I ordered a custom-sized Star Wars costume for a birthday party thing next in LA next Thursday, but I’m starting to doubt it will arrive on time, so I ordered a backup.

I’ll wear it if I have to, but I’d much prefer something I can stack layers under: the venue’s lake adjacent; it’s going to be cold

Plus, even with tights, that’s going to be a very short hemline on 6,1” me. Like, _mini_.

That said, … 🤔… the perk to the dress is how uncomfortable it will prolly make all the cishet dudes at this thing. That appeals to my inner gremlin; I sometimes love making people uncomfortable.

@nicole It's only short when you discover that 'long enough while standing' is 'a wee bit too short when sitting' 😅 (I'm 6'2 🙈)
But I had a great conference time 🙃

@sashag 😂 Things I will be sure to check on your advice!

On the bright side, you look fantastic in that outfit!

@nicole Thank you! First I was a bit irritated that the conference didn't offer a wardrobe so I had to take my coat into the audience. Then I thought: "Ah, well, have to keep it on my lap … wait … that's good!" 😅

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
