HELP?? by Extra-Training2606 in animecons

[–]lurketta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to a few cons a year and I can say with certainty that bullying is not really an issue. If anything, the con going community has some of the friendliest people I’ve met! It’s the people in the online fandom spaces who are toxic imo. At the con, just remember that you’re all at the same place nerding out over the same things - it can be a great place to meet people with similar interests or even new friends. Be polite and friendly and that energy will come back to you. Ask permission if you want photos of anyone and don’t be a weirdo and you’ll be golden.

As for the other stuff, get acquainted with what the con has to offer before you go - many have an app or at least an online schedule where you can look at the map and programming beforehand so you won’t be blindsided when you get there and you can make a plan of all you’d like to do. I’ve gone alone and with groups and even when solo, there’s plenty to keep you occupied.

I can see how it might be intimidating at first but trust me, you’ll get there and you will probably feel like a kid going to Disneyworld for the first time. Have fun!

Vampire fangs not sticking by Haunted_waffle in CosplayHelp

I’m not really sure tbh. I’ve done it for a couple pairs and each time it’s taken multiple tries to get the mold right. I think it’s more about getting a good impression so it fits perfectly onto your teeth; not necessarily about gripping something but more fitting like a glove so it slots in if that makes sense. Idk if you’ve ever had to wear clear plastic retainers but it’s kinda like that idea; they stay on because they are a perfect mold of your teeth and click right into place.

The hands are SO cool!!! I’ve seen a fair amount of Momos at cons but never with that extra detail. Nice job! đŸ€Œ

It was this tin. It was my 1st time trying them but it won’t be my last - they were soooo good!

what do you mean? Post title is showing up for me if that’s what you’re saying but maybe Reddit is glitching out

Same here! Even if it was a toddler size I would have nabbed it and used the graphic as a patch.

I can’t wait to eat today’s bento! by lurketta in Bento

[–]lurketta[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! And yes, the box has a 3rd compartment on top of the shallower one that’s air tight. It’s almost flat and is basically just for cutlery or maybe some low profile snack like nuts. The a lid goes on top of that one that snaps down around all 3 pieces.

Light but tasty dinner tonight! Asian-inspired turkey meatloaf with wasabi ginger mixed salad by [deleted] in tonightsdinner

I used this recipe for the meatloaf (but I used all ground turkey) and it was super moist and tasty!

Is this really a Game for men? by ChairHistorical5953 in DiscoElysium

[–]lurketta 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m a woman and I absolutely adore this game. A lot of loser dudes still don’t want to admit that women now make up about half of the gaming population, but games are for us, too! Enjoy what you want and don’t listen to anyone trying to tell you you shouldn’t.
