Fuck you B&N CEO for wanting to sell AI "published" books. Reading physical books has been my escape from AI/algorithm/ad slop. Don't take away my last sanctuary.

Science vs episode: A study made participants sort a bowl of beans one by one to induce boredom in order to study its effects. Me, with the sorting tism: okay but I'd have a blast doing that.

Totally forget I have this account. Creators After Dark tomorrow! Running my "Smutty Mad Libs" panel Friday at 4pm! Can't wait for the chaos that is sure to ensue. Ofc me sharing a screenshot makes me realize my slide typo lolol

Me in my head:

In the extremely itchy tattoo stage but at least it looks really dope. These are from when I got it last weekend, done by @/soft.goth.ink (IG) Getting it shaded next month!

Me, seeing a baby: awwww so cute [zero maternal urges] Me, seeing a friend's new puppy: OH NO I THINK I WANT A SECOND SHIBA

Once I learn that you use AI to create flyers or edit photos I don’t want to work with you.

relevant to many of yalls interests.

Me, after 9 days of involuntary phone detox at the behavioral hospital: Wow. My mental health is way better after not being on my phone for a week. Me now: *back to same old habits* Alright phone, you're getting put in overnight jail again. I have shit I gotta do in the mornings.

What do you like to do lighting for? Literally anything, let’s get weird Recently did a modeling photo shoot for a cosplayer I know, modeling this twitch VR rig character.

I ended up deactivating @/alt-text-adder because I'm not on Bluesky often enough for it to be useful. It'd be diff if I knew how to make and run a bot alt text acct, but I don't have the energy or time to learn how. I started it with good intentions but sadly just don't have the mental bandwidth.

LLM are just predictive text on steroids and the fact that people are actually using it to make decisions for their lives would be like me deciding what to eat based on what word pops up in the middle of my predictive text while typing. I need this AI bubble to burst so fucking bad.

Not exactly the post-con blog post you would hope for but it had to be done. ashweezcosplay.com/2025/12/29/i...

Unfortunately, the number of horrific and unacceptable situations happening at cons and in their communities far exceeds our capabilities to resolve or even acknowledge, so CSSN does not offer personal crisis intervention. But you can help someone by learning to Believe It like NARUTTO!

Now, if you're looking to help people individually, rather than being someone who says they're "safe" for people to go to at cons, study up on peer-to-peer crisis intervention! We'll have a more detailed resource on our website soon but here's Cliff Notes from an old post: bsky.app/profile/cosp...

There's only so much we can do, and though we have the privilege of being white, we're still marginalized women—men in power may not think what we have to say is valuable. If they hear these issues from multiple people, valued customers who attend regularly, it's a gentler calling in.

That kind of contribution is immensely powerful because unfortunately, due to our position in the community, we tend not to be heard by higher ups. But if you attend the con, approach with assuming ignorance instead of malice, and let them know you're telling them because you care, they might listen

That page also contains descriptions of WHY certain evaluation criteria exist and leads to a sample policy (an updated version is forthcoming as well!). You can direct the con staff to the page, or you can do some research and read it yourself to make your recommendations.

1. One of our most asked questions any time CSSN gets traffic is "how can I help?" There's no one-size-fits-all approach to answering that but if you attend a convention you love, it's worth checking and reaching out to gently let them know if they could be doing more. cosplayer-ssn.org/rp/home.php

So I've been quiet about today being my birthday, but if you want to celebrate with me, you've got two options! 1. Reach out to a convention about its harassment policy score if not 6/6 here: cosplayer-ssn.org/rp/home.php 2. (mutuals only) 10 Dance BL watch party next Sunday at 7pm Eastern

Also, if you haven't checked out our website in a minute, we're making some big changes! Big thanks to patron Marina for helping us review and make updates. cosplayer-ssn.org/index.php

Courtesy of @ashweezcosplay.com on IG: make sure to stop by the Cosplay Repair booth at Anime Frontier TOMORROW! They've graciously offered to forward their tip jar to CSSN this year, along with printing our brand new trifold. Grab a copy and say hi to the hardworking folks at Cosplay Repair!

Sometimes therapy is just "how the fuck do I talk to this person productively?" And honestly, workshopping like that has been very helpful.

Oop. Also I already blasted through Catching Fire and am on Mockingjay now.

Attention friends! As a Cyber Sec Specialist, I feel a need to share this. If you receive an email from Ao3, alerting you to a password reset attempt, DO NOT click on the links! This is a scam to get you to provide your current password. Absolutely terrible. Safe cyber smart! #ao3 #scamalert

Anime Impulse vlog is done! Thanks Yzzypop and @pandablossom.bsky.social for the extra footage! youtu.be/hxqn4z2DnZs

imagine going through a rough patch financially and u have to cancel your subscription to your mum

your dead AI mother loves you so much ❤️

It is 1998. I am at the kitchen table writing Batman fanfic but I keep getting distracted by breaking news about a Bill Clinton sex scandal It is 2025. I am at the kitchen table writing a canonical Bat-book but I keep getting distracted by breaking news about a Bill Clinton sex scandal

Desperately want to go on a book shopping spree. Been getting back into reading books to curb screentime and I forgot how much I love it.

Can't believe @animefrontiertx.bsky.social is just one month away! Excited to serve you again as the manager of the Cosplay Repair booth with my team of crafting experts!

Damn. I really try my best to be skeptical and discerning of videos in case it's AI generated. Been okay at it but I fell for one because it was an adorable shiba! 😭 The betrayal. How dare you use my weakness for shibes against me.

Happy Halloween! I did a closet cosplay of Gerard Way in the Helena music video for my vocal lessons last night. Even got a still from me during the lesson and I'm really happy with how it turned out! Might make this my go to casual cosplay.

Thank you Jade for having me on your podcast, Cosplay Is A Community! I got to talk about repair booths, cosplay contests, and giving back to your local cosplay community through volunteering. youtu.be/WaqSml7rjHE?...

Did a super fun #kpdh photo shoot last weekend and I got a little footage for the vlog! youtu.be/Llfu81itw7A?...

It's so rewarding to see the benefits of vocal lessons so clearly. I love the song "Black Sheep" by Metric (especially the Brie Larson Scott Pilgrim version) and now I can sing it so much better/stronger than I used to ages ago. Feels good.

Shout-out to all the fellow Americans confused by the latest bakeoff episode when they said flapjacks and were *not* making pancakes.

Happy #Bisibility Day to those who celebrate. 💙💜❤️
