#RoadToSanJapan8Bit Heat Treated And Ready For Plastidip And Paint

Ok all of you calling this girl a racist for doing a spot on Cosplay of a character of color are part of what's wrong with today's society. Stop getting your political correct selves from getting butt hurt over a perceive insult where there is no insult intended. Cosplay is all about portraying a character you enjoy or admire no matter your race, gender, sexual orientation, size, shape or age. It's a very accepting community and in fact if the world were as accepting as most of the Cosplay community we would be in a better place. Shame on all of you for trying to shame this girl for doing what she obviously loves with great imagination and talent. She was imitating a character. She was not mocking, degrading or insulting, and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery/appreciation.

This cosplayer is white and in blackface don’t reblog this cosplay don’t put this post on my dash don’t do it I don’t tolerate racists

This is what I saw on the TV as I walked into the waiting room at Port Huron Hospital on September 11, 2001. Everyone was transfixed and my first thought was "what movie are they watching" and then the reality of the true event became all too evident. A horrible act of cowardice enacted upon our own lands. Our enemies thought this would dishearten the American people. How wrong they were. Sure in the initial hours there was fear and confusion but it all quickly turned to resolve. The American people are not cowards and weaklings as those who planned and carried out attacks on non combatants, civilians, innocents. From the ashes that our enemies created rose an Eagle not a Phoenix. An Eagle ready to search and bring those responsible to their knees. The American people became stronger as a nation as we sought to help those directly affected by the attacks as our military girded for battle led by a president who loved our citizenry and supported our military. I want to take time to remember and honor those who lost their lives on that day. The innocents and those who bravely ran to the chaos to help knowing that their own lives may be lost, the firefighters and policemen. I remember and honor not only them but their family's and loved ones as well, they made such men and women possible by the environment of love and support of them and their chosen career paths. Let us not let the memory of them all be lost. Let us not let our enemies know that we forget. Let us keep our resolve to end terror not make peace with it, as our current POTUS thinks he can, but END it. Let us not let these lives lost to have been lost in vain. God bless them, God Bless their families, God bless our warriors (military, civilian firefighters and law enforcement), God Bless America.

It's an outlet for my inner geek.

I’ve been going to anime/comic conventions for eight years, yet I still can’t explain what the significance of conventions are to people without having to go through a 20 minute explanation.  It’s truly a life changing experience, I can tell you that for sure!!  Here’s just a small example, but when I was younger I thought I was the only person on this planet that used Deviantart, until I attended Sakura Con.  I ended up collecting over 50 business cards that had their DA links that year, and I thought that was the just coolest thing to know that I was not alone.  Countless other moments had occurred that year where I met more and more people who knew of and appreciated the same things that I did.  So I hope most of you can relate to that feeling of absolute bliss and joy of attending a con.  uvu Why do you like conventions?  I’d love to hear your stories!!
