A member of our con staff got arrested at the con, and still nobody knows why. He was walked out yelling "That was YEARS ago!"In happier news, I was in the hospital with appendicitis and my bf came to visit me dressed as Shinji Ikari. The nurse with Tokyo Mewmew tatts thought it was hilarious.
>>10974032None of this happened btw
Anybody else have zero cosplans for the first time ever? I didn't even bother to dress up at the last few cons. I did have a big family loss recently, though.
Moved to Europe where all the streets are bumpy uneven cobblestones, any Lolita shoes with even a slight heel are hell to walk in here, what do
>>10974129Carry a pair of flip flops on your purse or whatever, or git gud and learn to walk with them. You could also look for shoes that are comfortable to use and avoid ones with heels
I still haven't finished my cosplay...>>10974032>I was in the hospital with appendicitis and my bf came to visit me dressed as Shinji Ikari.Did he also started to masturbate in front of you?
I miss the /cgl/ of my youth.
>>10974139After covid, all the slutty millennial catgirls left cosplay and the slutty gen z puppygirls took over. It just hasn't been the same.
>>10974266>slutty gen z puppygirls took overthey didn’t really take over, this place is dead
>>10974032Remember one of our con staff got served with papers (restraining order IIRC) made out by another staff member at one of the planning meetings
>>10974307I meant they took over the cosplay scene, not necessarily this board.
>>10974032Well... I met a Juggalolita
>>10974933Were they ita or was the coord maddeningly cohesive
My gf really likes doing couples cosplay but the couples cosplay she picked out was a little too much of a surprise I think. She wanted to do bowsette / booette, but the dress she lent me was a little too large and the accessories were a little closet. I had fun but dating other women with the same nerdy interests seems to trigger in me some kind of undocumented foid neurosis.
I'm 38 and finally got it together. Finally on all the meds I need to function, my body would impress my teenage self, about to finish trade school, been going to all kinds of events marketing myself so I have clients lined up when I get my license, even going to little micro cons around to the point where people recognize me and wave me over to chat. Even doing things I always wanted to do like fly across the country just to hang out with friends at a con.every day i do the fun things i've always wanted to do I feel a deep sadness. a sense of mourning. I shake it off but it always happens. I lost most of my life to physical and mental health issues. I never had the money to do anything I wanted because I was too physically fatigued or mentally unable to hold jobs for very long.I'm going to see some friends soon and I'm overjoyed about it. I love them so much. but there's still a sense of bitterness. If only I met these people sooner. If only I had an adult in my life that cared for me maybe they could have helped me avoid losing 20+ years of my life to sludge. I'm happy I escaped NEET prison, I'm lucky to come out of it well adjusted thanks to a loving patient gf keeping me sane. but having 20 years amputated leaves a deep scar. the phantom pain of years lost, of what could have been starts screaming at times.
>>10974960that feeling does not go away, but it is alleviated by helping others avoid a similar fate.

>>10975007She probably got stoned at the rave and told her mom she was crying to cover it up.
Dipped my toes into an EGL Discord server and everyone seems to be angry, backbiting, vindictive assholes pretending to be Nice Woke* that all worship the cult of the person that runs the server... *The "I will blame my mental illness/disabilities/queerness/minority status on why I'm an asshole so I can't be held accountable for my actions, and suggesting therapy for any of it is ableist and classist and etc etc etc, and the group will triangulate Relational Aggression on you and ostracise you if you call any individual one of us out on it" kind of peopleIs it just better to be a Lonelita?
>>10975096Unfortunately. Unless you just enjoy playing office politics with autistic women.
>>10975099I like being a gossipy bitch and knowing all The Business but I don't want to be involved in drama myself. Like for sure tell me when some BTSSB Ironing Board or 14 right sleeves in a Lucky Pack shit is happening. Other than that I just want to drink tea, eat pastries, be frilly, and take some pics.
How long until we see the first cosplay of Swords and Slippers in the wild?I already found at least premade Snowwhite cosplay to buy on the internet at least(I kinda prefer Red Riding Hood so far)
Damn. My obese friend dressed up as the Spy x Family dad and everyone thought he was Trump.
>>10975215I guess he knows his next cosplay now
>>10974134Most overused footwear ever
I hope Soufflesong crashes and fucking burns, and every YouTuber that shills them loses their following. Waited too long to file a chargeback with PayPal and now they can just fuck off with my money with no consequences and send me nothing that I paid forFuck you Soufflesong I ordered this shit in January and I was too patient with you bitches
SoI found out recently that the leather I bought for my cosplay is meant for sofas, not for clothingAnd one leather I need wasn't available anymoreWell, I guess I start at least one coat from scratch
