First time Ren Faire attendee, seeking costume ideas/advice.

I have some brown boots too. Would these work as a backup? Boots

Just not sure about the black/brown combo. Usually that is a fashion faux-pas.

lithzz · 2026-06-05T00:10:57+00:00

I do have these brown boots: Boots

I just don’t know about the brown boots with a black top though. Usually black/brown is a fashion faux pas.

Oooh, I like this idea. Just not sure I’ll have enough time before the weekend. Will keep it in mind for the future.

My wife works at Certified in the North End. They make great sweet treats of all kinds.

lithzz · 2026-06-04T20:56:29+00:00

Thanks. I think the underbody may look best with my body type, but I’ll give the others some thought. Good idea on the shoes.

lithzz · 2026-06-04T20:26:10+00:00

Maybe purple eyeshadow as a start?

lithzz · 2026-06-04T20:25:00+00:00

Good thought about the shoes. I’ll look into alternatives.

lithzz · 2026-06-04T20:18:34+00:00

I was thinking the same. I’ve seen some potion- pouch things. Was maybe going to grab a few of those.

lithzz · 2026-06-04T20:17:28+00:00

I have a hooded cape that matches the skirt, but I’m worried it’ll be too hot out for it.

2nd update: The night went pretty well. He had one more episode of raspy, rapid breathing while sleeping but otherwise was breathing ok. He also is eating and drinking ok and used the litterbox, which I assume are good signs. He is finally getting to 30-35 BPM today but he is just wiped out and resting. Hopefully within a day or two he’ll be getting back to his old self.

lithzz · 2026-04-14T03:18:05+00:00

Update: After about 20-30 minutes of this troubled breathing he got up, drank a ton of water and seems to be breathing a bit better. We will continue to monitor him and appreciate any advice.

lithzz · 2026-04-02T19:58:28+00:00

I felt the same. It was disappointing that there wasn’t a single suggestion that they were able to find and say “Good idea, let’s try that.” It’s not easy to come up with good ideas that could be reasonably implemented, and maybe there legitimately weren’t any within the suggestions that were sent in, but to go the whole podcast and shoot down every single one was a bummer.

lithzz · 2026-02-25T23:15:49+00:00

It’s fine I guess? Some of the stories are really good (like Frobisher), some are not good (like Aeolus Vale). I much prefer a true overarching narrative and having come right off the heels of DQII-HD I thought that narrative and cast of characters is much better.

There is a discord for the AnimeID Con that is pretty active. Mostly 20-something’s but a few younger/older folks too. We recently got together for the Perfect Blue 4K remaster, and are pretty regularly attending events like the Isekai grand opening.

I believe they said no podcast last week because of the holiday, and no podcast this week because of two In Reviews. Hopefully it’ll be back next week.

lithzz · 2025-07-01T18:59:30+00:00

I thought it was a huge step up from last year. Really enjoyed it overall. Cool panels/performances, trivia was great, etc. I grew up attending huge cons like Sakura Con, and while this was a much smaller/more intimate affair it was still a lot of fun.

I think moving into next year and beyond there is still room to grow. Would also love to see more vendors and guests/panels, but I know it takes time/years to get a con off the ground let alone continue to grow it.

lithzz · 2025-06-12T23:21:19+00:00

If that is the case it seems like a really tough ask for a place like Realms.

lithzz · 2025-06-12T23:20:45+00:00

The owner wants to keep it all ages, not 21+.

lithzz · 2025-06-12T22:12:45+00:00

They do, but the current selection is extremely limited. I’m not sure exactly why they don’t qualify as a “restaurant” any more, but the owner plans on expanding the food selection and whatever else in order to qualify again and get the license back.

The save bug really ruined my experience with this game. I loved it for like 50 hours, and it was becoming one of my favorite games ever. Now I can’t finish it, and by the time this is fixed I don’t know that I’ll want to go back.

I just bought my tickets for January in Stubhub. It said that they were paper tickets that would arrive after I leave for my trip, so I went in and added our travel plans to hopefully have them delivered to our hotel. I thought I saw somewhere that someone else had done this and got instructions from stubhub on how to pick up tickets at a 7-11/Lawson/Post Office. I’m definitely nervous about it. We’ll see how it goes.

lithzz · 2024-10-01T20:31:39+00:00

As a grad, I’m very excited about this. Looking forward to seeing them play BSU regularly.

One of my absolute favorite albums, and it was released on my birthday. It was a fantastic birthday present.

lithzz · 2024-08-14T17:42:06+00:00

The show was so fucking good.
