I was the Riddler this past Halloween! Description copypasted from Tumblr:

  

My Halloween costume!

 

❓❓❓RIDDLE ME THIS.❓❓❓

 

Guess how much fun I had with this costume. (:

 

So yeah, it’s 80% Batman: The Animated Series Riddler, 3% Arkham City Riddler (I tried to get the glasses as close to that as I could), and the rest is an even mix between what I would wear if I was the Riddler and “Shit, I’m going to have to slog around outside in the mud at the Renaissance Festival Sunday and do 8 hours of stocking at work on Halloween, so let’s work around that.” I also slapped on an obnoxious combination of my holographic unicorn eyeshadow and my green eyeliner, because you cannot tell me that the Riddler wouldn’t wear obnoxious green and purple eye makeup if he wore makeup. I generally take a backpack with me to the Renaissance Festival, so I got a purple one and threw on some question mark buttons and a patch to Riddler it up.

 

So yeah, half of my costume is crap that was already in my wardrobe.

 

- Jacket, shirt, jeans (obvs.): shit I already had

- Hat: Nethats.com

- Tie: Zazzle

- Vintage question mark brooch: eBay

- Earrings: Made them from question mark charms I got online somewhere and ear wires I had in my craft stash.

- Socks: One of those Halloween stores’ websites

- Chucks: The Converse website (because I totally need more Chuck Taylor low tops)

- Backpack: One of those rando sellers on Amazon

- Question mark buttons: Zazzle

- Question mark patch: KrauseKreation on Etsy

- Big purple sunglasses: They were forgotten by an annoying group of people next to us years ago at the Fire Up the Night fireworks competition.

 

My costume seems to be pretty successful, judging from the positive feedback I got at the Renaissance Festival, at work, and from the notes on my previous post featuring this costume. :)

 

(Also: None of my greens match and I don’t care.)

 

sterling silver ring. nice design... found it on www.iluren.com/ring_p1.html

I spotted this question mark sunning up in a tree. I gently shook the tree and the butterfly flew to another tree and landed on the trunk. My first good butterfly shot of the year.

 

Identification: Forewing hooked; upperside is red-orange with black spots. Upperside hindwing of summer form is mostly black with a short tail; that of winter form has much orange and a longer, violet-tipped tail. Underside is light brown; hindwing with pearly white question mark in center.

 

Caterpillar hosts: American elm (Ulmus americanus), red elm (Ulmus rubra), hackberry (Celtis), Japanese hop (Humulus japonicus), nettles (Urtica), and false nettle (Boehmeria cylindrica).

That's actually the name of this butterfly, there is one called a Comma too but I've not seen one yet. The latin name is Polygonia interrogationis. Isn't it a beauty? This guy and all the other butterflies that I've been posting are working on some sap that is coming out of two of our Oak trees. You can see a bunch of green beetles that have invited themselves to the party as well.

**Part of a set I am doing in reference to the alphabet**

 

Q is for “Question…?”

 

I think it’s important to question things. Why are we in this situation? How did we get here? Why are things the way they are? What are we doing to better the situation?

 

I think the majority of people just sit dormant for most of their lives and take things for granted. It’s easy to do that. Honestly it’s harder to sit there and question things. It takes some effort.

 

But that is how things happen. That is how CHANGE happens. Change is often a good thing. But I think the majority of humans get anxious about change. They are scared of it. Even if they are in a half shit situation, they’d rather keep the consistency of that than the frightened idea of changing it. That’s why people keep shitty ass jobs they don’t like. That’s why people stick around with shitty ass people they don’t want to associate with. Or live in a place where they don’t want to be. Not only does change start with questioning all of that. But it leads to actually doing something about it. Call it drive. Or push. Or what I like to refer to it as, taking some fucking initiative.

 

But getting back to questions. All the people in history who are remembered and who are considered by most accounts “great” asked questions. Look around you and ask, do the research, and figure it out. You’d be surprised with some of the answers you’ll find.

A giant yellow question mark on the outside of Cammel Lairds shipyard - just between the two doors. Part of the Biennial 2006. Took this picture from the top of the Anglican cathedral with my phone so it ain't brilliant.

Another shot of the question mark. This shot taken last spring.

A real cloud! I did reverse the image horizontally so the question mark was facing the right way :-)

 

What an interesting-looking caterpillar! I believe it is a Question Mark. Please correct, if I am wrong! Seen on August 31, 2013 in the Dr. Bill Roston Native Butterfly House in Springfield-Greene County Botanical Center at Nathanael Greene/Close Memorial Parks in Springfield, Missouri, USA.

Here is my first Question Mark of the year.

These are all paper balls - ammunition for these 'pea' shooters we have. Make for fantastic fun at a family dinner. Also make a great photo full of colour.

What better sculpture for a library than a question mark? "Question Mark" is a new sculpture created by Rosario Marquardt and Roberto Behar and funded through a gift from the Madison Public Library Foundation. Photo by library staff.

Right next to the pavement that says 10...

The Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis) is a fairly common butterfly in Massachusetts. The larvae feed on elm and nettle, and some adults overwinter in hibernation.

Dernière étape : assembler le tout et coller. Fini! Merci DrWhoJr pour ton super tuto!

Last step : assemble the umbrella and stick. Finished! Thank you DrWhoJr for your brilliant tutorial!

This is my first real experiment with photoshop. I don't think that this is an original kind of picture, but it is quite representative right now.

Just a bit more than a month and I will move to another country (again) and I still don't know what I am going to do there.

I have so many dreams and projects, so many things that I would like to do and so little self confidence to take my chance for real.

A question mark is exactly how my head feels.

 

I am more than open to suggestions and critics.

I spotted this butterfly as I walked down to the lake next to our apartment complex to feed the ducks. I believe it is a Question Mark with its winter coat on. You have to love the colour - really autumnal.

Question Mark at the Balcones Canyonlands NWR, TX 100425. Polygonia interrogationis.

The little bit of 'punctuation' on the hindwing of this butterfly is the clue to its identity. This was taken on Short Swamp Road in Brandon.

the show was amazing. They're always amazing. I saw 'em twice a few years back. He and his band haven't lost the skills at all. What would garage punk be without ?
