It should be socially unacceptable to come to work with a cold or similarly contagious disease.

It should be socially unacceptable to make your workers come to work with a cold or similarly contagious disease.

It should be socially unacceptable to pay your employees so little that they have no choice but to come in with a cold or similarly contagious disease.

The 2019 ACA (Affordable Care Act) enrollment period has been shortened from 90 days to 45 days (November 1-December 15, 2018) and the advertising budget to promote open enrollment has been slashed in an effort to sabotage the program. You’re probably not seeing a lot of advertising (read: zero) about the enrollment window online or on TV.

i think edward elric entire military experience can be summarized as john mulaney’s “horse loose in the hospital” bit

there is a CHILD ALCHEMIST LOOSE IN THE STATE MILITARY!

NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE CHILD IS GOING TO DO, LEAST OF ALL THE CHILD!

HE’S NEVER BEEN IN THE MILITARY BEFORE!

They interviewed a man who once saw a baby in a restaurant.

WE’VE ALL SEEN A BABY IN A RESTAURANT!!!

THIS IS A CHILD. LOOSE IN THE MILITARY.

And then, for a second, it seemed like maybe we could survive the child, and then, 5 miles under the capital city, an evil homunculus was like, “I have a huge transmutation circle and I’m going to kill everyone to become god!” And before we could say anything, the child was like, “If you even fucking look at Amestris, I will punch you to death with my fists. I dare you to do it. I want you to do it. I want you to do it so I can take my unresolved daddy issues out on you, I’m so fucking crazy.”

the real victim in Pride and Prejudice is Georgiana Darcy, bc u know her brother spent at least two weeks lying around in his Regency Jammies eating Benjamin and Jerrold’s out of ye olde carton feeling sorry for himself bc his crush not only didn’t like him back but tore him to shreds in the process and Georgie had to deal with that and then said crush shows up at their HOUSE and she has to live w both of them probably stealing lovelorn yearning glances at each other the whole damn day while knowing if she even SUGGESTS to her brother that maybe perhaps his crush doesn’t hate his entire guts anymore he’ll just be all tragic about it bc “you don’t KNOW her Georgiana she dESPISES me and i DESERVE it”

I met Victoria Schwab today! She is a great author with a huge variety of books (though let’s be real, there is always tons of murder). She gave a really great talk and I got a bunch of my books signed by her! . . I got really shy when she was signing my books so here is what I wanted to say: I have been in a huge reading slump for the past year. I haven’t been excited about reading much lately. But Vicious is pulling me out of it quickly. It’s a little different than what I normally read so it’s keeping me going and it’s getting me excited about reading again. So thanks for writing a book that is giving me back the joy in reading. . . I look a bit like a wet dog in this photo, but at least we have matching cat ear head gear! . #veschwab #victoriascbwab #books #reading #vicious #vengeful (at Arlington VA Public Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bopl0TThmn1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qx245bevuizv

The “Is this a pigeon?” meme was experiencing a resurgence on Twitter at the same time I realized I didn’t have the time to make the costume I originally planned to make for Anime North this year. I remember lying in bed one night and thinking, “You know, I could totally make a cosplay of that pigeon meme in the free time I do have.” Then I started laughing and the next thing I knew, I was brainstorming how to put it together.

I got lucky and found the light blue jacket at a thrift store. I had to take it in since it was huge on me, but I left the shoulders and the top of the jacket wide to match the silhouette of Yutaro Katori, the character in the meme.

The “pigeon” is my favorite part though. It’s mostly made out of yellow craft foam, black paint, and bristol board. The antennae are two sewing pins I bent to the right shapes and then painted black. I connected the “pigeon” to the back of the jacket with wire from a coat hanger.

I also love the “subtitle”, which I made by tracing the lettering from the meme on a sheet of white paper with a sharpie and then gluing those letters to a piece of clear plastic a friend of mine cut for me. As for the rest of the costume, I owned the red shirt already, the encyclopedia is a novel I made a new dust cover for, the glasses were a cheap pair of reading glasses I popped the lenses out of, and the wig is from a costume I made a decade ago.

Honestly, I was not expecting the reaction the costume got online. I’m thrilled people have liked it so much! I was surrounded by friends when it went viral and that was great because they made sure the whole experience was fun and hilarious. For example, while some of my friends were reading aloud and giggling at comments people were leaving on my photos (so many people were talking about my arms, LOL), another one of my friends handed me a “viral meme award” she hastily made me out of a napkin.

I’ve been making costumes for almost twenty years and I’m still in love with cosplaying. Honestly, because I’ve been doing this for so long, it’s hard for me to wrap my brain around the extent of the impact cosplay has had on me. Even just considering the many good friends I’ve made and the many skills I’ve learned from cosplay, this hobby has left countless impressions on me, both large and small. It’s to the point where it’s become part of who I am and part of the tapestry of my daily life.

I found other people cosplaying the same meme at the con and we had fun looking at the different ways we made the same costume. That, to me, is part of the joy of cosplay – that different people can look at the same source material and come up with so many varying ways to bring it to life. There’s a creative energy to cosplay that’s absolutely wonderful. I truly believe that cosplay is for everyone and that everyone, just by cosplaying, contributes something unique and amazing to the community.

This might be weird but I was so happy when I saw this go viral. This cosplayer, Pan, is the person who I found out about cosplay from. They used to run a website that I was obsessed with and it’s where I learned what cosplay was. They have always been my favorite cosplayer and seeing them go viral was just…so cool.
