but i'm just sayin', i feel that there's a rich vein of jokes to be mined by someone more appropriate to pick up that pickaxe about how Hexadecimal is downright a patron saint in some corners of Mastodon, given that Mastodon is 80% transbians who work in tech
that's got to be as far as my cis ass goes but. it's definitely there my friends
pictured below, with eye contact kinda: Hexadecimal. i feel like one picture will do most of the illuminating if you're totally lost on this concept
that's way above my current cosplay weight class, so to speak (bc i don't even know how to fucking sew yet, much less how to do FANCY TRANSFORMING COSTUMES), but i'm gonna keep that one in mind
i'd also really love to cosplay Revan but like... multiple layers of black... and i'd probably be cosplaying at DragonCon... in Georgia... in the summer... while you're walking everywhere............ That's A Bad Time
at least as a great fairy i could be much cooler lmao
actually, since we don't really see them from waist-down, i bet if you went for a big full skirt, you could have the outmost later/overskirt be shaped like the petals of their flowers
then just work out some clever way to gather them all up quickly and hold them all together, have the flower color be on the reverse of the skirt, hold it above your head and then let it all go to 'pop out'
maybe some fishing line to easily gather all the petal tips together...?
for real though, i love the great fairy outfits and aesthetic in botw fucking tons
i know they're kinda just Giant instead of Large as in the plus-sized way (though with their figures i'm pretty sure i'd still see them at the lane bryant clearance rack as i'm browsing it), but they just... are so unapologetic about taking up space and being who they are
kinda want to cosplay that someday
............but only if i work out how to do a transforming costume so i can come out of the flower lol
@wigglytuffitout it's like the Dresden Files except instead of being a wizard private detective involved in the supernatural urban underground and crazy fairy shit, you're like
you run a tack shop and read auras and sell supernatural supplies in the back room to your Special Clientele
@wigglytuffitout adorn your horse's show tack with purified crystals to smooth out the energy vibes while in the ring
oh oh oh and the kicker i just realized
since you have to use a shopping service, and they require the URL to do that, it's not actually a case of digging through browsing history with great difficulty.
it's about the same difficulty as looking up a past order on amazon, a la "oh yeah i've really enjoyed this bodywash i got, let me link you the exact one". at *most*.
honestly not an amount of effort you should expect $10 on patreon for imho, lol
like i know capitalism isn't very popular around here and for good reason, but sometimes i just get rather FOR GOD'S SAKE IF YOU'RE DOING THIS, DO IT WITH AT LEAST THE BARE MINIMUM OF TRYING TO DO IT RIGHT
also there is no need to be rude to people asking a question you should expect (and in fact did expect, thus your policy)
either that or this person on twitter is actually the Dick's Last Resort of kawaii tat, who knows
like if it's just an excuse, don't pull this backhanded catty run-around. also it shouldn't exactly be a shocker if you show off something cool you bought for cheap, your audience might go "oh wow! where'd you get it?"
however if this person's already posted the info on patreon... then there's no need for a catty run-around! that's a potential customer! for god's sake! sell them shit! sell them the shit you have already made! the content you have produced! INSTEAD OF INSULTING THEM!
like, i may be coming from a very western lolita fashion point of view here - which is that taobao is the thing we all tangle with from time to time, and because we are all passionate about the fashion, we're happy to exchange information
if the idea is that you're trying to discourage the pain in the ass that is delving through your browsing history - fair dues. but just say that instead of "bitch sign up for my patreon, smh you guys expect shit for free?"
i am like unreasonably offended at shit a friend spotted on bird hellsite
i get that nobody is owed your time, and your time is money. however, if you show off "look at what i got on taobao for only 4 dollars!!!", you should probably expect people asking where you got it
and if your gig is using your patreon to show off the work you've done finding cool shit on taobao - for god's sake market yourself better than being rude to people interested in your product
listen it's a great painting technically and has many other merits but every time i see this particular version of Ophelia from Hamlet i crack the fuck up
i mean look at her face
that is not "the sweet release of death overtakes me". that is "oh.. my FUCKING god. bruh. BRUH. are you FUCKING KIDDING ME, hamlet? are you kidding me, hammie-wammie? just tossed in a bath bomb!! ohhh my god. okay, you've got the three minutes it'll take me to get out of here before i wreck your shit. fuck."
