And here is a #loli pick of mine #Arisia from #dc #greenlantern or at least a slightly aged down version. Plus Glitch interacting with a green lantern would be neat. Ps my picks are not meant to influence your's they are just my picks nothing more.

I never made an #introduction, so:
#Boston (MA)-ish area #tech geek (#sysadmin), working in academia.
#SquareDancer (#mwsd)(#c2)(#TechSquares )
#Narrowboat and (UK) canal obsessive.
#sciencefiction fan. (#arisia).
Not going anywhere near Line, despite being too damned ensconced in FB. Trying to quit Reddit for Lemmy.

@JennyJaybles @lukesblog1 @bookstodon I just got this as a freebie at #Arisia weekend before last as the publisher has stopped publishing and was cleaning out his closets.
I hadn’t heard of her before but now am looking forward to it.
I actually have a spare copy, too…
And I might be able to talk the publisher to see what else is in his closet…
I have run a #Renaissance Ball; I have been on a bunch of fun #panels; I have bought from the #Art Show and #Dealers Room; I have watched a really quite good #Masquerade; and as of just now, I have been through #HouseOfToast.
Masks notwithstanding, this has been a delightfully normal #Arisia, after all this time of making it up online as best we could. I'm proud of what we accomplished the past two years, but it's good to be home for reals...

#Arisia how to write through the mushy middle of a novel.
Alexander Jablokov: "Don't tell yourself that you suck. Your editor will tell you that."
#Arisia is this weekend. I was asked to return as a panelist, and I had to decline, which I'm feeling a little bummed about.
I skipped 2020 because I was heavily pregnant and Not in the Mood to make the trek, and then there was a pandemic*, so this would have been my first Arisia in four years. (Not counting the one year they did a virtual convention, but I didn't really get to experience it outside of the panels/meetups I was involved with.)
Unfortunately, they're not offering the "Turtle Track" (ages 2-5) this year. I wasn't sure how to juggle attendance with parenting in a way that let me both enjoy the convention and not just basically disappear for a weekend which is unfair to my co-parent/spouse.
* Yes, I know we're still *in* the pandemic, but they're requiring masks and bivalent boosters, and I would have felt somewhat comfortable with attending at this point in time.

I super appreciate everyone who has donated to my legal defense fund. Dealing with this lawsuit about my #MeToo blog post for so many years has been A Lot, but it helps to know the #SFF community has noticed and cares. Thank you! Every contribution helps! #Arisia https://twitter.com/crystalvisits/status/1613635056731553792

It's true -- I'm still being sued for my 2018 #MeToo blog post. I've had $40k in legal expenses so far. 😬 Any money to the GFM helps, honestly.
I'd particularly appreciate it if members of #Arisia #Boston #SFF #fandom would help, if you're able to do so. My post was for you. https://twitter.com/therisingtithes/status/1551575501218746370

Heyyyy, folks. It's hard to ask, but I could use help again. I'm still being sued for my 2018 #MeToo #Arisia blog post. I know we're all passing around the same $20, but if you're able to help out, anything helps. Lawyers are spendy.

For those who've been asking why I'm not at @arisia@twitter.com anymore, this is why. My rapist is president. Again. He's also involved with the safety processes of #Arisia, by default. Arisia has decided, after over a year of "process," that they are fine with that.
