    Last picture, green kimono, right next to the cowboy and the anthropomorphic bouquet: she is not having a good time

      Right behind Moominpappa as well. I did not know that the cartoon was popular enough in Japan that someone would actually make a moomin costume.

        Probably as a clerk for a disgruntled 50-year old dude who doesn’t understand why he can’t slap female workers on the ass anymore.

      I was wondering if she’s just wearing what that you’d normally wear for a Japanese university graduation ceremony, or if that’s also cosplay…

            That’s a demon. Burn it? Freeze it? Burn that one I think. Whatever it is, it’s clearly warpspawn.

              It’s a biblically accurate angel, I think. Though why it also looks like a furby, I don’t know.

              /Edit unautocorrected furry back to furby.

                  I explicitly typed furby, apparently the autocorrect decided I was wrong.

                  Fixed, and thanks!

                  Oh, and I still remember queuing up to buy one of the first ones for a younger sibling.

                  I wouldn’t describe them as evil. Evil is far too mild a word. 😅

            Weird how they did all that nice work on the feathers, mouth, eyes, etc and then used a couple of old hotel towels for the ear fabric.

    This is where Jobu Tupaki pulls her outfits from! Infinite variations of this graduation ceremony leads to kickass outfits to slum around the multiverse in!

        Ill be honest. I hear this furry in IT thing in the fedivers all the time and I was in IT for a long time. Decades. Also I went to cons and knew furries. To my knowledge no one I knew in IT was a furry. If they were they did not have the slightest indication by anything on their desk.

          Programmers are more likely to be Gamers™ than furries. And the myth that they are leftist/liberal/trans is also a lie. A few famous ones are. The vast majority are just regular dudes (with signifact portion of the being chuds/incels/libertarians/right-wingers/etc).

            can’t say I have really seen the super right wing types either. at most maybe idealistic libertarian. one trans. I mean I have had to have worked closely with at least 100 it folks in my career and many other that were around but maybe I did not work as directly with.

            back in the day furries where at general fandom cons. it was kinda sad when they got their own as there was a con in the area that was known for furries and klingons.

          I think its more like a general statistic.

          Furries are still a small minority of all people, so the chance your IT crowd has furries is not high.

          But on average a furry does have a higher chance to be working in IT.

          Same with people who are trans.

          There is some natural logic to it. People who are a little different and not always accepted discover a safe haven in computers to connect to like minded people that do accept them. The internet has changed a lot and has become more hostile so those same people went in deeper to arrange and safeguard their own communities.

          When your IT crowd does include such people there is also a big chance their not going to tell cause bias and stigma.

    Any good soul knows the name of that cardboard robot? I want to make one for Halloween.
