Manifesting that "The Fangirl Diaries" will get that Hugo nomination next Tuesday. So I'm sharing this image of Tomino wearing Mickey Mouse ears from World Con 1984 in Anaheim.

Happy Birthday Sailor Mars!

Looking at the latest from the animation house of Ricky Ratt, I have a theory why the mc was changed from boy to a girl and has a Filipino femme cast in it... They're afraid of the other studio with a certain island movie coming out. Let's see how this plays out.

Celebrate Indie Bookstore Day on April 25! If you're in SoCal, you can get my book, "The Fangirl Diaries" at Black Cat Fables, Underdog Bookstores, and Untold Story. However! Let your local indie bookstore know about my book too! Let's support small businesses!

Forgot I had this photo of Hiro Yuki and I at Japan Expo 2002 (Los Angeles). He played Michel in 8th MS Team and Dios in Utena,

“Be my NY when Hollywood hates me.” Hits really hard right now.

Why are we bringing back anti-LGBTQ slurs in LGBTQ spaces? I saw a ribbon at Sakura Con that had a slur and a LGBTQ entertainment news website that used “(slur)cent” to describe LGBTQ speech (though the typical high pitched masc lisp is not a blanket statement for how we talk..). Just a tired DemiBi

There's discourse on book threads about an "artist" claiming to work for the big 5 publishing groups and using GenAI to create covers. The scary part of of the discourse? There's been mobs to name and shame the author (not the "artist" / publisher). (cont)

It was so amazing to make our Seattle kaigai idol debut with @angelheartsidols.bsky.social at Sakura Con! Loved performing for our PNW fans! Let’s do this again next year ! ♥️🪽

Sakurumble was the end of Litten’s storyline and the beginning of Torracat’s. I’ve learned so much in the last two years and I’m really stoked to keep learning and improving. I wanna win the heavyweight championship at some point, but I feel like that is still a distant goal.

"There are grants!" "There are sponsorships!" Please don't vague answer like this to autistic folks who are seeking support in creativity. We need specifics. Direct links. Names. Organizations. Not knowing where is an insta-meltdown/crashout.

It’s 2026 Maybe we shouldn’t put LGBTQ slurs on ribbon badges…

Watching boys love at Sakura Con!

Like a lot of people, I've had NASA's Artemis II stream playing in the background today, and I cannot stop thinking about HIM

Yeah, when the time is right, I think I found my next cosplay…

CYGAMES HAS FORCED BANDAI SCAMCO TO DO THE IMPOSSIBLE

you ever think about how probably the single biggest impact iDOLM@STER ever made to the English language internet is this fanart of Nono Morikubo hiding from a Terminator that became a meme for a while (presented in the level of jpeg it has achieved from being saved and reposted constantly)

Idolmaster English release in 2026...? And it's not $50?! WHAT! Um....which 765 girl am I again? lol

Eagerly awaiting the thousands of video essays and think pieces about how Rayearth "deconstructs the magical girl genre" when it's straight-up peak '90s shoujo.

Less than 24 hours to go!!! If you are a @laworldcon.bsky.social member, nominate me for the Hugo’s!!!!

Before there were hockey sticks, there were paddles. Yaoi Paddles.

Re: The whole masquerade discourse - in color!

Ooh...boy... The latest cosplay contest discourse. Masquerades will always be a part of the community. I would rather see a live performance. To each their own, but dismissing an entire community built on love for fandom and creativity is elitist BS that I don't need.

It makes me happy when people are sharing that they’re enjoying my book! And remember, nominate my book for Best Related Work for this year’s Hugo Awards at @laworldcon.bsky.social ! Let’s get local authors on the ballot!!!

Two things can be true. Yes, you can be for police accountability and also be WTF with afroman's transphobic content.

You got the email, World Con friends! Nominate "The Fangirl Diaries" for Best Related Work for this year's Hugo's! And remember, to be cringe is to be free!!!

Yup, it's the Fujo Fandom all over again circa 00's-ish. Book girlies will be like...ooh...gay hockey. Let's go to the boy aquarium. And then be like, "eww...Regency Lesbians in empire waist dresses and their promenades!" Yup...

I'm receiving reports from airports all over the country about ICE sightings. I'll be sharing updates here as I get them. ⬇️

"It should be Larry Day!" "It should be Dolores Day!" Y'all...both were amazing people. Both can be honored. There's plenty of schools, parks, streets, murals etc out there that can bear their honor.

Hey all! Nico's monthly vet bill is due tomorrow. Also! We're close to meeting 25% of of vet bill goal. We need about $200. If a miracle can happen, would appreciate it! www.gofundme.com/manage/suppo...

Hey all! My bill is due on Saturday! Help appreciated! We were able to get $20 so far!

One of my fav authors from childhood! I'd sneak out of PE to read his books in the chapel...

Spicy cosplay take: I prefer to call it "craftsmanship judging" over "pre-judging."

Happy 3/16 from my MMC of my WIP!

Anime Hot Take "But it was like that in the manga!" Just because it was in the original text, doesn't mean it was good.

“We got the good stuff at home.” The good stuff: youtu.be/zoDUxs3rlRU?...

Let's get that Hugo! "The Fangirl Diaries" is the first book of it's kind to talk about the millennial experience and anime fandom. Let's bring anime, girlhood, and cringe to @laworldcon.bsky.social ! Because to be cringe is to be free! If you have World Con membership - nominate me! ^_^

Looks like I'm going back to Universal!

One of my readers DM'ed me to tell me they would love to have me sign their copy of "The Fangirl Diaries" at Sakura Con. Their copy just came in today! It's moments like this that make me proud to be a published author.

Interesting how many giant VTubers are also giant racists and transphobes, yet very few giant VTubers are trans, non-white... Interesting indeed... 1st post was deleted (probably due to clapback) but the repost bitching about trans women is still up... #trans #translivesmatter #terf #vtuber

It's time to boot up your Commodore Amiga. We're making fansubs on tape.

Cosplay Senpai’s do not stand with fascism. Period.

Fansview Fridays: Nan Desu Kan 2001 This convention happened days after 9/11. In this 30 minute retrospective from Kevin Lillard, he brings us a time capsule of fandom. He would also attend AWA that same weekend. Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEyK...
