Learning from other cosplayers : One of the coolest things about cosplay community is the way we share information, tutorials, tips and tricks. #cosplay #cosplayer #cosplayetiquette #convention #animeconvention

As I keep saying about folks trying to defend supporting JK Rowling through Harry Potter: "Fucking Skill Issue." So many of us in the anime and manga fandom dropped Rurouni Kenshin like it was hot garbage when it came out that the creator was a pedophile, and that was 100% formative for many of us.

The squishy grumpface is making me laugh. I dared move while she was napping.

"Fools."

"Fools."

Remember that striking Starbucks workers are asking you not to buy Starbucks right now

This. If you have ADHD and have trouble getting to sleep, try drinking a stimulant like coffee before bed. The idea is you stimulate the brain out of deficit, so instead of it trying to manufacture dopamine, it can rest.

The cutest girls are, as expected, the main climbers in the household. Forgot to bring one of the machine screws with me to find duplicates for the other hexagon shelf, so work is stalled until tomorrow.

We're about 2/3rds done with this. I can't find the bolts for the other hex shelf, so it's in pieces nearby, but the main shelf has been stained and mounted, and one route up and down set up.

Since I have a lot of cosplay and sewist friends here... I could use some sanity checking on something not cosplay related. Cat shows use standard sized shelters at the benches where cats go between rings. The most common is from Sturdi. The single is the footprint for all others (double triple).

If you are making costumes specifically my most recommended book is the Costume Technicians handbook. lt looks like it is out of print but I did find it on used sites or on the internet archive www.thriftbooks.com/w/the-costum...

If you are looking into learning how to sew or just always find you go to the internet to look up how to do something I recommend getting a basic sewing book too to have as a reference. I like the Vogue sewing book but the Reader's digest is good too. bookshop.org/p/books/read...

nice simulacrum bro

I need to paint the job icons so they stand out a bit, but these are fun dice for when you can't decide what to play in FFXIV. (They're 3d printed so probably aren't perfect but they don't need to be.) File here: makerworld.com/models/940868

The tiniest kazoo.

My Celes gouache painting from a few weeks back! It was difficult but still worth the attempt 🗡️

🐠Save the Date! The #FFXIV Fisher Meet up is back for FanFest in Anaheim at the Aquarium of the Pacific! 🕐April 23, 2026; 4-6pm 🗺️Aquarium of the Pacific, Long Beach Meet up RSVP Opens on Jan 23, 2026. Follow for details. (Thanks to @martineei.bsky.social for the poster!)

Gaia has a kitty cold so is in the cat room where I can run a space heater and humidifier at higher levels than I keep the rest of the house. Note: she's absolutely fine, it's just a typical minor upper respiratory infection, but this gives her relief from very mild symptoms and keeps others safer.

I wish I had spare funds atm because I really want to commission someone to create art of Ryne and Gaia holding their opposite namesakes, Gaia-cat and @soltysketches.bsky.social's Ryne. I should also get updated photos of her wearing this bib and the fancy collar since these were when she was ~10lb.

Started out aiming towards vet med, realized I didn't have the mental fortitude to do it, re-aimed towards tech writing due to science background, found I liked solving problems for people and shifted to Product Management. Might go back to tech writing to avoid having to do work on GenAI.

Yes! This is so important! Machine Learning is doing wonderful things like mapping Martian craters and analyzing microbe genomes. LLMs are a very specific form & it’s them doing these huge amounts of harm. I also sometimes say “Gen AI” when I mean both LLMs and art generators; I try to never say AI

Spotted little santa hat hair clips at Dollarama and brought them to the doggy playdate at the off leash park. Resulted in adorable photoshoots, and people borrowing the clips for their dogs. 😂

My new lamp kit is ready!!!! Aaannnd the artbook leftovers are available now🥰🥰🥰 Check the full catalogue here: lemoon042.bigcartel.com

Smug girl. Good, it spares my poor antique lamp from getting kicked off the bedside table.

Try to figure out why brainfog stronk today, including it affecting my phone so it said it was Wednesday. Fail. Fall asleep at a bit past noon despite sleeping well last night. Wake up with sore throat and headache. ... Ahh, colds. (Have tested, not covid so far. Probably from the recent cat show)

"Chat, I'm about to end this boy's career." (Leo dared take over Gaia's favourite spot)

i think if you want to have those disgusting LED headlights on your car, you should have to do a test where they blast you point blank with your own headlights and then you have 15 seconds to successfully complete some sort of vision-based task, and if you can't do it they push your car off a cliff

Fuck :(

the.... Azure DevOps Dragoon he definitely had fun with the outages yesterday #ffxiv

I'm not sure I ever posted this here but I made a video ages ago showing how you attach strips of bias tape together. Hopefully this helps someone out! #sewingtutorial #cosplaytutorial

Birthday boy 🎂 Qifrey! #witchhatatelier #Δ帽子 (still a wip)

Blender is up there with Wikipedia as one of very few truly good things on the internet at this point. Please support them while you can, blender has done so much for artists!

Quick cartoon. I was hoping to stay unplugged this week but I saw some news and had to take a break to draw this out. I think we all needed to see it realized.

After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing millions of chickens and spiking egg prices, the federal government didn’t investigate if the virus was airborne. So ProPublica did. Absolutely terrifying reporting from @natlash.bsky.social: www.propublica.org/article/bird...

So, just to be clear, in addition to sending queer people out into the cold to starve or freeze to death, the SA also: - provides food services for ICE - provides correctional services to the carceral system - union busts They’re almost comedically evil.

Remember: don't eat the mid tier fast food chicken, don't play the wizard game, don't shop at the hobby store run by the bad guys from Indiana Jones, and don't donate to the bigot bucket.

Bedroom cat wall stage 1 complete! So far, it's a hit.

The Queen in repose.

It's TRANS AWARENESS WEEK and that means it's a great week to ignore the hysterical nonsense of bigots and understand that Trans people are awesome and deserve respect and love.

a world only for us

There are three cats in this image.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

As for me, I'm Fey! I am a cosplayer, artist, writer, founder of wpacs.photos and an advocate for invisible disabilities and convention safety with @cosplayer-ssn.bsky.social Chronic illness has put me on hiatus, but I'm working hard to get back on track!
