I was walking in the forest during winter, and saw a wendigo sitting under a tree. I asked it if it was going to kill me. It said, “No, this is just a dream.” So I sat next to it in the snow for a bit and then he said, “The anger in your heart warms you now, but will leave you cold in your grave.” And then I woke up.
You have proof that the universe is a computer simulation. Instead of telling the world about your discovery, you exploit bugs in the simulation to teleport and clone yourself.
Oh, no, cloning yourself is NEVER a good idea. There are a number of books, movies, comic books etc that explore all the ways THAT can go wrong.
Better ideas:
– Enable ‘healing aura’ on yourself and make a fortune as a faith healer adhering to some really random deity.
– Edit a lot of wild new hair and eye colours into the human genome and watch the world get more colourful.
– Use teleport to break into a ton of museums, vaults etc. Don’t steal anything, just take pictures of a toy penguin in situ and run the most bafflingly thrilling Instagram ever.
– Figure out how to edit other people, then take the genitalia of the very rich hostage until they give all their money to a) the poor, b) you, c) environmental conservation or d) all of the above.
– Revive extinct species in really unlikely places just to watch the scientists flip their shit.
– Give yourself telekinesis and just go wild with it.
– Use ‘teleport’ and ‘glow’ to convince people you are an angelic visitor and give them a stern talking to.
– Create an ‘infinite coffee’ exploit and drive Starbucks into the ground.
– Be the best stage magician who has ever lived.
@elidyce if I ever find out how to exploit the bugs in the simulation, you’d be the only person I would tell just so I can watch your creative genius evolve
once on halloween in high school i decided that i would give myself a treat and “forget” my gym uniform and therefore lose participation credit for the day because you cant participate without the uniform. and the teacher was like, “if you’re in costume you don’t lose credit today because halloween,” and was listing off students who were visibly in costume who would get basically free credit, and she said my name much to my surprise and i realized that. she had never seen me in my regular clothes more than once or twice a couple months previously. she thought i was in costume. she had no idea i was just super fuckin goth.
On some real shit, I do not fuck with people who ride those boat things at the carnival. People who get on those do not give a fuck about life, they don’t care about you, ya mama or your kids. They literally have nothing to lose. You don’t care about life so there’s no need for me to fight you because you’re not going to give a damn about my face.
THIS JOINT!!!!
BITCHHHHHHH. I got on this shit when I was 12. Wasn’t no bar, no protection, nothing in that shit. I didn’t realize until it was too late. You couldn’t pay me to ever get on this shit ever again in my life. We were in Landover, this shit almost smooth flipped my ass to Baltimore. No. Never again.
12? I got on this bitch when I was 21 and had my head in my ex’s shoulder the ENTIRE time. Screaming like a bih too. Nope. Never again. I was praying to the gravity gods the entire time.
?????? All it does is swing back and forth???? I don’t understand the concern??????
centrifugal force keeps you in your seat.
Centrifugal force isn’t keeping me from crying tho
Cosplay Repair is not a new idea by any means. I created Cosplay911 last year in 2017, which came about after an incident in 2016. I met a really amazing cosplayer who painstakingly spent so much time and effort making her costume and had flown all the way from Australia to come to NYCC. But in the mad rush of people getting in someone accidentally bumped into her causing her to fall ripping and breaking a portion of her costume. Seeing her so heartbroken made me incredibly upset on her behalf.
I’m a costume designer so I know how much effort goes into making costumes. It was then that i decided I wanted to give back to the cosplaying community. All the artists who put so much detail into their costumes deserve to have someone on the side at the ready. And in a way it helps me as a designer. Finding solutions for the problems helps me when I start designing and building.
So what’s in my repair kit ? Ah. The grand old box. Let’s just say I try thinking of all the things I would need at my disposal as a cosplayer and a costume designer and I pack it. From multicolored threads to 7 different types of glues, from sharpies to screwdrivers, from gauze to bobbi pins, I’ve got a great kit.
Everyone I’ve encountered is incredibly grateful, especially when some of them find out that I’m not sponsored by anyone and I pay for everything in the kit out of pocket. Just a fellow nerd who wants to do a good deed. Also, a surprising amount of them think my box is fake! HA! I think that would be very cruel indeed.
The best thing is that I get to connect with people on an entirely different level. Cons were always a time for myself. Relaxing and enjoying things I enjoy. And now I’ve made it about my fellow congoers. I get to make people smile and feel relief. It’s a pretty amazing experience
Keep geeking and nerding out! Support each other. Be kind to one another!
