09/20/2024 Daily OFMD Recap

TLDR; Call To Action: David Jenkins; Samba Schutte; Con O'Neill; Hugo Pierre Martin; How To Help; Other Cast & Crew Sightings: Rhys Darby; Rosie Carnahan Darby; Taika Waititi; Samba Schutte; Leslie Jones; Guz Khan; Damien Gerard; Kristian Nairn; Hugo Pierre Martin;

Well folks. It sure is wonderful to be honking loudly with you again! (Clown or Goose, however you prefer to consider it!). This morning, David Jenkins started us all off with a very specific tweet that set off a chain reaction!

= David Jenkins =

It APPEARS that David is telling us, the fans, that OFMD is "available", and that Netflix is the streaming service to woo. Now, does that mean it's just being bought and streamed? Or perhaps being picked up by a Season 3? There has been some discussion that Netflix sometimes likes to stream a cancelled show before they greenlight another season-- and well, who knows, maybe that's what OFMD is in line for!

Then a little later in the day... Samba started us up with a new #, #supnetflix!

== Love Notes ==

Love Notes are going to be a bit different tonight. So much of the cast sent love so I wanted to share them here. I am not going to be able to say anything more than what they've said, but I want you to know this. I know you're all hurting so much. You have every right to be angry and frustrated, and scared. Take some time to yourself. Get some rest, create something, drink water, take your meds. Fall back on others for help. You mean so very much to so many of us, and we will feel the loss of any single spark of you so profoundly. You are wonderful and worthy of this life, so please live out of spite if you have to-- but please don't leave us. We'll figure this out, and we'll fight what's coming, and we'll fucking win. I'm including some resources under the love notes for mental health, activism, and support lines. Please feel free to share more if you have them. We love you crew. We love you, and we care what happens to you, and we will link our arms and fight for you. Feel your fear and despair today, maybe even for a week or so, but come back refreshed, and rested, and know we're here waiting, and fighting with/for you. We will make it through this together.

Hiiiiiiiiii

how are youuuuuu???? how was iiiiiiitttttt??????

WHAT EVEN IS THIS OUTFIT?!?! HOLY SHIT

DAMN NIALL JAMES HORAN?!?!

(you won you won you won! so happy for you cc! 💕🫶🏻💕🫶🏻💕🫶🏻💕)

Shay this is the first pic I see with the flag omg omg omg 😭❤️🇲🇽 I was manifesting so hard for this to happened and somehow it did. This is my favorite pic of Niall ever.

I saw the fan trying to throw the flag mutliple times and before Slow Hands he accept it and it was so gorgeous and magical.

He sang all the songs I wanted except Stockholm Syndrome (I call it the Night Changes curse I know you love the song but I prefer others 1d songs) but I forgive him because he sang Science and Cross Your Mind and Must be Love but especially the first two I've been praying and manifesting that he sing those and having 1% hope. When he sing Science I was shaking, I was so surprise of how lucky I was that he choose that day to perform it, it was so beautiful to hear it. And Elias show me the setlist, Cross your mind was a last minute change it wasn't on the setlist, it was meant to be for me to heart it ❤️😭.

Niall said this last 2 shows in Mexico City we were the loudest crowd of the tour so far. That this is what he dreams to be in front of crowds like this, we were so loud for every song and he was so happy.

The fan projects didn't work fully, only The Show a little bit but we did make the kill my mind lights spontaneously for Save My Life and he like it.

Everyone was having the best time and he took his shirt off before singing Heartbreak Weather and I lose my mind 🫠 he look so good and is the smallest tank top on Earth, like wow.

Anyway, that is a lot of ideas of what I could remember. I love Niall more than I already have. His love from México was beautiful to hear and he is an amazing performer, artist and songwriter. What a dream come true really, after all this months following his tour and doing updates of his tour living his tour in real live was such a magical experience, I feel so lucky to have whitness that show.

Thank you Shay for sharing this photo with me I will keep it in my heart and mind.

I hope you have a great day/afternoon/night.

I can't believe I forgot to mention this but when I was at comic con this year I saw a pointy yellow thing in the distance and fully thought it was Present Mic's hair but when I got closer I realized it was just Swampfire from Ben 10 😭

Hay dos tipos de personas: los que comparten 'Wrapped' de Spotify y los que comparten su 'Recap' de Youtube

[thresholdbb]

I don't really understand the point of autographs, but it's a low effort way for actors (especially smaller ones) to make money

Won Nana Visitor and Garrett Wang signed photos

Got a special signing with the Rat Pack cause they held the cosplay contest at the same time as the signatures, so I missed every one of the ones that came with my pass. Dr. Trek made it happen for me though, and he was super cool

Casey Biggs and Jeffrey Combs made it happen, wish I'd gotten them at the normal time. Sort of caught them all on the side of the stage

Vaughn Armstrong was very, very sweet, especially considering I didn't have a photo for him to sign

Max Grodénchik took about 10 minutes to sign, meticulously picking out the right location on the picture, right pen, and right color. He wished me luck "much profit," saying it didn't have to be money. Abundance in life. When he was done, talked to him a little bit about the Rat Pack show (and the special Strike version) since he wrote most of the songs

