He/Him. Cosmere, Malazan, Locked Tomb, DS9, Cosplay. We're all gonna make it.

Cosplay from Dragonsteel Nexus this year. I did an Obligator for the Worldhopper Ball, and brought the Steel Inquisitor to walk around in and generally be a menace. I had way too much fun asking people if they wanted to do a pose where I'm trying to spike them when they asked for a picture.

TONS of great cosplay, and good vibes. I'll go back next year if I can.

They could never make me hate you, complex female character whose reaction to trauma was not pretty and digestible like how people think it should be.

There's something thats just so incredibly funny about the Afroman lawsuit cause theres literally no substance to it. Seeing all these cops getting upset and offended by Afroman music in a courtroom setting is just so fucking funny. Like a lawyer asking a cop "what private information of yours exactly was breached by the phrase "receding hairline dipshit"?" Like you could have saved yourself the extra humiliation, but instead you guys took it to court and now everyone has seen your sheriff literally break down crying over a song that says she licks pussy. Thats just objectively hilarious

[digitalwizard01]

I can't get over this. Afroman releasing individual diss tracks about each of the cops is so good. Cause like its one thing to make one or two songs about the house raid, but then to proceed to make a song called "Randy Walters is a son of a Bitch", call him out by name and say you fucked his wife, and then have that same cop go on court record saying he cannot confirm or deny that he got cucked by Afroman. Like congrats man. Before, everyone just thought he was joking about fucking your wife, but now you wont deny it

I feel so insane about ai. I've had face-to-face conversations with people who use it for therapy, who use it to calculate the safety of pill interactions, who use it for all their emails and grant applications and legal documents and academic papers and finance sheets and for every single question they have about the world, and if you tell them about the ecological costs they just laugh and say "I guess I've used a lot of water." and I've been in multiple gatherings of 10+ people where I'm THE ONLY PERSON who doesn't use chatgpt. it's turning me into a ranting raving pariah, because how don't you people see??? why don't you understand??????? this bullshit didn't exist five years ago, you absolutely do not need it, and it is destroying everything

Hey just to be clear, fuck ICE.

IceIceBerge was my AIM screenname back in high school and is an (admittedly lame) play on Ice Ice Baby and my last name.

I feel like I should probably change my URL.

Palamedes slams both hands down flat on the lid of the upper coffin, then thrusts his arm out to point an accusing finger at Ianthe. PALAMEDES You’re avoiding the question! Ianthe is somewhat taken aback. So, after a second, is Palamedes.

wargh the photos are here!! we had a blast doing this shoot and I’m thrilled with how they came out.

none of this would have been possible without mutual egging on from the previously tagged, as well as @incandescentorrery and @maxmaybemaxine ♡ ♡ !!

additionally would like to shout out @theunwantedguestproject and the many lovely TUG!pal designs therein; they have definitely informed my mental picture of pal’s outfit & posing — & thusly influenced the directions I offered to @featherbreak during the burning/cutting/en-hole-ening of suit shenanigans & @eldritchw1tch when we weren’t mutually giggling and goofing off!!

I am no nutrition expert but I do have a pretty damn good track record of keeping myself alive, so I want to remind you all that "fed is best" also applies to adults. There's nothing you could eat (that has been deemed fit for human consumption, I don't mean asbestos you smartass) that would be worse for you than just straight-up not eating. No food is as bad as no food.

A protein bar isn't the best possible source of protein in your diet, but it's better than not getting that protein. Fresh fruits would be better than orange juice, but if your choices are between having the orange juice and not getting the vitamins at all, you drink the fucking orange juice.

If you were out at winter while barefoot, and your options were between wrapping random newspaper around your feet, or not having anything to protect your feet, you wouldn't think "newspapers are a worse option than proper shoes, therefore I shouldn't take this worse option" and go barefoot.

Making a Mistcloak

First, take some measurements. I've included mine for comparison; I'm 5'7" and relatively thin.

1) measure fully around your shoulders. Mine measured 44"

2) measure from the top of your head, around the curve of your head, to your neck/shoulder area... however you want your hood to sit. Mine was 14"

3) measure the length of your tassels, from about the breastbone to the ankles. I went for 47" ish ?

Here's a photo of what I mean.

Then, acquire some non-stretchy fabric. I needed about two yards of 44" width fabric. If your measurements are vastly different from mine you'll probably need to do some math about your rectangles.

Then, cut the shoulder rectangle.

Width: half the shoulder measurement, + 1" (mine would be 23")

Height: 15"

Fold in half over the height, then the width. Then, cut out a neck hole from the middle and adjust as needed. I made my neck hole about 8" wide and 1" long in the back, but about 4" long in the front. Finally, cut the front in half so it opens over the chest.

I also used wrapping paper to pattern before transferring it to the fabric.

Now you sew the shoulders using the ancient measuring technique of "eyeballin' it".

With the fabric folded in half over the height (wrong side out), place the fold oriented up. Sew a smooth curve from a couple inches from the neck hole to the bottom corner using a straight stitch. (Or, pin first, then measure, then sew.) Repeat on the other shoulder, using the first shoulder as a guide.

Below is an image of my finished stitches.

Next, measure the circumference of the neck hole. Mine was... idk 20" or so?

Then, cut the hood rectangle.

Width: circumference measurement that you just took. (If you want the opening of the hood wider in the front, subtract a couple inches.)

Length: height of hood that you measured earlier + 1" or so

Place the right sides of the shoulder piece and hood piece touching each other, and pin the circumference-edge of the hood to the edge of the neck hole. Make sure it is centered on the back of the hood/neck. Sew, leaving about an inch of hood unsewn on either side.

Then, again using the infallible technique of "eyeballin' it", shape your hood:

Fold it in half (such that the neck seam is folded in half). Place the seam downwards. Sew along the top of the hood, then downwards in a smooth curve, leaving the entire front open. Pictured below. (I think I would have done a longer straight segment on top before starting the curve, especially if you want a deeper hood.)

Now it is time to make the hood and top look nice, while it is still small and manageable.

Cut the excess fabric from the hood and shoulders; I left about 1/4" next to each seam. Optionally, iron flat.

I did a rolled hem along the entire exposed edge: fold the hem inward, then fold inward again, then very carefully pin and sew around the entire length. This will make the stitch visible on the outside.

Here is the hem inside:

Here is the same hem outside:

To get those sharp corners on a machine, sew one line, then stop. Sink the needle into the fabric. Then, lift the foot. Turn the fabric with the needle still inserted. Lower the foot and continue.

I also added hook and eye closures; add your preferred closure.

Cut one more big rectangle.

I just used the entire width (44") of my fabric, and cut the tassels height I measured.

Pin the short edge to the bottom of the shoulder piece, with the good sides touching, centering it on the back. It probably doesn't go all the way across the front, but for a Mistcloak that is ok. If you need more width, you'll have to composite it out of more fabric... which unfortunately will add significant fabric requirements.

Sew along the length. I added two rows of stitching because I wanted it to be very secure.

Then, cut strips—stopping about 1" below the seam.

I made my strips about 1.5" wide. I also spent a lot of time ironing in creases to give very straight guidelines.

And that's the cloak!!

This is my own pattern/instructions. The cloak itself is based on descriptions from Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn.

Please do not sell garments made using these instructions (which I think would also be against Sanderson's IP/copyright rules.)
