We’re back to the hypocrisy sweepstakes, where gestures of virtue are as formalized as kabuki. Humor has been assassinated. An off word at work or school will get you booted to the gallows. This is the graveyard of liberalism, whose once noble ideals have turned spectral and vampiric.

Another Dragon*Con and, hence, another long weekend with downtown Atlanta being beautified by bevies of Cosplay babes. And no, there’s no hoarding going on that I know of. I just couldn’t resist using it in the title… because Dragon*Con!

Yes, that is – and has been to some extent for decades – a conventional truth. At anime, comic, and sci-fi cons, boys will be girls. 😆
But, you what? I’ve never cared; nor have most of us who attend the cons. It’s always been for laughs – and attention, but all cosplay is for that. It’s along the lines of a costume party, not real cross-dressing or transsexualism.

A Risen Dragon – Dragon Con That Is, And Only Sort Of
So, in something resembling defiance of the long haul panicdemic, Dragon Con has resumed this year and currently as of this writing in session. True, they’ve deliberately limited the number of attendees to only slightly above half their normal number, and certain favorite, public events have been left off the schedule, but the convention is happening.
So, in support of Dragon Con, here are some lovely cosplay babes, since they’re actually the favorite part of SciFi conventions like Dragon Con for many attendees. And, like the convention itself, posts like this are something of a tradition with me. 😉

Scifi/Fantasy conventions are, if not the most, then one of the most hard-hit of “industries” by the pandemic has been conventions. They essentially went out of existence in 2020 and many of them will take years to recover … if they recover and resume at all.
So, to add to the effects of the Concellation 2021 FB group – a group as ragtag, chaotic, and eclectic as any Con, Gods bless them – here’s a grouping of cosplay babes for our mutual enjoyment.

Yeah, the Dems are barefaced liars, as Americans well know. As always, they’re liars and enemies of we, the People, and they’re ever so conspicuously barefaced during their Nation Convention.
Funny how their events and/or “gatherings” of their constituencies aren’t in the least subject to protective mask laws, social distancing laws, or mandatory lock-downs. But you sure as Hell better not try to go to church, have friends over, or open your business.
Funnier still how these same vermin are dead set against in-person voting for the upcoming 2020 elections. I mean really dead set if they actually believe in what they say. 😆
So They Protest In-Person Against Voting In-Person
There sure does seem to be a disconnect here. Well, it would seem so if the Dems weren’t barefaced liars and if their “concern” over COVID-19 was actually based upon health instead of overthrowing the POTUS that Americans elected.
