My Anime Frontier '23 Odyssey
I probably shouldn't say it was an odyssey, as I was only there on Friday. It sure felt like one, though! First off, look who I stumbled upon:
Other than that, the only Black Butler stuff I saw were the Book of Circus and Book of Murder dvds (which I bought), the live action film dvd (which I passed on), and someone cosplaying Ciel in his female disguise. There might have been more stuff in the booths, but I was too anxious and in too much pain to browse more. So that was the only merchandise I bought. I did get a bag of chips and a soda for lunch, and refilled the bottle with water the rest of the time. The convention centre had those fountains that are specifically for that purpose.
I got to attend Steve Blum's panel and the Naruto cosplay meetup. I was the only one in a Boruto version costume and the only Anko. The majority there were Akatsuki. No one was mean to me, which I'm grateful for. A few actually asked for my picture and complimented my costume. I was also not the only disabled person there, so I didn't feel so awkward. Still, I was too shy to initiate conversations on my own. Being by myself and not knowing anyone there kept me in my shell. (I went to a con alone in 2017, but still ran into plenty of my old Rocky Horror friends.)
Anyway, here's my Anko cosplay. The bust on the dress was quite weird and we didn't have enough time to alter it correctly. The vintage bangles I bought won't fit over my right hand due to my arthritic knuckles (they fit the left, though), so we had to improvise with fabric and interfacing. Also, I had to get a second wig from a local shoppe, as I screwed up the first one.
I still had time before the uber was to fetch me, so I got Steve Blum's autograph and photos then. (By the way, he was incredibly nice and did an Orochimaru voice without me even asking him to!) Good thing, too, as uber cancelled my trip for Sunday morning, which was the last straw for me. The ride back on Friday night was nearly an hour late as the app kept glitching and wouldn't give proper directions or updates. I could see on my phone it was acting up, so I know it wasn't the driver's fault. But after that, the stress of finishing my cosplay on time, my wig being very uncomfortable, and being so sore from the walking, then another uber problem, I decided to spend Sunday at home.
But now for the kicker. While uploading my pictures with Steve Blum from my digital camera earlier this week, my laptop crashed and fried the memory card. I managed not to cry, but I was quite down. It was the whole reason I was attending the con! Fortunately, my partner (who is a saint!) was able to eventually recover them. So now I can at long last share them here!
And with that, I will likely spend a few more years on break from cons. Also, I'm kind of broke now.

BIPOC autistic people, content creators, blogs, and pages!
Okay...
This post was one that I was unsure how to write. I'm white and I am very aware of my privilege.

When researching and working on my list, I came across a post made by Autistic, Typing in 2019 as they had made a list of Autistic Black/ Indigenous/ People of Color & Latinx Advocates to follow.
So today's post is a link to this amazing individual's link, https://www.faceook.com/share/p/VMWG2wURiVWuTP2r/
This link contains all their hard work and emotional labour, a comments section FILLED with people adding others or themselves to the list, as well as a google doc form to add/ edit/ remove autistic creators. So please, if you are one, go fill it out and have yourself added to the list!
Below are some people/ creators/ pages that I thought should be mentioned. I tried to just add the ones I didn’t see listed, but I know there is overlap and tried to point those ones out.

