excuse the fuck out of me this is an outstanding cosplay this person probably (most definitely) spent a lot of time putting this costume together and it gave a fucking amazing result if you can’t deal with the fact that there are more body types than 00 in the world who like to cosplay then sorry son i’ve got neWwWS FOR YOUU
she looks fucking flawless
Signal bump because this cosplay is gorgeous!

Doesn’t mean you should what? Rock an awesome cosplay? Because you most definitely should do that. Oh wait was this an attempt at some sort of crack about her weight, must have missed it since me and a bunch of other people were too busy focusing on what a beautiful Zelda she is. Just because you can talk shit doesn’t mean you should, especially if you have nothing to back it up with other than, “Dur she’s fat.” Yeah no shit, doesn’t mean she isn’t gorgeous.

I have a lot of messages to catch up on and pictures to post while I recover from Convergence, which was ridiculously fun :) But before I do I wanted to share a message.

A lot of people over the weekend loved my cosplay, but something else that was neat was hearing people say that they’re happy that I’m out here cosplaying. That’s so great and means the world to me. I mean I know I speak the cosplay words of go out and have fun, and I truly mean that, and I know that when I get hate on I always have a positive outlook and try comment on how foolish it is to waste your energy on bullying someone, and I mean that as well.

But here’s the honest truth.

Words can, and do, hurt, and no matter how strong you are there’s a moment where you feel a pain in your heart when someone takes time out to try and hurt you. Or maybe it really doesn’t bother you, but there was probably a time when it did. We’re human and we feel things, and when I get hate there’s a moment of sadness, exhaustion, and just this voice of doubt. It goes away when I remember the positive or hear the positive, it’s a reminder of, “Hey, you’re great.”

So besides the whole being here because I want to be, I’m also here because your encouragement keeps me going, and because if someone needs to hear that, “You’re great,” I would be more than happy to say it.

We’re here together, never forget that.

Check out these Wonder Women I met at Convergence! I think the world is much safer with these ladies being around.

Happy 4th from Convergence! Hat courtesy of Signs of Crafting <3 and costume by my wifey, of course.

Whoa snap got my first bash on a cosplay on my own page instead of from some random place on the internet, damn, I must be makin’ it.#StartedFromTheBottomNowWereHere

Seriously though, I always find it bizarre when people feel the need to tell you what you are. “You’re obese.” No way, really? I had no idea I was extra large, thanks for the reminder? Though in all honesty if you’re here to tell me I’m fat and you’re following me just to do so then I’m sorry that you don’t have anything else to do during the day then to tell fat people that they’re fat. I mean next you’ll tell me I’m black *gasp*

I guess it was a bit clever with the whole “eating yourself to death” bit, but I’m wondering if people just get their insults from a book that was written before cosplay even existed, because stuff like that has been said about cute chubby folks for ages. I’ve been called my fair share of names before I bestowed my large body with a hoop skirt and dress so reminding me of my juicy bits isn’t news to me, or to anyone on this page who follows me, but again if you feel the urge to shout FAT then just keep preaching to the choir around you, I’ll just keep wearing whatever I want and having a good time.

Brichibi out. *mic drops from chubby hands*

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

Good morning to the morning folks of Tumblr. In case you missed it I have a new cosplay :)

~~Also how did this get so many notes so quickly it hasn’t even been 24 hours yet this is nuts!~~

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 :)

So remember that cosplay contest I entered on this cosplay page? Well, I won! Tiana got first place! I got my prizes and am super excited. I got:

1. A $50 gift card from Amazon

2. A sample sheet of worbla

The adorable card was a nice little bonus, but yeah, I won a cosplay contest how cool is that?!

Let’s create a couple of scenarios.

Let’s say I decided to cosplay Catwoman. Someone might tell me, “You’re too fat to cosplay her” or “fat cat.”

All right, fine. Let’s say one of the women I follow, who is skinny, says they want to cosplay Catwoman. Except their black. Someone might tell them, “Catwoman isn’t black” or “Check it out, ghetto Catwoman.”

All right. Fine. Let’s say that another woman I follow, who is skinny, and white, says that they want to cosplay Catwoman. Someone might tell them, “That cosplay is too slutty” or “attention whore.”

This right here is why there’s no point in stressing about such negative comments. Same character in each scenario, only different levels of negativity. This is why, my number one advice, is to smile and cosplay who you want

So here’s a smile from me to you

***

Bonus scenario: So then you may start to envy the male cosplayers of the world, thinking that they must have it so easy. Then you see a picture of a male cosplayer with a caption like, “He tried, I guess?” Or even see statements like, “Male cosplay is so boring” “Superman really let himself go, huh?” “What’s up with this Wolverine?”

So, everyone? Smile, on the count of three: 1. 2. 3!
(also special thanks to Nude Carbon Studios for the Tiana pic!)

Have you smiled this morning?
