Heya, I'm Max and welcome to my multifandom animanga & gaming blog! 💖 (she/he) 💜 lvl.30+ 💙 queer & disabled ♿ (Semi-Personal Blog) My user icon was drawn by @marjoartstuff! You can expect to see a little bit of anything and everything that I enjoy on here. I treat this blog like a diary of sorts. I used to make a lot of Pokémon & anime .gifs, but I’m on a hiatus from .gif-making right now! (FAQ) I’m a disabled cosplayer and photographer who loves spending her free time going to conventions. I'm local to the NYC tri-state area, so I frequent quite a few events around here. I upload my cosplay vlogs to YouTube and stream Pokémon, JRPGs, and farming sims like Story of Seasons and Rune Factory on my Twitch! You can stop by my Cosplay Blog if you'd like to see more of my work. My posting schedule tends to be a bit sporadic due to the unpredictable nature of my Crohn's Disease flare-ups.

Heya and welcome to my blog! ( *・∀・)ノ゛✨

My name's Max (she/he) and I'm a disabled and queer millennial cosplayer living in the New York City tri-state area. (I also go by the name Aly!) I love bringing my favourite characters to life through my cosplaying, and have been going to conventions since 2011. I spend my free time editing photos, making .gifs, vlogging, and gaming.

This is my main blog, and you'll be seeing a little bit of everything that I enjoy on here. I'm mostly into anime and video games, but there may be some other series sprinkled in here from time to time. Every post will be tagged with the series name and any relevant warnings.

You'll find me nightblogging about my muses on here most nights. What can I say? I'm just a feral yet sterile fangirl. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 18+ MDNI

I use this blog as a diary of sorts, so you can expect a decent amount of personal posts. I also love liveblogging whatever series I'm currently into. You can find a masterlist of relevant links here.

I stream Pokémon, JRPGs, and farming sims on my Twitch after 11 pm EST on weekday nights. You can see more of my work on my Cosplay Blog. (´｡• ◡ •｡`) ♡

Merry Christmas from my household to yours! How are you spending your evening? 🎄

We'll be watching some Pokémon after dinner tonight! Here's our tree this year! I loved decorating it with my Pokémon plushies and ornaments.

As many of you may know, I had a few surgeries back in 2023 due to a bowel obstruction. I have Crohn's Disease, which is an autoimmune disease I will have for the rest of my life.

Health insurance is so important to everyone because just my medication alone costs over $80,000 a year. That doesn't include the trips to the ER, routine doctor's visits, tests and scans, and transportation to get to the appointments.

My claims from 2024 cost over $150,000, and that's without any surgeries. My healthcare portal doesn't go back to my 2023 claims, but I remember they were well over the $250,000 mark by the year's end.

This is why healthcare reform is so important. There are tons of people similar to me who need ongoing medical care or else we'll end up in the ER due to our disabilities. Disability doesn't discriminate, either. Illness happens to us all at some point.

I am in a position where I do have healthcare, but there are so many people who don't have that luxury. It breaks my heart to see so many people go without basic care. I will always believe that healthcare is a basic human right.

I couldn't wait to see up my Christmas tree this year. We decorated it with some plushies and ornaments featuring my favourite Pokémon! How are you celebrating the holidays this year?

Not pictured is the Thanksgiving turkey decor in the front yard. I like decorating for lots of different holidays. ☺️

I can't wait to spend the holidays playing Pokémon Legends on my Twitch!

I feel so much better since starting antidepressants. I've finally gotten my passion back for my hobbies, which is something I haven't felt in a long time. It feels good to have the motivation to do what makes me happy again.
