Is it Ever Okay to Wear "Blackface" for My Cosplay?
When is "black-facing" okay? Personally, as a POC cosplayer, I go out of my way to find characters of color such as Static Shock, Yoruichi, Esmeralda, etc—to cosplay so I can potentially be "cannon" in my cosplay but I also cosplay fun characters like Natsu, Mizore, Raven, and others because my skin color doesn't dictate what I can and cannot cosplay. Not once have I ever thought, "I should lighten my skin" for a non-POC character, so why is the cosplay community suddenly a breeding ground for "black-face" cosplayers?

Money and Power
Money. Power. The people that lead us, the people that teach us, have no clue either. They tell us yes, they tell us no, but what the fuck do they show?

Jones in My Bones
It was the chemistry between us, I laughed with you. You became my best friend, then you were my boo. It was so magnetic the way I was drawn to you. The way that your hands connect to my body when you touched me, ooh. A feeling of comfort as if I already knew you. I was speaking to me and you were speaking to you, while in a room full of people, but it seemed as if it was just us two.

Petscop Analysis
I heard about Petscop from a Game Theory video. The subtitle for the video was, "The Scariest Game You'll Never Play." And I thought instantly, that's bullshit, click-bait. I've deleted tons of crappy emails or scrolled while rolling my eyes past tons of comments of what they call "creepy pasta," that is, cut-and-pasted, internet-circulated horror stories, often having to do with urban legends about haunted video games.
