Choosing to monetise your hobbies is one thing and being forced to commodify yourself and every part of your life is another. Personally I don’t want to be a brand, I want to be a human and an artist.

I've really been itching to get back to work on a super detailed costume... I think once the workshop's revamped it'll finally be time! (In 2027, I think it'll be time to do another fancy Lelouch...) 📸 = @stargirlpictures.bsky.social 💖 #cosplay #codegeass

hi, i'm an audhd enby lesbian with asthma. my asthma has been acting up and i struggle to form full sentences. it hurts to breathe. i work 2 jobs and have to call out of one to meet a deadline. please help so i can afford rent. any bit helps. #mutualaid #actuallyautistic ko-fi.com/skywardstruck

i know self-deprecation is cool but you have to be your art's biggest fan. you have to love and cherish and champion your art and talk about how wonderful it is. if even you don't believe in it, why should anyone else?

For @unwinnable.com's AI issue, I wrote about a thing that keeps happening to me where people insist I’m not allowed to have morals— or at least, not allowed to exercise them. When so many companies have said yes to AI, who decided we can't say no? unwinnable.com/2025/05/02/s...

After Two years I finally wore Purah!! I tried to do the best I can to bring her to life. I made her in hopes to enter her into a comp one day. I don’t love rushing my art so I’m glad she took as long as she did, even tho it was an emotional roller coaster. 😭 🌿 Everything was made by me. #zelda

I heard that Fire Emblem The Sacred Stones is now on the Switch Online! Sacred Stones is another favorite FE game mine! I cosplayed Eirika from it! 📸 @stargirlpictures.bsky.social Eirika cosplay made by me!

💫⭐️💫 . I love a clear sky to play with 🩵 Featuring @lostlittlerabbit on the frozen beach of the Gaylord! It was so nice out that day. #arkknights #magfest #cosplayphotography

In order to deal with general malaise, I'm making irresponsible amount of pasta

hello tabletop friends, if you have a spare CRIT nomination for best makeup/cosplay, i would love if you considered my signet cosplay. it was a two year labor of love for my favorite actual play and i am so proud of it. photos from @final-egirl.bsky.social nominate: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Here's a throwback a lovely photoshoot I did with @stargirlpictures.bsky.social awhile back. Go show her some love. I always had fun working with her, and looking back at these photos made me feel cute. Love, Peach 🩷 📸 by @stargirlpictures.bsky.social #princesspeach #princesspeachcosplay

if the united states ever has even a hope of recovering we have to destroy the idea of american individualism. "they don't owe you anything" we owe each other everything actually

April 1st is probably a bad day to post this, but my next con will be @otakuoasiscon

❝I am your partner… no more, no less. A sharer of gifts… Annatar.❞ I realized I haven't shared this photo of my Annatar cosplay yet! He's so smug and delightful here... ✨would you forge Rings of Power with him? 💍 📸: @stargirlpictures.bsky.social #annatar #silmarillion #silvergifting #tolkien

MORE CURE PRISM. This time outside! Can’t wait for Kimi To Idol Precure!! 📸 @circuitrewind.com

Katsu folks, I will once again have my Canon Sure Shot with a few rolls of film ready to capture Cursed Images--if you are up to hijinks and want some nasty flash pictures, I *will* come and take them, it's my favorite thing to do at cons

and there was only one chair…

Just cause it’s been on my mind a lot lately: you do not have to wait for a big special cosplay to have a photoshoot. There is this weird pressure that your cosplay must be “good enough” to be photographed. This is simply just not true.

So glad I got the Pokémon autism and not the nazi autism
