Also the last day. Not open as long (as it always is for cons) but still got a lot of nice stuff. But I also get a lot of cards from people and never really say much about any of them, so here goes.
I got a signed photo from a Robin Slonina from the show Skin Wars. Haven’t seen it so now I think I will. Something from Crown Jewels Entertainment, with a promocode, dragcon, for 10% first booking. Wigs by vanity, with a coupon code, dragcon2016, 20% off your next ÜberRiah (not sure what that is but i’m guessing a type of wig). AssTricks Apparel. Arda Wigs, and for 10% your next wig use code, ardadragcon2016. Met some people form the show Transcendent. Yummy Corsents. Sharon Sharealike who does boobs for queens and drag skins. and got to see a nice little performance form Deven Green who did a mash up of a metallica song on something else on what looked like an electric ukulele. I am also just learning she plays Betty Bowers. I hugged her to, that makes me so happy. I know I got some more stuff from others, but seems to of lost track or not enough info for a site I can share.
Well, that was slightly crazier then I expected. I walked around the exhibit hall taking photos, and now and then you would hear an announcement over the speakers in what sounds like Ru Pauls voice. One I remember was about someones van with a personal plate on it, and asking to move it or their car will be keyed. Yeah, that would cause me to run faster, but it was so funny to hear. There was a panel for genderbendering in comics and cosplay a friend was in. Checked that out and after it was over went to cover more of the event. I don’t have much experience in hanging around drag queens, but a lot of them seemed really tall, and were really funny. Then again, drag is a form of entertainment I believe is meant to impress and humor.
Got so much, and yet, so little. And of course you are going to hear a mass of complaints from people talking about how they just needed one more piece and never came to happen, causing people to believe it’s all rigged. In a sense, yes, but at least we all got some coupons to use. So in a way, we win a little.
So I came across this story the other day, and I do understand the frustration. More so one one issue talked about that’s not like I haven’t noticed before, pride is a big event, and a lot of companies want to take advantage of it. I do myself because, I want to take photos, and it is a good place to promote myself. That and the gays and they love me. More so when my hair is long, and it will be again when I’m in West Hollywood again this year. You have no idea how excited I am. And this idea came along. I’m happy with it, Lets see what I can make of it.
I like Miitomo, wasn’t exactly what I was expecting but enjoyed more then I though none the less. Sadly I’m hardly on and seems everyone else is the same way. But one thing I really like is that it randomly creates photos of some rather funny things like this. I need to open it more often.
Well, I found it, and wasn’t to hard to find either. But it also turns out there was another rally nearby for immigration rights (which is what I thought this was about), so I don’t understand why these people don’t get together to work on what I believe would be similar causes. Anyways, took awhile for them to start moving, I was getting kind go bored with the speeches and it’s harder to take photos when everyone is compacted in such a small area. I understand the plight, and have no problem bringing awareness, I guess it’s just my patents.
I’m kind of excited for this, I remember hearing about it last year but ended up forgetting about it soon after, and by the time I find myself reminded it was to late to do anything. But this year should be it, and I’m going to start getting myself ready soonish to join this party. Can’t wait.