Ethan Phillips recommended some books to me (though I can't for the life of me remember them, I cry), and he was overall very nice

Jeri Ryan was completely swamped but I told her voyager was my absolute favorite and she acknowledged my Janeway cosplay and asked how to say my name. She even laughed at my little name joke

Robert Picardo made minimal conversation, and he picked up and started reading his book to make me go away (it was like 2 minutes max, he had no line, and it was quiet in there. Same vibe both times I've talked to him)

Brent Spiner and I talked about his book for at least 5 minutes, even with his unending line

Michelle Hurd was again very lovely, and I was asking her about the SAG strike

Eugene Cordero hung out at the after party, and he signed my useless gift certificate making it "worth less". I paid for an autograph after just cause he was such a cool, chill guy

Only took pictures with Bonnie Gordon because of my deep cut Prodigy cosplay, which she recognized immediately. She stole my coffee cup. I went back and had her sign because supporting less famous talent is very important

Every. single. one. of them asked or made conversation about my name

Can you make Recaps from Descubre Con Tadeo?

Sure, no problem ;)

Recaps moments (memes) from Descubre Con Tadeo

● How to describe it to make it Iconic.

Other people: Is there a way to prevent viewers or listeners from getting bored when giving lectures?

Tad:

...Tad, aren't you tired?

● Smile

A sincere smile...

● When I finish a project in PowerPoint but don't check it for completeness, the presentation is like this:

● Ahhhhhhhhhhh

When a movie I like has a sequel

● This is me when I talk to myself.

● When I want to be a teacher and try to simulate being a teacher...

● This is me when someone calls and I have to answer the phone even though I don't want to answer the phone.

h...h..hello...🥲

● What did you dream last night?

My dream:

● This is me when I watch Netflix until morning.

● Legendary slapping scene...

Is this a documentary for children?

bonus

I'm trying to escape old problems from last year.

● 🤷

My face when I realized that today I had work to submit but it wasn't finished yet.

● Me every day...

● When I saw this scene...

Me:

● I'm easily startled...

That's it all. Recaps the moments (memes) that I've gathered together, but actually there are a lot of memes here. If I posted more pictures, I probably wouldn't be able to handle it because there were a lot of memes.

Otakon 2023 - Day 0 Recap

DAY 0 WAS SO FUN!!!!!

We made the very smart plan to go down today and get our badges, instead of wasting a chunk of Friday in the pickup line. And it was a very good idea; it went sooooo smoothly and quickly. I got all my accessibility stuff taken care of, too, so waiting in line for the Studio Orange panel on Saturday should go smoothly :D

So after picking up badges, we sat sorta near the entrance and watched people go by. I love watching cosplayers go by and seeing everyone's stuff, and I'm always impressed by people who get fully in cosplay for Thursday of all days. I ended up wearing my Millennium Ring because I wanted something fun, and I also wore Thief King's coat until I was too hot.

We eventually got hungry and went to dinner, which ended up being an exercise in pain because it was so fucking hot sobs. Maybe I shouldn't have been wearing a long sleeve coat in 97 degree weather, but maybe I'm just not smart XD Pat found the place and it was only about 10 minutes away, but I was cursing him out at about 2/3 of the way there because I was so overheated ;w; It ended up being really good, so all was forgiven. Pat had a particularly good mango margarita!!

On the way back to the con center, we stopped at CVS so I could get a 5 hour energy - because I left all of mine in Baltimore - and I got fucked carded at the self checkout. Apparently you have to be 21 to buy them??? So that was funny to me XD

ANYWAY. We finally get back to the con center and see the Legato cosplayer I was trying to meet up with...having a photoshoot outside the building, as you do. It was really nice to meet up with them!!!! I got to share my millionsummers fic booklets and Liz's Legato zine :D And then one of their friends recognized my XiYao ita bag and mentioned that they liked SangCheng, and Liz was able to produce a SangCheng fic from my bag of mysteries uwu We're gonna see them again tomorrow (hopefully!) at the Trigun shoot *w*

It looked kinda overcast, so I made the decision to head home. Which was good! It started raining as we are trying to get into the parking garage XD

== Love Notes ==

Hey lovelies. Hoping your week is progressing in an upward direction. I hopefully get to finally talk to my dad tomorrow after over a week of everything going on, so I'll be in and out of things again. I know everyone is dealing with their own level of craziness right now, and I want to remind you that you're doing great no matter what you're dealing with. It could be little, it could be huge, it could be life-changing, or could be making you regress further back than you'd like-- whatever it is, you are getting through the best way you can, and you never have to feel bad about that.

I know it can feel like there's never an end to the chaos-- but remember that there are pockets of joy and love there in this life too, and however you need to cope with your daily struggles, don't feel bad in taking solace in that. Enjoy the little things, no matter how small. Rest up lovelies, breathe in, breathe out, drink some water, and keep going. Below is a very appropriate love note (for me personally but for so many others as well), courtesy of the amazing The Latest Kate. Not everything is clear right now, but it'll get there, just stay with us, and don't give up. Sending you so much love, crew <3

== Love Notes ==

Wow Lovelies. What a weekend huh? Yall have been clowning/honking (however you wanna describe it) for days now and it's so incredibly uplifting to see! It feels like the beginning of the year again, all buzzing with life in the fandom!

