to the sweet little black girl that chatted with me at Starbucks this morning just randomly commenting on the new cherry blossom cups and concluding our short convo with a lil wave and "it was so nice meeting you!" you made my entire day and I hope never dim your light for anyone.

from a first time competitor, to now guesting/judging where for that very same convention and contest. I am still very emotional 🥹

what is your favorite liquid eyeliner brand? felt tip pen preferred.

I need something that is saturated/opaque AF that can also handle being applied on top of heavy makeup/face paint.

reminder as joann begins to do their going out of business sales, aim for 60% off or more. this 20% ain’t cuttin it.
oh yeah, after @nimblenoor.bsky.social reminded me of the beauty and wonder of wawak, i started price comparing the same brands and items with joanns, and my conclusion was that joann sales generally need to be 60% or more to begin compete.

Joann’s closing post their monopoly destroying a lot of small fabric businesses across the country is gonna impact cosplayers, and sewing/crafting hobby-ists of all kinds.

But hopefully it will give a chance for new small local fabric shops to pop up as well as those shops struggling to survive…

(sigh)
I have an update on the #Joann Fabrics bankruptcy, and it is not good.

A different liquidator has won the auction, and they intend to close ALL of the stores, not just the 2/3 originally slated to close.

All stores will close by the end of May. 😞

very serendipitous that during this time of reflection on my cosplay beginnings and that first award, the offspring in his cosplay beginnings gets his first award. (we worked together to make his Static Shock cosplay.)

I'm out of neon green paint so this is a little off, but the phone always picks up weird hues anyways.

anyhow here's She Hulk.

thank you, old man, for who you were. I hope that my weeb ass still makes you proud. 🥹

Dad's been gone for almost 4 years now, but every con season it's heartwarming to look back at my very humble beginnings, and how intrinsic his support was. as a matter of fact, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have "The Great" as my moniker.

7 years ago this month I entered my very first cosplay competition. I received a Judges Choice award. my grumpy ass dad, who through much of my life was known to be very stoic and never really expressed emotions, would tell any and everyone about how his daughter was Wonder Woman.

it's great to learn, cause Knowledge Is Power!

oh how ten year old Diana is living for this sticker design.

there's so many notifications the app isn't even bothering to send them anymore cause of all the rapid likes and reposts.

I promise I am just a weeb here for shits and giggles I did not expect our MC of RIP to make rounds like this.

y'all really are awesome 🥹