Sobre Ideas y Blogs
Había estado pensando en dónde publicar mis pensamientos espontáneos sin ser un tuit o un thread, y creo que aquí es mejor.
Mi idea siempre de escribir un blog, inició con el hecho de que quería unirme al mundo de los video bloggers, pero era muy joven y se me daba mejor escribir—aún, though.
Siempre hago comparativas de sitios antes y ahora. La verdad es que sí, muchas cosas han cambiado y mejorado para bien. Aunque otras, las he visto irse por el lado obscuro del dinero.
Sí, lo entiendo, nada puede ser completamente gratis. Sin embargo, tengo años tratando de encontrar el mejor sitio para poder publicar y compartir lo que hago.
En un inicio había sido Blogger. Creo que, como muchxs, era la primera opción y la más sencilla. Era eso o Neocities, aunque éste era (y aún es) más complicado porque tienes que hacerlo desde cero. Ahora le he agarrado más interés. De haberlo hecho antes con mi interés actual, habría sido imparable.
En fin. Blogger me parecía aceptable. El único inconveniente eran los temas. Siento que, teniendo tanta popularidad y demás, podrían ponerle más empeño e interés a añadir más temas. Probablemente no sucederá y, no me sorprendería si Google decide ya no mantener Blogger. Si pasó con sus Google Domains, que ahora le cedieron la chamba a SquareSpace, pues. Lo veo posible.
Y es que esa necesidad de tener un espacio bonito y funcional era mi mayor meta. Di con sitios como Wordpress y pensé que lo había conseguido, pero su entorno era más como orientado a sitios web con fines comerciales. Y aún lo es, y peor. Justo eso me hizo querer escribir esto. Ahora su herramienta de edición de sitio está increíble. Sin embargo, no puedo creer que al tener un sitio gratuito te den nada de espacio para subir tu contenido. Te fuerzan a comprar algún paquete caro solo para poder al fin usar tu sitio libremente y sin restricciones y con un dominio “gratis”.
¿Es en serio? Solían ser grandes, pero, yo creo que les caló que la gente no compraba sus temas y solo creaban un sitio gratis y le tomaban ventaja. Y está bien. Se supone que para eso eran.
Busqué alternativas. En aquel entonces había encontrado un sitio que era blog(.)com. A pesar de su simplicidad, pensé que lo había encontrado. Y comencé a publicar cosas. Cosas que, con el tiempo me desesperaba que no hubiera interacciones, y es que, eso fue algo que me hizo entrar en razón. A pesar de ser como eran, Blogger y Wordpress tenían su mini red de usuarios que se podían inscribir por RSS o seguir con sus cuentas que, seguro promocionaban en Twitter o YouTube. Pero, ¿mi página en este sitio? Nadie lo conocía en español, menos iba a crear una audiencia.
Y así como ahora, todo me apunta de vuelta a Tumblr. Y está bien. Lo he aceptado y me gusta.
No es que Tumblr sea malo, la verdad es increíble (salvo, bueno, los anuncios). Fue simplemente mi concepción de Tumblr. Yo viví esos años obscuros y no tan obscuros y me cree una idea errónea de lo que tiene que ser un blog aquí.
Solía pensar que era un lugar donde, si no creabas contenido original, compartías (rebloggeabas) fotos de tus gustos y atraías a gente nueva con lo que compartías. Básicamente un tablero de Pinterest, pero queriendo ser edgy.
Sabía de la existencia de personas que creaban edits o fanfics de sus ships favoritos, pero nunca me cruzó por la mente que aquí también podía escribir
Aún con mi dominio, me encontraba varado y dudoso en si de plano me quedaba con blogger o si creaba un sitio en Google Sites. Todo esto porque venía incluido en mi dominio Google y quería sacarle provecho. De no haber sido así, no sé que habría hecho.
Al querer buscar inspiración para una historia, regreso a Tumblr y veo lo mucho que ha cambiado y todas las grandes cosas que hay. La increíble gente talentosa que sube su arte, que programa temas geniales y una comunidad aún activa es de lo mejor.
Y, sí. Creo que después de muchas decepciones, aquí me quedaré y espero que a muchas personitas les gusten las historias que escriba y así. En @pescandome , la idea es practicar el traducir canciones que me gustan mucho y también compartir mis historias/cuentos/fragmentos de posibles novelas.
En @matchatlan , tengo pensado hacer dibujitos y hacer mini comics de cosas que pienso o me han sucedido.
En fin. Tenía que dejar todo salir de mi mente. La verdad me es muy injusto que muchos sitios sean de ese modo en donde te cobran por usar su sitio bien. Entiendo que también ellxs deben ganarse la vida y hacer dinero. Pero. Creo que dejan de un lado del hecho de que son sitios de blog y se enfocan más en creacion de páginas web, como para crear una tienda en línea, un portafolio, o algo que no involucre crear muchas entradas. Y digo. Si tuvieran una opción que fuese dirigida a simplemente querer escribir y compartir fotos o algo, sería muy bueno. Lo triste es que muchas personas se aprovecharían de ello y no tendría el propósito debido. Y bueno. Siempre es un ciclo.
Lo importante ahora es, que por fin he encontrado el mejor lugar para lo que quiero hacer. Solo queda seguir escribiendo y seguir pescándome.

Di te e di me
Non posso parlare di quarantena.
Non sarebbe giusto.
Eppure anche per me oggi è stato il primo vero giorno di anormalità.
Il primo di una lunga serie di giorni che, d'ora in poi, saranno davvero tutti uguali, almeno fino a...data da destinarsi.
Infatti, come forse ho scritto altre volte, sono gli incontri con gli Altri, a rendere significative le mie giornate.
Va bene. Ci sono le (video)chiamate, i libri (cartacei o virtuali.
E, proprio a proposito di libri, sei stato tu, qualche tempo fa, a ricordarmi che la lettura è un grande viaggio, lungo il quale s'incontrano folle di gente.
Ne sono consapevole; ma il viaggio di carta, per conservare intatto il suo fascino, vuole sempre incrociarsi con cammini in carne ed ossa.
Perché è vero che possiamo sempre ritrovare la nostra vita in un libro, ma è altrettanto vero che ancora nessuno ne ha scritto uno che parli di me e di te.

