I ended up in a different costume each of the last 3 days of October.
Rainbow Dash for the company Halloween photo.
Lamb Cultist for Hexcore Nights
Ryder from Paw Patrol for trick or treating.

After how fun and weird a con is, going back to normal life can be a downer. I'm very lucky that my home and job have a touch of fun and weird to make the transition less harsh.

With everything going on I needed to do something cathartic, and really wanted to try a WWII-style poster with Sheena.

I really love old poster graphics from that time period and figured it was a fitting theme!

My youngest just turned 5. I made him a cloak as a gift and I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Let's talk about Amatonormativity! It's a big word, but it's important thing to learn about, in a similar class with "heteronormativity" (which I believe is where the word got its origin).
A comic page with an Aromantic Pride fox at the upper right, with the speech bubble "Let's talk about AMATONORMATIVITY" Text continues outside the speech bubble: "Amatonormativity is the set of societal assumptions that everyone prospers with a monogamous, romantic, & sexual relationship." 6 panels in different colors follow. The blue box features a blue fox going, "Oh, you haven't found the one...yet." The purple box features an older purple fox saying, "So, when are you going to settle down and have kids?" The yellow box features a yellow fox saying, "Aren't you lonely?" The teal box features two baby foxes, one teal, one purple, with the text, "Aww, how cute! They're gonna grow up and have a family!" The red box features a red fox and a black fox with the text, "Clearly it's more than a friendship." The red fox is rolling their eyes and the black fox looks annoyed. The final box features an indigo fox who is saying "Don't you want to get married?" "Amatonormativity is pretty common in fandom circles: shipping, as a concept, is usually extremely amatonormative, applying romantic & sexual aspects to pairings of characters." In a white bubble: "It is not limited to heterosexual relationships." Next to the bubble, a fox in a deerstalker cap and scarf is next to a fox in a bowler who is taking notes. "The concept that two characters who are close must be *in love in a romantic way* is extremely common." A group of foxes: the green aromantic pride fox, a black asexual pride fox (with a "?" in a bubble over their head), and a blue polyamorous pride fox, sit next to a box with the text, "It also makes asexual, aromantic, and polyamorous folks & relationships seem less valid." "LOVE IS NOT LIMITED TO ROMANCE & SEX." "Platonic friends can be close, if not closer, than a marriage. Amatonormativity limits the acceptance of that." A panel of a red paw on a black chest, with the text to the left, "You can give your whole heart platonically. It is not limited to romance." A panel of a yellow fox with a speech bubble of a broken heart with the text to the right, "You can also have your heart broken platonically! (Friend breakups are *the worst* and no one ever talks about them!)" A panel with a pile of paperwork marked Taxes, two wedding rings, a passport, and health insurance cards, with the text to the left, "You can also get married for reasons other than romantic love, but that's a whole other thing!" A heart bubble with a yellow and blue fox in it, with the text to the left, "This doesn't mean you should stop enjoying romance and marriage between couples, especially in fiction!" The aromantic pride fox reappears, saying, "But remember love is vast & unlimited, and can apply to situations that are not romantic or familial." A sad aroace pride fox sits next to the test, "(And sometimes talking about love in only a romantic or familial sense can make people feel left out!)" Another heart bubble, featuring asexual, polyamorous, aromatic, and white foxes surrounding their friend the aroace fox with lots of love, next to the text, "Be sure to tell your friends you love them!" "THANKS FOR READING!"

Went to Lowes today and found evidence that someone had a bad time there earlier.
Dried paint spill in a parking lot with a trail of paint tire tracks leading away.
