This might be a weird take, but I think self-care is an important part of being Eco-friendly. Let's use my Ewok #cosplay as an example. I wanted to wear it, with all of its fuzzy bra silliness, to an early spring con. I knew I would be chilly, so I made a shawl that fit the vibe of the cosplay. ⬇️

So I finally watched the Abracadabra music video and that primal scream in the middle must've hit something in me because why am I crying?

🧵1/3 My current big #cosplay build will be mostly second hand materials or stuff I already had in my stash. Fabric sources: estate sale, pants that didn't fit me, FB marketplace destash sale. I have also purchased new materials for this cosplay: wigs, nylon glove, decorative cording, etc.

I think this is one of the most important things I've read in the last 24 hours. "Do the next right thing. Don't try to do all of your activism all at once. Focus on your specialty." My blog is, at its core, anti-capitalist. It's worth it to keep going.

Somehow I missed the memo on Feeds for this app, and now I'm happily scrolling through only mutuals' accounts and I might switch to cat pictures in a minute.

Do not dunk. Do not quote-post. Do not screenshot and repost. They wish to be visibly cruel because it makes them feel big and strong. Block them with the most powerful block button we've had on social media to save yourself the energy, and save others from the garage being spread

I'm watching a calm aesthetic ball gown making video on YouTube. It would be a relaxing experience if my dog didn't think scissors sounded like barking 🥲

I keep seeing fluffy ball gown content and I might need to make another fluffy dress cosplay.

Hey there! I'm Dewfeathers, cosplayer and environmentalist with a Master's Degree in biology. Sustainability in cosplay is my passion and I love to talk about it. I have been running my Reduce, Reuse, ReCosplay panel since 2020 and started my blog on the topic in 2022.

I got to meet some Ravens and I did it while wearing my hobbit skirt! When Z and I went to London last September, I really wanted to make sure I got to meet some Ravens at the Tower of London. Why? ⬇️

Another step away from fast fashion in cosplay is to make your cosplays -last-. Line that cosplay, finish that seam, reinforce that stress point. Make them ✨️DURABLE✨️ and you'll have costumes you can wear for years.

Mark Zuckerberg scrapped fact-checking from Meta platforms. He's also added Trump ally Dana White to Meta's board and is helping fund his inauguration. Why is Zuckerberg kissing Trump's ring? Perhaps it's because of the FTC's antitrust lawsuit against Meta. Follow the money.
