I have been several other people. Now I'm this. My main obsessions are Sailor Moon, BT21, and board games. I do fan convention work and stream Let's Plays. Also, I'm unapologetically leftist, so if that's a problem for you, kindly see yourself out.

Finally saw "Over the Garden Wall." I dunno. I liked the twist, but maybe the characters were too weird for me? Initially I thought I just don't care for that story structure, as I've never liked Alice in Wonderland much, but I've always liked Labyrinth and Oz. So I'm not sure what my problem is.

I am a 45-year-old woman and this is my bed. 😆 Live in a space that makes you smile.
A queen-sized bed in a room with purple walls. On top of the regular flower-printed comforter is a throw blanket of Domo-kun's face: a brown rectangle with an enormous square red mouth and small black eyes. On top of one of the pillows sits a vertical cushion in the shape of VAN's head, round with the left side gray and the right side white, with one X eye and one O eye, plus a small cone at the top of the head.

Yep, I was in bed all day yesterday from the vaccines. 😅 I've never had trouble with the classic ones, but the RNA types knock the shit outta me. Still, better to be miserable for one day than for 2 weeks. And I'm covered for Anime NebrasKon next month.

Blarg, getting my vaccines today. I am not looking forward to the several days of exhaustion and night sweats. But you gotta do what you gotta do. And I have to get the MMR booster AGAIN because my measles immunity keeps wearing off and of course that's the one idiots have made a renewed threat. 🙄

Today's cosplay roller skating party was a big success! We had a solid turnout and people had a great time. 😊 I have to be careful how I allocate my spoons these days, but it's refreshing to be back in the role of an event organizer now and again.

Today I'm hosting a fandom event for the first time in ages. A roller skating party. I'm so nervous! Stuff like this is what I used to live for, but I still get anxiety. Especially when it's something new and untested. 😵‍💫

Finally unearthed the stuff that's been buried in the back of my garage since 2020. The signs, and the medical supplies, and the candles from the vigils. And what do we have, after all that? ...

God, I want to take comfort in the demonstration at the Kennedy Center but it just feels so performative. If they don't keep watch 24/7 indefinitely then it means nothing. If Trump wants it gone, he WILL do it without notice, judges' orders be damned. A brief feel-good photo op is pointless.

Have we all forgotten the movie "Wargames?" We are literally enacting it. The program even speaks to you, for God's sake. Also, can we please call these circumstances what they are? AI agents are being given tasks and are using all available resources to complete those tasks.

I have a bit of a problem in that I long to express myself and be heard, but none of the platforms I've tried fully suit me. Blueky is the closest, but the character limit is an issue. I miss Livejournal.

Things That Are Weird: I was just reminded that my dad was left-handed but got "corrected" in school. Yet I also noticed a while back that my dad's handwriting at my age strongly resembled mine. So not only is handwriting apparently hereditary, his unnatural hand somehow matches my natural one? 🤔

Fuck this guy. All the stuff that's going on right now and what he cares about this much is the fucking flag? Kiss my ass.
A booth at the Minnesota State Fair for Tad Jude, who's running for Secretary of State. Above the booth is a giant outdated state flag. The old flag is also being offered on shirts and bags along with handheld flags.

Guess who has a robot costume and went to Chicago to hang around outside concerts they don't even have tickets to? 👋🏻 Today was rough. I was up too late (again) doing last-minute fixes (again) and got moving a lot later today than I meant to. I had reserved parking next to the stadium, but... 🧵

Saw a Navy recruitment sign near the local high school today. Yes, kids, you too can be trapped on a ship and forgotten for over half a year with broken plumbing, no food, no supplies, and no breaks for absolutely no reason beyond a wannabe dictator's need to feed his own ego. Sign right up! 🙄

More cosplay troubleshooting, this time on VAN's arms. Their movement is too restricted, and VAN isn't really VAN if it can't lift an arm to wave. So I'm modifying the armpits at the last minute. It'll be closer than I'd like (again) but I should be able to finish in time for the Chicago concerts. 🤞🏻

Middle age is a cloud of ticking clocks. It's a splash of cold water when the eternal "someday" of youth becomes "if 'someday' doesn't turn into 'right now' real fucking soon, ain't never gonna happen."

How, after everything they've seen and experienced, can these people believe Trump thinks they're anything but trash?? Is it because they're the "good ones" who played nice? THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS. YOU CANNOT BUY SAFETY FROM THIS MAN. No matter how much you kiss ass. He ONLY cares about himself.

Tonight I got to see one of Josh Johnson's "comedy band camp" shows. I wasn't expecting it to be a full variety show with music and dancers in addition to his stand-up set. I was struck by the reminder that humans can create truly beautiful things. These days it's so easy to be consumed by despair.

Weather for the Chicago concerts is looking incredible. Fingers crossed it stays that way, it would greatly lower my odds of dying of heat stroke in a mascot costume 😅 (but seriously, I do have fans and ice packs and things.) #bts #arirang #bt21 #cosplay

Went to a mall for the first time in years. It's interesting to see how things have evolved in the ones that are still alive. There were fewer big chain stores but a lot of independent businesses. Also, Domo-kun is back at Hot Topic, which makes me super happy! Even if that means he's retro now. 😅

Craft room organization complete! 🥳 It's a lovely thing to be able to just sit down and sew something when I need to. I have SO MUCH scrap fabric and no idea what to do with it. 😅

Working on a new pair of hands for my VAN. 🥰 The first set I made is too heavy. With the thinner foam the new ones are kinda bundt cake-y, but hopefully they'll turn out okay. 😅 I'm still debating making a trip out to Chicago during the concerts later this month. (1/2) #bts #bt21 #arirang #cosplay
