Certainly Strange

So soon now, only one week

I am too excited about this silly thing and the silly joke costume I did

So apparently the next Castro Night Market is going to be Renaissance themed

This was like a Sign. The perfect alignment of my interests. So I knew, of course, I had to try to make the Art Thou Nasty Tudor booty shorts.

I’m still trying outfit ideas for the big day, I haven’t really decided on anything for sure yet. So I’ll save the final outfit reveal for the big day. But it is Tudor era. And, well, Castro. So obviously it needs a huge codpiece. For historical accuracy!

My attempt/pattern turned out I think a good deal shorter than the original meme shorts. But. Again. It is the Castro Night Market. Being shorter is like a feature. Tudor Era Daisy Dukes.

We went to go see Chuck Tingle talk, and he was amazing. Goofy and fun, but also heartfelt and sincere. He had fun with jokes but he also would share his frank beliefs about winning through love, and how humans essentially exist for and because of love and community.

And he gave the talk at the Internet Archive! Which was a fun place to visit in and of itself.
