This might be a weird take, but I think self-care is an important part of being Eco-friendly. Let's use my Ewok #cosplay as an example. I wanted to wear it, with all of its fuzzy bra silliness, to an early spring con. I knew I would be chilly, so I made a shawl that fit the vibe of the cosplay. ⬇️

Omg Lady Gaga up-cycled her own wardrobe for the Abracadabra music video??? I mean among other environmental sustainable things. But that's so neat! Reference below ⬇️

So I finally watched the Abracadabra music video and that primal scream in the middle must've hit something in me because why am I crying?

This #BlackHistoryMonth I had the incredible honor of interviewing the founder of #28DaysOfBlackCosplay to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the movement: www.crunchyroll.com/news/intervi...
A Black woman in Carnival features on a black background with orange around it. The words "Meet the creator of #28daysofBlackCosplay Chaka Cumberbatch" are above her picture.

A Week In Progress 2025 #4: Jan 23-29 — Dewfeathers Cosplay and Dance

🧵1/3 My current big #cosplay build will be mostly second hand materials or stuff I already had in my stash. Fabric sources: estate sale, pants that didn't fit me, FB marketplace destash sale. I have also purchased new materials for this cosplay: wigs, nylon glove, decorative cording, etc.

I think this is one of the most important things I've read in the last 24 hours. "Do the next right thing. Don't try to do all of your activism all at once. Focus on your specialty." My blog is, at its core, anti-capitalist. It's worth it to keep going.

Another step away from fast fashion in cosplay is to make your cosplays -last-. Line that cosplay, finish that seam, reinforce that stress point. Make them ✨️DURABLE✨️ and you'll have costumes you can wear for years.

I'll go first. My favorite from last year was my Korok and Dryad cosplays. I used almost all recycled and 2nd hand materials for the main costume, AND I can get 2 different looks out of it with just a few changed accessories. I can't wait to add more to it! (1st photo by Z, 2nd photo by @gormasmus)

Mark Zuckerberg scrapped fact-checking from Meta platforms. He's also added Trump ally Dana White to Meta's board and is helping fund his inauguration. Why is Zuckerberg kissing Trump's ring? Perhaps it's because of the FTC's antitrust lawsuit against Meta. Follow the money.

Last year I filmed a performance for a belly dance nutcracker show and then never posted anything about it 😅 Well I'm finally working on a blog post about it, so here are a couple of images I found yesterday!
Dewfeathers sitting on a teal bed laughing while two dogs sit on her lap barking and being silly. She is sitting in front of white curtains and an end table with a Christmas candle and flower headband are off to the right.Dewfeathers dancing in a room with white curtains behind her. She is wearing a blue and purple bra top, a bright purple floral headband, and a lot of dangling gold jewelry. The focal point is a brightly patterned blue 30 yard skirt that she wearing and twirling with her hand so the fabric billows out.A screenshot of a "fade-in" transition from a dance music video. There is a soft floral border  around the edge of the video, and two slightly transparent images of Dewfeathers in different outfits can be seen in the center of the image.

In one image she is wearing a blue and purple floral iris inspired outfit, and in the other she is wearing a red and green poinsettia inspired outfit. Both images seem to be Dewfeathers in the process of twirling in a circle.Dewfeathers dancing in a purple dress with a green weighed silk veil. She is spinning the veil on her right side (left for viewer), so it is a large swoosh of silk next to her.

There are white curtains behind her, and a pink and green floral boarder framing the picture.
