Well, been on BSky for about a year, but with all these new followers & users, I will reintroduce myself!

I'm Jess! Also known as JWo (Jay-Woah) & I'm over 35 yrs old & a non binary Chinese American born & raised in Mississippi!

Been sewing since I was 4 yrs old. Cosplaying since 2005.

#promosky

JWo cosplaying as Level 10 outfit Veth Brenatto from the Dungeons & Dragons show, Critical Role. They are holding a brown, wooden toy crossbow pointed at the camera. They are wearing a dark brown, French braided wig with a brown, braided leather headband. They have thick, dark brown eyebrows and turquoise, intricate makeup drawn around their eyes with dark mauve lipstick. They are wearing a dark brown, tan sherpa lined vest over a sunflower yellow sleeveless dress dotted with gold, metallic triangles all over the dress. A dark brown leather pouch with a silver turnlock hangs from a leather holster holding small corked topped potion holder with 5 potions each a different color, red, pink, yellow, green, & blue. A gold magnifying glass also hangs behind the brown pouch. On their left forearm is a bracer adorned with many multicolored buttons. The background is slightly out of focus with the side of an ivory stone church with arched windows & the ground covered in fallen, dried leaves, and part of a tree trunk.

JWo coaplaying as Veth Brenatto from Campaign 2 of Critical Role, The Mighty Nein. They are wearing the winter outfit from the Aeor arc. They are in a baby pink lolita wool cape with ivory fur collar. There are also ivory fur cuffs on their sleeve cuffs. On their head is ivory colored fur earmuffs with small deer antlers mounted onto the earmuffs. There is also a dark brown braided leather headband around their forehead. They are wearing a dark brown wig with double braided pigtails wrapped with turquoise & gold holders near the ends of the pigtails. There is an intricate turquoise makeup design around each eye and dark mauve lipstick on their lips. In their left gloved hand, they are holding a small brown & gold wooden crossbow. The background is white & snowy with a bleak sky with dark trees in the distance.

JWo cosplaying level 10 Nott the Brave, a goblin character from Campaign 2 of Critical Role, The Mighty Nein. They are wearing a dark green wig with 2 braided pigtails with a yellow and light blue flower crown. Their skin is a shade of dark sage green with green pointed ears and hands. Around their neck are 2 different necklaces, one is made of green pearls and long white faux bone tube beads. The other necklace is a cluster of multicolored buttons. They are wearing a dark brown leather jacket over a sunflower yellow dress with metallic gold triangles dotted all over the dress with brown buttons. They are cradling a gigantic silver steel rectangular flask with a small green donut stick on the side in their arms.

JWo is cosplaying a moon godlike character from the Obsidian's game, Pillars of Eternity. They are wearing a white, thick texture wig braided in one large braid tied with a strap of brown leather. On their head above their forehead is a white crescent shaped horn. Their skin is painted a blueish grey shade with metallic silver large freckles on their cheeks with white eyebrows and whiteout contact lenses. They are wearing a large, long red velvet hooded cloak. Part of the hood is draped over their head. They are wearing a light blue tunic with brown lace-up panel at the chest. They are wearing black leather gloves and holding a black leatherbound and silver spellbook with various silver runes and sigils on the cover. They are posed in such a way that invokes they're casting a spell at the viewer.

This is not a high thought. I am 100% sober.

So what if that livestreamer who gave birth live on Twitch had the last name "Scribe" and they named their kid with the first name "Liken" and middle name "Sub"

A buttonhole gauge is great for determining grommet spacing when making corset or stays!

120 dollars is asking for a lot for a jacket and some patches that would set you back maybe half that all together.

James' jacket is an M65, btw. you can buy it from an army surplus store for like 40-50 bucks.

This was $16.99 BEFORE the Prime Deal Sale!!! Lying ass hoes

Screenshot of an Amazon listing for a K-Pop Demon Hunters t-shirt that says "Rujinu" in purple handwritten swirly font with fanart of Rumi riding on Jinu's back and Jinu has wings for arms. There is a large purple & pink heart behind them. There are expressions of joy on their faces.

gee I wonder why more cosplayers don’t start learning how to make their own costumes as a default when decent fabrics in the USA cost like $15/yd and yet you can buy a crappy but wearable sweatshop version of most popular characters for like $50-70 on amazon dot com

Prisoners with jobs in Maine are doing remote IT work and developing skills that will allow them to be employed after their incarceration ends. The program apparently has a very high job placement rate. #technology #IT #prisonreform

I would say to tell people who use AI willy-nilly to make "fun" photos that they're basically displacing wildlife & harming humans that live by the processing plants, but I don't think people who use AI care about others besides themselves.
