There was a girl recently who swore she was going to make so much money as a dancer again. She started, I got her into a shitty club and said get to work.
This woman did nothing but fucking complain. Oh but my knee hurts, oh but I kind of fell when trying that trick etc etc. I knew then that she didn’t have what it takes to make money in a club.
She told me she’d go travel an hour away to a club to get into more money and I said “don’t do that you’ll hurt your own feelings.”
She asked what I meant and I stated plainly “they’re going to look you up and down and say you’re too fat sorry. You don’t have the makeup skills, hair skills, pole or floorwork nor the high class experience they need, im sorry.”
This cocky girl tried anyways and sobbed for an hour on her way home because they did exactly what I said they would do.
Do not go into dancing thinking you can walk around with undone brows, no makeup, stinky breath, horrific posture, and frizzy hair and make money. You will fail.
Wealthy men will always want put together women.

Anyone here deal with snapping hip syndrome/dancers hip?
Yesterday my hip popped which isnt uncommon because i snap crackle pop like rice crispies cereal in general but when my hip popped yesterday i froze because it HURT like really bad but i just literally walked it off. I get sciatic nerve pain that can make my hip and legs hurt but this felt different (also i cant just walk off sciatic nerve pain lmao). Today i was taking care of Cream and her brood and heard it pop again but this time i couldnt walk i had to stumble back to my room to get my cane. From what im reading if it continues to hurt i can go get a steroid injection but like my sciatic i rather manage it with stretches and exercise so if you also get this issue what helps it go away?

The following are statements about fandom competitions that all can, and should, coexist:
Cosplay competitions, dance competitions, etc. are not "rigged" AND
Competitions naturally benefit the participant with the greatest advantage and hence, by definition, will never be completely "fair"
The degree to which some participants structure their lives around their artistic pursuits surpasses the typical definition of a "hobby" AND
Competitions are not a complete or accurate representation of any hobby or artistic pursuit; considering them such tends to lead to perpetual dissatisfaction
Judges' opinions are often informed by significant relevant experience AND
Judgments are ultimately opinions with which you are allowed to agree or disagree at your leisure
It can be immensely frustrating when judges make judgments that you disagree with AND
Allowing yourself to experience that frustration, and then moving on from it, rather than trying to "correct" the judges or make a "callout," is generally the most productive reaction
It's healthy and natural to want to win/place/receive positive feedback AND
If any form of judgment is going to "make or break" your competition experience, it's wise to seriously reconsider whether competing in your current state is healthy and sustainable
Placements/wins/positive feedback are achievements worthy of celebration AND
Competition statistics are not an objective reflection of the quality or value of an artistic presentation
My 10+ years of experience (depending on the discipline) informs my opinion that the competition format hinges on subjectivity and serves primarily to draw an audience (utilizing the anticipation of "who will win???"), not to make objective judgments about any participants or their entries.
Please be cautious not to fall into the mindset that winning is the paramount aspect of competing. The amount of grief I've seen people experience over judges' opinions, and the number of people I've spoken to who say they've quit a competition scene entirely because of how elitist and cutthroat the environment was, is just heartbreaking.
I think a lot of work can be done to make fandom competitions more welcoming, inclusive, and accessible environments -- I've been in precious few communities like this both outside and within fandom, and I know we can do better.
I don't believe that centering that work on how judging is done is entirely wasted effort, due to the subjectivity of judging as a practice, I don't think that there's a single rubric, formula, or procedure that will make everyone happy. Instead, I think it's more worthwhile to highlight the community aspect of fandom competitions and focus on supporting one another and valuing each participant for their unique individual contributions to the artistic scene, not for their statistics.
Finally, I can ramble all day about what I think about the competition scene, but I really do believe that everything here, while informed by my experience, is still just opinion, and you're free to disagree.

my biggest beef with this fandom is how hard it is for them to praise jimin without always giving someone else credits for his hard work

