Today I was at some small comic store in burbank. A friend wanted some others to come down in cosplay and I was going to be Timmy, because I felt lazy as always but couldn’t find my pink shirt. I grabbed my coat and went all black and decided to be Neo from Matrix. Good thing because it also rained. There were a few other people there also dressed up, like this guy going as Green Arrow, who wa also selling pop figurines. It was a nice little place, and I recommend checking it out if you are in the area.
I do remember this kind of talk before the election, and even Trump himself said he will only accept the outcome if he wins. What kind of person says that? I feel bad for the people who voted for him, believe he has them in his best interest when watching his behavior after all this time, and what else I’ve learned about the guy, I really don’t think so. And with the people he is selecting to be in his cabinet this is getting worse then I though. I know he’s talked to Romney, which I really hope that doesn’t happen, because then I will look at that epic meeting we had with sadness.
It’s been getting cold again, and wildlife like this are likely going into hibernation. Not sure how it works with roadrunners really. I’m also pretty bored lately and don’t have anything big coming up till Santacon in a few weeks. I’m excited as always. But int he mean tie it’s about waiting for what else is happening between now and then.
As everyone knows that I’ve always has a fascination with superheroes since I was a little kid. Four shows I’ve been watching form the start are coming together that are part of the DC TV universe. Loosely based off of Invasion! I am excited for next week.
I’m seeing more and more stories of what is known as the alt-right movement giving praise to Donald Trump. All the behavioral patterns I keep seeing show signs of fascist ideologies. I’ve seen groups like the KKK, neo-nazis, and even holocaust deniers show support to trump. I once came across a quote from a guy who said “When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labeled “made in Germany”; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, “Americanism.””
This was said back in the 1930’s, and it did exactly that with a group known as the German American Bund. We are watching this rise once again, calling themselves patriots, and welcoming the concept of nationalism. This is going to be a very strange four years.
Kind of amazing how the dogs first came home 4 years ago. They were so little, and they are still small, but got much bigger then I expected. Still pretty funny to me how the cat i had at the time was so unhappy, but I expected them. I didn’t expect her to start liking them so fast.
I can’t remember what the performance was from, but it wasn’t a sing and dance routine. Seemed more like reciting. I believe it was something in relation to Sleeping Beauty, I don’t know, but everyone enjoyed it.
