We will be getting in Pasadena again, and I’ll be taking photos. If you wish to join feel free as a clown or a runner. If you decide to be a clown, you are asked to be something fun, nothing scary.
Oh, and did you all see the new Star Wars Trailer. Two months left till it comes out. So excited.
So this happened today. As we do every year we started in North Hollywood, took the red line and got off on Highland. We then walked to Vine and then back to Highland. Scared...
I hear all kinds of claims about all kinds of people. All it does is fuel hatred and some people don’t even take the time to confirm it. Things like the muslim prayer curtains, which is outright bogus. And another about one of Mitt Romney’s sons that I heard about in 2012 which didn’t sound right to me. No, I don’t agree with the guy on a number of issues but I do believe in honesty.
Or the claim about Ann Coulter saying she doesn’t think women should have the right to vote. Wait, hold on, I did hear her say that, a few yards in front of me during the debate she was in during Politican. And something about one vote per household. I should know someone with video of that.
So, here is one video of what happened this weekend. Do you even want to know? only one way to check it out.
Alright, the first set are online. This was a two day event at the convention center starting on friday. It started kind of late in the day to, at 2 in the afternoon. How I found out about it was while listening to pandora and they had an ad play and one of the things that was mentioned was that there will be cosplayers. One I idea I thought of was the ex-presidents in the movie Point Break, because that would be funny. I’m sure there would of been other ideas to and seemed they did want some cosplayers to join and perhaps get them interested in politics which I don’t see as a bad thing.
Typically when at a con I go around all over the place to take photos, I think this is the first time I actually went into panels with some kind of interest. First thing I checked over, that I did’t know was going to be there was, The Art if Politics section with many political motivated art made by all kinds of people from a number of different views. No one was safe and I kind of liked that because it shows no bias. Then I went to a panel called, Mother, Mother, Mother. On it was the mothers of Michael Brown and Jordan Davis, both of which I got to hug and I enjoyed that because I felt they needed that for what they have gone through for over a year now.
After I went into Ballot Pong, held by See Political to also help explain the process in creating a ballot and getting it across. Also about how crazy some of them can be. There is some video coming of that, with another with me speaking and kind of bumbling. Not sure how that happened. Last was a panel on religious freedom with Clay Aiken on it who has been active in a political sense for some time now. After I kind of just wandered around and during the time saw the restroom signs put up. That was pretty good.
With Politicon now over, some photos taken, and I think a nice amount of video, I would say I enjoyed myself. I was entertained and informed of some good stuff. I’ll post more on that during the week, but for now I just want to share another upcoming event in the area that I’m also excited for. The Zombie Walk in Hollywood. Whats really cool is they used one of my photos from last year to make the flyer.
I didn’t get a lot of photos, but I didn’t see this event happen during. It was funny, and I have some video. Lets see how tomorrow goes.
So after… oh crap, 8 months since I was there for the video shoot and happen to be in briefly and took some photos during, it is now online. Sure took awhile, but hey, it’s up now so I’m happy. Kind of like how they did the transitions. Also, wow my hair has really grown since then.
