magfest 2020 

now done with - what an absolutely magnificent experience. i participated in a one-hour music battle, tried the bally astrocade, bought a dreamcast, and played lots of neon fm and pinball

also i hung out in the demoparty a lot! what a cool part of the con. i definitely wanna submit to the compo next year

also!!! the con was crackling with queer energy, from decorations to attendees to staff to panelists and panel topics, and i fuckin loved it

i can't wait to go back!!

not pictured: four buttons that are currently on the backpack i was using, and one of the shirts i got because i wore it and it's in the laundry hamper now
