Because harassment happens to all genders. But guys get the short end of the stick when it comes to cosplay and consent.I intend to change this. Even if it’s a small change.
Flighting the concept on my personal page, so let me know what you guys think? You’re more than welcome to inbox me your experiences as a male cosplayer, you’ll stay anonymous.
Borrowed from THE INTERNET:
• Avoid using degrading language. This applies to Expo social media as well. Commenting on someone’s body in a way that is derogatory is considered sexual harassment and our convention won’t stand for it.
• Rape jokes, or jokes that are marginalizing to someone, are not funny. Please don’t make them, and if you feel that you have been the subject of such harassment, please come forward to Expo staff so that the issue can be dealt with confidentially.
• Always be respectful of someone’s physical space. It can be pretty close quarters at the Expo during peak hours, but that’s no excuse for inappropriate behavior.
Finally, perhaps most importantly…
• Always remember – we are ALL people. Gender, age, ethnicity, orientation notwithstanding – we are each individuals who deserve to be treated as such.*This is a non profit project done out of the love for people.
All of this is unacceptable
Seriously, no one should put up with harassment; not guys or girls!
I’ve seen plenty of posts about this happening to girls, but this is the first I’ve seen about guys getting crap at cons, and I’m so glad it’s picking up speed. Harassment of any kind is not acceptable, and we don’t need that in our community. Keep cons safe and friendly, guys. Cosplay is not consent <3

Barbara Bush Calls White House To See If She Can Leave Husband There For Few Hours
“I have to run some errands, and it’d be so much easier if I could just leave George somewhere he’s comfortable and not have to worry about him,” said Mrs. Bush over the phone, emphasizing that she would be back to pick up the 41st president of the United States before he became too much of a handful for anyone.
More.
Seen a few adoptables today I’d love to pick up. But I kind of feel sorry for any if I do..
Because the next character I get is going to wind up dead in short order…
My grandma would always x out people in her yearbook and write “Deceased” when one of her high school classmates died. We often found it morbid. Grandma wanted to be the last one living. She wanted to win.
That’s not a yearbook.
That’s a hit list.
An immortal being has the ability to share their power with one soul and make them immortal too, so they can have a companion for all the years if they choose. Only one though. This being has had countless lovers and friends, and they have seen them all fade away as time passes. The being tells one of their lovers, whom they’ve been with for ten years or so, about their ability, and the lover begs to have the energy shared with them so they can be together for eternity.
“I can’t,” the immortal says.
“Why not?” the lover asks.
“I’m already sharing my power.”
“With who?”
The immortal looks down. “My cat.”
COLD BLOODED
I FUCKING LOST IT

Where can I buy them?
so I received these when I got home from my trip, rewards from a crowdfunding campaign I backed late last year.
I’ve been using them since, and damn. are they ever effective!
I had barely any sleep before getting to work yesterday, and still had to do a full shift. normally I’d be falling asleep by 1am. I used the sprayable energy twice last night, and was practically alert the whole night.
the sprayable sleep one is just as awesome.
I tend to have a lot of trouble getting proper sleep, not so bad with this stuff .
I’ll definitely be ordering more of these when I get low on them.