I heard a well known skating blogger comment on the Duhamel/Radford/James situation by noting the dynamics of the skating social clique you’ve also referenced and also asserting that the more recent generations of Canadian skaters (TYCT, maybe as far back as 2006-2010) was rife with rivalries/insecurities/backstabbing that contradicted their self-proclaimed camaraderie. I could see both being true, and it reminded me of the discussion of Weapo/VM especially. That said, I don’t think the truly elite skaters of those generations (VM, Chiddy) would be as mired in the intrigue — more just being chased and perhaps hated from afar.
It’s not really shocking that it’s like that. I’m not sure the description of Canada, in particular, is accurate but for sure it happens in most countries. I have no doubt TS got a big share of this sh*t, it’s apparent by the way they aren’t really tight with people in the skating world aside from Patrick, Caro, and Tati/Max. I think the fact that they became so successful so fast and so young made them a target and probably made skaters resent them, especially in Canada but I would assume around the dance world as well. They were friendly with skaters but always kept to themselves which isn’t really shocking. I mean when I see most of the friendships in skating I mostly think that they are either because those who are friends aren’t direct rivals or that there’s a very clear ranking between them. Once the ranking starts shifting - that’s when things get trickier. I mean I’m sure several teams resented TS for doing the comeback and we all know how WeaPo handled it... It’s human nature I guess.

Almost in Time...
I would've posted this yesterday, but I had a doctor's appointment and those always throw a wrench into my whole day. Ugh! Anyway, for Madonna's birthday yesterday, this is from my recent visit to Madame Tussauds Hollywood. Here I am, paling in comparison to her wax visage.
Using my actual cane there. I'm starting to wonder if I need a hip replacement, too. There's a couple more pics I want to share, as well...
I hate how I look in this picture, but I was desperate for a chance to pose with Marlene Dietrich. As you all know, she is my favourite actress ever! Yes, I was singing along to the overhead speaker playing, "Falling in Love Again," in my Dietrich voice. I do a killer Dietrich impression! (What do you expect? I've been practicing it since high school!)
Bette Davis and competing bitch faces, lol. I love her, though I have a slight preference for Miriam Hopkins.
This one is from the Hollywood Museum/ Max Factor Building. This is the original set from Silence of the Lambs, reassembled in the basement! It includes original props, such as the shortened folding chair in front, so I could feel small and intimidated by Dr. Lecter, too. (Jokes on them, I always fancied him!)
And the two stars I had to see, as they're my fav bands! The Monkees:
and the Bee Gees!
That's all with me in them I have. I think my mom may have accidentally deleted a few, as I had ones with Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra and Vivien Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara. And you know how much I love them!
#it's me- caro the blogger#madonna#madame tussauds#wax museum#hollywood#marlene dietrich#bette davis#all about eve#hollywood museum#anthony hopkins#silence of the lambs#the mokees#bee gees#walk of fame

