Resist harmful narratives

Recognize when narratives that might promote crash diets or fatphobic/transphobic ideas about matching a character’s size bubble up in discourse. These things can be so normalized they go unnoticed— so calling them what they are is important.

Alter your cosplays

Don’t like how a cosplay design exposes part of your body or hugs places you don’t want hugged? Change it! Altering cosplay designs so they fit your body/comfort better is a great way to feel more at ease.

Online isn’t reality

If you’re comparing yourself to what others post online. Don’t. Through angles, the right pose and editing/retouching people present their curated best online. No shade, we all do it, but know that what you’re seeing isn’t anyone’s normal.

US passports didn’t even have gender markers until the 70’s. The utility of them as a marker is negligible since name/birthdate and nationality are more than sufficient to identify a person. Gender is a VERY poor identifier especially since no one is fucking naked in a customs lineup.

Loved all the topiary around the park! Really cool touches 🥰

Thank you!! 🥰

Omg I was just talking about wanting to go! It looks really cool from videos I’ve seen

Beautiful work 😭
