update after preliminary trim + styling: she turned out gud & Katsucon was gr8

(h/t @archety-pal the Pal to my Cam as ever)

more to come etc

on one hand: new wig for Cam! have been nitpicking the previous one for quite a few months now & finally gave up on sunk cost. am pleased with this one's color & texture - it's also remarkably close to suitable straight out of the box, with the wig cap on and all my too much hair stuffed under it

on the other hand: i Will be straightening some of it before i trim it because right now she is dangerously. Sphere.

ANYWAY IT'S KATSUCON CRUNCH TIME SEE YOU THERE MOFOS

"The piece had been assembled from fragments, manually, and not by a bone magician. [...] It had been painstakingly—passionately—laboriously reassembled, from the skull of someone who, soon after death or symptomatically during, had exploded."

this is an accountability post but Things Are Happening Now

(inspired by @nil-elk's depiction of Harrow Nova here)

oh harrow nova cosplay aspirations we're really in it now

[featherbreak]

since spotify wrapped is coming today i just want to bring awareness to the fact that around 86% of the songs on spotify are currently demonetized since spotify decided that tracks with under 1,000 cannot be monetized. not only that the ceo of spotify cashed out $35.8 million dollars in spotify shares in the third quarter of the year and it has been reported that he earns more than the top artists on the platform.

for a platform that claims to support artists, this is outrageous and i hope people realize that an artist who is starting out, cannot make a living out of spotify streams simply because daniel ek and his friends made it worse for the artists trying to start a career. if you wanna support musicians and the possibility for them to get a living wage please follow United Musicians and Allied Workers (UMAW) which are trying to make The Living Wage for Musicians Act a reality so musicians can be paid fairly through streaming platforms and get the cut they deserve.

USE ME. (a cinematic Camilla Hect cosplay music video)

notes & TWs:

TW for fake blood. heart crimes abound. I filmed all of this during 3 days of intense hyperfixation in October/November 2023, and after much Life Happened, edited it all together in June/July 2024. it is a labor of love, an embarrassing love letter to the more-unhinged-than-she-lets-on codependent cavalier exemplar that is Camilla Hect, and an intense appreciation for the "psychosexual mess of roleplaying and bad meals" that is Nona the Ninth.

i hope you enjoy it. i have more thoughts & stills to share, but i need to fling this into the internet before i continue to overthink it and utterly lose my nERVE AFTER ALL THESE MONTHS AAJFSkdhgfdhg