Caro Babbo Natale, scusa il disturbo sono solo un’ora di scuola asincrona. Lo so, suona male Caro Babbo Natale, scusa se ti disturbo, in questo periodo riceverai un sacco di posta. Del resto è un periodo in cui scriversi va molto, sarà che siamo tutti chiusi in casa. I medici scrivono lettere aperte al governo, la ministra scrive agli studenti, il premier risponde ai bambini preoccupati che tu non abbia l’autocertificazione per uscire. Quindi, lettera più lettera meno, eccomi qua. Tu non mi conosci, non hai mai sentito parlare di me: sono un’ora asincrona. Non credo tu abbia sentito spesso questa parola, non mi pare che tu abbia per casa figli adolescenti, a meno che non si tenga conto degli elfi. Fanno didattica a distanza, loro? Tutti nella fabbrica di giocattoli? Perché in quel caso avranno a che fare con me, la più odiata, la più temuta, la più misteriosa. Intanto ho un nome bruttissimo. Asincrona. Sembra una cosa che i tamarri urlano in macchina, guidando con il gomito fuori dal finestrino quando vogliono fare gli splendidi. “Abbella!” sarebbe comunque meglio di asincrona, che sembra un po’ un insulto. No, non è per via dell’alfa privativo, suona proprio male, ma pazienza il suono, è il concetto che fa un po’ ridere. Ci sono anche le mie colleghe, le ore sincrone, quelle di serie A, in cui i ragazzi sono connessi in contemporanea, che si lamentano, perché sembrano sedute spiritiche fatte di “mi sentite?” “mi vedete?” “se ci sei batti un colpo”. Colpi ne battono un po’ tutti, a volte di genio, più spesso di sonno. Ma le ore asincrone? Sono quelle in cui i docenti assegnano agli studenti lavori da svolgere non in sincrono, quindi da fare quando pare a loro. Per evitare che stiano troppo al pc, che poi tanto se spengono il pc accendono il telefono, il tablet, la playstation, quando non fanno già queste cose contemporaneamente, ma non stiamo a sindacare. Sei tu che hai portato tutte quelle consolle in regalo, prenditi le tue responsabilit��. La scuola è diventata così, un po’ aziendale, più che fare le cose bene, ci si affanna molto a fare in modo che sia visibile e tangibile il fatto che le cose sono state fatte, non importa come. Un’ora asincrona, una come me, dura parecchio: dura il tempo di preparami e si sa che a prepararci noi ci mettiamo un mucchio di tempo, approntare materiale, selezionarlo, assegnarlo, modificarlo, personalizzarlo per i diversi alunni che hanno bisogni diversi. Siamo come i baci di quella canzone, una sola ne vale almeno tre. E una volta che hai assegnato un’attività asincrona? (Non chiamarla compito, eh, i compiti sono un’altra cosa, ci sono ancora, ma non usiamo questi termini desueti, siamo nella scuola della didattica digitale integrata, mica pizza e fichi). Niente, una volta che gli studenti, anzi i partecipanti, ti hanno inviato i loro lavori arriva la notification, poi restituisci il feedback di altre attività asincrone scadute. Noi asincrone scadiamo, come lo yogurt. I ragazzi ormai parlano come consumati manager aziendali, al mattino aprono le call, dicono “ho due assignement da svolgere prima della deadline”, non dicono manco più “vado a lezione” ma “avvio la riunione”. Una conversazione normale non esiste più, se c’è va programmata, ci si accorda nella chat, si programmano i test, naturalmente on line, quelli a multiple choice. Ma va bene, eh, Babbo Natale, prima o poi la smetteremo anche di fare queste cose, le ore asincrone come me torneranno a essere ore in cui ci si guarda in faccia senza la webcam. Intanto, però, volevo chiederti il favore, se passi di qui per Natale, di portarci giusto un po’ di buon senso e un dizionario di italiano. In cambio, sotto l’albero, ti lascio il latte, i biscotti e un centinaio di cosi con le rotelle. Smontali e facci macchinine, o facci giocare le renne. Con affetto, l’ora asincrona. Valentina Petri, professoressa di italiano, blogger e autrice di "Portami il Diario"

Helloooo. I'm new to this card reading thing and I did some research on it and it's quite interesting. I just wanted to ask if there are any good sites to get more information on. I also lovee your page sooo much😊😊😊
Heyy💕
Aww, it's so nice for me to hear that you like my blog and my stuff!😟💜💜 *Send Love back*
Until now I didn't really found my connection to (tarot) card reading that's why I'm maybe not the best info-station for that😅
Nevertheless, the blog that comes immediately into my mind with doing card reading is submissive-bangtan! Her blog is also the blog, where I came in contact with tarot card reading for the first time and where I still get the most informations from.
I think, her blog a good spot to get more into the topic and to get to know other blog with card reading as well (like always, much bloggers with similar interests are connected with each other). Don't be shy to ask her, Caro is really nice ;)
I hope I could help you even when my own knowledge about card reading is really small😅🤣
Love and Greetings, Tipsy 💜
#anon ask#anons welcome#card reading#submissive-bangtan is the guru for that#ask caro#tipsy try to help you#love you all#don't be shy to ask me something#💜💜💜

