Con Report: Everfree NW.
8 years ago
Being taught to avoid talking about Politics and Religion has led to a lack of understanding of Politics and Religion. What we should have been taught was how to have a civil conversation about a difficult topic.
I did a one day venture to Everfree NW. The Pacific Northwests My Little Pony Convention.
I arrived well early, and was prepared to pay the $35 for the single day. I was Not prepared to pay the $10 additional for parking. I had three goals, to meet Tim Fay, (Timpany) KT, Kinky Turtle, and Dana Simpson. Of those, I only was able to meet Dana Simpson. I had hoped to get one of her books, but she had sold out early. I had someone tweet to Tim, but he was unable to respond. I had thought to get an autograph from one of the Voice Actors, but the Con wanted $40 for the privilege. I picked up a Princess Luna Cutiemark pin, some smallish art cards, (to my surprise, there was an Amalthiea art card from The Last Unicorn there) I made that artist's day by wearing my one MLP t-shirt, the My Little Unicorn shirt that kinda mixed the two franchises, which was good for her, as she had not seen anyone she did not know wear that design. Picked up assorted little other sundries, but on the whole, I can give the whole thing a great big Meh. There will have to be compelling reasons to go next year.
