just going to rush push together, but now I’m invested in making konan’s paper wings

I’m sorry but let me unbury this lede: *the genAI industry is literally the financial engine that is powering the fascist regime in the United States*

I hadn’t even made this connection and now I’m even more horrified by this tech than I have ever been.

Boosterism == fascism, literally

I take a huge water bottle to work to encourage myself to drink more- and it works if I’m at the desk. But I’m usually not and it’s that pinch too big to carry around, so I am fully just feeling sorry for myself for the mini dehydration headache I’ve got going on

I thought the cat distribution system had finally picked me… turns out, it had not. I had no idea how similar possums and cats look from behind 🫡🫡🫡

The tomatoes especially are so good!!! The peppers have been growing a lil too much and too fast for us so I’ve been sharing them with people more than cooking with them. But they’re going in a curry today 🫶🫶🫶

Cosplay alterations for our well-being!

There are many ways that people alter their cosplays to ensure they stay comfortable and safe. These are just a few that come up for me. I think this is an important topic to talk about— what are some ways that you alter your cosplays?

#cosplay #cosplayer

Cosplay can be uncomfortable, often because the characters were trying to embody AREN’T REAL. But as real people, our safety and confidence matter and don’t need to be compromised to enjoy our hobby.

As a trans person, alterations can help alleviate dysphoria and break limitations on how you are able to be in your body.

Before chest surgery, for me, this meant extending fabric for tops and scarfs so my chest could be bound and covered.

Body image is something many of us struggle with, myself included!

Cosplaying a character with an exposed tummy but aren’t feeling it? Using self-cling tape or a wide sash around your midsection is a great and in-universe addition!

Oooooo this is such a pretty shot!!!

Sooz 🎀 Bitingbows @bitingbows.bsky.social · Aug 12

Oh luckily most of them you can tap out of and they can play in the background, so as long as no other sound interrupts I can just have it in the background on quiet! But some need active clicks even if you have the auto play on.

I wish ASMR things didn’t make me so uncomfortable 😅 I want to get my gems from listening to the Tender Moments in LaDS but my face is just like 🫩 the entire time loool. I otherwise really enjoy the game 💃🏻

Called off bc I’m exhausted. I was sick for all my days off which was frustrating but usually I can just push on, but I’m just drained with a headache bc I haven’t slept fully in 3 days so I’m trying not to feel guilty about catching up on rest
