-Tom Paris 13/50 epigraph!!
-
- * despite the fact that conventions are boring, I went to Fan Expo SF to reprise my Ens. Tilly cosplay with my Crea FX mask and hip pads—would it make a difference?
- * I was disappointed to learn that one-way glass isn't actually a real thing that you could use to make sunglasses out of; what exists are _half-silvered_ mirrors
- * the plot point about the mirror universe people being sensitive to light seemed _so dumb_, but it's actually the perfect premise for this costume!!
- * encountering the author of Transcat, the "first" transgender superhero, in the vendor hall; "whose appearance I will not describe"; the art looked bad; "There's so much I could say that doesn't fit in this context", then I added, "Probably not what you're thinking" "Oh no" said the author
- * got an autograph from Brent Spiner for $60; told him that I thought the forward to _Fan Fiction_ should have been more specific about which parts were based on a true story; he said, That's the point, you don't know what's real; I was reading it as a decent detective novel, and kept being like, No way this happened, and he asked which parts, and I said, the part where the bodyguard woman has an identical twin and you're dating both of them, and attack the killer
- * I gave my name as "Ens. Sylvia Tilly, U.S.S. Discovery"
- * autograph: "To Sylvia / A fine human!"
- * I don't think I fooled anyone—not up close
- * a woman in a Wonder Woman costume wanted a photo with me, rapport at the Star Trek meet; I feel like I got "Man Pearl Is Best Pearl" vibes?
- * I explained the mask choice to a fellow Star Trek Discovery cosplayer
- * wig was falling off at Star Trek meet
- * the photo up was assembly-line as expected, Spiner said, "Sylvia, right?"; COVID theater
- * I did get "ma'am'ed" on my way out
- * I was tired and wanted to go back to my hotel room and masturbate, but I decided to stop by the vendor hall and buy Transcat; I wrote "unremediatedgender.space" on a scrap of Moleskine paper, as I bought Vol. 1 (issue 1 $5 was sold out, and I said I'd take it for $25 when Vol. 1 was pointed out); I said I was disappointed that our Society has settled on a "trans women are women" narrative; author said there was more enthusiasm in 2016, but stopped going to conventions because of COVID, and public opinions seems colder now, and she's worried; I asked if she'd heard of the concept of autogynephilia, and she hadn't (!); I said I had some heterodox opinions, but that I had a blog, and handed her the slip (as if implicitly proposing a trade; I'm reading your stuff, you read mine?)
- * when the author asked my name, I hesisitated, sensing my discomfort, she asked, Who should I make it out to; I said, "Ens. Sylvia Tilly, U.S.S. Discovery"
- * masturbating in the hotel room; the mask with no wig; imagining being a butch lesbian with a shaved head
- * Transcat is really bad in the expected ways
- * a slight tear in the mouth of the mask, the nostrils look kind of ragged?
-
-Side life things to note—
- * need to be more careful with money because contract ending soon
- * memoir progress

-I had already used "Context Is For Queens" as the title of my Facebook photo album for 2018 Comic Con, so I went with "Crossfield Class"
