I'm realizing that I never really posted an intro so! Hi, I'm Ben (they/them) and I'm a cosplayer/photographer living in NYC! Always on the lookout for new friends and collaborators :D

#Cosplay #GenshinImpact #BNHA #KimPossible #TrigunStampede #VashTheStampede #Zhongli #DenkiKaminari #Shego #Anime

Ben (username: kaminaricos) sitting on a large rock They are dressed as Zhongli from Genshin Impact, in his Morax outfit. The trees in the background are covered in orange leaves, and there is a large waterfall flowing over a black wall in the background as well.

Ben (username: kaminaricos) dressed as Denki Kaminari. They are wearing a black sleeveless turtleneck and a necklace made from plastic beads. The "pendant" on the necklace is a Pikachu sprite made from perler beads. They are holding the pendant between their teeth and staring absentmindedly into the distance.

The background is the roof of a parking garage at sunset, cast in various hues of yellow and orange.

Ben (username: kaminaricos) cosplaying as Shego from Kim Possible. They are wearing a black and green bodysuit and looking off-camera to the right. The background is a plain wall colored by green and blue LED lights.

Ben (username: kaminaricos) dressed as Vash the Stampede from Trigun Stampede (2023). They are facing the camera, giving a peace sign with their right hand. That hand is clad in a partially fingerless glove, with the thumb, pointer, and pinky fingers not being covered. Their other hand is at their side, wearing a prop to make it look like Vash's green-blue mechanical arm from the show. Their outfit is a long red jacket over a black turtleneck and black jeans.

Hey you! If you're going to #NYCC I would love to take your photo! I'll be offering free cosplay portraits on my 1950s medium-format film camera on Saturday, until I run out of film! Keep an eye on my IG story (@bej_photo) to see where I'm setting up shop.

#NewYorkComicCon #Cosplay #Photography

Dark blue text on a light blue background that reads "Free Cosplay Portrats at New York Comic Con. Come get your photo taken on a film camera from the 1950s!". Smaller white text at the bottom reads "First come, first served while supplies last. See description for details"

Gotta go FAST!!!

@timesartisan.bsky.social got my Sonic pics from AB back to me last night and I am BLOWN. AWAY. She did such an amazing job at making me look fast!!!!

#Cosplay #SonicTheHedgehog #SonicCosplay #Sonic #AnimeBoston

A person stands in the center of the frame, clad in a blue jumpsuit with a checkerboard stripe down the side and red accents on the shoulders. The front of the jumpsuit is emblazoned with “Sonic the Hedgehog”. They are wearing a spiky blue wig, black and blue fingerless gloves, and blue and white faux fur ears. There is a streaky blur behind them, making them look like they are moving incredibly fast.

Currently realizing I cosplay so many blondes. And I have a few more planned.

haha, ben. @kaminaricos.bsky.social · 13d

I’ve used it as a commissioner and it definitely makes the whole process smoother. Having a searchable “marketplace” of artists is nice too - I’ve found a number of people I wouldn’t have otherwise known existed!

haha, ben. @kaminaricos.bsky.social · 13d

Rosalina is a cosplay I’ve talked abt doing but idk her dress is just kinda. Uninspiring? Once I learn how to sew I’d love to make it out of some fun sparkly fabrics and add details tho

I need to get like. A fun dress that can go spinny. For gender reasons or something. Maybe one I can use for cosplay too

Stuff like this is how we got "pewpew," "unalive," and junk into modern vernacular. Don't let a service or platform take your words from you!

I just saw some people talking about the bsky censorship situation and censoring the word rape. DON'T do that here. People who avoid the subject can mute this word, and using words like "r4p3, 🍇" or whatever is not helping anyone. Why do people do that??

Namecalling is immature and useless as discourse. I fully agree with a ban for calling anyone a bitch.

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level

but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

River_Tam @rivertam.bsky.social · 20d

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

Just don't post. Don't feel the need to weigh in on every issue all the time. Sometimes other people have said it better. Don't force yourself to chase trends, news, events, drama, and definitely don't feel like you have to be involved in everything that happens.