How did you get into dancing? Do you recommend it to others? Are there certain types of people that should avoid dancing?
Long story short, 17 year old me stumbled upon the world of SW and outright decided I wanted to try stripping one day. At 20 I decided to say fuck it and go for it, moved halfway across the U.S. and went to an audition.
I don’t recommend it to anyone, but I also don’t say that they shouldn’t. I love dancing but the industry is fucking BRUTAL. I’ve watched good girls become felons from drug charges and a plethora of other things. It really depends on if you WANT to dance and if you have the skill set. There’s a massive skill set needed to dance, if you don’t have it or learn how to build it you won’t make anything.
Absolutely, In no particular order, if you have these you might want to reconsider:
(People with/who:)
Jealousy issues
Little to no self esteem
Money management problems
Past drug addiction issues
Past alcoholism
Addictive tendencies
Fear of rejection
Little to no stamina
Low pain tolerance
No rhythm
No variety in music taste
No social skills
Little concept of being seductive
No makeup skills
No hair skills
Can’t handle being touched
Don’t like being judged
Have bad hygiene skills
This is a small list of things you may want to consider going in. You have 100% certainty to be judged for your body, skin, teeth, hair, voice etc. You WILL need money management skills (send an ask if you want a list of mistakes and advice). And you absolutely cannot avoid being rejected, laughed at, touched in some cases, bruises, scraped, and in pain.
Thank you for the ask babydoll, ask box is still open always <3

Reminder kiddos, don't try to dance in combat boots (or any boots) because as it turns out having 1-2 lbs (1/2 - 1 kg) strapped to your foot slows you down a surprising amount.

there are days that it is hard, and unfair, and some horrible part of me wishes i could have been born in a different world. i love being queer, i hate how others react to it. when i first came out at 15, my mom whispered: please don't say that. your life would be so much harder.
it is harder.
it is also a tuesday, walking my dog. we are both skiving off of work, and yes both of us have dyed hair and pronouns. mine is patchy - it was my first time trying bleach; i didn't have enough. theirs is a resilient toadstool green. a little girl comes up to us and asks um, excuse me? is your hair real? 'cause jason says you're a fairy.
it is sunday brunch, all of us talking over each other, overfull on love. she is trying out a new name today, and we made her a cake with today's name scrawled in shaky purple letters. she laughs so much she cries and then gets frosting in her hair. someone young at a different table keeps giving us these large, wide eyes: the same look we have all been on the other side of. the kind that says, breathless: wait, is that possible?
it is a half-fight in a supermarket because he loves "dance moms" and says abby's tiktok is funny and meanwhile i think the children in that show should be allowed to sue abby lee miller for child abuse. i tell him that it led to the casual acceptance of child harassment for mainly adult views; and then i am standing, suddenly, in someone else's thrown soda. there's a white lady standing there, furious, saying something about hell-on-earth. i had forgotten i was wearing stuff with pride colors. and then it is this: he had just been casually arguing with me - and within an instant, he squares his shoulders and goes after her like i am his sister
on saturday i sat in a circle while beca played with my hair and we were all over 30 and we laughed about how much happier we are being this old, how much more we appreciate our community. 25 minutes from now, we will be on stage to dance in baggy beige clothing, but for now we look on with envy to the dancers in loud-and-bright buttondowns. where are they getting these shirts! i cry, distraught. everyone laughs. one of our friends has a mushroom witch hat. this would have been cringey in high school, probably. instead we are all delighted with each other; happy just to be here and alive and moving
it's that last week my new friends cried with joy for me when they heard i'm getting top surgery. every so often i have the honor of being the first person someone feels comfortable enough to tell. i'm trying to make long fluttery butterfly wings to wear to pride; but i don't know anything about fabric or dye, so my friends have been sending me their personal advice.
i think in a different poem i would talk about how sometimes you walk into a room and put the mask back on. but i'm sleepy and my whole brain is fuzzy so i think in this one, it's a monday, and my dog and i took a nap on a couch, and i had missed texts from friends. i used to wake up lonely. i think this poem is about walking into a room and seeing someone and just knowing, the way you just-know-sometimes, and then giving them that little smile, and seeing them light up with joy and relief. it is how we always seem to be able to find each other in a crowded room. how we always seem to make friends with each other before even we know-it-to-be-true. it is saying: we're very different people; but i belong to you.
it is harder, yes. but it comes with a built-in family.
