Perhaps bringing 500 stickers to FanFest was excessive.

Third time's the /charm! Pardon our Firmament dust as we get the website updated for year 3.0 happening on October 17 & 18, 2026 back at the St. Charles Convention Center! As mentioned prior, we'll be using only the lower level this time as we find our break even point. More news to come!

11 clears later, I finally have the new hair. Special shout-out to the guy in my party earlier who afk'd for 10 minutes because he ate spicy food and didn't want to poop his pants. 🙏 #ffxiv #finalfantasyxiv

Show me your donation receipts to your local food banks (redacted as necessary) and I'll mail you one of these Perfect Groove stickers that didn't make it in time for GATEway FATE. I only have so many, but I'd rather they go to something that will help people.

If it makes you feel better, I ended up skipping lunch to be there. 😅 Definitely recommend the table box with a sign!

I feel like a boomer trying to navigate this app, but I will attempt to be more active. Seeing the FFXIV community flourishing here makes me happy. ❤️

I'm not on Bluesky much these days, but thank you to everyone who made @gatewayfate.bsky.social so special this year. Also thank you for all the love on my big green son over the weekend! This was his exclusive convention appearance, so I'm glad so many of you loved him! 💚

Some WIP for fighting type Miku. Shirt/dress is patterned already, and the shoes are almost done too. Trying to work up the courage to dye the wig. 💦

I spent a few minutes adding muted terms and marking posts I didn't like trying to prevent the algorithm here from just feeding me rage bait, but my discover feed is completely broken and won't even load now. Problem solved? 😂

For MCH I think I ordered 6 yards of the green and brown fabrics, but that was definitely a bit overkill. The black vinyl was some I had on hand already, maybe 2-3 yards if I remember right? I used a separate vinyl with stretch for the pants and socks. (Sorry for two replies, hit the limit 😂)
