Yeeeeeeeeeees~
These quotes are all things that have been said to me in regards to my body and my race. It’s not everything that’s ever been said to me, oh no, not even close, but they’ve been said as recently as last month.
Don’t let the negatives take over, don’t let them weigh you down and dictate who you are. Don’t let them cover up the things that make you, you.
I forgot to share this pic back from San Japan this year :) I’m really in love with this cosplay, honestly~ Costume by my uber talented wifey, you can find more of my cosplay here.
So my wifey sent me a link to a meme generator and things happened. Because, you know, I always speak on cosplay and positivity and loving yourself, but those ramblings get long, so here’s some quick memes to keep you going in cosplay and, well, anything you need them for :) Share them, save them, print them out and put them by your fabric as a reminder that you’re awesome and should be having fun instead of stressing about someone’s opinion <3
The Wonder Woman meme is pretty much my feelings on cosplay. Have fun, be whatever you want, love yourself, the end :)
The Tiana meme is pretty much my feelings on fat bashing and this idea that, somehow, a fat person’s existence glorifies obesity. This is a ridiculous notion. You can’t say that a fat person is lazy and useless and needs to go out and do something, then when that person does go out and does something you shoot them down. Me being in this world is about me enjoying my life, period. My weight is simply that: my weight, but there’s more to me then that, and honestly, if you choose (yes, choose, because your opinions are a choice) to be bothered my a woman who has some rolls and flabby arms then I feel sorry for you, because there is so much more to this life than one fat lady in a costume.
[Image Description: In the picture is a black woman wearing an original design she made based off of the character, Wonder Woman. The costume was made by her partner. The top is red with the Wonder Woman logo on it while the skirt is blue with stars on it.]MY ORIGINAL DESIGN WONDER WOMAN IS DONE! Designed by me and created by my wifey. And somehow I got a little red dress out of it, too. The entire costume (wig and all) will premiere on 4th of July at CONvergence, I am so excited!
The only thing missing is the yellow piece but I really like this better. Man the wifey knows best <3
Edit: My cosplay page is here. I’ll have more pictures there <3 Also, here’s a blog post on how the dress was made courtesy of my wifey :)
That moment when a page you watch reblogs your work so you scroll through Tumblr and suddenly see yourself. Also 7000+ notes what the holy bananas?!
So I’m not at SDCC or anything but hey, they showed what Wonder Woman is going to look like in Batman vs Superman, so I’m having a mental celebration as if I’m at the con, cuz, Wonder Woman yay! If I were there I’d be wearing this right now, and cheering, and things.