I was nominated by @casualpandabeliever for this challenge. Alright, here we go.
RULES: answer 20 questions, then tag bloggers you want to get to know better.
NAME: Carolina
NICKNAMES: caro, carito, morla
ZODIAC SIGN: Scorpio
HEIGHT: 161 cm
LANGUAGES SPOKEN: Spanish, and some English, very poorly pronounced, but at least I understand when I hear it.
NATIONALITY: Argentine
FAVORITE SEASON: Autumn, I like its colors, the weather and the smell of rain. And winter! because I like to wear many layers of clothes, and feel the cold air on my face.
FAVORITE FLOWER: Did you see those roses that have streaks of different colors? yellow with pink, or magenta with pink, white and tea color? well, those. Those roses that do not know well what color they are but they smell delicious.
FAVORITE SCENT: rain, roses, chocolate, new books, old books
FAVORITE COLOR: purple, magenta and gray
FAVORITE ANIMAL: all the cats, bats and crows (although there is no where I live, I love them)
FAVORITE FICTIONAL CHARACTER(S): Castiel, Dean Winchester, Spike (from Buffy). Mulder and Scully, Indiana Jones, Dr. Frank-N-Furter, Gambit... and many more! I could be answering this question all day.
COFFEE, TEA, OR HOT CHOCOLATE: Hot chocolate!
DOG OR CAT PERSON: cat person
NUMBER OF BLANKETS YOU SLEEP WITH: 3, 3 is good.
DREAM TRIP: I used to dream of seeing Miguel Angel's David in person but I have already achieved that. I would love to travel to a comiccon and meet Misha in person. I would also like travel to Australia and Scotland.
BLOG ESTABLISHED: I created the blog a few years ago to have a space to share nsfw photos of my bjd dolls. I can no longer do that here (or anywhere else practically), so I dedicate it to share photos of my bjd destiel dolls and reblogg things that interest me.
RANDOM FACT: I am firmly convinced that life would be infinitely simpler if I could hear the narrator. Or at least it was musicalized.
I’m tagging @sinick @cuddlemonsterdean @magnificent-winged-beast

Ok, sono stata lontana dall'Internet per un po'. Torno qui e vedo robe strane derivanti da un unico post che a me personalmente non sembrava assolutamente accusatorio. Scopro che lo è! E questo post tu l'hai rebloggato con sotto una tua opinione... Io che t'ho sempre vista più neutrale della Svizzera, non capisco se tu sei effettivamente a favore delle accuse o meno.
Il post a cui ti riferisci è sicuramente questo qui
Ora è tempo di spiegare la situazione e la storia di come ho ricevuto a mia volta hating e perso dei followers a casissimo.
Io ho un account twitter, data di iscrizione: marzo 2013. Il punto è che non lo uso praticamente MAI!
Tranne in alcune occasioni che riguardano ospitate o come l'ultima volta (cioè venerdì 20 settembre) perché volevo vedere la situazione circa "Tale e Quale Show", quindi non sono avvezza a quella piattaforma (ma so che è il male sotto più aspetti).
Tornando a noi, anche io sto usando poco i social perché la mia vita ha preso una svolta piacevolmente frenetica che lascia poco spazio per dedicarmi al blog, se non per pochi minuti alla volta (interagisco a stento con i primi 6-7 post che vedo sulla dashboard e non controllo nemmeno le note)
Vedendo il post, ho mancato completamente il punto della situazione. Secondo la mia interpretazione, si riferiva all'hating verso le fan fiction e coloro che le scrivono (tema che è a me molto caro dato che è ciò che mi ha impedito di postare ciò che scrivo), quindi ho espresso la mia opinione circa la mancanza di coerenza e alcune cose che mi è capitato di leggere:
Gente che non le sopporta ma le va a leggere solo per malignare: Perché?
Gente a cui piacciono ma lo nega... Perché? (e questa situazione è molto vicina a me, non faccio nomi ma mi è stato detto esplicitamente "Pare brutto, dopo mi prenderebbero in giro")
Gente che magari legge fan fiction di tipo "Self insertion": Ok, piacciono anche a me, ma ciò non vuol dire che quelle fantasie diventino reali, né per te e il tuo idolo, né per il tuo idolo e la persona con cui viene shippata e verso cui fai hating
Il punto della mia risposta al post era: "leggete, disegnate e scrivete tutto ciò che vi aggrada di più, siate liberi di vivere la vostra esperienza da internauti, ma a vostra volta non limitare la libertà di chi ad una visone eterosessuale ne preferisce una omosessuale e viceversa. Il tutto nel rispetto dei diritti dei diretti interessati."
La parte degli ormoni è data dal fatto che si normalizzare il Self inserting ma non lo shipping... E la cosa mi fa rabbia, tutto qui.
Me ne farò una ragione, quando il vetro che separa l'effettivo significato delle mie parole da quello affibbiatogli verrà rotto, forse sarà tardi (mi stupisco di come certa gente sia capace ad insultare così liberamente e velocemente), ma che sia da monito alle future interazioni tra bloggers.
Detto questo, la Svizzera fa ciao ciao con la manina 🖐🏻
