In other words, us s can text questions to Jesus and get a response. (Premium users can also converse with Satan.)

Hi! I'm Sol, I've been cosplaying since 2013!
I love cosplaying dramatic-ass characters and just exploring the different mediums that can be used for creating cool things!

I work very slowly because I' a huge perfectionist, but I usually have my next project on the go

🌘 Witch Wei here! 🌕

💙 Cosplayer since 2008. I cosplay characters I like especially if the design is to my liking (weak for Chinese/Asian aesthetics.)

💙 Love to draw (on a long hiatus due to IRL stuff), cook, play games. I just repost stuff.

I'm Ryn.

I make costumes, then wear them to a con and get overstimulated. Need to be bullied into working on stuff again.

I post whatever on my account, so be aware of that, but I do like meeting other crafters!

Cosplaying in a body: Lets talk about it

In a hobby like cosplay, because our bodies are very much the canvas for our art, body stuff can pop up often. Dysphoria, discomfort, struggles with confidence… you aren’t alone in any of it.

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.

If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.
