After years of this image of me circulating various corners of the internet, I'm ready to come clean about one of the most pressing questions that arises whenever it's posted.
It's white pizza with bell peppers & spinach. It was pretty good.
SO EXCALIBUR WAS NOT THE SWORD ARTHUR PULLED FROM THE STONE. THAT ONE WAS CALLED CALIBURN, WHICH WAS LATER BROKEN DURING HIS FIGHT WITH KING PELLINORE. EXCALIBUR WAS GIVEN TO ARTHUR BY THE LADY IN THE LAKE, IN EXCHANGE FOR A LATER BOON FOR HER-
This photo of me from last year ended up being a giant mood for this year eh
(also the fact that this is the photo of my cosplay that’s gotten around the most...I deserve it tbh)
"cosplaying from x series doesn't gain traction and you won't get popular from it" good thing i cosplay for fun and because i enjoy it as an art form then. If you're into cosplay solely for fame, you're in it for the wrong reasons.
Today is also apparently the anniversary of that first photo, which I didn’t realize until fb showed me the memory.
I recreated the same circumstances too- at a tiny con, bullied a friend who does professional photography into taking a silly photo of me in our hotel
toxic follower bases that expect cosplayers to pull out a new elaborate cosplay every week vs toxic follower bases that expect a cosplayer to only ever wear the one cosplay they know them for
fight
The cosplayer struggle of “I’d like to bring a second cosplay to wear, but the first cosplay’s makeup is so specific that if I wear it with anything else I will look Insane.”
One of the most important things I think cosplayers online (or anyone, really) can learn to maintain a healthy body image is how to identify when someone has altered the way their body looks in a photo. Once you know what to look for it’s usually pretty obvious.

I'm in no position to speak on this but from what little I've seen it mostly seems to be the teenagers who try to "police" the community. The only real instance of that I've seen from adults were the ones who were telling minors not to cosplay from very "adult" media.
It is so important to be well-rounded and have friends & interests outside of cosplay. This goes for any close-knit, insular hobby with a heavy social media presence- you need to be able to have some distance when you need it.
I don't mean this in a bad way but sometimes you can just tell when someone has, at one point in their life, owned a skater dress made to look like the tardis.
I never thought I'd cosplay Rin again but her Extra design is so cute and I'm really enjoying Last Encore 🌠

Lots of new people here, hi!
I’m Socksy, I’ve been cosplaying for over 10 years. I’m 27, work in healthcare, and in addition to cosplay I also shitpost about D&D, sewing, and historical fencing! ⚔️✨
why be a petty "no doubles" cosplayer when you could run around conventions collecting people cosplaying the same character like some kind of crazed katamari
All hobbies have and will continue to evolve, social media (tiktok especially) will curate itself to show you more of the stuff you’re already watching. There are literal thousands of individual cosplayers and you can easily find content and people you like more if you look.
🌸 take my revolution 🌸
Every time I see Utena I want to wear & shoot her again, once was not enough for a project that ended up being as involved as this one!✨

QRT the character and how you cosplayed them ✨
I love Yoshitaka Amano’s work, so I used his illustration as the primary inspiration for my Terra cosplay 💕 Had a lot of fun playing around with different trims and appliqués on this one!

I need to get a new mask I've been DYING to do Catra again!! Also this shoot with
@honeyheather_
will always be SO GOOD!!!!!
If cosplay really is moving to Twitter over other apps y’all are just gonna have to deal with my shitposting, the bird app is for 87 posts in a row of absolute nonsense then sometimes cosplay photos when I remember to, and I don’t plan on changing that.
This is not directed at anyone in particular since it’s been happening for a long time, but a bit of a PSA. NSFW content and those who make it are great in the right time and place, but if it’s pretty clear that’s not what a cosplayer is here for, maybe don’t.
