Cosplayers at a Star Trek Convention, 1976

[foone]

in this house we have endless respect for cosplayers from the days before VCRs.

You couldn’t just rewatch the episode to look at all the details of the costume. You got lucky with press photos showing up in magazines or you just watched the episode/movie while sketching furiously

[silencedrowns]

thinking about that one woman who made a Star Wars flight suit in 1977 entirely from trading cards and sketching details in the theater. or stories I’ve heard about old school Trek cosplayers getting the bizarre seam placements right by photocopying magazines onto overhead transparencies and projecting them onto butcher paper.

I’m a semi old school cosplayer (started in 2001) so some of the old school techniques are still things I learned on (I’ve sketched from stuttering VHS tapes on pause and used the overhead transparency trick)… what we have access to now for costume recreation blows what they had out of the water just in terms of reference material, let alone specialty costume supplies like thermoplastics and cosplay wigs.

That Star Wars fan who made the flight suit from trading cards and movie sketches is TJ Burnside and she is still with us. In fact, I am adding to her Fanlore page with info about the flight suit (and how it went viral on Twitter and Redditt a few years back). Fanlore.org, is a fan run fandom history wiki. Stay tuned.

Her (sadly) barebones Fanlore page is here: https://fanlore.org/wiki/T.J._Burnside

The flight suit in question:

Please I'm freaking out now

Just in case I don't make it I called my doctor and said would there be another appointment for the provider for testosterone prescriptions. She said tomorrow would be the closest because the doctor won't be back in another 4 months or next year and I cried on phone because what the heck.

So I need enough to make a trip there tomorrow!!! I need my testosterone!! I'm in withdrawal and it's really taking a toll on my body and mental state.

So please help me make enough to get to my trip tomorrow so I can get my Testosterone or else I have to wait next year for it 😭

Paypal I need an estimate around $1000 to help!

printers behave like that because the medieval monks they put out of work are haunting them

[penandinkprincess]

when you're the crazy lady in a tinfoil hat at work because you have a reputation for not using ai and then you get to watch when the heavily-ai-built tool everyone was encouraged to put very important work on breaks and now they don't really know how to fix it or when it'll be operational again because they don't fully know how it was put together in the first place

[penandinkprincess]

a BIG problem has been found in another ai-built tool that's now going to have to be pulled and fixed as well

Immersive Widow’s Bay finale experience (watching it while in the middle of a severe thunderstorm with a tornado watch)

I think if we all try really hard we can make Patricia Widow’s Bay the next top shelf blorbo

FINALLY sopping wet tragedy of a woman

Widows bay spoilers below

I knew it. As soon as they introduced the fact that the decendants of Richard Warren needed to die to rid the island of its curse I knew the reveal was going to be Evan. Ruth as a red herring was a nice touch though

[classic-jorts]

widow's bay is like what if a nightvale sister city situated on the coast of new england was ran by the spiritual successor to the mayor from jaws but the tourism push was motivated by crushing paternal guilt and his podunk constituents (including his son) did not respect his authority even a little bit. and the show was a comedy
