I love a beautiful head wrap!

Unfortunately I don’t have much of my egl wardrobe with me here, and what I do have doesn’t coordinate well at all, so I’ve settled on this normie dress for photos ^^; but I wanted to share the headdress in motion to showcase how the pink “blushes” in the light!

Some photos first, great posing (I didn’t feel like putting makeup on):

And a small video:

It still doesn’t fully come through, but it gives some general idea. In some light the lettering is almost invisible ^^ This is my first completed personal piece of the year I think, so I’ve been excited about it.

happy indigenous peoples day ^-^ a year ago i found out my family is half indigenous, so ive made it a personal duty to try and reconnect in order to honor those ancestors and histories. it's not my fault that I may never know my tribal affiliation (we know they lived around Popocatépetl), but it is my responsibility to do my best to honor them. since starting grad school, i've made an effort to talk about my indigenous roots more often, and to be honest about the fact that i do consider myself mixed indigenous. I also talk about this taking into account that I have white privilege, and how this has complicated my relationship to indiginiety.

anyway, i went to an ipd event outside of boston today and was so happy!! i had to leave early for a health emergency (thank u random uti) but it was so fun and i experienced and learned a lot. loved the mexica dance group who danced for Huitzilopochtli (i love you Huitzilopochtli he was pulled for me during a tarot reading and he told me to be fucking strong!!!!), and i especially loved experiencing the seven sacred directions where the entire crowd moved as one. i talked to some lovely indigenous people and they gave me so much guidance and love! it made me feel so happy...I wish I was able to stay longer, but I enjoyed being in a space where I was so welcomed.

if you're detribalized like me or trying your best to reconnect, never be ashamed of the fact that you were forcibly removed from your tribal affiliation. never be ashamed of how you look like either! there were so many "white passing" indigenous folks there embracing and celebrating with those in full regalia, and so many people of many appearances joined in for ceremonial dance. even if you're 10% or 3% indigenous, I still think you deserve to know your ancestor's culture and history! i still think you deserve to honor those parts of you! they wanted us to forget about our indigenous roots for a reason, and i refuse to colonize my mind any longer. opening yourself up to indigineity, even if you don't know your affiliation or "how much" is in you, is far better than never learning a damn thing about indigenous folks.

i hope everyone had a lovely indigenous peoples day ^-^

Yuri Cyhaino Week 2024 Day 1: sharing clothes

her coat / her bandages

ID: drawings of Cyno and Alhaitham from Genshin Impact, genderbent. The second image is a PNG of the first one without the white background. On the left, Cyno is sitting with her knees up on a light turquoise surface, with Alhaitham's window behind her. She is asleep, wearing Alhaitham's coat with one hand on the front. Underneath, she is wearing a simple violet t-shirt and dark shorts. A pillow is peeking out of the lower left corner. On a small pop-up bubble, Alhaitham is smiling with a hand over her chin and hearts around her, charmed. On the right, Alhaitham is sitting with one knee up, on the sandy ground, with a cave leading out to the desert behind her. She is sighing, eyes closed, holding onto her stomach. Parts of her arms and her stomach is wrapped in the bandages from Cyno's burst/wish art; she also has minor scratches on her skin and tears on her clothing. A rock is peeking out of the lower left corner. On a small pop-up bubble, Cyno seems concerned, with a hand on her chest. Her headdress is sweating alongside her. End ID

I've never read The Scarlet Letter and am not familiar with it outside of a one-sentence description but man I wish it were more well known in Germany

Because I find myself hanging out at medieval markets (which are only slightly less fantasy based than ren faires) and in between people doing Vikings (the tv show not the historical people) cosplay in their furs and black eyeliner and dreads or in polyester "medieval princess" gowns on the one hand and memories of studying archaeology and people doing something in between reenactment and experimental archaeology and the snobbery of decrying anything and everything as "not A" (as in authentic)

and also the psychological damage of watching Bernadette Banner explain the difference between s- and z-twisted thread and realising that such a thing as authenticity in a historical context is impossible and

oh I dunno this video is getting to me, like, I am more looking forward to the Heilung concert I have tickets for now than I did before, having won a new appreciation forthe sheer originality and creativity of their sound as well as the diversity of cultural influences being cited but also still feeling that ex-archaeologist sting of "but people are going to believe that's what the past was actually like!"

In short I kind of want to hand stitch a gown to the best of historical informedness and then pin a probably neon pink sign on it saying "not A" as a fun reference to a novel I'll probably never read and a fucking amazing song just to say "I know better and I don't care"

I hope Episode 18 gives us more lore on Burnt and Smoked Cheese Cookie

Yes I’m probably saying that because I want to know if the idea that they’re siblings is true, but I also just want to know more about them. I mean they were on a mural together, bowing to Golden Cheese, but Mozzarella was absent. What does it mean?
