I made the "Starfleet boys kissing!" specifically for my buddies pansyfilmmaker and blackvinylangel who are indeed those hot Starfleet boys. They're in the fan series Hidden Frontier.

You don't like STFU? Well, all I have to say to that is, this is what you're doing... ;)

And Joshua's device is, well, Joshua's SCA device (and no I can't remember the proper SCA heraldry) - a cow on a blue field on the top half, a blue feather on a white field on the bottom half. The blue feather is self-evident, and the cow is my trademark in the SCA (started off as a joke but soon blossommed into what it is today). Although I like the design, and EVERYONE at Pennsic knows it's me, I must admit I've grown tired of the cow jokes and may eventually come up with an entirely new device.

It's been so way overdone. Not that I don't appreciate all the nice things people get me, because I do, but I think the joke has run its course.

I'm just glad I found this out before I made the cow-spotted pavilion I was always talking about...

I'm gonna sing the Doom Song!

I belong to a group called the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), which is basically a Ren Faire but we do it for fun and for ourselves (rather than for profit and for the public). Every year I go to a huge event in Pittsburgh called the Pennsic War.

In the SCA you are encouraged to choose a persona in period (600 - 1600 CE, plus the year 1650), do the research on the place and period that persona would be from, dress accordingly, etc. They also have a whole system set up, called the College of Heralds, to register your name (so it'll always be uniquely yours) and a device, or coat of arms. Very strict rules on the look and layout of your device, but that's mine - a cow on a blue field over a blue feather on a white field.

The blue feather is for Clan Blue Feather, which is the LGBT household in the SCA. I run the camp at Pennsic, plus a big bash we have, the Blue Feather Ball. Much fun. :) The cow is a long-running joke I've had at Pennsic - at like my 2nd one (this year will be my sweet 16th, I believe) my uncle decided to throw a cow-themed party, so we all made cow-themed garb. Unfortunately it turned out to be the nicest piece of garb I owned at the time, so I wore it often enough that it got associated with me, and thus the joke was born. I now am required to wear it once per Pennsic so everyone can have a good laugh. At first I embraced the schtick, but I must admit that after 15 years it's grown wearisome. Sadly, I didn't learn this lesson before I finally got around to registering my device about 5 years ago or so, so now I'm kind of stuck with it (or at least until I decide to come up with another device, but it's a difficult process and takes a long time). So for the moment... well, there it is. Moo. :)

You got a problem with queer Mickey? Huh? Do ya? HUH?

And Hermey is there because I was compared to him by some people. {glares accusingly at gingy}

You do know he is leaving Disney, yes? It's possible Roy Disney could come back into the fold after he does. :D
