You gonna be at Shuto Con, you fantastical motherfucker?

Thank you for my sweet title, you incognito brotasm.

But the answer is no, same answer for ACEN.

I’m willfully on abeyance for my own well being.My last two cons felt less like vacations and more like burdens. Good happened, but when I came home, I felt relief over satisfaction. Costs are too high for that low of a trade. With that said, my next con is likely Jafax.  

(Additionally, next con is my first meeting people with my depression treated. I also have muscle now. Every day, I grow closer to a Dirk Strider knock-off.)

Yoooooo!! I seriously LOVED your god tier Horuss cosplay! I thought it was one of the best things I'd ever seen, and it's totally my headcanon! Do you think you'll be wearing it to any other cons? I'd love to see more of it!

Thank you, friend! I loved your costumes at Youma too- they were all so cute! (I especially liked your Latula, she was totally rad!) 

I will probably redo Horuss, but I won’t be as haphazard with his construction. He was an extremely last minute project. Same goes for Magi! Dave. As a consequence, both costumes greatly differed from the original concepts I had. However, both received relatively positive feedback (especially Dave), and I’m pretty thankful about it. I can’t give an approximate time for that redux though. Mostly because of the following.  

“For a lot of reasons, I might move away from cosplaying Homestuck for a bit.” I say before I give myself a million reasons to not do that shit. We’ll see.

Okay so from what I can tell, this is Tumblr’s situation right now.

About Messaging:

Messaging is out, but only to a handful of people. Those people then must message another person in order for the other person to get messaging. Like some kind of flu or some shit, and no one is vaccinated.

However, one blog can only instant message 50 people per day. As in, only 50 conversations can be started (they can then keep talking) per day. Therefore, for each blog that started out has 50 people they can “infect”, and those 50 people have 50 people to message, on and on.

Therefore, if you get messaging it’s best for the community if you start messages with people who don’t have it yet. Even if you don’t want to talk with them, just to give them the update.

When you do get the update from the person who messaged or “infected” you, there will be a jump scare with balloons and confetti, so be aware. I’m sorry Tumblr hates disabled people. I’m not sure if there’s a noise to go with it.

About Replies:

Replies are supposedly coming back after they are “fixed”. I think they got a huge backlash from us, and decided to bring them back.

There is no defined timeframe for when they will be back, and only David Karp seems to be saying they will be back. @support seemed vaguely confused about it and specifically mentioned that Karp was the one saying that they will bring back replies.

About Fanmail/Asks:

Asks will be staying in the entirety. The ask system will not be changed. 

Fanmail will be deleted. They will take away fanmail within the next couple of weeks, assumedly when they think messaging will have “spread”

Fanmail chains that are already going (as in, fanmail in your inbox) can still be replied to and sent. You just can’t start a new fanmail by going to someone’s page and clicking the fanmail button.

Please spread this so that everyone knows what’s up!
