12:35p SOME IMPORTANT THINGS YOU SHOULD ALL REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO
okay basically I am doing two or three things in this post, and if you have any other major WAIT WHAT kind of questions, ask them now
ONE: "I heard you weren't doing the Otakon fashion show this year! What the hell?" Okay it's true I 99% won't be going to Otakon this year, but that's no reason the show shouldn't go on. As things stand, I'm thinking I'll run more or less the same show as the '09 show, but... remotely. (I may not even be in the country at the time.) I will gather the designers, recruit the models, bully those who need bullying and bribe those who need bribing, and I will explain all of this to Head of Panels. Who's with me? :V I know some people are worried some crispy-laced noob is going to substitute their own terrible show, and we need to keep the show as glam as we always do.
TWO: "Wait, out of the country?" Suffice to say I maaaay be going to Australia this summer. For two weeks in July, if Priceline is not faggy. Maybe even if Priceline is faggy. It's like 80% sure at this point. I'm trés excited
THREE: "I like, never see you anymore. Throw a party, asshole." OKAY I've always wanted to throw a lolita sewing party, and since I have three working hardcore machines now and a big table at which to put them all (plus any other machines that might be brought), I thought, why not? I'm thinking January 7th or 8th, when loli_fied is going to be in town, and probably yuki_dragon as well. I can provide some fabric and thread and elastic and such, but not all. Definitely you'd be bringing your own lace and trims. Who would be interested in going?

Sometimes I don't know what to do about friendships.
On one hand I really hate passive-aggressive people. And yes this is largely due to having been raised by the Empress of Passive Aggression, my mother. And yes even though I hate them, I always seem to make friends with them. I think that one of the many unspoken myths about women is that while we might look for our fathers in our romantic relationships, we look for our mothers in our friendships. (This is an unscientific statement so don't make a thing out of it).
This year I have had three separate friendships decay due to passive-aggressive behavior on the part of the other person. I have examined my behavior in each relationship and I have thus far found myself to not be the one at fault. And this is an honest statement. I know my flaws when it comes to friendship:
-I don't show enough love/appreciation to my really good friends and I never call enough. -I am self-centered and disinterested in the lives of others so that I've had to really train myself to care/listen to my friends. -I'm a bitch and I can't resist being critical towards others. I am also incredibly sarcastic and kind of mean. See also: bossy. -I think I know everything. (And I do). -I am so stubborn you want to choke me.
As for the good points about me... well I'll leave that to others to determine. But I know that the one thing that I do is genuinely repent for my misdeeds and I never lie to my friends if I can help it. I try to be honest and up front if something upsets me or I just forget about it and don't hold a grudge. My anger never brews for more than an hour before I have it out and whenever you call my shit on the carpet with solid proof of my asinine behavior I am instantly apologetic. This is something that I figured out once I finally left my mother's house when I was sixteen. Blowing up at people and getting the shit cleared is a lot more healthy than letting things stew.
I have another bad friendship habit, which is to allow toxic friendships to brew. Most of the time I assume that it takes a lot of effort to be around me so when people are friendly towards me I tend to tolerate their flaws quite a bit because I know I have enormous ones of my own. But the fact is there is a ratio of tolerance to bullshit that is acceptable and once that ratio gets too ridiculous the friendship is toxic.
I don't ask for much out of my friends. I expect loyalty, no grudges, and patience. In return I give the same and I show my generosity in any way that I can. The fact is I would beat the blood and shit out of anyone who harmed a good friend of mine. No questions asked. Even if my friend peed on their lawn. Too bad I'm prejudiced like that.
I suspect that these three friendships ended in passive-aggressive bullshit because I appear to be largely indifferent towards such moves. It seems easy to dump emotional bullshit on me because I'm stoic or irritated most of the time but I rarely allow myself to be hurt. And this is mostly true. If one of my really close friends dumped me I'd probably cry for days-- but that's because it wouldn't end in passive-aggressive bullshit. It would end because I'd really fucked things up permanently.
At the same time, I have a real thing about discourtesy because I feel like even moderately-close friends should behave with courtesy or at least grow the nuts to confront me about things that upset me. Doing something stupid like "Well I am just going to sekretly defriend u and then ttly not talk to u ever again! *INTERNET VENDETTA*" makes me laugh my ass off and then scowl. Because honestly how could anyone be so absolutely cowardly and stupid? Especially when the truth is that I've been spending the past year buried in work or school and haven't even had the time to ruin anyone's precious little life enough to warrant this type of treatment. It's not heartbreaking but it is like a mosquito bite. Goes away in a week or so but irritating as hell while it lasts.
This is precisely why I often fantasize about committing outrageous acts of violence against women. Maybe I've had the good fortune to never befriend passive-aggressive male, although a lot of this is due to the fact that I don't really consider them men but small ants to crush underneath my adorable high heels. When it comes to girls, I am socially conditioned to expect them to be socially conditioned to be emotional wimps and full of girly bullshit, so I guess I have more tolerance towards that then I have for men doing that since I expect men to settle things with duels or fist fights or nuclear war or something sensible.
Bleh. Okay this went on for tooo long and let me tell you "Shine" by Booty Luv is my fucking jam!

Even if you don't believe in global warming or climate change, surely we can all agree that pollution is an overall bad thing, relying on a non-renewable energy resource is stupid, and that there is a surprising amount of non-biodegradable shit lying around that will take up room that we might be using for our gigantic and exploding population?

So I was watching a youtube video and this guy is running around the hospital room where his newborn son is with mummy and this idiot is pretty much like:
Idiot New Father: Blahblgaah My son! blah blah! blah! *stick camera in everyone's face* Hey honey when do they start feeding?
Mother:... ... .. dun... know
Idiot New Father: BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH *STICKING CAMERA EVERYWHERE* LET ME ASK ANOTHER QUESTION!
Mother... ...k
Idiot New Father: So how do you feel, honey?
Me: HOW DO YOU THINK, MOTHERFUCKER?
