They're both so cute, but I really love the KH Twilight! So cool.

When I saw that you'd be vending next to me I looked up your plushies and fell in love with your unique style. I'm sad that I don't get to meet you now. I really hope that whatever it is that's going on clears up for you.

I was sad to see that Peruser couldn't make it (I'm in 27, right next door). But I've always loved your art and style, so I'm excited to be your vendor neighbor!

Love the colors on the hangar swirl bar.

I know your post is meant to be a little sarcastic, but honestly? I think you're doing your duty plenty. Speaking personally, your comics have been at times an essential source of joy and whimsy for a lot of people, including me. We all need that. Besides, everyone fights in their own way, right?

Oh good, you had me worried for a sec there.

I know that some pony cons have invited local game and comic shops to have a table, which honestly does make sense to me, but big box stores would be totally weird.

Woah, has this actually happened?

The windmill is so upsetting. They vended next to me at Trot and seemed nice and normal. Ffs

This is the key to adult cool, I think. Enjoying what makes you happy and giving zero fucks if anybody else thinks you're cringe.

Agreed. Driving is such an adventure sometimes.

One of the other perks of driving to and from cons? Supporting local businesses and the interesting things that they help distribute locally.

We get to talk to so many people about our travels and lives, and everyone exchanges stories and cultures!

Please drive to cons!!!

Thanks to the generosity and interest of the lovely @everfreenw.com attendees, I'm running out of several soap bars! Come snag some of your favorite characters before they disappear until next year!

A Last Word. Because that's my favorite drink and what I'd share with any potential new friend.

Hey @everfreenw.com crowd!

If you're wondering what smells so good in the vendor hall, wonder no longer.

It's soap. Pony soap!

Come check out Sweethaven Soaps and Sundry at table 16 (and even ask about our all natural or sensitive skin options). Remember everyone needs soap!

Seriously this is super fun.

You deserve an apology. Please keep us updated, many of us are basing our decision about whether or not to attend Trotcon next year on if management does the right thing here.

Reflecting on TrotCon 2025 There’s a reason I hesitated to write this. I’m not the kind of person who likes to stir the pot. I believe in second chances, in giving people grace, and in the power of community. If My Little Pony...

After pouring everything I had into TrotCon 2025, I left feeling broken. This is my story — not to stir drama, but to call for better.
I still believe in what this con could be.

All the Colors I Can See We all know the song. I’m here to show you who I am. Throw off the veil, it’s finally time. There’s more to me than glitz and glam And now I feel the stars align. Roughly three years ago, about t...

I wrote a blog on Fimfiction that covers my gender epiphany, faith transition, and MLP conventions. I'm very proud of it.

Hey Celestia says there's no wrong way to fantasize.

While it’s still pride month, Milo and Ozy would like to remind you that just like them, you have lots to be proud of. 🦄🦊💜

Oils and fats before melting.

Blending with a stick blender after adding lye and goat's milk powder.

Mostly done with the cooking process. The consistency is like Vaseline.

Adding the natural colorant: spirulina powder dispersed in oil.

Did my first attempt at hot process soap today. All natural, with spirulina powder as a colorant and rose essential oil as fragrance.

That's really cool!

And if you haven't tried them yet, maybe some of the more tactical or exploration based board games might be your style, even narrative-heavy ones like Descent 2

Shorter campaigns do tend to be more goal-focused.

It's a long-shot, but if you do like the more expansive world-building of a setting you want to get lost in, but also prefer the more focused tone of shorter campaigns, maybe you could find a West Marches style DnD game to be a part of.

Has your past experience been shorter campaigns, like one-shots, or longer ones?

...it can be a real turn-off to goal-focused players.

It may be that you need to find a table that runs closer to your style of preferred play, with players and DM having a clear vision of what the game is going to look like. (3/3)

...while still more might enjoy tactical encounters. One thing I've found with onboarding new players is that I like to manage expectations about what kind of game I am running. If a game is going to be open-world, with lots of exploration and open-ended quests (2/3)

Not at all! I can get that way sometimes too.

There are all different kinds of players, and all different kinds of groups. Is it possible that the group you wound up in simply is there to experience a different aspect of the game?

Some players love social encounters, some enjoy exploration (1/3)

I have been both playing and running DnD for over twenty years now, from 2nd edition to 5th.

That speech was amazing, and the results filled me with hope. I wish we had more people like you in every state legislature, especially mine. Thank you.
