Happy 10 years Black Sails!

You’re a story that means so so much to me.

I’m so excited to have just started doing a podcast about this show.

Genders, Queers, & Buccaneers which you can listen to here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/genders-queers-and-buccaneers/id1720783970

“Cause shade never made anybody less gay”

I was a pretty casual Taylor Swift fan for a long time. I could name a couple of albums and had a handful of songs I really liked. When I saw the Lover body suit from the Eras tour it completely rewired my brain. I knew I *needed* to wear it. It helps that I’m friends with some hardcore swifties (hi Riza & Ronnie) who helped me get realllly into the fandom.

I had some big life accomplishments in 2023 so my reward to myself was commissioning this. It was a blast to wear at Katsucon. And while there’s some padding going on here it was scary and exciting to wear a costume that shows off my body like this.

I met so many nice swifties at the convention. I handed out friendship bracelets which seemed to be a big hit. There were a couple rude comments (most notably from a boomer who was very confused about the cosplay convention). But overall it was a wildly affirming day. And I’m gonna treasure the memories of wearing this for the first time.

Look both shows are good.

More gay pirates is better for all fans of gay pirates.

Hello Tumblr, looks like I’m back. My name is Andy and I’m a 31 year old queer nerd. I’m into cosplay, larp, miniature painting, and I run a podcast network with my husband Evin & friend Ronnie called Where They May Radio.

So I had a tumblr from 2010-2016. My last post on it was of this cosplay. I had recently come out as gay to my family and they uhhh were not happy about it. I had not mentioned my gender identity annnnd yet they had found these pictures and confronted me. I felt really violated and unsafe that they had found them. And it turned out a “friend” had sent them the link. So I deleted the tumblr and focused on twitter which I had more privacy on.

With twitter becoming an absolute mess though I’ve decided to come back here. It felt appropriate to have my first post be the Cinderella cosplay again. A lot has changed since 2016. Im not afraid anymore and I am far less ashamed of the things that bring me joy.