I've seen lots of mixed emotions on the subject of renewal today, so tonight I just want to send you a couple reminders. If you aren't feeling up to Honking for any reason, whether that be that the ups and downs of the cancellation/renewal news, or you've got things going on in your life, or you just don't want to get your hopes up again-- please know, that is OKAY. If you are honking your head off, tweeting, tumbling, drawing, writing, creating, and putting your whole soul into the clowning after David's tweet on Friday -- That's OKAY too. If you're passively keeping an eye on things, waiting for news, or focused on other things-- that's also OKAY. Every single one of us experienced OFMD different from each other. Every single one of us experienced grief from the cancellation differently from one another. Every single one of us has or has not begun to heal differently. If someone is having fun honking-- that's great, keeping doing it babes! If you're feeling like you just can't bear the disappointment again if something goes wrong-- you do what you need to take care of yourself m'dears! Don't push yourself in a way that makes you feel worse. There's no wrong answer here in how to be involved in what's happening right now. Be kind to one another, and let yourself and others do their thing-- and all is well <3 No matter what happens, we're still here for you crew-- we still care. Don't feel bad for how you are coping and engaging with the fandom right now. Just be yourself. Goodnight lovelies, I hope the week ahead treats you with kindness and healing.

I was going to wait until I got more pictures back, since I was making my friends with better cameras take pictures to send me later, but hey I can share those later and still do a convention recap that no one cares about!

So anyway, cosplay and conventions used to basically be my life, and that was pretty much all I did in my free time, but it's been a few years since I really got excited for a convention. Washington Summer Con seemed like a kind of small whatever con, (With weirdly big stars though?) but I figured it'd be fun to see my friends, and I mean I need to do something with all the costumes I own sometimes, right? Well actually this convention was amazing, and I had more fun there than I often do at bigger more established ones, so hey, definitely going back next year! It was so much fun to see my friends, meet new ones, and just everyone there who I talked to was so so nice! The whole thing felt super chill, and it felt like all levels of cosplay were appreciated, not just really good ones.

It was different than I'm used to because I drove there partially in costume every day, rather than getting a hotel, but I even managed to get dressed as Amarthiel in my car, so now I feel like I could do this more whenever I don't wear anything too crazy.

Day 1 was short so I just did lazy science officer. Day 2 I was Amarthiel, which is always a fun one. Changing in my car, and using my car window as the mirror to make sure my costume looked ok was something, and I somehow didn't take my mask off the entire day, so when we were walking to our cars in the evening and I finally did, everyone was like woah, you have a face!

And because it was very hot and in the sun, I decided to be very smart and wear a cosplay I made from upholstery fabric and a shawl on day 3, but we mostly stayed inside, thankfully, so it wasn't that bad!

There was a huge Star Trek presence with actors at the convention, so my wonderful friend Sebastian and I were Spock and the Romulan Commander form the Original Series. I made this costume literally 12 years ago, and still managed to fit into it somehow, and I had forgotten how much fun this one was. It led to so many great Star Trek conversations with people too, and I couldn't get over how nice everyone was, and how much I enjoyed talking to them, since I have a hard time being social.

Soooo now just trying to get used to real life once again, but I'm excited for the next convention, if I can motivate myself to actually start on new costumes early!

NordicFuzzCon 2023

Who could've guessed that I'd ever travel to Scandinavia in winter! Any sane person would question to go to an even colder place when it's already cold at home! But for the NordicFuzzCon, it's absolutely worth it!

The NFC is a con as it should be. Relaxed, focused on meeting people new and known, great location, awesome breakfast with köttbullar and pancakes. After all this photographing, it took me about a month to go through all those photos but it was worth it through and through!

On the first two days, I had to come to terms with being back at a convention - simply an overwhelming feeling I have missed dearly since the Eurofurence.

I spent the first few days having fun, meeting people and taking in all the events I could. Sometimes running around with the camera for free. Can't think of anything I didn't do during the con.

I even scribbled things on the board!

Got myself some good merch!

And got to show off in style!

And lastly, this was my first con where I could just drop off my business cards! Did you get one for yourself? :3

The Statistics, as promised.

Photos Taken:                1820 Photos Delivered:                               837 "Keeper Ratio":                                        46% "Just For The Memories" (1 star):        347 "Quality Shots" (4-5 stars):                    192 "My Favorites" (5 stars):                         50 Paid Photoshoots:                          4 Days till all photos were edited:           26 Skimmed/edited photos per day:      70/32

Kept it short, it's too much to write all down. So, all I can say is - See you next con! I'll definitely go again. Furry Weekend Holland is my next first-con-goal (but due to work and family related appointments probably no other cons for me this year? Not even EAST.)

Remember to check out Furtrack if you want to see my photos in full and follow me on my Telegram photo channel to get updates on my photos. All else is over on Linktree!

With Best Nubs, Pinsel.
