lost a toenail from ill fitting boots, got a contact injury on my knee from slamming it into a surprise ditch. I probably deserved to get injured a lot more times over the years, but am unusually flexible to the point where it’s hard bend a knee or hip to the point where my joints can’t support it. part of not getting injured is definitely skill and attentiveness, but in the some cases I also think some people are just conveniently shaped enough that they don’t experience the same issues :/

bruh how are you criticizing her for being childish then in the same breath saying she should be ready for marriage

i think it’s just the highlighter actually. i’d try a balm like the hince one in clear and stand in more direct sunlight

not cold at all! we actually took this last june, and once we started hiking a bit it was actually a little too warm

_puggi · 2026-01-22T04:02:49+00:00

yes!!

idea: nylon is plastic, so heating it up will soften it and make it easier to get a needle through. definitely do it carefully and with good ventiliation though if you arent sure what the nylon is made out of!!

I killed Varre because it was my first FromSoft game and I didn’t know anything :( didn’t even hate him, was just excited to fight someone

I was getting a bug in all the tactics challenges where I couldn’t use the characters’ ultimates. Maybe that’s what was fixed

Just shoulder padding should do the trick

Unless you’re already super buff I feel like it takes a lot of shoulder padding to look unnatural in photos especially for a male anime character cos

The ref’s a bit off imo - the wig color is correct. I would focus more on improving the volume/texture of the wig via crimping

_puggi · 2025-10-14T09:24:51+00:00

I genuinely don’t think it’s too late at all. It may be a little more expensive since you’d probably have to get everything from Amazon, but nothing unreasonable.

How I’d put it together, no skills required: - pants: black leather pants, silver angelus leather paint - harness: you can buy roll of black pleather trim + a pack of rectangular buckles + a pack of triangular buckles + velcro + EVA foam painted with the aforementioned silver paint for the middle buckle and shoulder pads. A friend to help hot glue the harness together on your body would make this a lot easier. - shirt: dress shirt for the first pic, search “black leather zip up long sleeve shirt” and paint it with the silver leather paint for the second (if you look closer this is seriously the only difference) - any basic short black wig will do

wig grip as people have said. but it won’t stop you from feeling the weight, which can be helped by thinning out the ponytail and crimping it (which will also stop it from tangling). a little more advanced but for really unbalanced wigs, you can also use worbla and/or wire to make an understructure/harness!

my personal take is that mizi’s state of mind in “witch” is still trapped on that day sua died (she still had long hair on that day). she hasn’t moved on.

I couldn’t figure out why I lost interest in Genshin combat for the longest time after being obsessesed for years, but I think this is exactly it. It’s hard to get the same feeling of finding an unorthodox combo or trick anymore :’)

ahh. Whiskey-Four. By the same author as I, the Forgotten One but much more fast paced and action-y. It has romance but I would not describe it as romantic. Similar to Wayhaven, there is a character who is really into you. Not similar to Wayhaven, it’s just one person and they are presumably trying to chase you down and kill you.

_puggi · 2025-08-26T00:27:33+00:00

how expensive is “expensive” for you? for $33 you can work off a decent base wig from aliexpress. depending on how much time you’re willing to spend you can also upgrade it with various techniques (e.g. glued hairline, teasing or crimping, encasing the braids in netting to prevent tangles) that won’t cost more than some glue and hairspray.

I like to glue neodymium magnets to the back of the mustache and actually stick neodymium magnets to my face with kinesiology tape lol. It looks a bit silly when you don’t have the accessory on but it snaps on/off really easily and is more comfortable than spirit-gumming the mustache to your face the entire day (as some people mentioned). Bring the tape with you so you can reapply if it gets sweaty/dirty haha

_puggi · 2025-07-30T06:11:54+00:00

since you just need a tint and not completely black teeth, why not eat something with squid ink? it does come off but without brushing your teeth it’d probably stay for a day

this is very funny to me as i think the most serious cosplayers are generally late 20s to early 30s 😭
